Swipe in from the left to get the method selection/method view menu.
Alternatively, tap the screen to bring down the top bar that contains the 'burger' menu in the top left (the method selection/method view menu), a drop down list of practice bells (including pairs of bells for hand bell ringers), and the context sensitive menu (three dots arranged vertically) that allows you to choose how Methodology represents the view you're in.
New to this version of Methodology: A brand new look and feel A new way to navigate around the app (may take some getting used to :) Pinch to zoom the blue line Enhanced hand bell support Screens are designed to work in landscape as well as portrait Highlight your bell in Method Player to help learn to hear it amongst all the others Bobs and singles slightly better calculated Methods such as Double Norwich Surprise now have a choice of what bobs and singles are used
"My Methods" should survive the update, but the Method Library is now much more accessible.
Don't forget, CCCBR names are sometimes not what you might expect - e.g. Plain Hunt is included, but is called "Original". This is not something that Methodology has any control over!
View methods with their Bobs and Singles, and practise your selected method with the method tutor and method player. Context sensitive settings allow you to select your practice bell, see extra changes before and after touches, and more!
Bobs and Singles are created using a fully automatic algorithm - errors/omissions are going to occur so point these out and they will be dealt with.
The entire Central Council of Church Bell Ringers method collection (for 4 to 12 bells) is included (December 2015). The method descriptions are included in heavily modified form. As such, the copyright notice is included below:

A must-have app for bell ringers. Really useful, with this app you can see the lines of all the bells properly without squinting into the book. Great for practicing on and learning the line.

For experienced ringers and newbies alike, this is an excellent app to learn method-ringing. There's also a comprehensive library of methods to explore and try out on the app before suggesting them on practice night!
★★★★★A Google user· Oct 18, 2012
Great app to help with learning methods, has blue lines, diagrams of bobs and singles, and a couple of different ways for you to rehearse ringing a method. Simple and effective. Tried on Nexus S and Galaxy Tab 2, no problems on either.
★★☆☆☆Christopher Barr· Jul 13, 2019
No updates for a long time - method player still less than useless given it can't ring round evenly... Love the app - great to have all that information at my fingertips. Only downside is the method player doesn't stay in time on my phone. I've got a brand new Samsung Galaxy Note 9, so I'm not expecting performance issues. It's a bit of a challenge to learn using the method player when the simulated bells can't strike evenly. That said, it is a bit more like ringing at a normal practice!

Doesn't work All you get on the new S5 is a blank screen with no menu or methods, totally useless!
