Can you play what you hear? HearBack helps you listen closely, rebuild a phrase and hear where your answer differs. Start with a short piano phrase and a missing note. No instrument, microphone or account is needed for local practice. LISTEN, MOVE, DISCOVER Repair a melody, fill a gap, reorder sound pieces or trace a phrase. Match intervals, rebuild chords, find a motif and follow a melody through accompaniment. Drag notes directly or use the keyboard and button alternatives. HEAR THE CHORDS Name chord progressions by their place in the key: I, IV, V and the minor chords, from a short ending to smooth inversions. MAKE THE RHYTHM YOURS Four clicks count in, then a rhythm plays over them. Tap it back, scored only on the spacing of your taps, or place it on a beat grid, untimed, and hear your answer. Play remembered melodies back after a count-in. FORTY SHORT LESSONS Eight units lead from clear pitch contrasts to close intervals, longer melodies, moving roots and chord inversions. An optional placement check finds your starting point. Learning offers unlimited replay. NEW MUSIC EVERY WEEK A themed drop arrives every Monday: three short sessions in a new key, the same music for every listener. A new collection of lessons and original phrases appears on the first of each month, without an app update. A COACH FOR YOUR EAR HearBack notices the tasks you miss most and the notes, intervals or chords you mix up, then builds a short practice around them. A monthly recap shows how your first answers changed. BUILD YOUR DAILY PRACTICE Earn XP, grow your level and collect milestones. Your six-question daily mix balances tricky differences, review and new material. Replays never earn extra XP. Optional reminders skip days with completed study. LISTEN TOGETHER Sign in with Apple for free competition. Everyone gets the same six-question ranked daily round with two listens per question; correct first answers earn points. Weekly leagues count your best five days and monthly standings your best twenty. Duel a friend or quick-match another listener, with clearly marked rival bots when nobody is free. Pro never improves competitive scores or access. PLAY, JUST FOR FUN Draw melodies up to eight bars long across two octaves with four voices, change the key, scale and tempo, then save and share sketches. Start from famous public-domain melodies such as Für Elise, Ode to Joy and In the Hall of the Mountain King, ready to loop. Play is separate from training and stays on your iPhone.
