Piano Academy by Yokee Music for Negative User Reviews
✓ 1 Year Premium priceI prefer to pay the 1 year instead of monthly. When I saw your price for the 1 year premium, it’s more expensive than Simply Piano offering. If you can match or beat Simply Piano prices, I may consider subscribing and using the app frequently..Version: 1.1.9
✓ It’s okay I guessSo I started playing and I have already learnt some things at school and other apps so I was speeding through the basics and I found it frustrating that I couldn’t fast forward to different levels because it was super easy. Also I think lots of people have had this happen as well, when I play a note it doesn’t hear it and once I was playing a song and it didn’t hear the note so I play it again and on the next note, it doesn’t hear it again and it just doesn’t hear for the next like 5-6 notes and it’s really annoying..Version: 1.5.7
✓ BAD gameSo I saw that this game was the game of the day so I wanted to download it plus I was looking for piano app’s because you might have read my Simpley Piano review where I pointed out 1 good thing and 4 bad things and I did my tip if you’re gonna download this app that you don’t wanna pay for it either way I’m going to do something like what I did for my simply piano review 1. there is no good thing bad stuff-1. right when I download it it automatically said download the free trial and I didn’t even let me look at a single song🤬2. this game said it was free but it actually isn’t🤬3.whenever I see ads for this app it says they’re free when they’re actually not😡Tip: if you’re gonna download this game like me I don’t wanna pay for it for it DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT suggestion: change this app now or this app will be bye-bye forever suggestion tip: make so songs free and others not. And I I’m Mad.Version: 1.5.5
✓ Great for beginners - Tedious for othersIt’s great for beginners! There’s just two things I’m not a fan of. When I first downloaded this app, I didn’t have a real keyboard available to me, so I had to use the virtual one in the app. The problem is the keys are smaller than my fingers, so it’s hard to make sure you hit them perfectly. I found that hitting them slightly to the side either wasn’t recognized, or was recognized as the note next to the correct key. But obviously, this will not be a problem for those who have a physical piano/keyboard available to them. Another criticism that I have is that you have to unlock everything starting from the very beginning. That’s great for beginners, and I understand that’s who this is meant for. But it would be nice for those who already know a little bit, or those who play other instruments and already know what clef and a staff are to be able to start at their current skill level and skip what they’ve already learned elsewhere. Though with that said, it seems that the lessons are fairly quick, so it’s not the end of the world. It’s just an annoyance for those who aren’t complete beginners who have no musical knowledge under their belt, going into this..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Good but..I enjoyed this game really much at first when I downloaded it. But when the practice time was over for each day, I got frustrated. Can you please make the time longer for people who don’t pay? I had to practice by myself after 10 mins of practicing online. It would mean a lot to me if you could make the time longer. About 20 mins would do. Thanks! Update: Sudden Glitching It all was well and I tried out premium, which is awesome. Then came the glitches. First, I finished one course and closed the app. The next day, I came on again and it all restart. I had to skip again to do the lesson and there’s another glitch where when you play a note during a lesson, it’s still black and the color doesn’t show up. I don’t know why there’s sudden glitching and I would love it if you could fix these bugs. Another star is gone..Version: 1.4.1
✓ It was incredible until...I read some of the reviews and I was really excited to download this app because the reviewers were saying it was free, I tried other apps and in order to continue with your lessons you needed to pay certain amount of money, and I am one of those persons who can’t pay, so when I saw this app I was completely satisfied, I used the app for about 20 minutes and in lesson number 5, approximately, the app was saying that I needed to pay to continue, so then I realized you guys updated it, and now, again, I’m going to eliminate the app just as I did with other ones, I hope you can make it free again or at least just the lessons, or another idea could be to put adds and unlock videos and lessons with them. Thank you if you read this 💗.Version: 1.1.7
✓ It was okIt was helpful but, I put my keyboard on full volume and it kept on saying test again. And I tried everything but it just wouldn’t work. after that,I did the keyboard on the phone and it helped me a lot. Just slight issues it may be with my speaker and I would recommend it or any other piano games because piano is a great instrument and I love to play it. After all, it was a great app. You should try it out. I also recommend online pianist and simply piano. You need a free trial for most songs on simply piano though. But online pianist it’s only a couple songs so I recommend it. Finally I would like to add extra because online piano does not connect to your keyboard so be aware of that..Version: 1.5.7
