Note brainer is a very useful application that is a must have for people learning or maintaining thier music reading skills. My only compliant is that the notes don't go higher than one line over the staff but that's me being picky for a free app it is great.

I've struggled for a long time with not being able to read music. This is the only thing that's ever worked for me. It's really helped me finally start to memorize notes quickly without even realizing it. I just bought the new pro version! Thanks!!!


Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Excellent application. I just bought a very expensive electric piano, and wanted to justify it's expense by actually learning how to play it... Doing quite well. This app helps beautifully and I am considering buying your full version.


This helps a lot,

I've been reading music for a few months now and it's been quite a challenge. This app really helps though. I always practice whenever I have nothing else to do, maybe at the doctor's office or dentist, etc. It's definitely helpful even not having the full version. I'd recommend it for anyone trying to learn how to read music.


Excellent customer service

Great app!

Does what I need it to, teaches to read notes. Also love that it can help you develop better pitch by turning off the notes & only hearing them. Would like to see sharps, flats too!
