- Loop the bars that keep going wrong. The app's per-bar feedback shows exactly where they are, so you don't waste time on the bars you already know.
- Move up the play-along speeds in steps, 50% then 75% then 100%, only when a section is clean at the current speed.
- Short daily sessions beat one long weekly one. Ten focused minutes a day is enough to make steady progress.
