Leider funktioniert dies auf der AppleWatch gar nicht mehr. (Auch nach neu Installation) Somit ist diese App genau so gut/schlecht wie die kostenlosen im Store. 5 * sobald die Funktionen und Einstellungen auf der Watch wieder funktionieren. ### 5/5 — Stabil *2022-10-17* Gute App. Benutze sie grundsätzlich um Noten noch schneller zu lesen. Hat was. ### 5/5 — Finde keine Soundfonts *2022-01-30* Und es gibt keine Anleitung wo man die findet und welches Dateiformat, bräuchte Posaune ### 2/5 — Can’t adjust difficulty on Apple Watch. Crashes. *2021-11-12* Can’t adjust difficulty ### 4/5 — Klaviatur fehlt *2020-10-15* Grundsätzlich eine super App, wenn die Option da wäre auf einer Klaviatur die Töne zu wählen, dann wären fünf Sterne sicher. ### 5/5 — Exakt was ich gesucht habe! *2020-07-18* Zum Noten (wiederer-)lernen ideal. Es spornt an immer besser zu werden. Noch cooler wäre, wenn man auch noch Lieder hätte, anhand derer man üben könnte. Aber auch so macht es Spaß und zeigt Erfolge schnell auf. ### 3/5 — Ganz gut aber das Lernen Tab... *2020-07-14* Die App gefällt mir gut, man hat einen Timer und bekommt nach dem Test eine Statistik angezeigt. Es gibt verschiedene Schwierigkeitsgrade und Tonarten. 👍 Was ich etwas peinlich finde, ist, dass man beim Lernen Tab einfach die WikiHow Seite zum Notenlesen-lernen öffnet, das hätten sie ja wenigstens abtippen können. ### 1/5 — Langweilig *2020-03-29* Es gibt so schöne motivierende Apps. Dies ist keine davon. Schade! ### 5/5 — Spielerisch lernen - super schnell und überall *2020-02-24* Macht Spaß, geht schnell - nicht nur die Einheiten sondern auch die Lernerfolge. Ich hätte jetzt gern noch einen Cello Sound. Ich finde die App topp! ## Frequently asked questions about B Flat ### What is B Flat used for?