✓ No access to Premium after subscription. Please respond.I subscribed to the premium plan on July 1, 2020. After having access to it for a few days, I am now not able to use it anymore. This is the third day I am not able to use it. I have written an email to support and has not hear from you. Please reply to us ASAP as we paid for the monthly subscription..Version: 1.3.7
✓ It was a lot better months agoI first got this app around 6 or 7 months ago when I first decided to learn piano. It was great then and you could play many songs for free and whatever. But you could only go so far in the lessons before they wanted you to subscribe. Then I stopped playing for awhile till I checked in around 2 months ago, this is where everything went downhill. I came back to app after realizing how much I missed it 2 months ago like I had said. I quickly realized that almost every song was marked only for people who subscribed. Every single song I liked I could no longer play. I’m pretty Itsy Bistsy Spider was marked for people who subscribed as well. It’s terrible. I understand that they as a company need to make money somehow but I encourage that a subscription isn’t the best way to do it, especially if the plans aren’t that affordable for everyone. So listen to my idea, people who want to play a song have to watch an add per song. And like a couple ads at a time to unlock a lesson. This way the company can still make money. If someone is really truly fed up with all the ads they have to watch then they can pay for a subscription or something..Version: 1.2.8
✓ CrashingUnfortunately this has potential to be a good learning app but there are so many glitches with it, that I don’t thing it’s a good enough product to purchase. Issues found When opening the app the sound doesn’t come on (ipad Pro). 1. Difficult to contact support. 2. Doesn’t show your progress. 3. Doesn’t really explain about fingering position. 4.Sections of app crashing (Bird training) apparently tech 5. department know about it but not yet fixed. 6.Doesn’t allow you to learn at a slower speed (50% is the lowest, not ideal for beginners). 7. No provision to rewind app to certain sections that you maybe struggling on (Re-starts from beginning only). Hopefully this is a guide for anyone who maybe thinking of purchasing this app, and is based on my opinion only..Version: 1.5.7
✓ Great at firstI started using this app almost a month ago with absolutely zero experience. It has been fantastic learning from square one with a gamified experience that gradually gets more like reading real sheet music as you progress. I subscribed after a few hours and had no regrets until recently. I really only have one gripe - that you cannot redo certain sections of the songs. I am forced to pause - restart and wait for the section I am working on to come up. If I am lucky the section fits on one screen and I can pause it and just work on it while paused or take a picture with my phone. It is especially frustrating when the instructor has a small speech at the beginning, forcing you to hear his spiel over and over again before the music even starts scrolling. All I want to do is rewind but I cannot. Early on I mastered the songs fast enough to not care so much but it takes longer and longer to master the songs as they get longer and more complex which means restarting a lot more. I cannot continue so inefficiently... I really feel invested in the app (not just monetarily) and want to use it.. but I’m done and moving to flowkey which lets you loop any section you want to work on..Version: 1.2.5
✓ Simply piano is betterListens progress too fast in an awkward way, it doesn’t let you practice repeatedly, so before you know it you will be stuck with complicated notes. So in order to practice it, you have to go back to the same lessons to play the same boring songs, which actually doesn’t didn’t help because your ears and fingers memorize the movement before your eyes do, so you will pass the lesson eventually but, it doesn’t help you with note reading. And each lessons loads way too slow because of unnecessary “shows” such as painfully long cheerings or pauses that come between lessons. So it makes you sick to move on. Only the lesson I feel like I could take was that birds on telephone lines because all the notes seems to be different every time I try, but again, I have to wait for the narrator talking and wait for the birds to land on the stupid telephone lines and it just takes forever. Terrible way to learn piano..Version: 1.3.7
✓ More stars if…It’s a great app and all, but I wish the practice times was longer. The songs are only 50 secs long but I want to learn how to play the full song. Can the practice times be more like 20-30 mins instead of ten? And I’ve gone from having to wait 3 hrs until I can practice again to 7 hrs, and I’m only playing it once a day. Also, can we have a advanced academy for the people out there who have previously played piano and just want a recap? PianoPlayer678.Version: 1.4.6
✓ The worst gameThis game is the worst because I can’t get it on the App Store and none of these games have real pianos on it so you need to upgrade it because it’s the worst game in the whole universe I don’t like it and who ever has mentioned that they like it I don’t like them because this is the worst you are the worst I need more piano games from you that doesn’t get purchased I need them to the download worst people in the universe.Version: 1.5.5
