What's New in Tiny Instrument

2.7.0

October 8, 2026

Theory, complete. Practice with a goal. Practice with a goal. Scale and chord practice can now finish for you instead of running forever. Choose a number of clean laps or a few minutes, or aim for a target accuracy or tempo. A progress bar tracks you as you play, and reaching the goal ends the session with a next step to try. Theory, complete. Four new chapters fill the last gaps and turn theory into playing, plus a new Chord Functions lesson on why I, IV and V pull the way they do. Look for the NEW badge in Learn. Lessons you play, not just read. Progression examples inside lessons are now play-alongs. The chords appear on the staff with their names and Roman numerals, and each bar fills green as you play it. See what you are playing, engraved. Practice now shows real notation. Short drills show the whole exercise on a grand staff with the current note highlighted, and the new Play-Along Staff follows the music in Play and Practice, with proper beams, rests, ties, slurs and accidentals. Now play the real thing. Finish a lesson and it hands you a real piece that uses exactly what you just learned, like Ode to Joy, Für Elise and Minuet in G. Pieces light up in the Songbook as you unlock them. Plan your week. Set your practice days, a reminder time and how long to spend in each area, see today's progress at a glance, and add the whole plan to your calendar. Also new: - Finger badges now show which hand to use, and scales can be practiced left-handed. - Two-Hand Drills can run up, down, or up and back. - Exercises accept any octave and any chord inversion. - The Key, Scale and Chord pickers now work the same way. - A switch in Settings turns off Easter eggs. - Layouts adapt to any screen size and shape, ready for iPhone Duo. Plus many fixes and polish. Thanks for playing.

Import / Export of midi files doesn’t work, it’s only a demo

Response from developer

MIDI import and export are fully supported in Tiny Instrument, so it sounds like you may have run into a bug or an issue with a specific file. I’d love to investigate and help get it working. Please feel free to contact me through the app or via the support information on the Tiny Instrument website. Also, version 2.0 has now been released, bringing a major update with many new features and improvements. Existing users who joined early have received Early Adopter unlocks as a thank-you for supporting the app during its development. If you reach out with details about the MIDI file and device you’re using, I’ll do my best to help.
