## What is Earonman?

Master your musical ear. Become an Earonman.

Earonman is a gamified ear training app for musicians of all levels. Build real relative pitch through 200+ structured levels, six specialized PRO quests, open practice, live microphone input, and head-to-head challenges.

MAKE IT YOURS

Wear a Timbre: an app-wide colour scheme bought with the EarCoins you earn by training. Twelve to collect, each drawn from a different corner of record and instrument design - Pressing, Stillness, Signal, Oxblood, Phosphor, Tweed, Panel, Walnut, Gatefold, Daylight, Fluoro and Concrete. Two of them are light. The whole app follows - backgrounds, text, the level map, your stats.

AUTHENTIC SOUND

Train with samples of a real Petrof III grand piano recorded at Baracca Records. Choose from 8 instruments: piano, Rhodes, strings, harp, electric guitar, flute, clarinet, and French horn.

200+ STEP-BY-STEP LEVELS

Progress from basic intervals to advanced jazz harmony:

• Melodic and harmonic intervals
• Triads and inversions
• Seventh and extended chords
• Compound intervals
• Scales and modes
• Slash chords
• Jazz voicings
• Upper structures, hybrid chords, and polychords

LEARN WITH DR. EARMOND SHARP

Each level begins with a short, chat-style lesson led by your witty musical guide. Learn theory through sound, clear explanations, and practical examples.

FREE PRACTICE MODE

Practice Intervals, Chords, Scales, and Jazz Voicings with no timers, no lives, and no daily limit. Train at your own pace without losing XP.

SIX PRO QUESTS

• Slashmaster — recognize inversions and slash chords
• Functioneer — hear harmonic functions and secondary dominants
• Harmonic Quest — explore harmonic movement through exercises inspired by several approaches, including the Barry Harris method
• Guido — master guide tones, especially 3rds and 7ths
• Hybrid Lab — identify triads over bass notes
• Polychordist — recognize stacked-triad structures

OPEN MIC

Answer by singing or playing instead of tapping. Earonman listens through your microphone and evaluates your intonation live, note by note. It works with voice, piano, saxophone, trumpet, and more.

All audio analysis happens on your device. Nothing is recorded or uploaded.

1V1 DUELS

Challenge another player across intervals, chords, scales, cadences, and chord progressions. Invite Earonman users directly or share a link with friends who do not have the app yet.

GAMIFIED PROGRESS

• Earn XP
• Build streaks
• Unlock badges
• Climb weekly Leagues
• Review past League results
• Track accuracy and time by quest and session

SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE

Earonman is available in English, Czech, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, and Japanese (the last three in beta). It follows your phone language automatically, and a picker in Settings switches any time, including back to English. Note names stay international (C, D, E, F, G, A, B).

ACCESSIBLE BY DESIGN

Full VoiceOver support across lessons, quests, and onboarding helps blind and low-vision musicians train independently. The app also includes large touch targets, high contrast, and clear focus indicators.

BUILT BY A MUSICIAN

Created by a professional jazz pianist, educator, and Barry Harris protégé. The curriculum connects ear training with real musical theory, harmony, and practical musicianship.

### 5/5 — Best out there

*2026-08-08*

As a professional musician, I’ve tried many different approaches to ear training, and I really enjoy this app. It’s thoughtful, easy to use, and makes practicing your ears actually enjoyable. Highly recommend it!

### 1/5 — Buggy, can’t delete account in line with law

*2026-06-14*

App is buggy with buttons that don’t work, menus that have no exit path, etc. Seems vibe coded. On top of it all, there is no way to delete your account (required by law): attempting to do so just returns various error messages. Also, it is just not that good of an app, I found Earpeggio to be better for learning.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the detailed feedback, that kind of report is useful.

Account deletion is working. Tap the gear icon in the top right, open Privacy Settings, and it is at the bottom of that screen. It removes the account along with all training data.

If you still have an account and want it gone, email info@earonman.com and I will confirm it is done.

On the navigation issues: if you remember which screens were affected, send me the details at the same address and I will look into it.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.11.0 — 2026-08-23

PLAY YOUR ANSWERS ON A MIDI KEYBOARD

Connect a MIDI keyboard by USB and play your answers instead of tapping them. Bluetooth keyboards pair inside the app: iPhone does not list a Bluetooth MIDI keyboard in its own Bluetooth settings, so Guido, Harmonic Quest and Jazz Voicings open Apple's pairing window for you, and the keyboard turns up in the app on its own once it connects.

SING IN SONG PRACTICE TOO

Guido's song practice takes your voice, not just your taps. Both of its screens ask for a single note over a sustained chord, so both now offer the microphone and the live pitch reading. (Open Mic is a Pro feature.)

A COURSE REVIEWED IN FIVE LANGUAGES

Translating the lessons into four more languages meant reading every sentence closely enough to rewrite it, and the course is sharper for it. Explanations are more precise, and level names now use the same words as the answer buttons inside them, so a level never asks for one thing and calls it another. Every correction reached all five languages at once.

ALSO IN THIS VERSION

Practice plays the voicing family you actually picked, and the Functioneer playback list offers only voicings that can carry a whole progression. Review no longer asks about a chord with no answer button. Interval names read as names in every language, the singing prompts use them correctly, and the Timbres in the shop are described in your own language.

### 1.10.0 — 2026-08-13

This release builds bridges: into four new languages, and across the steepest jumps in the course.

