### 3/5 — Ningenius review

*2025-03-07*

Ningenius is a good app for learning notes and it is fun. However it is repetitive and can get boring.

### 4/5 — Cool

*2021-10-04*

Fun for music

### 4/5 — Fun

*2017-09-07*

It's great for my kids. I wish we could organize by classes so it would
Be easy to setup and have my trumpet class do.

### 4/5 — Love it!

*2017-08-12*

I love the app because I teach piano and strings lessons as well as band. The only thing I wish for pano would be that noted appear on the grand staff. Otherwise I love the app.

### 5/5 — LOVE THIS APP!

*2017-07-13*

This is app is insane!  I cannot even tell you how much I appreciate having all the instruments available!  For a school that teaches multiple instruments this is the BEST VALUE out there for drill work!  Plus it's fun and addicting!  

If you are a school- GET IT!
If you are a parent with musicians- GET IT!

Have some fun and learn at the same time!

### 5/5 — Great for band

*2017-07-03, version 1.2.0*

Really a useful app for having students practice note names and fingerings without having to take the instrument home

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2017-06-26*

I've been using this app in the classroom for some time. It is great, but it was missing the ability to customize the range/notes and if we wanted to use it, it was limited to beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Now we can work on what we need! Kids LOVE this app and suddenly, besides playing scales, it helps them remember all of their Fingerings!

### 4/5 — Great start!

*2016-03-24*

I'm a private teacher who teaches piano and woodwinds. I love have individual student scores and different instruments. This app will get five stars when I can choose the range of notes for a student to learn and practice.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your favorable review. I wanted to let you know that the new update (1.2) does indeed allow you to choose the range of notes for custom tests, and you can create and and name an unlimited number of customized tests for all instruments. I hope you and your students enjoy this new feature. Please let us know any other features you would like to see added as we want to continue to make the app better and better.

### 5/5 — Fun app for students!

*2016-01-22*

It has been fun getting students acquainted with this app. The scoring system is a plus as they work to earn the highest score. I would love to see chords added to this app in the future.

### 4/5 — Excellent app, but could use few more features for classroom use

*2016-01-16, version 1.0.0*

This app provides an excellent reinforcement of note learning and instrument fingering for young band students, and they love doing it!
However, it would be nice to be able to set up a 'class' and have a login for students using the student version, so I can track student progress from the school app. In that case, 30 students using different iPads could compete during class or at home, and the teacher could track their progress, amount of playing time, etc. It would also be great to have an overall leaderboard for beginner, intermediate, etc.
