Appmuse

This is an incredibly useful ear training tool and something that I've convinced all of my peers to download. You should too!

This app is wonderful - love how customizable it is. Great for beginners or those who just need to warm up their ears.

A musicians best friend!

All three training excercices work GREAT and after a while u start actually getting some right :D

Put in the time and it will bring you along

This is a fantastic app for ear training. I use it on guitar. One complaint is that it doesn't hear if you play in a low octave. But if you play in the octaves it actually plays in, or an octave below or two above, it seems fine. I like the look of the app. And I find it helpful that it displays the first note on the staff, because I am trying to learn to read music at the same time I am trying to learn to play by ear, so it helps in both. It would be cool if it displayed the clef, though, or if you could change the clef in which the notes are displayed. Overall, an indispensable tool for learning musicians, or seasoned ones who want to keep up their chops. Show more

The tonal memory exercises are okay, but the app doesn't seem to "hear" very well below bass-clef D, and the app only plays treble clef melodies, so if you're taking a melody down an octave with your voice or instrument, it can be a little frustrating. Also, the tonal memory melody exercises create very non-musical lines for you to repeat back; this makes for good ear-training, but the melodies are not realistic. Show more

I have a 4s and I just upgraded to ios6 like an idiot. This is my favorite app to practice my vocals but I now have to try to recalibrate it every time. Also calibration only works 20 percent of the time. Thanks for making this app! Show more

The best one, hands down.

Very useful app. The ability to train on phrases, not just intervals is a huge plus and can really help bridge one's ear training from an disconnected endeavor to it actually relating to real music. Pitch recognition is great function though sometimes it doesn't work very accurately. Overall, a great app! Show more

Pitch recognition makes it better than all the rest.

Well-designed and very useful.

Excellent app. I second the idea of having a keyboard option for public places practice. Also, would love having a super easy version when it plays the note, then gives you time to try a few notes before you push a button to have it tell you if the final note you choose is right. Not sure that explanation made sense... Show more

So good it's worth paying for. With website supplemental articles and online java app it has almost everything needed to become an ear training master. I would pay $$ to see the rhythm feature added to the iPhone app. Would be nice if keyboard response was allowed for ear training in public places (subway) w headphones. Show more

Truly

This is a great app. You would miss out as a musician not to have it. A little practice each day and you'll improve your ears ridiculously. I enjoy everything about it. It would easily be worth $5. Thank you. Show more

This free app is better than the paid options! I love how the emphasis is playing what you hear, rather than naming intervals/chords. This is far more practical. I've been using it every morning for 30 minutes for the past week and it's quite an enjoyable way to practice. Being able to set intervals/chords harmonically or melodically is really cool. The best feature is probably the random melody play-along, I'm only doing 4 note melodies, but the options on the app allow you to make things REAL hard if you've got good ears already. I use this app with an unamplified electric guitar, and the iPhone does have some issues recognizing notes from the lower octave, but that doesn't really matter to me. One feature I would LOVE to have would be the ability to have the app mix ascending and descending intervals/chords so I can practice them both ways without having to play around with the settings. As it stands, this is the best ear training app and I have no idea why the author isn't charging for it. Download this now. Show more

This app is wonderful--by far the best ear training app ever created. The design and accuracy are flawless. There are no ads! I finally feel more comfortable with my musical ear, all thanks to this app and its extremely talented designer. Ah, it's just so beautiful... Show more

For performance ear training, there is not an app that can touch this. His website is great too. Thank you!

Tried this app on my phone to learn ear training on-the-go. The notes were very clear but the interaction on the scale was non existent. For iPhone use I didn't find the app very useful. Two stars are for the tones. Show more
