Politonus I (Ear Training‪)‬ 4+

This is mostly a good app. It has great potential but feels like it’s a bit early-stage, especially for the price.

One bug that is pretty annoying, is when I hit the repeat button to hear the notes again when random key is on, the I-IV-V-I plays in a different random key! Then the test notes play the same as before, but the relationship to the 1-4-5-1 is now changed.

Another thing that would be nice is not to get the immediate feedback on what the correct guesses should have been. I’d like the option to have it only say which notes were correct that I guessed, and let me continue trying to figure out the others.

Also I’d like to have the option to have the coach drill a specific note combination more often when it’s clear that I’ve missed that one before, and drill the ones I nail perfectly less and less.

Thanks for your work on this app! I hope it continues to improve. I’ll gladly change my rating when the bugs disappear.

Really great app- from 1 note to up to 11 note ear training with chromatic or diatonic intervals. The lay out is simple and easy to understand. You can design it to perfectly suit your level. I love that Solfeggio is an option for naming the notes as well.

Bought this app with high hopes that it would help me develop my ear training skills. Sadly I find it does a very bad job of helping you learn. It claims to have AI that adapts to your learning style, but I see no evidence of that. It feels like a simplistic drill-based approach that offers no support to improve. If you already are good at ear training it might offer useful practice to brush up. Otherwise I suggest you look elsewhere.
