Crashes after buying add-on
Purchased the full version through the beginner app. But it keeps crashing
Free beginner version is pretty good.
Some features of full app are of course not available but you could spend quite a few hours here. Emphasis is on learning not on being flashy, which I appreciate. One minor complaint is that the beginner level dictation training uses intervals that are not included in interval training in this app but other free apps will give you that training. I would gladly pay a one time upgrade fee for the full app when I the only errors I make in the beginner app are typos. If the full app requires a monthly license fee then I would probably check out competing apps.

Better ear
Instead of playing angry birds or Pokémon go why don’t you play a game that actually has benefits with any instrument you play. Maybe you’re even a Whistler, don’t annoy people by whistling off key. Use better ear, we’ll all thank you.
No Airplay...
Incompatible with Airplay 2, which is the standard for a number of years now...
Pure sloppiness, as far as I'm concerned...

Training function insufficient
Firstly, I think this app isn't for a beginner, I think you need a fair grasp of ear training prior to using it.
The app works fine in testing the user, but the training function is pretty ordinary. It does nothing to help the user hear differences.
This was particularly evident in the perfect pitch section. As I don't have perfect pitch, the notes sounded higher or lower but I had no idea of the pitch. There was no training in pitch recognition. I don't one can learn perfect pitch.
The testing for scales doesn't allow the user to customise the number of scales being tested upon the user. I think starting with two scales would be better that four in the app at the beginner level.
There are better apps around.

There are far better apps
This is yet another pathetic attempt of trying to copy another app that has been far more successful.
Becoming a better musician.
Better Ears is a great help to help you train your ear which will make you a better musician.
Excellent app
Great app. Tge ability to add custom chords and scales is brilliant! The interface could be improved a bit (eg play new & repeat buttons are a bit small on the iPhone) but the functionality is fantastic
Also, please extend the interval range to include maj and minor 14ths and a double 8ve.

Excellent!
Well designed and well served for musicians of all levels.
I use this app almost every day now - first thing in the morning & last thing before going to sleep.
One thing missing - I believe - which is the option of playing the piano independently before entering the answers.
I believe playing the scale in question from memory will help serve the learning process better.
Finally, I bought this app using the link provided in the free version. Unfortunately I still see the free version app logo on my screen and other minor issues to GUI.
Finally, worth every penny.
