App summary

Ear training is highly essential for any musician - be it a composer, singer, songwriter or instrumentalist. It practices the ability to connect music theory elements (intervals, chords, scales) with real sounds you hear. The benefits of mastering ear training include improved intonation and musical memory, confidence in improvisation or the ability to transcribe music more easily.

MyEarTraining makes ear training practice possible almost anywhere and anytime on the go, thus saving you from the hassle of assembling musical instruments. You can practically train your ears while waiting at the bus stand, traveling, or even at your coffee desk.

>> APP FOR ALL EXPERIENCE LEVELS
Whether you are new to music theory, need to prepare for an intensive school exam, or are an experienced musician, there are over 100 aural exercises to help you push your music skills. Users with no ear training experience begin with simple perfect intervals, major vs. minor chords and simple rhythms. Advanced users can progress through seventh chord inversions, complex chord progressions and exotic scale modes. You can use tonal exercises with solfeggio or singing exercises to improve your inner ear. Input answers using buttons or virtual piano keyboard. For major music topics, MyEarTraining offers different courses and lessons including basic music theory. Interval songs and practice piano are also included.

>> COMPLETE EAR TRAINING
MyEarTraining app works by combining different ear training approaches like isolated sounds, singing exercises, and functional exercises (sounds in tonal context) to train your ears, thus maximizing results.

User reviews
So far the best ear training app i've found. Interval, always relates to some starting point. There are other apps out there, Sonofield is one such that ignores this essential fact. They play a root followed by as many as seven sequential tones without ever referencing the root. But MyEarTraining gets it correct, always starting with a root or reference note

Changed from 5 stars to 2. Edited again post developer's response. They've removed the "exercise length" option as a global setting and there's an extra, unnecessary prompt before each exercise now. Please fix it. Also, it keeps asking for a rating even though I've rated it years ago. Small stuff that's messed up an otherwise perfect and extremely useful app. "Rate us" issue still not fixed + no response to exercise length issue. 🤷🏾

My hearing has improved a lot while using this app. I can now recognise intervals, melody lines, chords by ear with the help of this app, which I couldn't do prior to the time I started practicing with the app. However there should be endless options creating own exercise (costom exercise)
