### 3/5 — Great app…but soooo expensive!!

*2025-08-16, version 6.0.0*

I’ve said it all. Bloody EXPENSIVE.Not everybody has 30€ to spend on an app. And it’s not like some apps with lots of carefully written texts, embedded videos/sounds and so on and so forth… apps for specialists made by specialists. No…none of that. Too bad, really. And by the way, 6 years ago, a user asked for a translation in French. The answer was « we’re considering adding more languages ». SIX years later, the app is STILL ONLY in English!!! And last but NOT LEAST, $19.99 is not €29.99 in Europe. Yes, we’re Europeans but we’re not dumb…..
And as everybody can see, nobody answers here. Great customer service, that’s for sure!!

### 1/5 — Keys Malfunction

*2025-01-27*

A lot of the time when I try to click on one key it says I clicked on another

### 4/5 — Practice area

*2024-10-06, version 5.6.0*

I would like to listen notes and chores without assessment. Can you add a practice area to listen notes and chores?

### 3/5 — Good app, but still get ads after buying pro

*2023-04-21, version 5.6.0*

It’s a good app and I like it a lot. Taking two stars off because I’m paying for pro, but still get ads sometimes :/

### 5/5 — Good

*2023-03-20, version 5.6.0*

Good

### 5/5 — The best ear training app

*2022-12-06, version 5.6.0*

This is by far the best ear training. I’ve been playing piano for over 8yrs but still struggle with songs, knowing the chords for songs.
Although new to this app but I’m already enjoying n learning a lot. Highly recommend it

### 5/5 — Excellente application

*2022-10-29, version 5.6.0*

Progressive et ludique, cette application est idéale pour développer l’oreille, certes, mais également pour repérer les notes sur un clavier. Adaptée à tous les âges et niveaux. Développe la mémoire. Je recommande !

### 4/5 — problem logging in with apple account

*2022-10-07, version 5.6.0*

I subscribe to the annual pro package but can't use it, every time I run the application, my account is logged out, then I log back in, the application is stuck at the word "loading"

### 5/5 — make you feel real

*2022-07-21, version 5.6.0*

this type of app gonna help alot of people persue music career

### 3/5 — Good for beginners. Kind of frustrating

*2022-07-09, version 5.6.0*

Great concept. Been using this for a few weeks now and I’m at level 10.

Two things that I can’t stand about this app:
1) It keeps logging me out of pro mode and I have to restart the app to get it to work again. Very annoying.
2) Why can’t I repeat lines of multiple notes? It’s very frustrating when you’re first starting out and trying to guess four notes in a row correctly because you’ll take a few seconds to get the first two notes right and by then, you’ve already forgotten how the next two notes sounds, so doing four notes in a row is really hard.
