Ratings and reviews

I was able to play the rhythm part of sheet music after lesson 1. I have never been able to read music well. After 55% thru the first lesson, I played the treble portion of a When Sunny Gets Blue from the sheet music. I actually read the notes to play! This method is awesome. I absolutely uninstalled Flowkey, Simply Piano, and one other because this app yielded results immediately. It really teaches you to read the notes! If you want to learn to read the notes, this is your app.

The idea is great but if you are using this trainer to learn to play the piano it will be confusing. I set it for a classic staff with piano keys to indicate notes, and immediately ran into a limitation: the note indicates a "C" one octave above middle C, but requires that you tap what should be middle C. I get that there are space limitations in a phone app, but I can just see beginning students struggling to figure out why that C note should be played an octave below.

I think your music app actually helps people to read music better. But I guess I put to much into it than I'm aware of. Only if you want to read music better. But there are skills to memorizing and actually learning to read music better. You know hand and eye coordination. And if your a child you can learn it 123. It just takes 5 or 10 minutes of your time. To incorporate inside of you. And really learn. And I think that's the real reward. Actually learning to read the music and playing music.
