  • Poor instructions

    I can’t get this app to work. I bought the counterpoint module, but I can’t input any notes. The instructions say “select the note/rest you want, then place it on the stave” but how do I do that? Select it from where? There is only an icon with a quarter note and rest at the bottom of the page, and touching that and then touching the stave has no effect. I’ve looked for a YouTube video of some demonstrating the note I put on an iPad but I can’t find anything.

  • Please Update for IPad 10th Generation

    I loved this app on my older iPad Air. I have an iPad 10th generation now. Please update this app so I can download it on my iPad 10th generation tablet. I appreciated being able to practice counterpoint. Thank you.
  • Useful app but interface could be improved

    There's a lot in this app.

    I have focused on the ear training apps.

    As someone with stubborn ears, I particularly welcome the inclusion of the pitch pattern exercise which plays you endless simple 'melodies' in c major ; and the pitch errors were you are asked to spot wrong notes in short melodies.

    Throughout the generated melodies sound more like music than random pitches other apps I know tend to produce. For me this is really helpful.

    Using the exercises can be a bit awkward- menus pop up in sometimes awkward places; there can be a lot of clicks and longer than necessary finger movements required, and selecting and deselecting can be awkward. For interval training there are easier things out there to use for free.

    Some of the exercises would benefit from more options - eg if you are learning a new clef you can't focus in on a group of ledger lines but get thrown into all at once - ok for revision but not for new learners.

    The midi connection is helpful.

    But overall I am getting a lot of use out of it.
