Best app out there!!!!
Baastik

Been using this app on and off for years now and my ear has gotten to the point where i can hold my own in sessions with other guys that got their training at a college. this app does not bother you with annoying notifications to tell you to practice, if you're not motivated then this app doesn't sugar coat it. It take lots of practice And it's not gonna make you a good musician but it has the tools to give you an amazing ear.


Good design, but poor tones
Smartest1ever

You will have to use your phone speaker with this one, because the piano tones in this app are absolutely awful in headphones. Probably should have tuned it first.


Can teach even the thick-headed
Annie from Queens

Wow. This app is changing my world! I’ve been in composing classes and in awe of all the students who just hear the chord types off the bat. That seemed like such an unattainable dream. I have been using this for about five weeks now and the results are astounding. I got stuck on phase two in “easy mode” for about ten days, trying to distinguish between harmonic fourths and fifths. I tried about a half hour a day and got so frustrated and felt so stupid. But one day I had a breakthrough and can hear SO much better! Chords and relationships that were opaque are crystal clear now. This is really helping my composing and the pitch when I sing. It’s also really helping me retain melodies that I write for much longer. Now that I can hear all the jumps in them, my brain can stop floundering and remember so much more. This app was EXACTLY what I needed and will highly recommend it to my friends.


I like it, but…
Puzzled Patron

I got all the way through “Easy Mode” and then started “Classic Mode,” which is definitely more difficult. There, I am stuck in Level 1 (of 4), specifically on Chapter 4, Major and Minor Chord Inversions. I can easily distinguish between triad inversions presented in melodic (arpeggio) form, but cannot do it when presented in harmonic (chord) form. I have probably tried 100 times or more. I think the problem is that I am hearing overtones of the piano, rather than just the notes struck. In any event, I wish the app creators or someone would provide some help getting past this point. Frustrated


Crashes too much
rbfne102

Error. Over and over and over again. Nice program, if you can get it to open.


Worth the money
pleaseappleletthisnicknamework

It’s good.


App is crashing after update
Musician25

EDIT: the problem is fixed. amazing app {I can’t use the app anymore, I am at the major and minor chord inversions and it crashes whenever I try to begin the exercise. otherwise it’s fantastic}


Great app but glitched and lost everything
Bobete

I lost all progress because the app would no longer load. This is on iPhone x


Very good ear training app!
puzzleshark

I’ve downloaded and tried a lot of ear training apps, and this one is the best by far! One feature though that would be very useful is if for the chord training challenges there was a setting that allowed you to see the actual chord that was being played when the chord type is revealed i.e G7#5 rather than just 7#5


Looks like a great app but...
