Getting started

From download to your first practice session, this takes about two minutes.

1

Download Mewstro

Search for “Mewstro” on the App Store, or tap the download button on mewstro.com.

2

Create your account

Open the app and you'll see the sign-in screen. You've got three options:

  • Sign in with Apple, the fastest option, one tap
  • Sign in with Google, uses your Google account
  • Email and password, enter any email address

Pick whichever you prefer, they all work the same way once you're in.

3

Choose your instrument

Mewstro asks which instrument you play. Pick your main one, and you can always add more later in Settings. Free accounts get one instrument, and Premium has no limit.

4

Enter an invite code (if your teacher gave you one)

If your music teacher uses Mewstro, they'll give you an invite code. Tap “I have an invite code” and paste it in. This unlocks everything, the full app plus your teacher's studio leaderboard, covered by your teacher's subscription.

No code, no worries. Just tap “Skip” and every feature is yours for your first 30 days, no card needed. After that you carry on with the Free tier, or keep everything with Premium any time.

Join your teacher's studio. It plays from YouTube when you press play, or watch it there.
5

Start your first session

You're in. Tap the big Start button on the Practice tab, and the timer starts running. Pick what you're working on, scales, sight-reading, repertoire, or whatever fits. When you're done, tap Stop and Mewstro saves the session.

That's it. You've logged your first practice. Mewstro the cat will celebrate with you.

Set a goal when you're ready

Working towards a piece or a grade exam? Set a goal with a date and Mewstro lays out the weeks, with this week's focus at the top. If you're in a studio, your teacher can set one for you too.
