Quiztones: EQ Ear Training

Basic navigable UI, no ads so far (been like 3 days), Easy to repeat. Lots of different sounds to train the ear with as well. Unless you have a dying oath to another app there should be no reason you don’t pick this up.

A Review

I’ll start that Quiztones is an excellent app for ear frequency training and has been super helpful for my learning. My biggest issue is that they’ve added no new features or additions/functionality to the app in the past year that I’ve been a paid subscriber. As it stands, it has two tests for identifying octave, 1/3 octave frequencies as well as tests for changes in gain level, and EQ boosts/cuts. I emailed the founder about a year ago with suggestions for the app including stat tracking, accuracy counters, etc. He responded saying they are working on a score tracking functionality but the app is no different than it was from a year ago. With programs like SoundGym available online (and no mobile app), QuizTones has so much potential to add so much more usefulness to their product in a part of the app store that sees no other current competition. I really want to keep using this app but my training has stagnated with the lack of variety offered here in comparison to SoundGym, with no sign of exciting development being offered by QuizTones.
