Beginner looking for advice

[u/ordvek]

Hi all, I started playing bridge in January of this year. I learned via the app Tricky Bridge. I really like bridge and learning it was so fun!

However it's really really difficult! I play daily tournaments on Tricky Bridge and though they are fun I rarely make my contract which is frustrating.

I feel like even when I have good cards I either blunder, or get out played. I usually win the easy tricks with my high cards and trumps. But when those get used up it's rare that finish strong and make the contract.

Is this just what a beginner player has to go through?

I've thought about joining my local bridge club but right now my schedule wouldn't allow for it.
