User Reviews:
“I survived my first year of music theory with this, and am still constantly using it this year as well. It is nicely customizable and easy to use. There's a lot of material is covers. I absolutely love the ear training. It has been invaluable. Looks nice, too! This is the app to buy for Music Theory class.” – Whitney Huskey

Beginners quickly become Pros
Users who are just learning music will be able to practice naming notes on the piano and on the staff.
Sharpen your ears
The ear training section provides many challenges for the more advanced student. It takes a sharp ear to identify altered dominant chords and modal scales quickly. For jazz musicians we’ve included the modes from the melodic minor scale and all kinds of extended chords. There is even a tempo quiz to identify beats per minute by assigning a number to a click track.
Increase your skills by competing with others
Various exercises propel you to higher scores, which you can post to compete for top ratings. Who will be #1 in the world this month? Could be you!

Doesn’t work on iPad Pro
Sam Carullo
Ear training does not work on iPad Pro at all. There is no ringer switch on this device so that does not fix it. Only the chord section works. Considering I just spent a decent amount to purchase the app, I would really like for this to work. I’ve tried everything in the settings already.
Cool app, but needs a fix

I have used this app on and off for years, and it really is a lot of fun and very useful. However, on my iPhone X, the volume in the intervals and tempo ear training isn’t working properly. The volume doesn’t respond to the controls on the phone, and it is nearly imperceptibly quite... note: if you have this problem on your phone... remember to turn the volume down before you switch to the chord ear training... volume works just great there!!!! Please fix! I really like this app, and i would love to be able to use it again.
Ear training notes?

You have your training but without training on specific tones? I bought this to try out for my students but my students are all kids and this is not a kid friendly app and I would really appreciate my money back because even as an adult player this application is not intuitive. I’m pretty unhappy with the money I spent.
Good job

This is a great app! I have experienced no problems with it and it is fun and easy to use! I have learned so much! Great app!
BAD IDEA, guys...

This app recently made an update that REMOVED features it originally had (jazz chords & scales), which is why I bought it to begin with and recommended it to my music students. Never again! So frustrating to be told you have to pay extra for a feature you once had! Any way to UNDO an update??

The old version was soooo much better. I hope Dr. Clifft writes a new one soon. The piano doesn't sound as good anymore. Ear training scales used to do up and down the scales which is so much more helpful than just up. Also found a typo in ear training. Should say Phrygian but is missing the "r". And the graphics of the old one were better. Wish I could revert to original version.
Outstanding

I have read good & bad reviews. All I can say is it is very good. I have learned a lot, user feedback has led to updates. THERE ARE NO IN-APP purchases that you have to buy or unlock-GET THE APP-I have nothing to do with nor do U know the developer- there are 2 great ones, this is one
Love this app!

This is my favorite game. Granted, I'm a music major, but I just love tightening up my skills and trying to beat others! I do not play games as a whole. Not even Words With Friends (lol). But this game is FUN and I keep returning to it. I don't usually spend money for any app, but this one is worth it! Glad I spent the money. The new format looks beautiful and I like that you can look ahead to the next note on the note names game. If you are a "music nerd" and want more to a music app than learning middle C, buy this app!
good app, happy abt recent upgrade

pleasant surprise to see app devs removing in app purchases in my opinion
Yessss!!!

I am an alum of USC's Jazz Studies program, and am proud a fellow Trojan made this app! I use it with my sax students all the time. I especially love the ear training tempo section... I'm trying to become less dependent on drummers when counting off tunes! As a suggestion... Maybe you could do a random rhythm and/or melodic sight reading section... Like where an audio clip plays a short (1 or 2 bar?) passage, and you have to pick the correct multiple choice notation and/or rhythm that was played over audio. That could be cool. It could even extend to 3 or 4 bars! Also, you could do a "Simon Says" sort of section, where the app plays 3 notes, then you play it back plus 3, then it plays back your 6 notes and adds three, then you have to play back it's 9 notes plus three, etc. That always really helped my ears. You could even get a microphone algorithm so that people could sing into the mic instead of using the piano, or a sax player like myself could play into it. Also, I would totally pay for extra content if it were reasonably priced, an truly worth the money! So many possibilities, keep up the good work!
