Ear Training by Musicopoulos App Reviews

I think this is the most useable ear training app, which I bought several of them. But there are some serious problems about it. 1, why constantly rearrange the answers? It is meaningless, no one would want to cheat in this training. This is so annoying that I almost wanted to toss my ipad on the ground. 2, why do I have to change speed every time I open this app? 3, the hints on errors are totally useless, though the dev must have spent lot of time to collect them, I still dont want to appreciate them.

This is a great app!

This app certainly has the potential to be the best ear training app out there (as well as an incredibly useful tool for all musicians) but one main problem (that can be easily fixed) serves to currently squash all those hopes. When using the app, regardless of whatever ear training exercise youre doing (intervals, scales, chords) itll usually give you 4 selections to choose from. However it NEVER repeats!!!! Meaning, when it randomly selects one of the 4 intervals, scales, or chords for you to decipher it wont randomly choose that same interval scale or chord immediately after, and thats extremely annoying, pointless, and only serves to single handedly defeat any true purposes of ear training. Because its not truly random (as it obviously should be) and I inherently know an answer will never repeat, instead of always using my ear I cant help but deduce the right answer by simple logic. And this DEFEATS the sole purpose of ear training which is to train you TO USE YOUR EARS!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE FIX THIS!!! I really like this app, aside from that, and if that was fixed this would be an amazing and incredibly useful tool as well as something every musician and music student should own. I currently cant recommend it tho when I cant even use it myself, when it doesnt benefit me at all or train my ears. Often what happens is there are four answers (intervals like 2nd, 3rd, 4th 5th) and I hear the interval and deduce its obviously a 4th (as an example) because its a high interval and the last interval was a 5th and cant repeat. It totally makes the app completely useless!!! Hopefully youll fix this because this app would be something Id recommend to every musician and music student (ie: all my friends and students).

if you have no ear and no knowledge this app will make you feel good. If you have any natural music ability or knowledge, not so much. It will make you FEEL GOOD, not actually learn much.

This app is simple, organized, and directs you in a near-perfect way to perfect pitch. Its easy to pick up for any amount of time, a plane ride or a few minutes at a bus station, to test yourself and become more familiar with intervals, chords, and scales. 10/10!

This app is not an ear training course. It is just about drills. Its great for that. It could benefit from giving examples instead just telling you about what to look for. If you use this as a complement to your ear training class, it is great. By itself, it can only can reinforce what you know.

Great to use in conjunction with a guided ear training method.

Great way to study intervals and train your ear.

Ive wanted something like this for years. My guitar skills have definitely improved since Ive started using this, and I havent even made it to the chords section and the improvements in skill are notable. The convenience of being able to do ear training anywhere, with guidance, is the best part.

1. Break down the stages so I can see how many levels are in each one, and go back and practice certain levels. Also I should see my scores on all levels so I know my sticking points.

Should have a customizable setting for exercises

This is a great app for practicing your ear training. By no means should you train by this alone, though. Take an ear training/aural skills class and use this to help you excel.

I got this app because I needed a program/app that could teach Ear Training. I could have programmed my own, but it would have taken too long, so I got this app. Wonderful! Very thorough in its teaching method.

I use it every day for several months and I feel a significant improvement

you still have to practice your instrument but this app is great and allows you to study music when you otherwise might not be able to

Good value as a package with theory and metronome apps. Looking forward to upgrades.

I am Singer and songwriter. with this application I really see progress. Ive trained my ear so I can hear more than I used to. Thank you so much for those developers who made this application for musicians, singers and songwriters
