Great app! Would be awesome if it had note recognition thru sound, and even better thru Midi compatability. Edit: you should also add a mode that shows both clefs the way sheet music often does so we can learn both at the same time, it is a little different learning just one at a time. And maybe a hint button (with a visual cue?) where if you press it, it shows some or all of the note labels e.g. just the spaces or just the lines, or both.

Thank you for the review! Being able use a physical instrument would indeed be awesome for practice and I do aspire to implement that in the future. Edit: These additional ideas are good. I'm especially interested in adding a hint button as I've found that it feels bad to just randomly guess when I don't know the correct anwser.

amazing app, can teach sight reading individual notes quite quickly. it would be great if we had more stats available, the daily info is good but it would be good to compare my progress more frequently. additionally having a mode with some simple melodies would be great to test my skills when I'm not around a real instrument.

Thanks for review and suggestions. I've been considering adding some sort of rhythm practice mode which could work nicely with your melody idea!

First of all: It's really user friendly, a big thank you to the developers and the team. Moving on to a request of mine: There's just one option that's missing for me in the settings; One that allows me to hide the note names on the piano keyboard. It would be really nice, if it would be possible to add such a feature in the near future. Thanks again & kind regards

I'm glad you like the app. That sounds like a great suggestion and it shouldn't be too hard to implement. I'll try to include it in a future update!
