Almost perfect

It helps me connect my eyes with my fingers. Very simple concept but very effective to memorize the notes on both staffs.

I wish they could do that with chords as well. Not just notes.
At least the basic triads. Major and minor. So we can read and play chords at the same time. If they can include the 7ths will be great.

Quiz is all screwed up!

When I take the quiz and tap the B on the keyboard, it always turns red (wrong answer).
The notes have sharps in front of them, but the quiz tells me they are flats!
I have the latest IOS on my iPhone, so it must be the app!
It’s pretty frustrating!

bug

can someone plz fix the B in the bass clef bug

Cropped text and unfinished references

The text is cropped from the sides and the bottom on my iPhone SE.
Plus some references, like the key signatures, are not explained and instead there are code words e.g. cMajorInfo for the C Major explanation. Other than that, it’s perfect!

Please Update

This is a great go-to app for music teaching and scale references, and I'm hoping the developer will reconsider updating it, as the next iOS update will spell its end. The quiz is great!
