Coolwatercorey,
Even Better sheesh!
I was so upset when I updated to iOS 11 and couldn’t use this app. :( I was wondering what the heck is taking them so long to update??, My apologies... I’m not even mad anymore. they were simply making things even better. Bravo Team! Freakin Bravo!
dontletmedrown,
Love the new update
Glad to be able to use this app again. If you can make an option to have dictionary mode play individual note sounds as we touch/add them that would be handy. Thanks!
Jackster847,
Versatile but lacking some practical tools
1. Needs in-app manual or at least on-demand wizards
2. Needs way to save notes, chords and progressions you play and to output this as midi file
3. Would also be nice to output midi from within app
Aside from that, get ready for a voyage of discovery.

Billybudd128,
Hooray!!
I can now upgrade to IOS 11. Was avoiding doing that solely for this app!
Chilltime,
Wow! What a great writing tool!
I'm right now sitting in my room experimenting with chord combos & melody ideas on my iPhone! I thought I'd have to spend 3 years getting a music theory degree to understand half of what this app does, bit now that it lets me hear it, I can use it to study & finally understand what all the jazz masters were doing. Weather your a natural at creating music or are in school to learn arrangement, this will ne an invaluable tool! The buttons are occasionably hard to hit, prob more so if u have big hands (I don't) as one reviewer mentioned. I don't know how you'd fit everything to one screen if it was done differently. Despite this I find myself amazed with the new update.
ncnoman,
Awesome! Great if interested music theory
Sound is working just fine people! Not sure why the review says that. EXCELLENT APP exactly what anyone who knows music theory would want if learning piano. Very few people don't learn both together so this app was perfect for me.
If you don't already know music theory this app might not help you but if you know it or are learning it you really couldn't ask for much more. I plug in my MIDI iRig iPhone keyboard and chord away!
If you want an app that stays out of the way but isn't missing any detail this is it.

Great Reference Tool
If you are looking for a great reference tool for the piano, this is it. It provides enough scales and chords to keep you busy learning for hours. I set my Itouch on my piano, choose the scale and start practicing, much easier than using a book or trying to figure out the scales on my own. Every bit worth $2.99.
RickshawMe,
Such a great concept, but
Scott, I do hope you read these reviews, and take this one as constructive criticism: the idea for this app is brilliant and is something I've been waiting for, but the interface is virtually unusable in its current iteration for anyone that has fingers that are average to bigger size. My fingers are average, and I find this app such a chore to use. I do not exaggerate when I say that it took me no less than 10 tries to hit the question mark and i button. Just awful. And I'm constantly hitting the wrong buttons in the app otherwise. I love the idea of this app. Please improve the UI.
Kaiandious,
Respectable app for serious musicians!
This is a solid app. I did not expect to get as much information from this app as I did. Very inclusive. This works great for theory or composition classes. There isn't anything bad to say about it.
I think this app would be even better if it played the scales and chords for you. That would be great for practicing ear training. I would also like to see some common chord progressions.
Awesome app and worth the money spent.

New Interface is Awesome
This is an extremely useful app that had always performed flawlessly. Past versions were a bit difficult to use because the controls were too small, but today's update contains a great redesign of the interface. I hope the developer responds with quicker updates in the future.
