Great tool, some levels too hard

Overall this is a fun & great way to help students practice interval counting. My only complaint is that I wish there were a few lives given on each level. If you make one mistake you have to start all over at the beginning of each level. The highest level is too hard for me to pass as a teacher, so I imagine it’s impossible for my students. The lower level games and practices are worth it though.

Android users

I’m a piano teacher and my young students adore the app. I’ve purchased a Samsung tablet and I am very frustrated about the fact that it’s not available on Android. Guys, please, develop a version for Android. It’s not that difficult.

Good, but room for more features.

As a piano teacher, I like the look of this app and plan to start using it with a few of my younger students. However, I would love to be able to unlock the lower levels to slot my students into the level that is appropriate for them, which would enable wider use. It would be good to also be able to set particular exercises as homework through the app.

Way too difficult!

I’m a piano teacher and while the practice phases of this game are useful, the actual game is so difficult it has literally made my students cry. I have yet to get past level 3 myself and I have a Bachelor of Music, its just way too hard and stressful to actually teach the kids anything.

Best app for helping students understand intervals!

This is exactly the app I was looking for help my students understand intervals. The “staff” flips at one point during practice so they can understand which way is up or down. Then it will return to normal and they’ll still have to identify up and down. This is well worth every penny!!!
