This app is designed after a very popular exercise taught by a world famous music education guru in the Boston area. Many generations of musicians from all over the world traveled to Boston and waited in a two-year waiting list to access this information and now it is available to everyone at a low price. It will help anybody significantly improve their aural skills. From beginners to professionals, this is a great workout for your ears. Hear from 1 to 11 notes at the time relative to any major key, diatonically or chromatically. Select whether you want to see notes by name, degrees or movable do. It's fun, it includes flexible options, it's very easy to use and extremely effective. Now you can train and open up your ears anytime, anywhere! If you stick to it it will build up your perceptions all the way to near perfect pitch. Politonus keeps track of your progress and tells you when you've reached a master level in the current settings so you can confidently move on to a more complex ear training workout (Both note streak and accuracy circles will turn green). Politonus includes a coach with a powerful algorithm for relative and/or perfect pitch that acts as an ear training tutor. It presents progressive exercises and allows you to step up to a harder level when you are ready. With Politonus you'll have a great ear training teacher anywhere! You will not regret this purchase.}

I’m a 3rd year jazz guitar student in Conservatorium of Amsterdam. I find the idea behind this app quite supportive to my education and career, but it certainly needs some tweaking. Such a basic user interface and unsophisticated randomizer for a solid idea like this, seems disappointing. Needs more options for customization, instrument choice, a better algorithm for a better randomization (repetition is quite often), and I cannot emphasize this enough: It needs MINOR tonality too! If I’m paying 7 euros to an application as a student, I should be getting my money’s worth. Again, kudos to the developer for this creative idea, but execution really needs some improvement. Maybe work with a better app designer? Or spend some more time and effort on user interface to improve these issues I mentioned with the next updates. It’s up to you, developer. But one thing for sure, if you give what the idea deserves, this app would shine.

Replay plays a different cadence than the initial one, which is doesn’t help at all to find the note to be identified

2 and 3 are hot garbage. MDecks will take your money and you’ll never hear from them again.

App is interesting but has issues. Developers do not respond to email or support requests

This app has gotten worse over time. The replay button now plays a cadence in a different key each time you press it, changing the answer. This means you can’t really listen to the scale degrees more than once, which makes it really hard to do exercises with 3 or more notes

This app is hard, but so is ear training. Still, when listening to the I IV V7 I progression and the following note, I hear those an octave up from the progression base notes, right? So effectively, I’m learning to hear 8ths, 9ths, 10ths etc instead of 2’s, 3’s etc. Even though those are technically similar, it doesn’t help when trying to hear intervals for converting your inner compositions to the instrument. Am I doing something wrong?

I rarely write app reviews, but this app really motivated me to. I've never had such a frustrating pedagogical experience in my life. My accuracy actually dropped as I practiced with this app, from 50% to 20%. It's almost as though the algorithm with supposedly picks the next pitch to test is deliberately programmed to choose the most confusing possible option. Now, perhaps much of this is to blame on my tin ear, but I'd hoped for help with that from a tool like this, not be driven to distraction. If a music teacher had done this test on me in grade school, I would have broke down crying and switched to pottery.
