Recent reviews

You should assign a color to every note of the scale degree, so that it gives a shape to the notes and makes learning them fun too."

seems good so far. Not giving it 5 since it asked me so early that I can't really rate it properly yet

Great app! Simply plays you a cadence, then a note, then you identify the note. Lots of options for how the notes are identified, including piano key, Roman numeral, solfege, and some others I haven't tried. I bought the full version, so entirely add free and I have already made special lessons to study my trouble notes. If you want to learn to identify your IVs from your Vs (or your VIs from you Vs 😬) at least try the free version!
