User Reviews

Sight Reading Trainer is praised for effectively helping piano players improve their sight reading skills using real keyboards, with minimal ads and free access. Users appreciate its ease of use with digital pianos and the authentic practice approach. However, multiple reviews highlight limitations such as only 1-minute practice intervals, poor note recognition especially for certain notes and instruments, lack of support for instruments beyond piano, and absence of customizable features like practice duration and dual-hand exercises. Some hardware-related usability issues and software glitches were also noted. Overall, the app is helpful but has room for feature and compatibility improvements.

Pros

Great for improving sight reading skills, especially for piano players.
Works well with external or digital pianos without needing to plug in anything.
Minimal or no ads enhancing user experience.
Free to use with good core functionality.
Helps users practice sight reading effectively with real piano keys rather than on-screen buttons.

Cons

Limited practice duration (only 1 minute) without option to extend time.
Poor or no support for instruments other than piano, especially string and transposing wind instruments.
Issues recognizing some notes correctly (e.g., F note underrepresented, lowest C flat note often misrecognized).
Lack of advanced features: no dual hand playing, no customizable settings like time duration or clef range.
App orientation and hardware plugging part unstable; may cause physical issues with cables.

Not bad for beginners, I wish there was an option for both hands to play together. Also don't know why but even if I play the right note it shows wrong(red).

Great app. Its really taking my sight reading skills to next level. I would really love to have more features with premium version.

Perfect app. But reducing 2 stars because you can't use it without an instrument. I just wanted to learn to read music. Didn't wanted to learn any instruments and so I don't have any. Please improve your app and add option to have some buttons indicating the notes. This will enable users to learn on the go, when they don't have an instrument.
