Acapella from PicPlayPost

I have been using this app since early high school or so. So it's been about a good seven years or more. There's still not really an equivalent to creating easy video vocal arrangements online. Otherwise, I would have to use premiere or after effects, and I honestly cannot be bothered. Aside from small fixes that I would like to see in the app--perhaps and editing feature in case you mess up apart of the performance; this app has been having quite a few bugs lately. Not to mention, it feels like a ghost town when it comes to overall updates. I haven't been able to login for months, for no apparent reason ("service unavailable"). The song recommendations on the side, if you choose to record alongside audio, are all hits from almost ten years ago--"Uptown Funk" by Bruno Mars, "Hello" by Adele, a track by Pentatonix that came out that time, some Ed Sheeran song. LOL This would be tolerable if the app didn't have the audacity to request MONEY for simple things like longer recordings. I still want to use this app, since as mentioned earlier, there's really no app comparison; but there's some changes to be made.

The app cost arrangement has changed. There was a paid down load version, and free down load version. What I’ve paid for a year is a lot for an app, as a church musician. But, now what do I do with the choir members . . . Free TRIAL version now, then they’ll have to pay. And I will lose people because it won’t be worth the money for them, or they can’t afford it, especially if we don’t know if it’ll work for us yet. This is a developer who is now taking advantage of a situation where volunteer groups are just wanting to make music together during this COVID situation . . . until they can come together again. These aren’t professional musicians, they just want to gather a few moments in voice. Congratulations for ruining a decent thing. I don’t mind paying for fair price/service . . . But this is price gouging. Then, there are no directions. You just have to figure it out. We’re all ‘collaborators’ now . . . New jargon . . . With no hints how to proceed . . . Man. I have to use this for now, I’ve paid for it . . . I hope you fill your coffers to the brim . . . You know musicians have no money at this time. Have a good day.

I have used Acapella over the last 1 1/2 years and it’s allowed me to effortlessly collaborate with friends around the globe. When people hear the collaborations they’re amazed and often ask how it’s done. When I tell them about the app they either purchase it on the spot, or they complain that it cost money. Seriously? For less than one dinner out, this app allows you to record with people anywhere in the world. Acapella has been a hugely instrumental to me and I would recommend it for so many reasons. Whether you are your own band or Acapella singer and want to record multiple tracks, or you are looking for a way to collaborate with friends, it’s a great platform. I would give it 10 stars if they were available for ease of use, quality of product and fun factors! Thank you Acapella! You make the world a brighter place!