✓ EscroquerieJ ai voulu aujourd’hui essayer 7 jours gratuit ils m ont pris le jour même 149 dollars je vous demande de me rembourser ou je porterais plainte contre vous.Version: 1.5.7
✓ Money hungryI had this when I was little and I had so much fun being able to play songs in the songbook but now I can’t because I have to pay a subscription in order to play songs you guys are sooo greedy and money hungry.Version: 1.5.5
✓ To slowTo slow like cookies crumbling.Version: 1.5.2
✓ Very good but needs improvementThe lack of note recognition issue by the app is a real problem and discouraging to a learner. Another very important problem is that the app should allow in app purchases for the sheet music. It is difficult for a beginner or learner to follow the notes as they speed across the screen. Yes, there is the practice mode, but that still does not give you the opportunity to study the music and see the repetition of notes, etc. It also does not allow you to stop without having to start all over again. It’s very difficult and frustrating when you can’t keep up even at 50% speed. You should provide a low-cost purchase of sheet music. If you have the sheet music, you can see the patterns that you miss when the music just moves past you. Please consider providing sheet music. Also, the training sessions should discuss finger movements and shifting positions more. Otherwise the app has been a very good alternative for home study. I have researched all the apps I could find and none provide sheet music, so this would be an important method of distinguishing your product. I assume there may be copyright issues, but you can already purchase or download different versions of the pieces on-line. They have to be exact to work with the app though..Version: 1.5.3
✓ Not workingWhen I was playing it wasn’t listening to my piano so now I just have to play it on my iPad which is harder and not teaching me..Version: 1.3.4
✓ Needs a lot of improvementI was excited about this for about the first ten lessons. I thought it was a great app for beginners because they ease you into music theory and proper technique. The mini bird game is a great feature to get you to practice sight reading. The quizzes are also helpful with learning more about music. They jump right into recognizable and even some contemporary music to get you excited to practice. Piano Academy is promising, but there are a few missing features and frustrating things that won’t be making me subscribe. The main issue for me is that once you get further in, you’re thrown straight into changing hand positions without being eased into it. So your learning progress slows by a lot. A related problem is that you can’t practice sections first. There’s no option to scroll to specific measures of a song if you’re having trouble with just certain parts. You have to just play through the whole thing. The slow and fast training options aren’t really as useful as being able to practice by sections first. Piano Academy also has more note recognition issues than other apps I’ve tried even when I used headphones. Probably would need a midi connector to fix this..Version: 1.4.6
✓ Terrible gameI recommend do not download this you have to pay.Version: 1.5.7
✓ Good, at first.I’m sick of having songs chosen for me and always being asked to buy premium! Then, after I get to level 2 it is saying I have to buy premium to continue! I love this but I’m not risking unfair prices for some piano app..Version: 1.3.8
✓ Ugh why does all of these games cost so much moneyLike I wanna do Barbie girl it cost like 59 dollars like make at least one game so I can learn piano THAT DOESNT COST MONEYS.Version: 1.5.5
✓ OkayishWell, it’s a great app in terms of learning how to play the piano. But, as I haven’t bought the Premium version of this game, you only get roughly 9 minutes to learn each day! Which I find incredibly frustrating. And, it might just be me, but as it lags quite a bit so the notes keep on freezing so when i play a song, it sounds incredibly out of sync. I would NOT get this app if I didn’t know about all the lags, time limit, and the cost of the Premium version! SOOO EXPENSIVE Would NOT recommend this app to anyone who wants a piano career. Simply Piano is 100% better!.Version: 1.4.0
✓ Ok appSo someone in my family plays the piano and once I got to the lesson we’re to play with your left hand it was wrong it was teaching me to play the c note with my pinky when you play it with your thumb. So if you are going to teach someone to play the piano with an app, make the app teach you right..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Developers, please read this!Please make the songbook free again! I used to have this app and thought it was amazing but now you have to pay to do nearly everything..Version: 1.4.2
✓ Ok but you need to fixThis app is alright but WHY OH WHY CAN YOU NOT CHANGE THE SPEED OF SONGS!!!!!! I am currently grade two and there are basically no songs that accommodate that grade. Intermediate is too hard and beginner to easy. I did not pay any money for this app as I already have a piano teacher and just wanted this app for fun. DEVELOPERS READ THIS AND SORT IT OUT!!!! This app was ok but the lessons are crap. I dislike the fact that you have to pay for some songs. If you want to learn the piano I suggest getting an actual teacher!!!.Version: 1.2.5
