I'm really surprised this isn't rated higher - it is amazing if for nothing but the piano function. You have to open the app and tilt it sideways without hitting the next button to get it to just play, but sustains beautifully, and is quite accurate.

I am so glad to have found this! I always play this with a friend when by a piano...trying to guess the note that was played. Awesome
Good idea, poor execution. (or is it the free version? Not sure )

I deleted as after my first use of it.
Don't waste your time with the free version

The free version is completely limiting in which chords it shows you and which key signatures it displays. It doesn't play any exercises unless you pay for the full version. I would be more apt to buy the full version if I knew it just limited the number of exercises but at least showed full functionality. I can get more out of my pitch pipe and theory book!
Meh. Save your disk space.

It really doesn't do anything. No instructions to work what functionality it has. Yes, the piano is kind of cool, but you can only see an octave at a time and have to shift the screen yourself. That means it's not really all that playable simply as a piano. I am interested in buying the bigger program, but not without playing with it first at $15. This free version is poor marketing for the big version.
Needs work

I have been using the pitch quiz successfully for some time, so I think the people claiming it "doesn't do anything" just aren't looking hard enough. That said, this app is far from being production-quality. If I were Apple I wouldn't have approved it in the first place. The reason I'm writing this, however, is to point out one particular bug. The pitch quiz is not random. Every time I start a pitch quiz after starting the app, I get the same sequence of notes: F, Bb, E B, C... If there is any random number generating code in this at all, it's probably not being seeded properly. And yeah, the guitar sound is disgusting.
this is a good application

too easy for me cuz i have perfect pitch, but it can really help those trying to develop.
