Instrumentive User Guide

Settings & Account

You can access settings from the main app menu.

Weekly practice target

Set your weekly target for sessions or practice time. This drives the streak counter on the home screen.

Timer and sounds

Choose your preferred timer sounds and metronome click sounds.

Display

Enable dark mode for comfortable practice in low light, and turn on keep screen unlocked so the app stays visible while you play.

Family profiles

If more than one person in your household uses Instrumentive, you can set up separate profiles so everyone’s practice data stays separate.

Sync and backup

Your data is automatically synced to the cloud when you are signed in. This means your practice log is safe even if you lose your device, and it stays in sync across multiple devices.

Managing your subscription

You can manage your subscription through the Google Play or Apple App Store. In Instrumentive, go to Account in the main app menu — you will see a button to manage your subscription which links to the correct store.


FAQs

Where can I get more help?

If you need help or have a feature request, contact us at [email protected].

Can I schedule in a future session?

Sure, when you add a session you can tap on the date at the top to change it. You can add future dates as well as past ones.

Can I manually input a practice time instead of using the timer?

You should see a pencil icon next to the practice timer. Tap on this to manually input a time.

How do I delete practice sessions/pieces/recordings?

You can swipe left or right to delete an individual item from the app. If you want to delete lots of items, long-press on one to bring up the delete action mode. You can then highlight everything you want to delete.

How do I cancel my subscription?

Follow the link from Account to your app store, as described in Managing your subscription, then choose the cancellation option there.

I have purchased the pro version of the app. Will this work on my other devices?

When you purchase an app it is linked to your (Google Play or Apple App Store) account. As long as your other devices are logged into the same account, your paid licence will automatically transfer across. Note, however, that your licence won’t transfer between Android and iOS as they are separate apps on the two different stores (Google Play and Apple App Store).

How do I use the metronome?

The metronome is available from within any practice session. Open a session, add or select an activity, and you will see the metronome controls on the session activity screen. See the Practice Sessions In Depth section for full details.

Can I export my practice data?

Yes! You can export your data as a PDF summary or as a CSV file for use in spreadsheets. See the Tracking Your Progress section for more details.
