### 5/5 — .

### 5/5 — You can’t play a piano that falls away…

*2023-08-27*

from you. 

Can you please make this app’s piano keyboard visible again and tell it to stick around so I can play it like I used to be able to? It isn’t working, only the top of it is visible when I turn my iPhone to the side, and that’s only visible for a brief time before it appears to fall away and plummet to the earth’s core where the ape men of Pelucidar play Mozart’s piano sonatas on it much to the delight of the music loving tyrannosauruses who dwell there. Good for them but bad for me.

### 5/5 — T

As cy☺️💟awaawsat s uh. Gf

### 1/5 — aucun son

*2020-01-12*

Impossible d’entendre les sons.

### 4/5 — App sound works but not on sound volume??

*2020-01-12, version 3.34*

If anyone else runs into this problem, the app doesn’t run on the sound volume, it runs on the ringtone volume. I find this very odd. When my iphone is switched on silent and my volume is turned all the way up it won’t make noise, but when my phone is switched off of silent and my ringtone volume is up it does. Cool app either way... just maybe something to fix at some point?

### 5/5 — Great app with just a couple of bugs

*2016-10-21, version 3.25*

I have to say I love this app. It is wonderful. It has helped me a lot with my ear training class. 

Thank you for the bpm fix. That was super quick! You all are great!

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for.

*2015-03-09, version 3.17*

If you are trying to learn to play a melody after hearing it, this is the app for you. It gives you a random melodies to figure out and you can customize the length (up to ten notes) as well as all the notes you want to include. If you want to test what you have in mind you can just turn your phone sideways and a keyboard shows up. 

Totally worth the money!

I do have a couple recommendations. Add interval name for the note name type (e.g. Minor second, major second, perfect fifth...). Also add the option to have random note durations. So it wouldn't just play all quarter notes.

### 4/5 — Good app but some things should be improved.

*2014-09-04, version 3.14*

I use it mainly for Functional Ear Training. It works but there are some limitations that in my opinion should be addressed.

The only cadence available is V-I. It would be great if it included I-IV-V-I as well.

More importantly, the note to identify is limited to one octave. There should be an option to select "restricted to one octave" on/off.

More sounds apart from piano and organ would be nice (e.g. electric piano) but this is a very minor point.

[edit]

Excellent customer service.

The developer updated the app following some of my suggestions. The update doesn't cover 100% exactly what I hoped for but it shows that they listen.

I couldn't find any email address to communicate with the company on the web site. I think it is something that should be addressed.

Overall a good app.

### 4/5 — Excellent app

*2013-06-17, version 3.4*

Great app for ear training - gets nice and complex!

### 4/5 — Sweet but needs fixing

*2013-06-05*

It's great! Helps a lot for aural test but only thing that's wrong is that sometimes the correct answer doesn't pop up as an option for an answer.
