Erol Singer's Studio is a focused training tool rather than a karaoke app, and that suits beginners whose main goal is to sing in tune. The developer has built it since 2012 and describes lessons organized into progressive levels designed by an award-winning singer and vocal coach. Each exercise shows your pitch as you sing, and the lessons target common beginner mistakes such as poor breathing and letting the larynx rise. Advanced users can add their own patterns or song snippets in an optional exercise editor. The free download includes Beginner 1 and 2 and selected exercises from other levels, which is enough to judge whether the method works for you. Full access needs a subscription, and the US App Store lists All Access tiers at $1.99, $6.99 and $49.99 without stating which plan each one is, so we could not confirm a starting price. It runs on iPhone, iPad and Mac.

Who it is for

Beginners who want short daily exercises with precise pitch feedback and a structured level system.

Price

See vendor pricing (USD check pending); Beginner 1 and 2 are free.