✓ Not on a real pianoI’ve been playing for years but haven’t had lessons for a very long time and thought this would be a fun way to get back into playing while in lockdown. It only recognised the notes as correct about 50% of the time and I have to have it on earphones which improved it slightly but then there is a delay. It was extremely frustrating and absolutely NOT a fun way to get back in to playing the piano! This might work on an electric piano or perhaps a grand but for those of us with ordinary instruments it doesn’t seem to be able to process it. Shame.Version: 1.3.8
✓ Rarely picks up CI’m just starting and it rarely picks up C when I play it so I have to turn up the volume of my keyboard to uncomfortable levels so the app registers it if I don’t, I wide range from 5-102 presses of the C key are required to register ONE press(yes I counted how many) please fix this.Version: 1.4.7
✓ Good Before UpdateAll the lessons are simple and easy to understand and I recommend it to any beginner who is struggling to learn. I stopped practicing for awhile because I was busy with other things. When I came back to start on my lessons again, I saw it has to be updated. So I did. And I regret it. I never had any problems with this app until now. It's extremely frustrating because the app doesn't read the notes correctly! When you press a key it's supossed to respond and correct or wrong. Now, it's not reading any of the keys I'm pressing even though it's correct. It made me upset thinking I was messing up and I was disappointed in myself then to come to a realization that i'm not messing up and it's Piano Academy. It's disappointing because I loved this app and I wanted to continue learning how to become a pianist. It hasn't given me problems until now. This was the only app that I could find that wouldn't charge me 100$ to continue my lessons. I was so happy when I found it. Now, I'm having problems. I don't want top have to look for another app. I'm not in school so I can't get lessons there, I don't know how to self teach myself to play, and I don't have the money to pay for extra lessons. I'm struggling as it is. Hopefully this isn't bothersome. I have low self esteem and anxiety and playing made me happy, now I just want to sleep my disappointment off. Thank you anyway.Version: 1.1.0
✓ HiThe game is great I agree but I am not a fan of how it makes a time limit otherwise it’s amazing the songs are great.Version: 1.5.2
✓ HORRIBLE APP!!!!This app is horrible. You basically have to get premium because you can only practice ten minutes a day. I got to lesson 11 and it refreshed all my work! Uh im so mad! I would like to give a zero but thats not possible so I give you a one..Version: 1.5.2
✓ It is a great app butttThe only problem is the you have 10 minutes of practice so I would like the 10 minute practising to stop bc I would give it a five stars but not until they stop the 10 minute practice first I don’t think it’s enough time and don’t Forget do you have to wait one hour practice again what the heck is wrong but anything else this is a really good app no hate ❤️.Version: 1.3.7
✓ I’m starting to hate itI used to like this app and I’m trying to learn piano. There is just one problem... this app does not ask if you understand or need to go over the lesson again. I know that their is a choice to go back to a lesson but it tells me the notes and that does not help me learn. If the creators of this app could add a feature that the app would ask you if you understand or not so that it’s not so challenging when you move on. I’m really trying to learn but this is the only decent app. So far I only know the right hand notes because the app moves too quickly and does not help you learn piano like it says. I was about to delete the app but I decided to give this one more chance hoping that the creators of the app would see this and add that feature that asks you if you understand or not. Thank You.Version: 1.1.0
✓ Love the concept but the technical glitches outweigh the benefits.My 6 year old has been showing interest in our piano so I was really excited when I downloaded this on our iPad for him. However having used it a handful of times so far, each session has been cut short due to my child getting incredibly frustrated at the erratic performance of this app. In general the notes aren’t always recognised and it often records notes as having been played when they haven’t at all despite doing the sound check test to tune in our iPad to the piano and there aren’t any other sounds in the room to interfere with it’s recognition. It’s now actually putting my son off playing so I’ll be teaching him myself instead until someone posts news of significant improvements to this. I could understand there being certain limits to technological limitations but there are also major design flaws within the app itself too, for example in the Staff Grid Birds game the keyboard that is displayed at the bottom the screen covers the music score that you need to read to play the game rendering it unusable. Sadly this wasn’t worth the money I paid to subscribe to this..Version: 1.5.5
