How it works
You already know how to practice. The hard part is knowing what to practice when there’s a recital next week, a gig tomorrow, and a few auditions on the horizon. You can't always get to everything. Practice Room Playbook helps you decide what matters today, in three steps.
Type them in or import a PDF rep list, then tag the performance each piece is for.
A quick 1–5 rating is enough to start. Add technical challenges and endurance demands as you go.
See what needs your attention first. Your priorities are listed in order and update as you log more practice.
Your full practice list, in order
Every piece gets a Practice Need score based on how ready it is, how long it's been since you practiced it, and how close its performance is. The pieces with the greatest need rise to the top of Today's Practice. As things change, your list changes with them.
Performance Readiness
Assign pieces to upcoming performances and watch your readiness change over time. As a performance gets closer, the app adjusts your priorities to help get everything performance-ready.
Balance over burnout
Filter by performance, practice group, piece type, technique focus, or doubling instrument. Set an Endurance Budget to manage physical load, or take a light day when you need one, setting aside the longest and most taxing pieces.
Built to get out of your way
Generate your Today's Practice list and use it for the day or the next few days. Come back when you're ready to reassess and make a new one. No need to open the app for every practice session, or even every day.
The practice log
Look back at what you practiced, the notes you left yourself, and how your assessments changed along the way. Add past practice when you need to and export your history anytime.
The bigger picture
Track how your readiness is trending, how consistently you're practicing, and where the same technical weak spots keep showing up across your repertoire.
A full history of what you practiced and when. Printable and exportable.
Tag pieces by instrument and use instrument filters to focus your practice.
Organize repertoire into A / B days or your own custom groups.
Built for desktop, mobile, or tablet.

FAQ
No. Practice Room Playbook is a web app that runs in your browser, so you can use it on your computer, phone, or tablet without installing anything.
It's a web app by design. Building for the web lets me push updates quickly and keeps costs low, which keeps the app affordable for you. A mobile app may come down the road, but only when it makes sense — I'm keeping a close eye on cost.
Each piece gets a Practice Need score based on how ready you've rated it, how long it's been since you practiced it, and how close its next performance is. The pieces that need you most rise to the top of Today's Practice. You can also flag a piece as a priority to keep it near the top.
No. The app is still useful if you only check in now and then. Logging a session and updating a rating sharpens your next list, but it doesn't need constant input to work.
