iNoteTrainer

I’ve bought and tried them all, but oddly enough, this is the only one that allows me to practice bass and treble clefs at once with a piano keyboard. Being a timed game makes it addicting to beat my own score. During the years that this app was in-operable, there was no replacement. My only request would be to have an option to increase the octaves to the full extent of an 88 key piano. While you’re getting fancy, also please consider (perhaps as a separate app) a similar timed game to select the correct chord by name with an option to include inversions. We need this. I would try to write it myself if I had the time.

I've had your app for years and been using it a lot. Once it stopped working along with the new iOS updates it was saddening. Then I noticed you finally updated it! Thanks so much for updating your app! I love it and I still use it to tune my ears and practice. You rock

I got this app early on. As professional musician and teacher I must say, there is tons of potential with this app. However, as I use it there are 3 things that I notice that really need work (hence only 2 stars). I hope that either Pokmis can implement some of these fixes, or perhaps some other developer will. Here are my problems with this app: 1. The version I got only has no options for preferences (I can't view the 4 different screens available in the screenshots). Either I am missing something or this is false advertising. I even tried to download the program again to no avail 2. The notes that pop out are not random - they follow the same sequence every time - use the app enough and you will start to memorize the sequence - this defeats the whole purpose of the program. 3. I tried to go to the website for support. I got nothing but a page containing a name and no links. What's up with that? No support or contact info? Kind of lame for a legit developer. Other than that, good concept. Want to know what the ultimate sight reading program would be? To use the iphone's sound recognition abilities to test sight reading using a real instrument (guitar, piano, etc) now that would be a 5 start app! what do you think Simon Bone, any chance of fixing this app?

This little gadget is absolutely amazing. I've messed around playing by ear for ages, but iNoteTrainer taught me note position, name and attached both to a pitch faster than years of piano lessons. There is room for improvement. The main menu needs a little work... too many clicks to change the level and/or type of training. Those options could be accomplished with a few separate radio buttons on the main menu. It should definitely have an optional profile mode for wider keys (don't tie it to the orientation of the iphone, make it a conscious selection). These are all 'nice to haves'... the one thing that Pokmis NEEDS to add is a countdown to start. (a la Brain Trainer). Still -- don't let the lack of these features keep you from buying this ridiculously useful little app.

This is the best app out there that I've found so far to memorize note locations on the piano. I like some of the stuff in the new update: horizontal, fixed staff lines, more. I like how you can create your own range of notes to test yourself on too. The only downside is that the new update makes the app feel slow and bogged down when navigating through the menus - and seem they seem less iPhone-like (liked the old menus better). -------- Problems with it not saving custom levels talked about below were fixed in the last version. This is one of my most used apps. Love it.
