### 5/5 — Review of Piano App

*2012-11-27, version 1.2.3*

I love this app I got it for my granddaughter when she just a few months old.  She had birth trauma form cord and they encouraged us to stimulate her in whatever way possible with reading music etc.  she is 1 yrs old now and I have watched her go Forman infant listening and watching me play to a baby who now points at the colors to play.  She loves praise with her physical therapy etc so the clapping at the end is one of her favorite parts.  Thank you for a wonderful and useful app for all ages.  Lots of fun.

### 5/5 — For all ages

*2012-08-10, version 1.1.5*

I have had this on my iPad for about a year and my grandchildren have enjoyed it.  I saw my nearly three-year-old grandson playing with the app today and he was having a great time.  It is educational as well as entertaining.  I am a piano teacher so anything I find that can be used to get any child interested in the piano is a worthy investment.  Thanks for this great addition to my collection!

### 5/5 — Fun and educational!

*2012-07-14, version 1.1.1*

This app is great for anyone who's interested in learning the piano, or just wants to work on their rhythm. There's a wide variety of songs to choose from, so you're bound to hear a lot of familiar pieces. Great job!

### 5/5 — Piano app

*2012-06-19, version 1.1*

I absolutely love this app, fun and easy was to learn to play piano..unfortunately I only have an iPhone and think an iPad is better suited. My only complaint is after an upgrade the icon turned into a white box, no colors or piano keys.. Maybe that can be fixed? Thanks for your help.

### 5/5 — Already Hooked!

*2012-02-29, version 1.0.2*

My 5 year old is already loving this app. After playing for a few minutes, he is trying to play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star on his keyboard and doing very well. True, it does not teach how to read music sheets. But it is a great introduction for kids to familiarize themselves with keystrokes.

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2012-02-14, version 1.0.2*

App is wonderful and I got great tech support too when I had issues.

### 5/5 — Never thought I could do piano

*2012-02-08, version 1.0.2*

I cant believe this helps you play songs thanks this really helps me learn!

### 5/5 — It is a great app

*2012-02-07, version 1.0.2*

It is very cool I am just getting used to it but I think that I will learn it better in the near future

### 5/5 — Glorious fun

*2012-02-06, version 1.0.2*

I wanted to have fun playing the piano.  I am an old woman who wanted to play for five decades and thought it too late.  It is NEVER to late.  This is so much fun with several speeds to let me slow down or speed up depending on my comfort level.  I am using it to relax from the grind...thank you.

### 5/5 — Beginner

*2012-02-05, version 1.0.2*

This app is great!! Has some songs on here that I never thought I would be learning off the top, I always liked the piano but never really had the money for lessons but this would be a great start!! I'm a break dancer/ poplocker/ shuffler... I'm great with my hands but never made my fingers dance on keys lol. Love it and I would recommend this to anyone interested in learning.

### 5/5 — *piano

*2012-02-05, version 1.0.2*

I love this game it basically teaches you how to play songs no the piano which is amazing now I can go to my music class and show off my piano skills ;)

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2012-02-05, version 1.0.2*

This is awesome!  I am really enjoying learning to play!  Can't wait to let my grand kids give it a shot!!!

### 5/5 — Piano

*2012-02-05, version 1.0.2*

This is a great app! You can learn songs to play by starting out at a slower speed and work up to the correct speed.

### 1/5 — very glitchy and annoying HORRIBLE songs

*2012-11-23, version 1.2.3*

I only bought because it was supposed to come with 100 free songs for thanksgiving bonus...no bonus songs. I paid $2 for this and it doesn't work, the colored keys get stuck or an extra note gets added, it's so awful. Also there is an annoying farty sound everytime you tap a menu button. Very stupid app.

### 1/5 — WTH

*2012-02-05, version 1.0.2*

Tried downloading it yesterday but it still hasn't fully installed, like another reviewer said. I can't delete it and try again because it won't give me the little X as it's in a kind of limbo. Don't know what to do! HELP! I can't give any stars for this ghost-like app that's neither here nor there but cant review without giving it 1 star. Frustrating!

### 3/5 — Needs a few more options

*2014-06-05, version 1.4.453*

My daughter is beginning piano lessons and this would be nice, but finger position is hard to do accurately on the simple songs even at half speed, which is the slowest that this app will let you take the tempo.  Also, a few songs that only use a few finger positions before "Bingo" like they offer in all the beginner piano books would be nice.

