### 5/5 — I love this app but

*2026-04-19, version 1.0.7*

I love this app but I wish I could unlock items that I’ve failed previously.  It seems like once I fail a scene, I can never unlock it.

### 5/5 — Marvelous app

*2024-12-24, version 1.0.7*

Please consider make an option for non-moveable do scales. Do di re ri mi Fa Fi So Si La Li Ti (or just with sharp flat notation). Consider also adding chords please. And please add more songs will purchase all of them$$$. My kiddo finished both stories in 10 days and asked for more… many thanks for making such a fantastic app

### 5/5 — Well Designed and Thought Out

*2024-10-09, version 1.0.7*

Solfège Story gives you a thoroughly thought-out path to improve your tonal listening skill. Beginning with just a couple notes, you gradually work up the scale.  There is enough variety of activities to keep it engaging and the feedback in each one helps you culture your sense for what each note in the scale sounds like.

I love it.

### 5/5 — Fantastic ear training app!

*2024-05-18, version 1.0.7*

Really well designed app which utilizes a similar approach to Edwin Gordon’s Music Learning Theory system. The first run through is all in C fixed Do, but once you finish the story you can also play through it in a moveable Do mode which is extremely useful. 

Highly recommend for kids and adults to develop their ear and to learn solfège with a smart and organized teaching progression. 

The full main “story” mode is completely free all the way through, its not just a demo like some ear training apps which only give you a couple levels for free.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2024-05-16*

Can’t get any audio to play. Can’t get the What is Solfege, What is Do, and How Can I Find Do buttons to do anything when I press them.

Would happily edit my review if the app worked.
