Almost perfect, ad trick is annoying – Conga Drums Review

If I consider everything I used to gauge (below) this is the best app in its class on both the iPhone and iPad. (* variable = center, outer edge, rim) • User interface. 4 • Sound quality. 5 • Sound realism. 4 • Variable sound 3 • Hotspot target. 1 • Effects (reverb etc) 4 • Ads (free version). 1 The trick with the timing of ads flying in so you can't help but click on it is just evil and wrong and super irritating. The intent is to make me cough up the money, but it actually makes me want to NOT pay because I'm so irked. The next non-starter is hotspot targets and the ease of hitting them accurately. There should be some buffer between target ranges and the center should be larger in diameter. Other than those gripes this app is a blast and sounds amazing (better if you have smaller fingers!) Digging the multiple layout combos, nice bonus! There could be s few apps that are tied with this one. It's confusing because several other apps have almost the exact same UI - so either there's s sample app somewhere everyone stared with, or one developer is selling the same app, just renamed and re-skinned as 3-4 different apps. Very evident in the settings UI. Duh. Anyway, hope to see the next version with enough polish to make it worth buying, and giving it the 5 stars it's capable of earning! Lol :)
