Why can’t I get my recordings to sync?
Learning the sync system can take some practice. Each sync adjustment is 10 (small button) or 20 (large button) milliseconds, so it’s a very small adjustment. This allows for very fine control of sync, but it does mean it will take some time to find your general sync range. We recommend starting off by going -20 to -60 at a time until you get close then you can adjust in smaller increments until you find the sync. Many people will have a sync of -150 or greater, and the system will start you out at -150 as a baseline.
One problem we've heard about is what we call "sync chasing". The options we have to replace the old Flash Player based mixer have some unfortunate limitations. The main one is that we cannot give you as accurate a preview as before. The preview can vary by about 10-20 milliseconds. This can cause you to get into a sync chasing loop. To avoid this we recommend adjusting until you feel the sync is very close. Even if it's not perfect go ahead and save the recording. If needed you can then go back and remix to adjust and fine tune. This will prevent you from getting into a sync chasing scenario where you never find the right sync due to the preview variance.
What can I do with SingSnap Credits?
SingSnap Credits can be used in various ways and we plan to add more options in the future! See how you can currently use credits below.
Snapicons
Snapicons are a great way to show someone you care and let them know you're thinking of them. There are various types of icons that each have a special meaning that you can gift. Each Snapicon costs 100 SingSnap Credits and is active for 7 days. They can be purchased from the SingSnap Store --> Snapicons page. You can also send Snapicons from the "Send A Gift" button located on a members Recording Page or their profile!
$nap! Credits to a Member
Sending a $nap! is a great way to show some love. You can give another member SingSnap Credits from your available balance as a token of appreciation for a great sing, for a special day, or simply just because. The recipient can then use those credits to purchase items. We like to think of it as "Sharing is Caring". You can give someone a $nap! directly from their recording page or from their profile page. From their profile click on the yellow outlined SingSnap logo next to their username or from a recording click on the "Snap A Tip" button!
Purchase Promotional Items
Promotional items like colored usernames and trinkets are a great way to spread some love on SingSnap. They are a fun and meaningful way to show someone you're thinking of them and spread cheer. You can use SingSnap Credits to purchase items from the monthly promotion on the SingSnap Store --> Promotions page. Simply choose an item, the package level you want, and during checkout you'll have the option to use SingSnap Credits as your payment method.
Throw Roses On Recordings
Throwing a rose is a great way to let someone know you enjoyed their singing and/or performance on a recording. They can be thrown at specific times during playback to let everyone know what part you enjoyed the most. When listening to a recording you can click on the Rose icon in the player to throw a rose for 25 SingSnap Credits. Click here for more information on Roses

Why does the review stop each time I adjust the sync?
To achieve the most accurate preview possible the review player needs to restart after each sync change. You can click on the sync button multiple times to apply larger values at once. You do not need to start playback after each individual press of the sync buttons. To help make syncing easier you can use the spacebar of your keyboard to start playback after a sync change.

Why did my last subscription payment fail, and what do I need to do?
If your auto-renewing subscription payment failed it could be that you've received a new card and your billing information needs to be updated or your bank may have declined the transaction for some other reason.
If you've received a new card recently you simply need to cancel your existing subscription and start a new subscription with your new card. See our Help tab FAQs for cancellation instructions.
If you haven't received a new card recently you may need to contact your bank and check on the declined transaction. If paying through PayPal you may need to check with PayPal customer support.
Our system will attempt to bill for a failed subscription payment three times, each try about 3 days apart. If all three attempts fail the subscription will be canceled. If that happens you simply need to start a new subscription to continue with Gold membership.
