Mas ainda com falha no avanço de exercício. *2025-11-28* O App é excelente. Mas infelizmente está com uma falha de não continuidade no avanço do exercício, impedindo a conferência dos resultados no final. ### 3/5 — Stop les vannes à 2 balles s’il vous plaît *2025-11-08* Même si c’est de l’humour c’est un peu saoulant de se prendre des vannes et se faire traiter de nul quand on finit un exercice sachant que c’est des exercices qui ne sont pas super facile quand on débute entre la compréhension théorique des règles de l’harmonie et que l’oreille a besoin d’entraînement pour réussir à 100% les exercices. L’appli est pas mal sinon mais se faire vanner de manière rabaissante quand on ne réussi pas à 100% l’exercice même si c’est pour rire , franchement bof . Vous avez réussi à me saouler avec vos tacles et vos pubs obligé de se coltiner après chaque exercice. « musiciens de maman » , « c’est nul » enfaite c’est pas stimulant de se taper ça suivie d’une pub relou qui t’oblige à attendre ! Faut vraiment avoir une bonne raison de faire du Ear training parce que sinon c’est pas très ludique. Même si l’appli est bien utile pour travailler l’oreille et aussi la mémorisation des intervalles et des gammes sur la deuxième appli que je viens d’essayer. Pourquoi cette ambiance condescendante est aussi présente dans le milieu de la musique même sur les applis maintenant?..Je vois pas où est ce que c’est fun ou utile d’avoir mis ces commentaires en fin d’exercice quand tu l’as pas réussi à 100% et que tu ne l’as pas non plus raté à 100%. ### 3/5 — Great features and even free, yet a bit buggy *2025-08-20* I appreciate that the app is free and find the features quite useful. However, in scale learning mode it crashes sometimes, also in other modes, but more seldomly. It would be great if the app would be more robust. ### 3/5 — Error *2025-04-24* The app is very good, but there is a problem, I don’t why, but it closes out of nowhere. ### 4/5 — Pas mal *2025-03-30* Interface agréable, très paramétrable, parfait pour s’entraîner en ajustant progressivement le niveau de difficulté. 4 étoiles pour la qualité et le coté gratuit. Malheureusement beaucoup de pubs… Petit bug à corriger : il est impossible de revenir au menu principal quand on a sélectionné un exercice. Il faut fermer et relancer l’appli. Pas pratique. ### 4/5 — 面白い *2025-02-28* 面白くて毎日使ってるけど、問題数が一定なのが少し不便。できればエンドレスモードとか追加してほしい ### 4/5 — IOS 18.2 вылетает *2024-12-13* Не работает на iOS 18.2, вылетает после того как ввел аккорд. ### 5/5 — Помогает) *2024-09-29* 🙏grand merci ### 4/5 — Good, but translation *2024-09-11, version 1.3* the app is great but the translation in italian (my language) is not so good. ### 4/5 — Trans Position *2024-07-26* C’est très bien pour les instruments en do, mais il faudrait avoir la même chose pour les instruments transposer comme le saxo ou la clarinette. Comment entraîner son oreille quand on joue de ces instruments ? ### 4/5 — Отзыв *2024-05-24* Приложение классное, много теориии по музыке, но меня больше всего удивило, когда я зашел в «Лады» тональность D#, и оказывается после D# у нас идет E# Ми диез? Серьезно?😂 ### 4/5 — обучалка *2024-05-17* первый запуск. ход нормальный. минималистично и по делу. кажется вполне адекватное приложение. если что дополню отзыв ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ear Training Pro *2026-04-13* Bought the package deal for $7 but it crashes as soon as o use it. I used rhythm and really liked it and thought the package which advertised getting rhythm and music coach together. But I didn’t get music coach I got Ear Training Pro. And inside ear training pro when I click link to give feedback it links me to Chords: intervals and scales which is a completely different app! ### 1/5 — 为什么一直闪退 *2026-03-13* 为什么一直闪退 ### 1/5 — 자꾸 튕겨요 *2025-08-19* 돈주고 샀는데 자꾸 앱이 꺼집니다… ### 1/5 — Увы *2024-10-19* Вылетает. Заниматься невозможно. Жаль ### 1/5 — 中文翻译的有问题啊 *2024-08-29* 中文翻译的看不懂，请尽快修复 ### 1/5 — Warning does use theoretical scales *2024-02-29* Disappointed the app does fail to improve your scales etc with false info for piano exams ### 2/5 — stürzt ab *2025-10-17* idee ist super aber leider stürzt die app immer ab ### 2/5 — Crash continui *2025-10-15, version 1.3* Sarebbe utilissima e anche molto ben fatta, ma va continuamente in crash ### 2/5 — Shows Promise *2023-02-07* I primarily wanted this app to improve my ability to play modal scales. While the app shows promise, the scale exercises don’t start by playing the tonic note. This is extremely frustrating, and makes it hard to hear the scale in one’s mind. On playback, the user finally hears the starting note of the scale…but not the ending note. This is interferes with ear-training for scales. Why did the designer leave out the tonic, the most important note of the scale? Also, not having the tonic throws off the learning in another way. For example, Dorian scales become too easy because the first note that actually plays fools the ear into building a minor scale, using the first note we do hear (the second degree of the scale) as the pseudo-tonic. This could be seen as cheating, but it’s really a problem of poor app design. Four other problems exist with the scales exercises: 1) There is no way to choose the difficulty level. A player is automatically presented with scales such as Cb and E#. 2) On some of the scales, the tonic note isn’t shown on the keyboard. When I was playing, Cb minor did not show the B key. It showed only the C key at the far left of the screen. 3) The hints are given as interval distances, but from the tonic note! I have never seen it done this way. It is not wrong, and perhaps this is how scales are taught in some countries. Since the intervals described are from the tonic note, though, the app really should play the sound of the tonic. 4) The scoring is discouraging: The player has to input six notes for each scale. If one is incorrect, the whole scale is marked wrong, even if the player corrected it before inputting the next note and got the other five right. I do still find the app useful for learning modal scales, and there appears to be no other app like it. Also, I applaud the developer for allowing the user to choose whether to use letters, Do-Re-Mi’s, Sa-Rhe-Ga, and other systems for naming the notes. I would like to see the developer fix the problems above. Also, I request that the developer add numerical scale degrees (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) in addition to letter names and Do-Re-Mi’s for the naming the notes. ### 3/5 — Plante depuis peu *2026-03-26* L application plante depuis mon installation sur iPhone 17e ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — No ad version ? *2026-01-04* This is a really great leaning tool and would happily upgrade to a paid version the removed the ads if there was the option! ### 5/5 — 非常好的训练和弦软件，但是测了两个就会闪退，经常闪退 *2025-12-02* 经常闪退可以修复一下吗 ### 5/5 — Suerte *2025-10-16, version 1.3* Enhorabuena ha todos vuestros equipo ### 5/5 — Ideal *2025-09-27, version 1.3* Ideal para automatizar conocimiento de intervalos ### 5/5 — Хорошее приложение *2025-09-24* Хорошее, приложение.
