Pros and cons of Note Trainer - sight reading for piano app for iPhone and iPad

Note Trainer - sight reading for piano app good for

I wish that the keyboard expanded in landscape mode (which isnt currently supported). However, I really like that the keyboard only makes a sound when I hit the correct note. Im beginning to associate written notes with actual sounds, which makes sight reading MUCH easier.
I like the training part of this app that helps familiarize you with the notes before you start the game! Of course, if youre already well versed you can go straight to the different levels. I was never a strong sight reader but I already feel a bit more confident :)
One of best sight reading app for sure, heres some thoughts to improve: 1. Landscape mode would be great. 2. Sound of note need to be louder. 3. Practice mode with bass and tremble combined? Keep it up man, thanks for the app!

Some bad moments

Im really learning how to read music notes with this app. Have improved my speed after a few days. Worth it!
Great game for learning piano! Im getting much better with practice.
This is the best note trainer I have seen, and I have gone through many. The notes travel along the staff and you have to touch the piano keyboard on the proper key before the note disappears off the screen. Then as you progress they come faster and faster, then many at once. This forces you to learn like you never thought possible, uncovering weak areas that are not obvious with all the other static apps out there. And Basically only this app mimics the way our brains would react to rapid real life sight reading. And also this app works just as well with string instruments as this is still the best app to train the brain for rapid real life sight reading and forcing you to strengthen weak areas on the note staff that we all have. i play piano cello and viola, And find this useful for not only piano obviously, but also just as much for learning bass clef sight reading for cello which is still a weak area of mine
Ive tried out many of these type of apps in the hope that I would get something out of it, but this is definitely the best one yet! I play piano by ear and have trouble sight reading but this app is really helping me a lot :) I recommend it to anyone who wishes to improve their sight reading skills!
Very buggy program! It flashes five notes and freezes. We paid money and would like a refund for this piece of junk. Save your money and buy something that works.
This app is a fantastic way to learn and quickly identify notes on the staff, bass and treble. Sight reading is excruciating for me, but after 3-4 days of using this app (a lot) my reading has become significantly less painful. This simple app has helped more with note recognition than anything Ive ever done or used before. Thank you!!! I do wish it had an option to adjust the speed - as I get better, I want to go faster!
