Too much BS

Enough already. Just show me the exercises. Also somehow I got billed when I wanted a 7 day trial?

So far so Good

Just started the app and the pre training seems very promising. Looking forward to updating my review to include greater results.

Pitchy dawg

I like the piano sound replication, it doesn’t sound tinny.

Too aggressive

I just wanted to try it out. The app is very aggressive about trying to get you to sign up to even see any of it. It also looks suspicious that the app asks for you to rate it before you even use anything in the app then most of the written reviews I see here are 1-2 stars complaining about how the app doesn’t actually make good on what it says it’s supposed to do.

Need improvement

I couldn't hear anything. I checked my settings and reloaded the app. Very disappointed

Standard trap

Asks for a star rating even before you try anything in the app. Long questionnaire before letting you know that oh look this is a trial. You need a subscription. I am not subscribing to something that I can’t even try first. Even for a “free” trial.

Interesting!

As a veeeery lazy musician, THANK YOU

Nice try

This app, presented as a game, fails in several respects. It doesn’t really TEACH anything. It’s just a series of repetitions of the same material over and over, with
no attempt to help the user actually get better. Pitch recognition is a complex activity, very subjective to each person’s experience and imagination. The app does not address pitch recognition complexities, it just keeps throwing random pitches at the user, who is forced to merely guess and discover that they were wrong. The app doesn’t even seem to recognize which pitches are consistently missed, so there is no automatic repetition of problem areas that I could discern. And, once you get going, there are NO DISCUSSIONS, NO EVALUATIONS, NADA. It feels like I am blindfolded, throwing darts to hit a target, and all I ever hear is MISSED AGAIN! Finally, the electronic keyboard they used to play chords and scales was either really cheap (I.e. terrible) or in need of repair. There are notes in the lowest octave which sound like a hammer hitting a bell. The resulting overtones interfere with the accurate presentation of intervals and chords in particular. I should have waited before falling for the yearly subscription..I am stuck paying for an entire year, while still needing to find a good pitch training app. My advice: LOOK ELSEWHERE.

Like Duo but functions poorly

Sound does not always work and app has to be restarted to fix. Playing sound to repeat it doesn’t work well as it pauses the sound. Playing the song should start over at the top of the sound file each time. It doesn’t teach you.. it just tests you. Frustrating experience!

No free version, but many ?s

I don’t mind a paid app, but this is one of those apps that asks you a lot of questions, gets you excited and then you can’t do anything at all without a trial or paying. I was getting really excited to start and then it was a bit of a crash when I realized it was another “personalization” before a mandatory trial. I know apps need to make money, and this probably works to make people feel invested before you ask, but I feel like that approach wastes my time if I’m not in the position to pick up another subscription. I do think it’s a great idea for an app though!

No free tier or content

Requires subscription right away, so no way to tell if it’s any good. They should make this more clear before requiring you go through sign up.

Not free

The app is only free for a few days, then turns into a subscription service. Advertised to be like “Duolingo” for music. No. Duolingo has completely free options. Immediately deleted the app.

Nine app

Wrong

Anytime I’m asked for a review before I’ve had a chance to use it, I give it a single star

thief

it demands control over some of your apps to focus your time and won’t let you skip it

The demo doesn’t make noise. I can’t take a quiz if I can’t hear the notes and chords being played.

Couldn’t hear anything.

Doesn’t do what it claims

First, it changed me for the whole year when I only wanted a monthly subscription. You can’t set up Bluetooth sound. The exercises are a joke. You can’t hear the higher octave sound. Some chords sound the same.

Great App

Excellent app but please add an option to redo an exercise once completed. It’s to time consuming to go through the menu and find the specific exercise you want to practice again

Greedy

Wanted you to rate them first. Then force you to pay first before starting the trial. Wasted my time.

Sticking

The I’m ready button is stuck below the visible screen and I can’t move forward
