- Can I use Play Along without an account?
- Yes. Everything runs in your browser via Web Audio. Your favorites and progress save to localStorage on your device only, no server account needed. If you want sync across devices later, you can create a free account, but it's optional.
- Why doesn't sound work on iPhone?
- iOS requires a user tap before any audio plays, a Safari security policy. Tap the Play button (or anywhere on the page) once and the audio context unlocks. If you switch tabs or your screen locks, you may need to tap again. We also route audio on the media channel so it respects your ringer and silent switch the way you'd expect.
- What's the difference between Play Along and Practice?
- Play Along loops a chord progression with a full backing track so you can improvise over real changes. Practice mode is for drilling specific patterns (scales, intervals, arpeggios) without a progression. Most guitarists use both: Practice to build mechanics, Play Along to apply them musically.
