    Not happy
    Does not work as stated. Does not allow me to just do bass clef!

    Frustration
    Just purchased this up and really frustrated, not user friendly, and 6 year old cant practice and learn on her own. Not interactive app

    One-trick pony
    The app is great at what it does but it’s limited in scope. I’m a weak sight-reader but had no problem with “advanced” mode on this app, suggesting that there’s a lot more room to grow. I think it should include a feature for reading a note against a key signature, rather than just plain accidentals. It doesn’t seem to keep track of your strengths and weaknesses — I got quizzed on the exact same note three times in a row at one point. It would also be nice if it incorporated some “supermemo”-style tracking to quiz you more on the notes you miss and less on the notes you know. Show more

    Should be better
    I'm disappointed that this app contains some glaring bugs right off the bat. It's initially confusing because you're directed to begin by an arrow that points to nothing on the screen. By pressing buttons on opposite side of screen can you actually begin the game. The notes begin to appear well enough but after about ten notes the game sporadically hangs and more than one note appears (If it's quizzing chords that early in the first quiz it should be clearer; but it's not--it's a glitch).

    Terrific for adult beginner!
    The app has an elegant interface and lots of flexibility. I especially appreciate that you can scroll and access all parts of the keyboard and that more than one octave shows at a time. This helps spatial learners like me reinforce the keyboard position as well as the note name. Show more

    Great but...
    It would be perfect if you could set up more than one student. I have a son who has played for 2.5 years and just needs review and 2 sons that have been playing less than a year. It would be nice to be able to track individual progress. Show more

    Well done, but quirky
    The design is very well-done, and the program is exactly what I was looking for in a note learning app. There are a few occasional bugs that can interfere with it's usability (one required a forced quit). It would be nice if the keyboard could be locked, rather than scrolling horizontally to show 3+ octaves. That would help those of us with fat finges. Show more

    Better than flashcards
    This is a more thorough app than others I've been able to find. Even as an adult this is helping me relearn my notes. Love the choices of treble or bass clef or both. Great easy to use app. Show more
