00JaneBlonde,
Excellent learning app
This is a really nice, thoughtfully designed app. The structured lessons give great guidance, but you aren’t locked into or out of any material. What I really like is the number and variety of technique exercises which are included; there are lessons on hand independence, a variety of scales, finger agility and articulation. The song selection is nice, and well-categorized by skill level, but IMO it’s the exercises which really set Skoove apart from other apps in this niche.
The lesson plan uses simplified versions of songs to introduce music theory concepts. More focused practice on those concepts can usually be found in the technique exercises. The lesson structure also gives you guidance on HOW to learn that will last beyond the app; practice each hand separately, then put them together, then slowly build your speed. It builds good habits without being pushy about it.
I went through the free trial period of a couple other apps, and have used a method book, but switched to Skoove. I started out with the three-month membership, but recently upgraded to a year subscription; IMO, this app is worth paying money for. I’ve put roughly 150–200 hours of practice in with this app, and still haven’t reached the end of the content; there are whole courses I haven’t touched yet. Recommended!

Best but needs improvement
I think this is the best piano tutor app out there, but it needs work. The inability for it to properly recognize notes is frustrating and interrupts flow and learning. I purchased the cords to hook up my keyboard to my iPad, so hopefully that helps, but there is no work around when playing my acoustic piano, so I'll have to play my keyboard when using this app, also frustrating. I would also like to have more control of the sheet music in the lessons. I would like to press pause and then be able to scroll through the sheet music. Right now when you hit stop it takes you back to the beginning of the sheet music automatically. At least allow me to pause it where I'm at and practice and repeat the current notes at my own pace, or have an option in the lesson to review all sheet music and scroll through it there. For what it is and the need to purchase cords, $5 a month should be the max for a subscription.
BonnieBruise,
Who's writing these reviews??
As someone who is intermediate (sheetless) and practices piano daily, this app is useless to me. I originally hoped it would help me learn to read sheet music, but it's frustrating to try to use if you don't know sheet music. If you want it to learn songs, forget it. The finger placement previews on a lot of double handed songs thoughtlessly block the keys from sight making you guess what keys are being hit if you can't read notes. If you have a specific song in mind- you'll need to tediously scroll through 3 placement levels to find it. There's no search methods for specific songs.
The notes sound sharp and cheap like a toy piano which gets annoying after guessing keys incorrectly and the narrators voice is also sharp and annoying. This app was not for me which is unfortunate because I spent money on it hoping it would be good since there's no available tutorial option.
My genuine feedback is to give people a tutorial so they're not upset and feel inclined to leave bad reviews warning people about to spend money.
Please have search & narrator options, maybe even some options for learning sheet music easier without trying to annoying wanna-be Rosetta Stone method.

Could Be Great, But Loves To Frustrate!
I wanted to bad to love this app, and I do quite enjoy it and I have learned a lot with it. There are things it does that makes learning for a beginner really hard and frustrating. It can miss reading or hearing a note multiple times to the point of I have to stop and keep hitting said note hard and loud until it decides ok I got it. As if this isn’t bad enough every 20 seconds I get a pop up smack in the middle of the screen saying it is taking longer than usual and won’t close until I click wait or exit.... Seriously are you kidding me? First of all when this pops up the app and song is working just fine and playing along..... even if it was “slow” to the app while are you telling me this? And why does it need to be in a pop up that blocks my notes and won’t go away until I interact with it? Forcing me yet again to stop playing to address something that isn’t even an issue. There is a lot this app does right, but there are some glaring issues that make continued use frustrating on a daily basis.
SirGeorgeMartin,
Needs a lot of work
After giving this app a good faith try for about three weeks, I’ve given up on it and will seek out a different tutorial. There are so many things I dislike about the way this app works, it’s hard to list them all. One major annoyance is having to constantly tap the iPad to move on to the next extremely short segment (some of them are five seconds or so in length, most a bit longer than that), which gets really annoying after a while. Another thing is, when you hit the start button to start showing the notes to play, it often doesn’t even give you two seconds to get your hands back on the keyboard and in place to play. For a beginner, it’s impossible to place my fingers on the right keys in that amount of time. My major grievance, I suppose, is the unrealistically fast pace that the lessons move at. I’ve only been playing piano for three weeks, I can barely play, and I’m already expected to read and play sheet music at a fast pace with two hands? Seriously?
Smm-37,
Wonderful for a Beginner
I’m 60 years old and want to play piano for enjoyment. I purchased Skoove and Flowkey. I started with lessons in both and find both very good. I find the lessons in Skoove very doable and have made good progress in about 6 weeks. I can read music and play songs with both hands. I love it! I practice every day because I want to improve.
I would give 5 stars if I could slow down playing with the band and increase the speed once I became more proficient. I find the transition from practicing to the band too challenging.
I also find the messages that appear while playing can be distracting and sometimes block my view of the music. I appreciate the feedback for my playing but they appear in the middle of my playing sometimes.
I like the way music theory is taught through the lesson in playing, connecting the concept to piano playing instead of separately.
The arrangements for beginner level are very good and are enjoyable to play. I wish there were longer versions to play outside of lessons for practice and enjoyment. I would also like more holiday music at this level.
Overall, it is a great app and I love connecting my iPad to my Yamaha keyboard through a midi cord for accuracy, although I found it also works fairly well through the microphone.

