Situation:
You are in band practice. You see an odd note that you haven't played before. You don't know how to play it.
Answer:
You get out your brass notes app and quickly check without the conductor even noticing! Someone else asking what that note is? Tell them! At home practicing and unsure what it is? Don't look it up on the internet or a book, just take out your Brass Notes app!

### 3/5 — Brass

*2025-07-29, version 2.0.0*

I think it’s a nice straightforward app but it would be better if you could hear the notes

### 5/5 — Cool app

*2023-10-21, version 2.0.0*

I’m really enjoying this app

### 2/5 — Not that good

*2022-04-29, version 2.0.0*

It does not teacher you stuff and just shows you the notes and how to play them but it does not tell you if you are playing to wrong or right.

### 4/5 — Pretty great!

*2020-09-04, version 2.0.0*

I play a LOT of brass instruments. The only reason why I didn’t put 5 stars what that I wish there were more higher notes for the French Horn :(  otherwise super great app and I totally recommend!!

### 5/5 — This app allowed me to keep playing my insturment

*2019-06-21, version 2.0.0*

I just wanted to say this app helped me so much. In a very real way it allowed me to continue my music passion. I play trumpet pretty badly, and I could never get into the upper register. The book I had only had one fingering for each note, and I could never hit it. After looking on the app, however, I used a different fingering, and can now with a lot less difficulty hit the notes I need to. I just wanted to thank the creators so much, and while much of this is more me than other customers, I just really wanted to say thank you.

### 2/5 — Not a tuning app!

*2019-06-16, version 2.0.0*

I type up tuning for trumpet and this is what a got!!i think it is a bit of a scam I won’t recommend this to any of my friends!

### 3/5 — Needs different pitched instruments

*2019-06-04, version 2.0.0*

Maybe add, CC tuba, Eb Tuba, F tuba. And 5th and 6th finger attachments. And F/Gb attachments for the trombone

### 5/5 — Needs better range in the French horn

*2019-06-03, version 2.0.0*

The French Horn only has about an octave and a half of range on the app, but it’s actual range is four octaves. Also, the notes are all in single b flat horn, as opposed to double horn. Everything else is pretty cool though and whatnot

### 4/5 — Good but could be better

*2019-06-03, version 2.0.0*

Love the idea but there could be an amazing app built out of this if the idea is taken a little further. Three things that it needs to be super helpful to all brass players worldwide:
1. Add euphonium, bass trombone, etc for more instrumentation to meet the title “Brass Notes” to go across every common brass instrument.
2. Transposing would be wonderful. Like if I play trumpet and want to help my younger trombone player hear pitches, it would be nice to select trombone notes and see trumpet fingerings. Just makes it much more flexible. 
3. I play trombone. And you need to add the trigger notes because there are some low notes that you cannot reach without a trigger which makes some of the positions you give false. 
All in all wonderful app but with updates it will be perfect!

### 3/5 — More instruments

*2019-06-03, version 2.0.0*

Could you make this for clarinet as well?