### 3/5 — This could be really good.....

*2012-11-13, version 1.2.3*

Except that I can't play in auto mode. I have tried everything I could think of, but no go. I would like to play the songs to see what the arrangement is like, then I will be more able to play along better.

### 3/5 — Needs work.

*2012-02-07, version 1.0.2*

Good app, but the applause after every song gets annoying. Plus, if we want to choose another song we have to start from the main menu. Please add a button that lets us go directly back to the song list.

### 4/5 — Piano

*2020-05-27, version 1.5.4*

Ths is so easy. A great selection of songs and they show you finger positions. Great for kids and adults.

### 4/5 — Piano

*2013-05-14, version 1.3.3*

Like this app it's fun to play and easy wish it played full s.ongs and they keys were easier to use with my hands but that's almost impossible on the iPad need my own real piano again! Still dun to play like it a lot!!

### 4/5 — Fun app!

*2012-01-13, version 1.0.2*

Fun application to use to train yourself a little on playing a piano keyboard. I notice I can take music I learn here and peck it out on a full-sized keyboard. Good time-waster and might be useful to teach kids a little about playing the piano. Wish there was evening more music and more categories.

### 4/5 — !!Simply Sweet!!

*2012-01-05, version 1.0.2*

This app is all it says it is and more! While limited to the right hand, you play by touching the correct keys as colored notes waterfall down the screen.  Great for those with limited or no piano background.  The sound is soft and not too annoying.  The range of music is great and quite a few essentials.  

Well worth the $2

My only complaint is, however, the songs need to be MUCH longer.  Especially the classics.  Perhaps just the short ones to start but unlock longer or more difficult additions as you progress.  

Thanks, Megadad

### 4/5 — Improvement Suggestion

*2012-01-04, version 1.0.2*

The app itself is wonderful, but would be made complete by having the option to play freestyle. I know a lot of people who liked the app when they played in on my iPad, but said that they would not buy it because there isn't a free play mode. Other than that, it's awesome!

### 5/5 — Great for learning and review.

*2017-11-25, version 1.5.2*

I got this for my grandson and decided to reminisce about my piano-playing Days and give it a whirl.  It was fun and a flood of memories came back.  I have the urge to find a piano and stretch the fingers!  I didn’t expect these feelings from an iPad app! I’m so glad I got it!

### 5/5 — I've always wanted to play an instrument and now I can

*2014-05-21, version 1.4.5*

Whenever friends would pick up a guitar or sit behind a piano I'd always be jealous; I've always wanted to play an instrument but have no idea how to read music and didn't have the time to take lessons- and didn't want to spend the money on an instrument then never use it. This app is awesome. It's fun, encouraging (there's thunderous applause whenever you complete a song), and now I can actually sit at a piano and play a couple of songs. It teaches you what fingers to hit which keys with, and you learn good songs.  I've had a ton of fun with this app and it's awesome that it's actually teaching me how the play the piano.

### 5/5 — Really awesome!!

*2014-03-13, version 1.4.43*

This is by far the best piano app out on the market. My daughter loves to play and has really made great advancement on the keyboard because of this app.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2013-12-14, version 1.4.37*

Simple easy to use, clear interface that responds accurately. Small file size is also handy.

### 5/5 — Full recommended

*2013-10-29, version 1.4.35*

This is a great application, easy to understand and teach you in a fast and funny way. 👏👍

### 5/5 — Piano

*2013-10-20, version 1.4.35*

works so easily. My 18 month old granddaughter can pick a tune and listen.  I enjoy the different speeds and different genres.  Have never had a problem with it not working which Is a BIG plus.

### 5/5 — WOW!!!

*2013-10-11, version 1.4.34*

This is a very basic but perfectly adequate tool for budding musicians. The gentle encouragement advice and quotes help to realize playing an instrument takes time patience and lots of practice. Great stuff!

### 5/5 — Wow

*2013-08-02, version 1.3.9*

This is really great! The best app out there to help learn music, and so many great songs! Keep up the good work! 
You have worked hard to make this app so user friendly

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2013-07-22, version 1.3.8*

I downloaded this for my nephew.  He could follow along with the easiest songs at the slower speeds.  After a couple of years of "playing", he is now taking piano lessons.  I had none of the problems listed by others about sound, keys sticking, etc.  Only recommendation is for some more children's songs and holiday songs.  Thanks for creating.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2013-06-21, version 1.3.6*

This is a fun app to play classic songs. It gives you the choice to play at 1/2 speed, 3/4 speed and full speed which is nice if you're new to musical intrusments!
