I"m frustrated. I have a shoulder injury from a flu shot and I try to practice guitar every day anyway. HOWEVER. I get lost sometimes and the program says to check the sound or lower the accompaniment because it can't hear me. This makes me more frustrated and I can't find my place. I'd like to be able to turn it off. Sometimes I just want to TRY to play at tempo even when I know I probably can't. I don't need the distraction of a banner telling me it can't hear me play when I am frantically trying to find a note where I can jump in.

Thanks.

As a parent with two children using Yousician, it would be great to have a way for my wife and I to receive periodic emails (weekly/monthly) detailing their progress. Ideally the progress reports would be more than a simple sharing of the level completion certificates, although that would be a good start (and no doubt an easy win for the dev team to simply add multiple notification email addresses to user accounts). But it would be great to have additional information contained within the reports such as: number of times used, summary of completed activities, points scored, total time spent, average time spent per session, etc, etc. Either separately per child or ideally as single email reporting on all family members.

Whilst I’m sure that many families would welcome this sort of functionality, I imagine it’d be even more attractive to private music teachers and schools/colleges, who may need to track much larger groups of Yousicians.

A Parent/Teacher account that could be linked to (and perhaps have some management control over) standard student accounts would be awesome. Other e-learning platforms do this well.

Whilst family/student group leaderboards would be great, if you were able to extend the gamification of Yousician with additional achievement rewards (trophies, badges, unlockable content, etc) it could provide a platform for the Parent/Teacher to be able to set challenges (with associated rewards) within the family/student group to incentivise progress. I’ve seen these motivational techniques work very well in (what are typically competitive) group learning settings.

And of course family/multi-user pricing options are very likely to be warmly welcomed by the Yousician community. I'm sure it would drive new sales in educational settings.

A big thank you to all the team for their great work.
