Build Recommendations

Prioritized actions based on user demand and market opportunity.

Build accurate touch detection with correct string positioning (E string on right)

46% of complaints about wrong note triggering and 23% about reversed strings - fixing this core issue immediately differentiates from Violin Real

Implement reliable, sustained audio playback without cutouts

38% of reviews cite audio interruptions as deal-breaker; robust audio engine is table stakes for usability

Target experienced violinists needing practice tool, not beginners learning violin

Multiple multi-year violinists reviewed this app; they need practice aid when away from instrument, not a learning platform

Make it easier than real violin for casual use, not harder

23% say it's harder than real instrument - simplified interface for quick practice sessions is the core value proposition

Include popular beginner songs (Mary Had a Little Lamb, etc.) with visual guidance

Users specifically mention struggling to play basic songs; song library with note guidance bridges gap between toy and tool
