Guided tour A short walkthrough now shows what each part of the screen does, so your first session makes sense from the start. 12 languages The app is available in English, Russian, German, Spanish, French, Arabic, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil) and Ukrainian. You can change the language any time in Settings. Cooler, lighter on battery A round of performance work. The sound engine is no longer rebuilt every time you add a note, audio now sleeps while the app is in the background, and screens sitting idle do no work at all. Long sessions should keep your device noticeably cooler. Fixes • Repeats: the score no longer showed the wrong bars while playback repeated a section. • Tuner: now uses about half the processing power it did before.