The Reluctant Critic,
Short of Greatness
This app has great potential, but I don’t believe the developers are very ambitious. It doesn’t have user tracking, which keeps you from having your progress tracked across multiple iPadOS devices. Super PITA that is. Almost every other music learning app has this feature. What is the reason for this? I mean, really? Changing the tempo of songs is limited to increments of ten percentage points, though such is the case with most apps of this genre. There is one app out there that will allow one point increments in tempo, all the way up to 125%. But Skoove does have a good song selection. NOTE: I did figure out how to isolate portions of the song and have them loop. But it isn’t super user intuitive to figure out. Just click on those arrows that go in opposition directions and it’s quite easy after that. I wish you could give half stars. I’d go 3.5.
userfromlosan,
Lacking features
I rate this three stars because there is an annoying message every time I attempt to start a lesson saying digital piano detected. I am playing without a bluetooth keyboard nor a midi cable and am using the mic, but it asks every time whether I want to set up the audio. I could not find a setting to turn this annoying message off.
EDIT: After trying this app for several hours, I was disappointed that the MIDI detection can be very finicky at times. I was doing the James Bond course and when I had to play on time, some of my keys were not being registered as being pressed. I have tried playing the same melody in GarageBand and it showed that my cable or keyboard is not the problem.
In addition, my progress or current lesson does not work properly. When I try to advance, I have to find the lesson myself because the home screen did not update.

The app won’t even load
I got this App a few days ago and I’ve tried on multiple occasions with different Internet services and it never load loaded whenever I tried to sign in. And I read one of the reviews that said that the app cost money and I have pretty much tried every piano app out there and I thought this was the one but I’m not willing to pay $112 for piano lessons on my phone it won’t even teach me that much will be different if they were real in person piano lessons and they were actually teaching me anything. I feel bad for giving them a bad review because I know that the app can be free because I know people have to make money. However this app just isn’t for me I don’t know if everybody has a problem with trying to sign in and it not working/loading I hope this app and get some improvements because it’s definitely not the Internet again I’ve tried it on multiple occasions and it never worked.

your very sad friend,
Don’t get it unless you wanna pay
Hi, as you can see I don’t like this app cause when I download apps I ALWAYS check the reviews and they were pretty good so I got the app. To my surprise I finished the first lesson in a couple minutes but after that it said I had to get premium to continue on to another lesson. This makes me super disappointed cause I’ve been looking almost for my whole life for an app that didn’t cost money. The only reason I wanna get a app that doesn’t cost money is because my parents don’t really have enough money to be wasting on piano lessons in person, so they told me to get a app or something so I did that, I’ve been searching the App Store ever since and when I saw this application I got it and boom there it was, telling me I had to buy to continue. Developer I’m very sad cause of this I’ll keep on searching and try to find a free piano app but for now I’m asking to make this app free cause I loved it and I just wish I could continue playing. Thank you if you respond.
