User Reviews for Note Flash Music Sight Reading

Has potential but needs work

I think this app is a good idea and I do enjoy it. It’s nice how you can customize which notes you want to work on. There is a bit of a problem with accuracy. I purposely pressed the wrong key a few times to test the accuracy of this app and it did fail to catch these mistakes a lot. My daughter came in the room and coughed and it went onto the next note as well. There were a few times that it would catch mistakes but not as often as I would have expected it to. I would like to point out that I am playing on a piano that was just tuned by a technician two weeks ago. I do like the app and I think it’s alright for people who already know their way around the piano and just want to become faster with their sight reading, but if you’re a beginner and you’re just learning I wouldn’t suggest it.

Not very responsive

Finding this a bit frustrating for sure hitting the right key at times and it’s not registering so this is very frustrating and could be misleading and detrimental. Anyone has any suggestions in regard to this issue would really appreciate knowing about it

Revised review

After a few days I decided to try the contact us option within the app again. It worked. I was able to reach out to the developer. The app is now working as it is designed to function.My one suggested upgrade would be to add midi and Bluetooth capabilities.A big thank you to the developer!Previous one star review that I upgraded to four-star. I had no intention of writing a negative review until after attempting to contact them through the app. However the contact us link in the app is not functioning. I also tried the app support link right here within the App Store. That particular app support link takes you to a non-existing Twitter account. So I am left with no choice. My first disappointment was the free version offers nothing. They would be better off giving you the full version for two weeks, or something like that. However the app is only four dollars so I went ahead and purchased to experience the full version. The app is not picking up the sound of my keyboard. Therefore it is stuck on one note and wont switch to a new note. The microphone option is turned on within the app. I have also restarted my device which is a 2018 iPad. Hopefully the developers respond to this feedback so that I can have the problem resolved or a refund. Then I would be happy to upday my review. The app is useless as it is.

Says wrong notes are right

It says wrong notes are correct and is extremely inaccurate. There’s a setting that lets you turn the sensitivity up or down but it still will go to the next note and show you did it right even if play a note that’s not even close. It also sometimes skips through a few notes even when you does play anything.

Sound

It would be a lot better if it had a sound!

Poor

It appears that it fails to respond to correct note played frequently why. Probably to frustrate you enough to buy “the pro” app

Great tool for learning music

Help me remember all notes

Really Bad App

You can not set the app to your level at all. If you want to change any settings you must pay monthly. The "game" pretty much never stops. Altogether, an app you do not want to download.

Unreliable note recognition via iPad microphone

Tested it out and often had to play the same (correct) note a few times before the app recognized it. If it worked it would be great, but unfortunately it didn’t work for me.

Limited but OK for what it does

I like that it provides a full range of notes to practice and can take input via MIDI. Having said that, these are not discrete exercises, just one note after another ad infinitum, so it’s kind of boring. Also the orientation is fixed so you can’t turn your phone upside down if you need to in order to accommodate a MIDI cable. (At least the orientation doesn’t change on my iPhone Mini.)

Description

Note Flash helps you improve your sight reading skills for sheet music. This is the most intuitive way of learning how to read sheet music notes as it listens via the microphone or a connected MIDI instrument to make sure you play the correct note in the correct octave. Note Flash is the ONLY app which also has accidentals (sharp and flat notes) along with ledger lines for advanced players.

Note Flash is also the ONLY app to show graphs on your progress in recognizing notes faster. This way you will know which notes you are spending more time thinking. **How to use** - Best results via a MIDI connected instrument. I developed and tested using a Yamaha P115 Piano connected to iPhone/iPad with this cable (other MIDI cables should work too): https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0829NV65Q/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1UM1J239QRPCJ&psc=1 Play the Note shown on screen on the piano and the app will listen via the microphone or via the connected MIDI instrument. You must play in the correct octave too - Note Flash is very intelligent to recognize the correct octaves. If played correctly, the app shows a new note on screen. If you can't remember, then you can tap "Show Hint". The app is built for infinite practice which encourages practice more as it makes note reading into a game. Note Flash learns which note you are getting wrong or spending more time thinking and shows you more often. You can view your progress graphs for each note and both staff. This way you will know exactly how long you spend thinking of each note and how it's improving! You can select which hand you would like to practice or you can do both randomly. You can also choose to show accidentals - sharp, flats as well enable ledger lines for more advanced students. The app comes with a variety of beautiful themes and you can use your own picture too for the theme. The app contains no ads for a distraction free experience. Please note that the app needs microphone access to listen to your piano. The app does NOT connect to the internet and your microphone data is completely safe as it never leaves your phone. I recommend using a MIDI connected piano. If you use the microphone and are having trouble detecting the notes, go to my app's settings and change the "Sensitivity". Default value is 5. If you have any feedback, please contact us at: [email protected] I have made this app with love because I myself struggled to read music when learning piano and the old paper flash cards were just not effective! So I really hope this helps you and your students out!
