Great to hear you have been using it for that time! I’m actively working on this. If you would like to try out some changes you can contact me through the app (settings) and I can send you a beta

It's one of my "North Star" goals but there is a lot of work between now and then. A middle stage may be the ability to record songs on the app which can be saved for later.

The original version only took a few days but it was really basic. I don’t really know how to measure how long this took because it was such a slow process over the years. It’s gotta be many hundreds of hours or even more at this point. I’v

I'd say the best thing to do would be to get a keyboard you enjoyed and make sure it was compatible with iOS. The quality of instrument will hopefully keep you interested for all of the learning/playing.

I mostly just solved my own problem for a lot of those years and it was always a bonus that others used it.

I hear you on the other instruments and guitar request. I tried making a violin app years ago and it was a tiny fraction of the traffic of the piano version which I'm guessing is common theme amongst other developers. That's not a

This is all really great feedback and it's great to hear you've used my app! A couple of things: 1. I'm currently testing a new way of generating practices with some patterns and elements that make it feel more musical. I

Honestly I've always felt it wasn't done enough. It still isn't done enough against what I'd want but obviously I was years late on when I should have shown it haha

Great feedback. I’m working on a new way to generate lessons. It’s better but even when it’s out it’ll mostly just be a structure I’ll be able to build on. I agree on the metronome and it’s high on my list of TODO’s. I think it would be ver

Yeah these are things I'm working on. The lack of dotted notes and rests are a weakness in doing any real songs which is why that section is a little lacking. I'm testing a new way to build lessons altogether which will be a big i

I completely agree I'm being too timid. With that said it was 100% free for many years and I always had in my mind that I would get it to a certain level before being more aggressive. Because I never really had as much time on this pro

Well it’s an area I’m working to improve. It works well for me but everyone’s acoustic instrument and device is a little different. I’d say it isn’t worth getting a new keyboard to use midi for this purpose. Acoustic pianos are awesome and

I've only recently localized the app but only the contents of the app. I'm sure there are a lot of easy improvements on discoverability I'm missing out on.

You may be able to sing to it but since it's assuming the instrument to be in tune (piano) it may be slightly off and still register since it's estimating which note is most correct.

My app appears at the top of a search if you specify sight reading but if you are searching for "learn piano" or similar keywords it will be no where near the top

I know what sight reading factory is but I haven't personally used it. In the app you can isolate the Treble staff for practice/lessons so it would work for practice with what you read on trumpet (I believe)

The mic works on the standard 440 tuning and converts the input to its midi representation. Trying to understand your question but the mic doesn't really care about the do, re, me but rather that it's the right frequency for the d

It'll probably come back to you fast. My app is best to learn the note (letter/octave) of what's on the staff and mixed with practice on a real piano should get you back to reading
