### 5/5 — LOVE THIS APP!

*2024-03-24*

This makes it so much easier to teach aural skills. Letting students practice in private is key. Most people don’t like to sing in front of other people. Instant feedback is great. And I love that it’s a super affordable subscription. Worth every penny.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! We're thrilled to hear you are loving NoteNerd: Voice. We hope it helps you master the skills you need.

### 5/5 — Absolutely Necessary

*2023-10-10*

This app is a necessity for music teachers. It’s great for much more than pitch matching. The rhythm aspect is fantastic for working with non-voice music students. If you’re serious about music, this is a must have.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! We're thrilled to hear you are loving NoteNerd: Voice. We hope it helps you with your students.

### 5/5 — Gold Mine. Nothing like it out there

*2023-10-10*

I usually do not write reviews but gotta say, this a huge step in tech to provide all these features in a hand held device. You get private, interactive vocal, rhythmic and ear training without going to a listening lab. I’ve been teaching music for over 40 years and recognize it as the real thing. 

There are multi-leveled exercises, scales, chord progressions. If you want truthful feedback of your pitch and rhythm without stopping the flow of practice, consider getting the app just for that alone. The exercises cover many learning styles. Can create your own exercises and compile your personalized practice sets. Habit-forming rhythmic training!

As a music educator I explored this app thoroughly to find its potential. Very impressive. Nothing like it anywhere.

### 5/5 — A must have for voice teachers and their students‼️

*2023-10-06*

This App is a must have tool for all of my students at what ever level they are at in their vocal journey!  I love it as a training tool for myself as well!

### 5/5 — Sight-singing essentials!

*2023-10-02*

Love this app!  One of a kind secret weapon for professional vocalists and students alike!
