LEARN THROUGH FAMILIAR MUSIC Explore practice arrangements of existing pieces, with score sources and excerpts identified. Listen to an example, choose a range of measures and repeat it. Drum songs use educational accompaniments. After a one-bar count-in, tap the pads with the metronome and melody and get timing feedback on your screen taps.

Start with a small group of notes, listen to a reference and practice at your own pace. LISTEN, THEN SING Play a short score and sing it back. Get feedback on pitch and rhythm, review your attempt and try again. Adjust the tempo, show note names or focus on rhythm while you find your confidence. BUILD THE BASICS Practice notes, durations and intervals in short rounds. Beginner mode introduces spaces and lines step by step. Answer by singing or use the on-screen choices. LEARN AS YOU GO Explore short lessons on the staff, clefs, octaves, voice ranges, key signatures, rhythm and intervals. Listen to examples and connect each idea to your practice. MAKE PRACTICE COMFORTABLE Choose a vocal range that suits your voice and begin gently. Follow your recent results and personal bests, saved on your device. Practice and lessons work offline.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Solfejo at none against Read Notes's 1. Solfejo also leads on ads (none vs shown). Read Notes's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
