About

Benot

Benot turns ear training into a game you actually come back to. Benot, a little singing note, plays you an interval, a chord, a scale degree or a short melody. You pick what you heard, or sing it back. Get it wrong and Benot lets you hear your answer and the right one side by side, because that contrast is how ears really learn. JOURNEY Four stages, 32 short levels, about two minutes each: • Intervals, from octaves to tritones, then inside a key. • Solfège: scale degrees after a cadence, in major and minor, ending with degrees you sing back. • Chords: major, minor, sevenths and inversions, then chords by their job in a key (I, IV, V, vi, ii) and what comes after I. • Melody: play back phrases of up to eight notes, with rhythm, in any key. A quick level test on first launch lets you skip what you already know. Finish every stage and Mastery opens: mixed, hard, 1.5× XP. PLAY • Survival: three lives, harder and faster every five right answers. • Daily challenge: one minute, the same set for everyone today, measured against your own last 30 days. • Sing it back: Benot plays, you sing, the mic shows how close you are with friendly tips (higher, lower, louder). LISTEN & LEARN A sound book for every interval, chord and degree: hear it, feel it, compare it with its look-alike, and earn a stamp with a 3-question check. IT REMEMBERS FOR YOU • Spaced repetition: what you learned comes back for a check-up after 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16 days; what you miss comes back sooner. • Difficulty tunes itself per stage. • Daily goal and streak, with streak freezes that cover a missed day. • A Sunday recap with one real number about your ear, and a gentle daily reminder that stays quiet on days you've played. MADE TO FEEL GOOD • Real piano sound, plus organ, guitar and voice: pick one instrument or mix them for variety. • Playful feedback, XP, levels, badges and outfits for Benot. • Light and dark mode, English and Vietnamese. Works fully offline. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no ads, no tracking. Your progress stays on your device. The microphone is used only while you sing; nothing is recorded or sent anywhere.
