PianoBloom transforms music theory into an interactive visual experience. Explore scales, modes, and chords with an intuitive interface that makes complex musical relationships easy to understand because everything is being adjusted in front of your eyes. Turn the external circle to change Key Signatures and Tonal centers, turn the internal circle to change Modes. iOS drag gestures and UI elements make the App look timelessly elegant. The Interval Bloom shows output on the piano keys while giving you the whole arrangement of intervals. Whenever you explore a chord, it is always in the context of the current Key Signature, Mode and Scale Type. One year anniversary update includes Adaptive Just Intonation, that automatically retunes to the best available tuning, or choose regular Just Intonation and tune to whatever note you want by dragging around the yellow triangle - you will discover that some tunings are completely unusable and that's the lesson. Also included other historic temperaments and the global pitch reference can be adjusted and locked.

TUNINGS
Tap the tuning button to switch between Equal Temperament, Adaptive Just Intonation, fixed Just Intonation, three meantone temperaments (1/4, 1/3 and 1/6 comma) and four well temperaments (Werckmeister III, Kirnberger III, Vallotti and Young). Play a chord, switch tunings while it rings, and hear the difference.
LEMONS AND WOLVES
The flower now shows how pure the selected chord is: a Lemon emoji for every slightly sour interval, a Wolf emoji for every wolf, and the worst offender in cents. In fixed tunings you can watch the petals drift away from the pie's lines - that gap is how far out of tune the note is.
REFERENCE PITCH
Tune A4 anywhere from 380.0 to 444.0 Hz, with stops at historical pitches like 415.3 Hz Baroque, 430 Hz Classical and 440 Hz modern concert pitch. Lock the pitch to compare tunings without the pitch jumping.
The Interval Bloom shows why Roman numeral chords work the way they do, how to change Modes, what happens when we transpose Modes, Keys, Chords. How is Blues minor related to Phrygian Dominant? Very easy to see on the Interval Bloom!
