### 5/5 — Learn recorder- tonestro

*2026-07-14*

I love how when it shows that there is a scientist cannot make a note at all it is really helpful and I also like the way when it has like a little ball going up and down for you to do the note and when it shows that you know is too high or low and you made too many mistakes. It really does the song for you and it shows a little bit of the song. They have to redo it again and when you have done like less more mistakes than you did before it shows a score of how well you did and it shows from one to 3 stars of how well you did this app is a fun and simple app and it really teaches you how to play your recorder. I highly recommend this app for other people.
