Needs to be fixed right now! 😡😞😒☹️😣😖😟😔😫😭
This is a horrible app! It can’t hear my piano and I’m literally pressing my keys so hard! And I think that you should take it more slowly, like , I mean step by step. If you know what I mean. I know it has lots of songs, but literally like all of them are member only songs! I don’t know any songs provided and I can’t enjoy playing a song I don’t even know the lyrics too! I doubt that anyone will like this, no offense, but please just add more not member only songs in the song book! The only thing that is good is that the courses are free, unlike other piano apps (Simply Piano and Pianify e.g). Anyway my points are:
*the app can’t hear my piano
*more not member songs
*add more songs
So I hope you can do that. That’s all bye!

Love the concept but the technical glitches outweigh the benefits.
My 6 year old has been showing interest in our piano so I was really excited when I downloaded this on our iPad for him. However having used it a handful of times so far, each session has been cut short due to my child getting incredibly frustrated at the erratic performance of this app.
In general the notes aren’t always recognised and it often records notes as having been played when they haven’t at all despite doing the sound check test to tune in our iPad to the piano and there aren’t any other sounds in the room to interfere with it’s recognition. It’s now actually putting my son off playing so I’ll be teaching him myself instead until someone posts news of significant improvements to this.
I could understand there being certain limits to technological limitations but there are also major design flaws within the app itself too, for example in the Staff Grid Birds game the keyboard that is displayed at the bottom the screen covers the music score that you need to read to play the game rendering it unusable.
Sadly this wasn’t worth the money I paid to subscribe to this.

Creators please read
Overall this app is amazing and really helped my piano skills over a short period of time however the app marks me right even when I know it is completely wrong and same for the opposite. I really recommend this app to people who are dying to want to learn piano
BAD game
So I saw that this game was the game of the day so I wanted to download it plus I was looking for piano app’s because you might have read my Simpley Piano review where I pointed out 1 good thing and 4 bad things and I did my tip if you’re gonna download this app that you don’t wanna pay for it either way I’m going to do something like what I did for my simply piano review 1. there is no good thing bad stuff-1. right when I download it it automatically said download the free trial and I didn’t even let me look at a single song🤬2. this game said it was free but it actually isn’t🤬3.whenever I see ads for this app it says they’re free when they’re actually not😡Tip: if you’re gonna download this game like me I don’t wanna pay for it for it DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT suggestion: change this app now or this app will be bye-bye forever suggestion tip: make so songs free and others not. And I I’m Mad

Free
I think that we should be able to learn songs without playing so that people like me who want to learn them selfs can play songs the like from the music book can play them for free!
Piano academy/Simply Piano
I think this program is an absolutely wonderful app that can teach you how to play piano in an amazing way!! And I have the other app too as well , these apps are amazingly good to play piano and I have a piano teacher that can teach me piano. To me it’s basically saying that I have 3 apps now including my piano teacher! When I started piano, I learned a bit of my mum. Just middle C. Then I saw these fantastic apps and I asked my mum if she could get them for me and I have being playing piano for 1 year now. If I have kids I will teach them piano or keyboard and get them the app.

Very good but needs improvement
The lack of note recognition issue by the app is a real problem and discouraging to a learner. Another very important problem is that the app should allow in app purchases for the sheet music. It is difficult for a beginner or learner to follow the notes as they speed across the screen. Yes, there is the practice mode, but that still does not give you the opportunity to study the music and see the repetition of notes, etc. It also does not allow you to stop without having to start all over again. It’s very difficult and frustrating when you can’t keep up even at 50% speed. You should provide a low-cost purchase of sheet music. If you have the sheet music, you can see the patterns that you miss when the music just moves past you. Please consider providing sheet music. Also, the training sessions should discuss finger movements and shifting positions more. Otherwise the app has been a very good alternative for home study. I have researched all the apps I could find and none provide sheet music, so this would be an important method of distinguishing your product. I assume there may be copyright issues, but you can already purchase or download different versions of the pieces on-line. They have to be exact to work with the app though.

Please read!
Piano Academy is awesome 🤩! I just got started and at the beginning I was super exited to play and get better at my piano skills. After the lesson “ What’ next?” The app started acting all weird like when I was trying to play the notes it told me to play. The first note I had to play was middle C. It said I was hitting F witch I knew was absolutely not F. I can play now because I ran out of lives.
Here is my other problem. When the songbook became unlocked I scrolled and scrolled and scrolled and almost all of the songs were locked because I had to subscribe. I know that’s how you make money but I am just asking if you guys could unlock a couple more songs. And if you do, please make “Rise up by Andrea Day “ one of them because that is my favorite song and I got upset when I saw l had to subscribe.
Please fix this.😢

Thank you.
Before using this app I had zero musical knowledge but always thought how amazing to play the piano. Now I can, I may not be Elton John but I have amazed myself. Brilliant how easily this app helped me achieve this. Thanks to Jeff.
Massive tip, buy a lead from you IPad to the keyboard.
However, just one change for me please, can the slider bar at the top be changed so you can slide back a few bars in a tune, because there is always one part of a tune you just can’t master. You have to keep going back to the beginning again to still practice the few bars you are struggling with ?
Thank you. 🎹

Pls respond creator!
This app was working perfectly on the same keyboard yesterday and when I tried to play it today it said it didn't recognise the keyboard. I didn't change any settings or anything. Also, if you're not planning to pay for premium. Without it, you only get to play for 10 minutes per day! Also you can't play ANY songs without paying. Very disappointed. :(
