The app offers the opportunity to experience the diverse richness of the national instrument of Trinidad and Tobago and the only percussive instrument created in the 20th century. In addition to which, it acts as a teaching aid by increasing the capabilities of users which adds to the potential of obtaining different opportunities.

Currently the app does not even work on my Samsung Galaxy. And I paid for it! It used to work and the sounds are great bot the rotation "improvement" makes the notes too small to play like the original app. And believe me, I know what I'm talking about because I have two real pans at home. So I am quite sad about the smaller playing surface, especially for the higher octave and the fact that the app will no longer even work. What's up with this?

This is a very useful app for a learner, it means I can practise between classes. There are one or two little niggles with the way it works but I am getting used to it and like it a lot.

I've used this app on an iPad with no problems, but the Android version hangs on a black screen for ages on start-up. I hope that will be fixed soon.

The improvement in this version over the last where the orientation of the pans is customisable makes all the difference. When navigating out of help the menu should return to the instrument being used as well. Also it needs the roll mode vs staccato mode.Finally the pop up asking to rate this app doesn't stop appearing even after app is rated
