Would you like to play songs from piano sheet music on piano but dont know the notes? Or maybe you know the basics but want to practice playing sharp or flat notes? PianoNotes is just the app you have been looking for!
This is a really new way to learn playing piano. You dont have to learn note names and then learn their matching at the staff. PianoNotes makes you learn what physical piano key to play when you see a note! No transitions between keys and notes!
PianoNotes shows you a staff and randomly puts notes on it (based the settings you define). You must tap the correct piano keys to get next set of notes. Simple as that. Quickly you will learn the connection between notes and piano keys.
PianoNotes includes:
- Scrollable and playable Piano keyboard
- High quality sounds
- Multitap playing
- Visual feedback
- Possibility to enable / disable hint mode: shows the keys you would need to play
- Sharp and flat notes, or without! You decide!
- Choose either Treble (G) and bass (F) clefs
- Asks for 1 to 3 notes at time (depending on settings)
- Simple statistics, try to keep the correct percentage high!
Take PianoNotes on the bus, train or wherever you have spare time. Use it daily and in weeks youre able to play melodies from piano sheet music!

Latest reviews of PianoNotes app for iPhone and iPad
I was hoping this app would be able to help me sight read music on the piano, by allowing me to freely acsess the virtual keybord so I can translate late a verry high or low note, with out me having to count down or up. But sadly it not that kind of app.
I like this. Ive practiced a lot with it whenever I have time and found it good way to learn playing notes. I get faster and faster in recognizing the notes. Especially I like that its possible to practice in both bass and treble key. Thanks
Not that good try to improve it by showing the note names and mabe chords. But overall now not worth the cash.
Best app in its class! Hints and 3 notes ahead is only app with feature! Bring price to $1.99 can exponentionally increase youre sales since this the best one I have sean! At 2 dollars, no one will hesitate! For the serious learner! Bigginer to advanced! Problem - when flat is turned on, the note right after the flat will be the note for the next note - please fix - otherwise program is a great learning tool - I am switching to 4 stars until a fix is made I will come back and remove this
The keyboard keeps moving automatically which forces you to always have to look at the keys to figure out where they moved to. This goes against the whole purpose of trying to improve your sight reading. Keep the keyboard still!!!
