The family view is made for proud reading along, not for control. By design it shows no red, no lists of mistakes and no bare percentage tables — only the calm trace of how your child is getting on. The frame for it is a single sentence:
Your family device sees: practice days, ♩ ratings, tricky spots — never your pieces, never recordings.
Gets
- Practice days — whether anything at all was practised that day
- ♩ ratings — how the last pieces sounded, rounded to the ♩ scale
- up to 3 sticking points — only as an axis + bar number (e.g. "Rhythm, bar 12")
Never
- your sheet music, MusicXML or own pieces
- recordings or a microphone signal
- an exercise or piece title as its own field — only a technical identifier
- the email address — sits, if linked at all, separately encrypted
♩ instead of bare percentages
Instead of "78%", your family device shows the last pieces as a ♩ rating — the same calm scale your child sees in their own practice book. A piece your child imported themselves appears only as "own piece", never with its real name: the title sits structurally outside what the device shares.
At most once an hour
Your device receives a daily summary, at most once an hour. If nothing happened on a given day, simply nothing is shared for that day — there's no live tracking and no notification while your child is playing.
See only, step in never
The family connection is one-way, for reading. You can't set homework or practice spots for your child through it — deliberately so, so that following along never becomes remote control. You talk about practising at the piano, not through the app.
Disconnecting deletes the shared data
When you end the connection, the shared practice data disappears from the family view and is deleted on the server. Everything that matters — pieces, plans, results — lives only on your child's device anyway and stays untouched there.
For parents
Without your child tapping "Allow connection", technically nothing is sent at all. The consent gate is the only place that can start the reading along at all — following along begins with a yes, not with a setting on your side.
