Open the app. Play piano. Honest Piano is free to try. One small one-time purchase unlocks all 88 keys forever — no subscription, no ads, no account, no upsells. That's the whole deal, and you just read all of it. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Most piano apps want a monthly fee for a piano that never changes. This one works the way an instrument should: you buy it once, and it's yours. PLAYS OVER EVERYTHING Put on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube — anything. Honest Piano plays right over it without pausing your music or turning it down. Hear a song, find the chords, play along. RECORD THE IDEA BEFORE IT'S GONE One tap records what you play — clean audio, no microphone, no background noise. Your recordings save right to your device and share anywhere. A REAL INSTRUMENT • All 88 keys, sampled from a real grand piano • Touch-sensitive keys — play soft, play bold, it responds • Pitch bend and mod wheels on every keyboard • Sustain pedal, zoom from 1 octave to the full 88 • Two-keyboard mode: bass in one hand, melody in the other MORE THAN A PIANO Strings, harpsichord, guitar, bass, synths, organ, pads, glockenspiel — and real drum kits with genuine cymbal recordings. Pick a different sound for each keyboard row. A METRONOME THAT MEANS IT Any tempo from 1–200. Real time signatures, subdivisions, and six levels of swing — modeled after the click you'd find in a pro studio. Practice like you mean it. PRIVATE, ACTUALLY No account. No tracking. No data collected. The app doesn't know who you are and doesn't want to. Made by a working musician who wanted a piano app with no nonsense. Open the app. Play piano.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PianoPath at none against Honest Piano's 1. PianoPath also leads on iOS requirement (14.0.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
