Pitch Quest
Read full descriptionHide full description
Pitch Quest is an ear-training app that turns listening practice into a leveling-up game. Tune in to every note and light up your musical constellation. From single-note recognition to interval judgment and melody recall, Pitch Quest guides you step by step through clear level-based paths. Each session is a mini challenge: listen, answer, earn points and stars, and watch your progress grow. Three Training Paths • Absolute Pitch — Hear a single note and identify C, D, E and sharps/flats, gradually expanding to wider ranges and faster response times. • Relative Pitch — Hear the distance between two notes, starting with basic intervals and advancing to complex ones, harmonic intervals, and ascending/descending direction. • Melody Memory — Hear a melody and judge if it's the same, then advance to multiple-choice recognition and full recall, eventually tackling longer sequences. Each path has 10 progressive levels — from easy warm-ups to ultimate challenges. Built-in Lessons Structured lessons cover note names, semitones, whole tones, interval concepts, and melody memory basics. After each lesson, the app recommends your next step so you always know where to go. Personal Profile Track every session with scores, stars, high scores, and daily streaks. Wrong answers are logged with helpful hints, and an achievement wall celebrates every milestone. 128 Instrument Sounds 128 real instrument sounds built in — piano, guitar, violin, flute, saxophone, and more. Practice with the sound of the instrument you're learning so your ears adapt faster.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pitch Quest at none against Morse Decoded's 1. Pitch Quest also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 27 months). Morse Decoded's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price there is nothing between them.