IN YOUR LANGUAGE

Earonman now speaks Czech, Spanish, Simplified Chinese and Japanese. The app follows your phone's language on its own, and Settings has a language picker visible to everyone, so switching - including back to English - is one tap, no restart. Note names stay international (C, D, E), the trainers keep their names, and musical terms read the way players in your language actually talk: a Czech learner answers with "Malá tercie", not "Minor Third". Spanish, Chinese and Japanese are marked Beta while their review continues.

251 LEVELS, WITH BRIDGES BETWEEN THEM

The course grew from 217 to 251 levels, and most of the new ones are bridges across jumps that used to be walls. Inversions in Functioneer now arrive two steps at a time instead of all at once. Progressions get a runway: four chords, then six, then all seven. The Voicings section opens with its easiest family first and grew new families - Block Chords, So What inversions, Kenny Barron and Herbie Hancock m11 stacks, and gentler openers for Drop 3 and Drop 2 & 4. Early levels ask for fewer correct answers (8, 10 and 12 instead of 15 across the first thirty), and voicing questions are now generated fresh in all twelve keys.

A FAIRER GAME

A failed or abandoned run now counts. Quitting mid-run or running out of lives used to throw your answers away; now they land in your stats and your streak, every time. A streak day is five correct answers anywhere in the app, and your day ends at your midnight - day boundaries respect your timezone. The daily Tune-up review (short, no lives, free) is now on the phone and on the web. And in Open Mic, the first miss on a question is free, and the app waits for the note you settle on instead of grabbing the first one you hold.

SOUND AND NOTATION

Chord changes connect smoothly: the top voice now steps to the nearest note of the next chord instead of jumping around. Upper Structures no longer sound muddy. And generated voicings are spelled the way a musician reads them - D# in B7, not Eb.

Guido's chord-chart studies now carry their own names too - Falling Leaves, Portrait of B. and friends - instead of borrowing famous titles.

RECENTLY, IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

1.9.0 redrew the whole app from the ground up and added Timbres: twelve app-wide colour schemes bought with the EarCoins you earn by training.

1.8.0 brought Open Mic: answer by singing or playing instead of tapping, with your intonation graded live, note by note, entirely on your device.

### 1.9.0 — 2026-08-02

v1.9.0 - Velvet

The whole app has been redrawn, and for the first time you can recolour it yourself.

A NEW LOOK, FROM THE GROUND UP

Earonman now has its own typefaces instead of borrowing your phone's: a serif for screen titles, a monospace for every number and score, and a clean sans for reading, so the three do different jobs. The background is a deep velvet lit from the top, carrying a grain so fine you are more likely to feel it than see it. Text is a warm cream rather than a cold white. Cards are lit from their own corner in their own colour instead of sitting flat on the page. Popups, tutorials and every other overlay now blur the screen behind them instead of only dimming it, so the text on top stays readable.

TIMBRES: TWELVE WAYS TO WEAR IT

A timbre is the colour of a sound, which felt like the right name for something that recolours an ear training app. There are twelve, bought with the EarCoins you already earn by training: Pressing, Stillness, Signal, Oxblood, Phosphor, Tweed, Panel, Walnut, Gatefold, Daylight, Fluoro and Concrete. Each one is drawn from somewhere records were made and played, from mid-century sleeve design to valve amplifiers and oscilloscope screens. Two of them are light, if you have been wanting that. Put one on in Settings and the whole app follows: backgrounds, text, icons, the level map's nodes, your stats and the dashboard grid.

PRACTICE IS EASIER TO FIND YOUR WAY AROUND

The ten trainers are now grouped into five families - Distance, Stack, Key, Motion and Outside - instead of showing ten competing colours at once. Every setup screen was rebuilt underneath that: Start is the same button on every trainer, long option names are no longer cut off halfway, and anything you cannot pick right now is greyed out with a line telling you why instead of silently vanishing. Every practice type also has a new description saying what you hear and what you do.

EVERYWHERE ELSE

Chat lessons take the new look, with message bubbles lit in the speaker's own colour. Quest rows in Stats fill with light to match your accuracy, so you can read how you are doing across trainers at a glance. Settings, notifications, the exercise picker, the league, duels, daily goals and help all use the same lit surface now.

RECENTLY, IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

1.8.0 brought Open Mic: answer by singing or playing instead of tapping, with your intonation graded live, note by note, entirely on your device. It works with voice, piano, saxophone and trumpet, accepts any octave, and speaks directional guidance to blind and low-vision users.

1.7.0 added animated level-complete celebrations and a leaderboard that shows your global rank and exactly how much XP you need to overtake the player above you.

### 1.8.0 — 2026-07-29

• Open Mic (PRO): Stop tapping and answer by singing or playing. Earonman listens through the microphone, shows how your pitch compares with the target note, and evaluates your intonation note by note.

• Use your voice or instrument. Open Mic works with singing, piano, saxophone, trumpet, and other pitched instruments, one note at a time.

• Sing in your own octave. A bass can answer a question written in a higher register, and Earonman always shows the octave it detected.

• Available in Interval levels, Guido, and Practice Mode. Practice Mode includes four answer types: Tap, Sing Back, Produce, and Transpose.

• Blind and low-vision users receive spoken directional guidance while holding an incorrect note.

• All audio is analysed directly on your device. Nothing is recorded or uploaded.

### 1.7.0 — 2026-07-21

- New leaderboard: reach the podium, see your global rank and chase the player right above you.
- Level-ups, streaks and coins now come with their own animation and sound, plus confetti on the results screen.
- Duels end with animated results.
- Faster startup, smoother performance, better offline support.
- Coming soon: Earonman Studio for teachers - classes, homework and progress tracking.
