Deceptive marketing
Makes you go through all the palaver of setting up a complex custom drill before it declines to process it at the very last second unless you buy the premium version. If it was honest about this from the start, I might well have chosen to do that, but I’m offended at being extorted at the last second after spending time to customise it. I won’t reward sneaky behaviour with my custom

Very Useful
I like this app because it helps me to be faster at sight reading. I wish it had chords, which would make it more challenging.
I like it!
Comprehensive and well designed app, effective for learning
Pointless
I don’t see the benefit in practising sight reading and pressing on a circle of notes rather than a mock up piano
Surely the point of this is to become more familiar with playing the keys? Why make us practice in a circle?

I love this app I have been looking for a app like this for a while
Amazing app for improving sight reading
I've been using this for many months now. Thanks to this app, I figured out how to sight read Bass clef and Treble clef at the same time, and I can immediately recognize every key signature. This app treats sight reading like a game, very novel idea. Highly recommend musicians learning to read music notes check this app out, it'll teach them to read very fast!

Well Designed, but...
In general, I am rather impressed with the application and how it can teach you to treat music using the app.
I paid for the app because it says in the description of the product that the microphone can be used so that the user can practice reading music on their instrument.
I understand that the microphone might not pick up everything, but I have repeatedly run into an issue where I keep hitting the correct note on my instrument (a mandolin) without the application recognizing it. The only way past it is for me to hit the wrong note. It seems that it is not having a problem with the microphone, but instead something going on with the software.
I reached out to the developers to ask them about the issue, and they quickly responded, which is a very positive thing. Unfortunately, their advice was not to use my instrument, but instead to use the application.
There are a great number of apps out there designed to help someone learn how to read music, and I thought this application's ability to detect the note being played on an instrument, set it apart from all the others. Sadly, that is not the case.

Must to progress
Truly one of the simplest and has everything that is needed from an app like this at the perfect price. Really happy that you are a part of my journey.
Very smart.
This is good.
It’s clever because the player controls the speed. The app tracks pace really smoothly. No fingering is given so you have to work out how to finger each exercise. It’s well thought out and progresses at a good pace.
This and ‘ReadAhead’ are the two best piano sight-reading trainers on the Appstore. It doesn’t force you to read ahead like ‘ReadAhead’ but it’s excellent for the note learning and coordination aspects of sight-reading.

Would like to see a grand staff on here!
This would be the perfect app for piano sight reading too if there was a grand staff (treble clef above the bass clef) as if sight reading piano sheet music. I am also having trouble controlling the speed at which the notes move in the sight reading.
Response from developer
Thank you for the feedback. Giving bad reviews is definitely not the way to ask for features though: hurting the app will only result in less downloads and therefore less resources to add things. Grand staff will possibly be coming in a future mode, but for the speed at which the notes are moving, it's just depending on how fast you input notes. You can disable sheet music animation in the app settings if you don't want the notes to move gradually. Best, Stéphane.
Great app for learning notation
I really recommend spending some time with the app, it made me learn notes very quickly and efficiently. The UI is very clear and you can adjust a lot of stuff in the settings. I would suggest adding a mode where you can differentiate between chords, that would be fantastic! Or even showing a grand staff and having to guess multiple notes at the same time. But overall the app is very good, thank you!

O melhor
De todos que usei esse é o melhor
Excellent learning and teaching app
This is a great way to learn how to sight read music notation. I’ve really increased in speed and learnt a lot. It’s also a great teaching aid that is really motivating. A great app and very good value for money. I highly recommend this for any musician. Particularly guitarist, like myself who spent many years missing many aspect of music theory and written notation. I wish this app existed years ago when I was learning to play. Don’t be chump. Use this app to learn notation and enter the exciting world of music theory, will really start to make a lot more sense and transform your playing and understanding.

Interface with Piano
Nice application and fun to use. I have the app loaded on an iPad connected to my piano using a MIDI interface. This allows me to use the piano directly to respond to the notes scrolling in on the app. It took a few tries to get this working but I recommend it. Here are some details. My piano is an older Roland F50 with MIDI. The iPad is a newer model Version 7. I found my older equipment did not work. MIDI adapters come with USB A connectors. I had to get an adapter USB A to Lightning to connect to the iPad. The first MIDI interface I bought did not work. Finally I shopped for an interface that explicitly claimed to work with iPad, and this worked. There is one glitch; if the iPad goes to sleep it will disconnect from the piano and will not reconnect until the iPad is restarted. I have to do this each time I practice. I can live with this.

I wish I’d found it sooner.
I feel like I’ve wasted so much time trying to wrap my head around notation. This app is inexpensive and incredibly effective. Thank you!
The best to learn reading
This is the best application for learning piano and music notes more than any of the apps in this entire store. I truly love all the work you have done! I can finally play the piano without paying a yearly subscription.
Melhor app do ramo
Testei vários app pra estudar partituras, e esse é sem dúvida o melhor.
Excellent
Bravo aux développeurs.
J’utilise la série complète des applications (notes, rythmes, intervalles) durant les cours de guitare classique.
Je me pose une question : serait-il possible pour moi de brancher une guitare sur l’iPad de ma classe afin que les élèves effectuent leur exercices de lecture de note en jouant et non en tapotant l’écran.
J’organise des championnats de lecture de notes, les enfants se prennent au jeu mais préfèreront sans aucun doute jouer les notes.
Ils se plaignent souvent des quelques dixièmes de seconde perdus à chercher la note sur le cercle.
D’avance merci pour votre réponse.
Encore bravo à vous.

Family sharing
Is it possible to share the in app purchase within the family ?
Response from developer
Thank you for the feedback. I'm afraid it's not possible at the time. Best, Stéphane.
Bluetooth not working
Every other app works with my Bluetooth but not this, otherwise I would buy it.
