Pros and cons of Ear Trainer Lite app for iPhone and iPad
Ear Trainer Lite app good for
A design overhaul, a bunch of new exercises, plus the transfer of progress data went off without a hitch. As already said: Great update.
Works well, fairly good designed in comparison with a lot of the other apps. The free version provides already a lot of useful exercises
...you have to get the real version to access all of the features
Perfect to get started on ear training. You will notice the shortcomings once you advance, but only because youve reaped the benefits of this app.
Great tool, straight forward to use. Helps a lot to improve my ear. Great for all ages.
Pretty good app, definitely helped me with basic ear training. Wished they had more interval trAining that didnt start with a common note
Some bad moments
It only prompts you to identify major vs minor versions of chords/intervals, which is not challenging or practical.
Nice way to train your ear musically. Can also work for vocalists and really anyone learning any instrument.
Another app where the exercises really do help you improve your understanding of music theory and practice.
Not sure if I want to spend the full 7 bux for upgrade, seems steep to me
After realizing I had way too many games on my iPhone, with nothing to really gain from wasting my time on them, I decided to search for a music application. This is a great tool for those who want to gain an understanding of music from more of a theoretical standpoint- something that isnt easily found just by playing a relatives six string that isnt tuned properly. Definitely worth checking out.
A great app. I tried several "ear trainers" and none compared to Ear Trainer.
Great program. Its like a game but I get personal benefit from it. I have already noticed my ear getting better.
I like this game a lot!! Dont know how much it helps, but its fun to play.
