Great
Great for people who want to learn how to convert fingerings to octaves. It could be full screen though.
Straightforward and solid app
I’ve used a few other sight reading training apps but this one is clear, easy to use and solid. You can tailor settings to focus on the range of notes and keys you want to work on. Just right - and free! I would happily pay for it but the developer doesn’t even have a donation button in the app.
Do not download
I downloaded this app to help me refresh and get quicker with learning my notes. Unfortunately, this app is CRAP! It was telling me that I was wrong when it came to a G calling it a B. When clearly the 2nd line is a G hence the acronym (E-very G-ood B-oy D-oes F-ine) and for spaces (F-A-C-E) so for it to tell me the 2nd line is B when it's clearly G is absurd. So update your app and get the information correct. It's misleading and other musician will think that you are right when in actuality they are learning wrong.

Great app
Nothing fancy just a simple way to learn how to read notes and it worked great, like flash cards easy and clear!!! I have been learning how to play the piano for a month or two with a teacher but couldn't learn the notes well enough and it kept getting in my way of progress. Enter this FREE and great app, 3 days later of about 20min a day and I know them well, a week later and I was fluent 👍
If you are not sure of the notes at first you can press the note and it will tell you the answer rather than pressing mindlessly until you get it.
Thank you for this app and for making it free!

Poorly optimised app
How is this app even considered as optimised for iPhone 6/6 Plus? It doesn't display at the native resolution and there is this huge black bar at the bottom.
Great
Great app especially with the points system. Could maybe add a 1 minute countdown feature too.
Great App!
This is a nice simple app to learn notes. It's very cut & dry, which is nice for just having a few extra minutes here & there to review/learn your notes. It does exactly what I want. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is for limited ability to practice both the treble & bass clefs at the same time. Great customer service & a very nice app!

Musical apprentice
This app is very helpful as I have just started out on the road to learning to read music and to play an instrument. It is simple but effective for learning how to read for any instrument.
It's ok
The app does the job but to really kick it up a notch it needs a few small improvements.
First of all, the points/minute system doesn't work because the is a pause between displaying each note. In other words, you can't measure your speed very well when there is a pause between each note.
I love just about everything else, but there is one other thing that the app REALLY needs. It needs to track which notes you get wrong and which notes you get right, like other music apps. This way you can make it so more of the notes you don't know show up than the ones you do know, as well as letting you know what you need to work on.
I give this a three out of five because the pause between notes really annoy me and it performs as expected.

Not bad
Was ok. Very simple. Didn't get a lot for £1.79 or however much. Get the same result with flash cards. Would get 5* for this if it was 59p. Good app but over priced...
Simple,fun and very effective. By sweet dream. July 29,2010.
I love this app,I can play it any time and everyday if I'm not working . I am music lover all my life,but self studying music theory is a long process and maybe boring, but this app change it totally.It's addicted like playing game and learning the same time. Very helpful. Thanks the developer, you are genius, I really mean it.

Good app
I like this app mainly because it allows me to select what range of notes I would like to learn. The staff display is not very pretty, but it gets the job done.
A truly useful and fun app!!
Wow! I heard about this from my music teacher who recommends it highly. I am learning music with my children, and have found it invaluable in learning to read notes in an interactive yet simple manner. It is simple enough to practice in public with some time to kill and yet engaging enough to keep my 7-year-old entertained. Finally a game that actually teaches something!! I highly recommend it to parents whose kids are learning music, and for us more "mature" beginners it's a fun way to learn painlessly. Thank You! I would have paid more!

Note Tutor
This latest version is the best yet. Many little refinements that make using the app more intuitive. This app allows me to practice music wherever I am. I recently started learning bass clef and I couldn't imagine a better way to learn it. Occcasssionallly when life gets crazy busy and I can't make it to my practice space I can still do valuable work and keep a sense of connection with music. This app is not just for beginners. I am a serious and learned musician and this tool is very useful and helpful, especially if you play a transposing instrument.

Note tutor is great!
I've been putting off learning bass clef for years -- now I can practice during idle moments where ever I am.
It is fun and fast, and I love the audio feedback (playing the correct note).
It's great, thanks!

Learning to read music
This app is great for me and people like me, trying to learn how to read music! Easily customizable for all levels of music readers. Highly recommended, definitely worth the $0.99!!!
Great Little Musicians Aid
Absoloutely brilliant. Over the course of my first day using it with just 10 mins spent hear and there, my recognition of the notes on the treble clef I was studying improved by 30 to 40%
If you need to learn how to sight read this is a great tool to have and like all the best ideas, extremely simple.

Great for very young beginners
I wasted my money on a few of the paid for apps in this category. This is the best for my 5 year old to start learning notes. It isn't tied to a specific instrument and allows for adjusting the high low range
Musical flashcards
This is a great little program for those looking to develop or improve their note reading skills. The notes appear on the staff and you identify them using the interface. It's essentially a drill, and it does that very well. Good for all of us beginners!
make it better
It's ok, but I would strongly recommend that they add a keyboard to tap the proper note instead of just the letters. And have both the treble and bass clefs appear simultaneously on screen. That would make it perfect.
