I can’t find any other apps similar that are free and I’m kinda disappointed now :( ### 3/5 — Great but need some additions *2021-05-19* This app is great for listening to a but sounds from music but it could use some additions for example some 8-bit forgotten drums I mean put percussion drums I’m sorry if I keep getting that wrong I am and also some other eight bit instruments that would be a great addition to this app all and I do have to agree with all the other agrees all the other reviews about the keys please add more keys thank you for this app ### 4/5 — One octave? *2021-05-19* My name is Kate and I play piano. I wanted to play a video game song on an 8-bit piano, so I downloaded this! It’s pretty great other than just having one octave. In the future I hope for another octave update! Thanks! ### 2/5 — Hopefully more to come... *2020-07-31* I downloaded this. Happy with the sound but that all there is. One sound. One octave. C to C. I really would like a choice between square and plus. Also if it could be used in GarageBand that would be a game changer. Hoping for more to come so I can improve my rating and review. ### 4/5 — Love the game but *2020-07-17* Love the game don't get me wrong but it doesn't have enough notes so i can only play small songs if you can change that I'd gladly appreciate it ### 2/5 — A bit small *2020-07-14, version 1.2* Not many keys, also it doesn’t fit on my screen ### 2/5 — Okay but could be much better *2018-10-21* I saw this app whilst browsing the App Store, my 8 bit music curiosity got the best of me and I got that. When I opened the app it crashed. After a few tries it worked and I was in. The piano did have the bit music like promised, but it had such a low variety of notes. The piano only let me use one low note scale. ### 4/5 — Not Too Shabby *2018-09-22* Works pretty well and like it’s supposed to. Only few issues with response and consistency but brings back nostalgic vibes. ### 4/5 — Great Idea! *2018-07-06* I’ve been looking for something like this for a while and it works really good. Some suggestions are that you definitely need more keys or a scroll option. And another idea is that you could have more sound effects from different video game eras. But all in all a very nice free app, just needs more to it. 👍 ### 4/5 — Simple enough *2018-06-03, version 1.2* Too bad the black keys are hard to hit without also hitting the keys next to it. ### 3/5 — The keys *2018-05-13* Look I get that we’re using mobile to use this but you seriously need to add more keys or just add a scroll option so you can get more keys cause it’s really bugging me that I can’t play my favorite songs with only a few keys. Thank you. ### 4/5 — Pretty good! *2017-08-20, version 1.2* It works great, But could use some more keys ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — this has bothered me since q1 2018 *2023-06-06, version 1.3* only one octave??? why??? ### 1/5 — Ridiculous *2022-01-18, version 1.2* One word: rubbish. Within minutes you will delete it ### 1/5 — Terrible *2020-05-12* It’s terrible. The only reason I got this app was to play cool 8-Bit songs but you can’t move the screen up the piano or down I don’t care if no-one agrees with me it’s just a opinion ### 1/5 — Not good for music making *2018-10-29* It is very bad for actual music making. It has no percussion(8-bit drums) and only has one octave of notes. For those who don’t know music, that means only form C to C. It doesn’t allow for recording of your songs either. It is just way too basic for it to be useful ### 1/5 — Garbage *2018-10-20, version 1.2* Doesn’t even work. I open the app. Crashes. ### 1/5 — So what am I supposed to do? *2018-09-23* If only the app wouldn’t crash... I’ve even turned off my phone and used the app suggestion in the home menu to open this app and it still crashes! I would really like to see how this app really runs. ### 1/5 — There is no sound *2018-09-18, version 1.2* Why is there no sound ### 1/5 — Gay *2018-08-03, version 1.2* It won’t even let me start the game I press it and it crashes ### 1/5 — Can’t hear anything *2018-06-29, version 1.2* I am sorry but when I used this app I heard nothing I was just pressing keys and nothing happened sorry ### 1/5 — CRASHES *2017-01-01, version 1.2* Crashes on launch. Don't waste your time and/or storage on this ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Does what it says on the tin *2021-08-12, version 1.2* A nice, small n simple, free, colourful, 8-bit keyboard. What more could you want?! ### 5/5 — Fun to play :D *2021-07-28, version 1.2* :D ### 5/5 — 8bit piano *2021-07-19* I can’t delete this ### 5/5 — 2 STARS WHAT THE?!? *2021-05-27* This game is great for making music and I don’t really see anything worth hating on ### 5/5 — Very Good App *2020-07-06, version 1.2* It’s great for making Music! Just made my first piece. It’s an 8 Bit Remix of The Piggy Theme! I’m just about to upload it on my YouTube Channel. (Channel is called “Memorie__”) ### 5/5 — Good *2020-05-18* It’s a decent simple app I can’t believe how many people are saying it’s bad ### 5/5 — Pretty cool! *2018-07-14* I’m not sure why everyone is saying it crashes because it doesn’t for me. Is it because I have a iPhone 8? ### 5/5 — Don’t listen to the haters *2018-01-31* Don’t listen to the haters they just don’t know how to get around there problems like me for instance every time I go to open the app it crashes but then I close my phone go to Siris suggestions open the app in there and it works. What I am saying is there is a lot of people out there who this app so keep it going. I’d like to see this make it. 👍 ### 5/5 — Fun to play with! *2015-09-10, version 1.2* Simple and fun! ### 5/5 — Get it!! *2015-09-01, version 1.2* This is an awesome piano an I will definitely use it a lot! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
