“The Singer Takes It All” Tops UK FREE iOS Chart

Despite admittedly appearing to struggle during the live broadcast of Channel 4′s brand new talent search, last night, the official app of The Singer Takes It All [1] has topped the UK’s FREE iOS Chart â€" this weekend.

For those not familiar with the show:

The Singer Takes It All is a new, completely interactive singing gameshow where all of the action is controlled by you. Watch performances in the app to choose who gets on TV. Record your own performance and upload it to compete to get on the show. Then watch the show and vote live, to determine the winner!

According to Channel 4, viewers placed over 2 Million votes during the show’s debut airing, on Friday, in order to see their favourite singers enter the safety of the ‘Gold Zone,’ and have a shot at winning the show’s jackpot: £15,000.

But those using the app reportedly had a less than stellar time trying to get it to work as advertised, with Channel 4′s Alan Carr [3] having to announce twice (on air) that the app was playing up, at the same time joking that the show’s producers had gathered a team of independent adductors in a rusty old skip out back â€" in case of these exact situations.

Visit the Recording Studio section of the app and choose your favourite song from our massive catalogue â€" everything from ABBA to Adele, Beyoncé to Bob Marley. Then follow the lyrics, as you sing and record your video audition straight into the app.

Nevertheless, the issues don’t appear to have put wannabe singers off from continuing to upload a deluge of random audition tapes to be judged, in the hopes that they too will be voted up by the public and selected to partake in next week’s live show.

If you haven’t already, you can download The Singer Takes It All [4] for FREE on the App Store. The app supports both Apple’s iPhone and iPad, universally.

The show’s second episode will air on Friday, August 8 at 9PM.
