♩ WHY ARE SCALES IMPORTANT? ♩
Practicing scales is actually the fastest way to improve intonation and violin technique. It's the most basic and important aspect violin practice, but so often a lot of students (even tutors!) neglect or shy away from scales, as it is too boring and difficult to learn, as we don't have a proper guidance or sound reference to base our practice on.

However, we need to consider the greatest difficulty of playing string instruments lies on the importance of playing all the notes in-tune. With proper guidance and consistent practice of scales, player will subconsciously develop ‘muscle memory’ to the position their finger correctly on every note on the fingerboard. Player will also be able to discern intonation more easily as the player constantly corrects their intonation to make it sound more accurate.

Without a good sound reference, students (amateur violinists) often end up learning imprecise pitch of the notes, which over time, could further worsen their pitch hearing and hinder their playing ability. Hence, it is crucial to establish a solid foundation at the early stages of violin playing, to ensure good intonation as they progress.

Even if you aren't sitting exams, this app is useful to practice your scales either between your lessons or if you are self-taught. Probably not great for learning the scales to begin with, more of a practice tool to get your speed and accuracy up.

A beautiful app but does not work. You press the button for the grade and there is no content there. There was at the beginning and now it's all disappeared. :-(

Missing two key ingredients and one ingredient is wrong. 1. The tempo cannot be adjusted below 30 bpm. 2. The base note of each scale/arpeggio is not sounded during repeats - it is just a blank space instead of hearing the tone. 3. Screen does not rotate with the device - it always remains in a vertical display. Hard to view and use this way. Using this on a brand new Samsung Tab S2. This is the only app I've ever paid for, and now I know why I stick to the freebies - the stuff you pay for is no better, and in this case worse, than the free apps. Super disappointed. Actually, kind of angry.
