Anyone have recs for good Android equivalents?
I get a lot of requests for an Android version. I've never had time but I hope there is something good out there

#12Chiming in to say I downloaded this what feels like ages ago and occasionally come back to it when I’m away from my keyboard for too long, so thank you for this amazing app!

Not an answer to your question but I have 8 iPhone app on AppStore, and many more on my phone not published. Made an Android app, but it’s hard to publish to Google Play compared. Stopped almost at the end in the approval process, because I felt like this platform must really hate developers. Or is it just me?
When I see the stats on paying Android users compared to iPhone, I feel I always will start on iOS and only maybe make to Android if it’s successful somewhere else first.

I can understand this sentiment in other contexts, but here? I'm not sure. They're exfiltrating how bad I can play sheet music? I'm not really sure if I see the problem?

#16Sight reading is equal parts being quick to parse the score and being quick to understand the piece harmonically/rythmically. This is why random exercises or simple songs don't really cut it.
Also, it's all about compromise. When sight reading a serious piece you will almost never be expected or be capable of playing every note. You have to understand what's important and what's feasible, and to do that on the fly you need tons of musical experience.

#19This is incredible because it exactly matches my needs. I started learning the piano 3 years ago as an adult, I love it, but my biggest difficulty is reading scores. I do want to practice but also I'm very lazy, I tried to find a tool to help but never found yours before.
Tiny question before I purchase to unlock the microphone feature (which is really what makes sense for me): does the app understands do ré mi via microphone?
Thanks for your work.

I made a similar app for both iPhone and Android called Note Flash. Works with microphone and MIDI:
