What's New in GoodEar Pro

2.0.5

October 7, 2026

More ways to practise. WHAT'S NEW: - Chords can vary the play style for you: block, rolled or arpeggio, picked anew for every exercise. Pick Random in Chords, Options, Play Style. - The piano keeps playing when you plug in or unplug headphones. - Good Ear comes to rest when you stop, so an open app no longer drains the battery. - You can always practise, even with nothing selected. The app tells you when it picks the exercises for you. - Rate Good Ear or recommend it to a friend from any mode's Options. - New to Good Ear? The three-day trial of everything now starts when you choose, not on first launch. Happy practising.

The Best Ear Training App!

I’ve been using this ear training app for over a decade, and it remains one of the best investments I’ve made in my musical development. The exercises are smartly designed, highly customizable, and genuinely fun—exactly what you need to keep your ears sharp for the long haul.
Whether you’re drilling intervals, chords, scales, or melodic dictation, the app delivers focused, effective practice that translates directly into better playing and deeper listening. I’ve seen steady improvement in my pitch recognition, harmonic awareness, and overall musicianship since the very first month, and it still challenges me even now.
If you’re a serious musician—beginner or professional—this app is essential. It’s like having a dedicated ear coach in your pocket. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to keep their listening skills in peak condition.

Great app - no nonsense ear training

I’ve used this app for years and recommended it to many students as well. I’ve always loved the simple and functional design. I also recently submitted a feature request and they added it very quickly. So 5 starts to the development team as well!

Update nötig

Anscheinend lassen sich unter ios 26 die Einstellungen zum Ändern der Intervalle nicht mehr öffnen. Die App stürzt dann leider sofort ab. Ansonsten wäre sie wieder 5 Sterne wert. Bitte beheben!
