Changed my life

I needed a productive tool to limit social media and this is perfect for me

Has great potential but lacks usability with accessibility features such as Voiceover

This app reminds me of Duolingo in that it’s gamafied. The only difference is that Duolingo is a lot more accessible with voiceover screen reader for blind people such as myself than trill is I got really excited when I heard about trill on Facebook just through scrolling my feed and so I thought I would try it out seeing as is I’m blind and have been a musician for quite a while. Wanted to test my perfect and relative pitch but after creating my account, I couldn’t even start the lesson or review to see where I would be able to start in whatever level I'd be in based on a review that would determine my starting point like Duolingo. The sad thing about Duolingo though is that they created a music section and a math section and both of those sections are not that accessible either but oddly enough the language is when you wanna learn a language at least certain languages. anyway I was really excited to use your app but to no avail now disappointed, but I’m glad it’s free to try for seven days. I canceled the subscription early enough because I knew after trying to play around with it for about five minutes that it wouldn’t last long on my iPhone, unless I were to reach out to you guys. If you’d like to reach out to me directly, you can do so if you’re interested in helping making it accessible I can send you to a site that encourages apps like yours to be very accessible to the blind community. My email is cdrobles693 @ gmail.com or alternatively you can go to the following site and post about your app on their site and ask how to make it accessible to the blind community. The site is applevis.com Good luck. I hope this helps and is informal and I’d love to be a beta tester for accessibility.

great at first

very promising app but last part of the first practice had no sound at all. the exercise required sound. everything was working on my end, so must be a glitch within the app…?

Just so much pop ups at beginning

I wanted to start it but they made it harder to navigate and I want a app that will go straight to practicing

Great sound

I wish there were more active guided lessons.

No ads version

Paints itelf as the duolingo for pitch training, but only had a paid version. Still makes you go through an initial “assessment” before it tells you that.

Vibe Coded Garbage

Pay to play. Session memory bug wipes progress if you close the app. Hot garbage. Avoid.

Teacher in training

Let’s see

Please contact me

I did not get a subscription reminder and it took my money please contact me I would like a refund and you can take my account I don’t want the app I just want a refund

Paywall

I installed this app which is free and, after answering some questions, the all too familiar pay for yet another subscription. This is getting so tedious.

Faster paced than I’d like but still hugely beneficial

Trill has given me a huge boost in confidence in my musical abilities and brought me so much more enjoyment to listening to and playing music. My progress wasn’t as fast as many of the creators promoting the app online. And after weeks using the app I’m still not to the point where I can recognize chords beyond major and minor. But practice recognizing pitches and intervals has really upped my ability to play melodies by ear and read musical notation more quickly. I wish its learning journey was slower and deeper. Some of the steps in the journey feel like huge jumps. I end up spending most of my time in the practice section of the app doing a variety of exercises closer to the level of ability I’m at. But that’s mostly a minor inconvenience rather than a major bug. Very much recommend the app.

Good for beginner, intermediate and advanced

👍

Stop asking to rate!!

Asks every minute to “leave a review” like bro I just got the app chill out

Great practice

I get a lot wrong but im getting better every day

AI graphics, incorrect notation

Professional musician with a composition degree, was hoping to refresh my ear training routine. Thought maybe I could look past the AI slop images because this is a cool concept, but in my very first lesson they notated an augmented 3rd and called it a perfect 4th. Definitely either AI operated or developed hastily. Either way, don’t trust your ear training with this thing. Avoid.

So far so good

Asking for a review after the first 10 minutes is premature. Ask me in 10 days.

Huge paywall before you even try it

They make you commit before trying it. Also, took 5 minutes just to get to that pay page. They ask a million questions for a fake “customized plan.” No thank you.

Doesn’t teach anything

I really wanted to like this app, but the bottom line is it doesn’t actually do any real teaching. All lessons are basically just throwing tones at you randomly and having you guess what they are. The initial “lesson” seemed promising as it started with just 3 intervals, but then immediately the lessons jump to random octaves and unless you are good at identifying by ear to begin with (in which case you wouldn’t be using the app) you end up just rolling the dice and getting frustrated.

On top of the that, the UI/design is ripped off of Duolingo wholesale while somehow missing the parts of that design that work.

Also, the audio (arguably one of the most important aspects in an app like this) is terrible.

Immediately incoherent

Testing it out to see if it would be useful for my students. The app played a harmonic interval (P5) and the choices were: “small jump”, “medium jump”, and “big jump” (maybe it was “large”). Anyway these choices only make sense for a melodic interval. This was the first exercise the app offered. I am glad i checked it out before putting this confused tool in the hands of a child.

annoying

i find it frustrating when apps will make u do a quiz to set things up but right before u can start they make u pay.
