I can hear music, but I is blank. ### 2/5 — Princess Piano settings *2013-12-30, version 1.6* I like this app, but when trying to add a new user I cannot and the game keeps going back to default. I also would like to start a new game with my students and the app will not allow me to do this. When I press on new player the keyboard does not show up so that I may add a new person. I am incredibly frustrated. ### 1/5 — Piano teacher *2013-03-20, version 1.5* I'm so disappointed in this app. I thought it might be good for my beginning students who are struggling to learn the notes. I could not understand how to do it correctly and I've been playing piano for sixty years. Don't recommend the app. ### 1/5 — So not worth the mony *2012-12-24, version 1.5* This game is one of the biggest wasted of money ever. ### 5/5 — Best app ever *2012-11-18, version 1.5* You will learn to be awesome ### 5/5 — Good Game! *2012-06-15, version 1.5* I'm just starting to learn how to play the piano and learning how to read notes. This game is perfect for me because it teaches you where the notes are on the staff. I also like that you learn one note at a time, which is a good pace. I highly recommend this game for anyone who wants to learn the piano and learn how to read notes! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2012-05-31, version 1.4* Awesome app for beginners like me ### 4/5 — Great help to learn piano *2011-12-15, version 1.4* Disclaimer: I got this when it was free. Turning learning to play piano into a game is a great idea. This children's training app uses one-note melodies to teach reading and playing music. The timing seems to be accurately measured, and the feedback is decently helpful. However, there's no metronome or musical accompaniment, which means you have to time everything visually by the title character's bouncing. (The lack of accompaniment is especially problematic with the final song, which is simply not melodic.) There's no auditory feedback beyond the notes you play, either. But it's a learning tool, not Guitar Hero, so that's okay. The last update seems to have fixed the biggest problem I had with this app. Just hope the other one (no aural indicator of timing) is addressed, as well as some bugs, and I won't have any other meaningful complaints. And I don't have a MIDI keyboard, so I can't say whether it's supported, but that would be magnitudes better than playing the on-screen piano. ### 5/5 — Princess piano *2011-11-19, version 1.3* My granddaughters and I are having a race to see who can master it first and we are learning too. I would definitely buy a sequel to this super fun game. ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2011-11-16, version 1.3* Loved it! Please make more apps! There should be a sequel to this. Love the game & the music is great. Good Job ## Frequently asked questions about Princess Piano ### What is the learning method used in Princess Piano?
