  1. The overview page like in the older Mac App is motivating. It shows my progress and the badges encourages me to keep on learning. Please include it in the app as well.

  2. I really hope the team can work on improving the current Mac App instead of changing to the iPad/iPhone App on Mac.

    Really love the Mac App and wish to carry on using it with improvement on it.

  3. Somehow I feel the view of the Interactive Sheet Music on the older Mac App looks better. The zooming function also better than the New App.

  4. I use a password manager and generate my passwords. It's much easier for me to log in when I can copy/paste my login info (especially my password), and the sign-in form on the app doesn't allow pasting via the ⌘-v keyboard shortcut.

  5. BPM cannot be input. Will be better if we can change the BPM by keying in the BPM we wanted.

    The BPM increment should be in ascending or descending order. The jump in number is too much.

  7. The recommended finger number setting is great with new feature to see the note names too. Would be great for the older Mac App to have this feature. Really like it. Still hope that we can change the finger number when we wanted because it is a personal preference.

  8. When I first installed and launched the Playground Sessions for Piano application the bottom of the window is cut off, it is not visible, and no scrollbars are available.

    On the initial Keyboard Setup screen there is a scrollbar and there is a LARGE amount of whitespace between the login fields and the Start Keyboard Setup button.

    Changing the window to be closer to a 4:3 aspect ratio on the Intro screens, there was not a height or width where the horizontal and vertical scrollbars were displayed. The vertical scrollbar covers up the close button in the top right of…

  9. I setup my volume controls in settings but when I play the Hanon Exercise, the Metronome is at 80% volume and I have to change it every time I want to start playing. Very troublesome. Hopefully the volume settings can stay as what I have setup in volume settings.

  10. MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019)
    2.4 Ghz 8-Core
    32 GB 2667 MHz DDR4 memory
    MacOS Catalina Version 10.15.6

    When I open up the PGS Beta App I get a “Playground Sessions for Piano quit unexpectedly” Warning Box

    https://pasteboard.co/GYfcYTAmKkhF.png

    The app doesn't actually quit. So I just close this box and use the app.
    But it happens every time I open the Beta App.

    I have all the text details from the “Problem Details and System Configuration” box if you want me to send those.

  11. I am using Mac Big Sur 11.6.4 On a number of lessons eg rookie, lines treble clef, there are 2 issues. The first issue is - after the treble clef there is an odd stand alone line. The second issue is - the notes are doubled where they should not be (this is not for a chord) for example where you play a G, it comes up as GG. I noticed this on a couple of lessons on intermediate too.

  12. The App need a "Dark Mode" setting.
    I know this can be very difficult to add, specially on the music sheets.
    But if you want us to spend long periods of time looking to a display with a white background, you should take in count that the blue light will cause symptoms of digital eyestrain.

    If we look to the competitor Melodics, this is not an issue.

  13. I'd like an option to reset all my statistics and previous progress to be able to start fresh after a long break. I currently have to keep a separate list outside the app to know where I'm up to as it shows lessons as completed that I completed a long time ago (and have long since forgot thus the need to start again).

  14. The carpets, the mirror, the room! I think you guys wanted a more home feel, but I prefer the old videos with the just white background. Maybe you guys can tone down the back ground in the videos.

  15. Should bring back the volume for the Reverb or wetness / dryness balance in the settings menu. Really helpful when you are practicing in a room with lots of reflections.

  16. Piano tone on held notes has no decay and should eventually fade out as opposed to sustained noise.

  17. MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2021), chip: Apple M1 Max, running Monterey. Please add an ability to upload files and include them in these reports. Just a "nice to have" in two of my previous reports.

  19. On Annie's Song, the beat of the music is correct, but the moving bar is operating at twice the speed. This seems to be happening in all lessons for this song. (MacBook Pro 2015, OS Catalina 10.15.7)