✓ I’ve grown really frustrated with this appTLDR: Don’t invest your time in this app. Find a better provider (there are many). It doesn’t work past a point. I’ve been using it for about 2-3 months. I started off really enjoying it. The lessons are short, fun and they have a good variety of music. I also made progress consistently. But now we’ve moved onto more complex songs and the app just isn’t very good at registering chords or notes played on both clefs. It’s very frustrating to consistently fail or get one star because notes aren’t registering. I’ve also had my progress wiped twice due to app errors. I can carry on regardless but it’s sad to see my achievements vanish. I’ve tried to move the phone closer, play louder etc but it doesn’t help much. I’ve moved to a new provider now..Version: 1.3.4
✓ Plus lentTrop vite ça devrait être plus lent pour apprendre.Version: 1.5.4
✓ It’s good but…You have to pay for every single song there should be loads of song choices for free because not everyone likes to use money on apps.Version: 1.5.2
✓ The update ruined everythingWhen the update came everything was worse! I’m about to delete the app right now and get another app so bye bye! I feel really sad doing this because before the update everything was better! Miss you piano academy!.Version: 1.4.7
✓ Alr ig 😒Quite useful and picks up notes pretty well but the songs it gives you are completely out of tune and don’t sound like it at all which isn’t a problem for me but it’s just a little annoying. My real problem is there’s a time period and then it dosent let you play anymore untill the next day and if you want to canny on you have to pay. I don’t like paying for apps and it’s just inconvenient bc the amount of time is so little.Version: 1.5.3
✓ It has potential..I have some experience with piano. I have skipped around from app to app trying to find something with good piano lessons. Some apps are great, but cost money, and other are just plain bad. I thought this app was going to be good, since it has a professional introduction and it started off by teaching you two basic notes. However, when I started the first song, the app didn’t pick ANY of the notes I played. It was even worse when it stopped the song to help you play the note. I had to jam the key on my keyboard, and I don’t think that’s good for the keyboard. I don’t know if the problem is with me, the app, my iPad, or the keyboard, but I don’t want to waste my time basically hitting my keyboard. Other then that, this app is pretty great! :).Version: 1.2.5
✓ Good app but it was better beforeI downloaded this app a while ago and then uninstalled it. a couple of weeks ago, i reinstalled it and found that it wasn’t at all the same. half of the songs in the songbook that i used to be able to play(including every single one of the hard level songs)now have to be paid for. and the price for subscription is insane. some songs like Part of Your World and Thunder i know for a fact were free because i played them frequently. now i have to pay for them. please fix this soon in an update or something. other than this, great app, i have learned so much more than i thought i would and it has really piqued my interest for playing piano..Version: 1.3.1
✓ FineHi! I just downloaded your app because I wanted to learn how to play the five nights at freddys’ theme song. But I find it VERY stupid that you have to be a premium to actually learn piano. Some kids parents, like mine, cannot afford to get premium for me. And the adults that are learning for themselves do not want to get premium because of bills, they might have kids of their own they have to buy stuff for, sorry, but it’s just stupid. Please think about what I’ve said so you can make this app better. Thankyou!.Version: 1.1.2
✓ 10 minutes a day is not enoughI really enjoying the app, i think it’s guidance and has helped me learn a lot. However 10 minutes is definitely not enough. I get warmed up to the piano but by then I’ve already used my 10 minutes. Would be 5 stars if it had 30 or atleast 20 minutes of free time..Version: 1.5.7
✓ Needs work but not horribleI think this app has potential. Nice flow with videos and progressive lessons. But it can be frustrating at times. The biggest flaw is it being too fast for a beginner...once you reach intervals and using both hands. The problem I have is you have these training parts for songs that you can’t pause, or slow down and see what you keep missing. Instead you fight through it then redo it over and over again. Then once you feel good about that and move on to the actual song they throw in new notes and intervals you haven’t practiced for that song at full speed. Simply Piano does a much better job at training you on the parts for the “full song” you will play. If you miss too many notes it will rewind and play that section over for you. If you keep missing, it will take you into a practice mode that is slowed down and will pause on a missed note until you get it right. You can also pick the speed of the song...100%, 80% or 60%...which is incredibly helpful. The other problem is it doesn’t recognize every note you hit. So about 20% of correct notes and timing are not recognized and counts as a missed note. Like I said it has potential...and it is free compared to $120 annually with Simply Piano..Version: 1.0.6
✓ FineIt’s fine for people who aren’t serious about piano and just want to ‘ give it ago ‘. Look I’m a free user and I think it’s stupid that you have a 10 min limit at least 15 mins please. Also, if you do the calculations, which I have you will find that Simply Piano is worth it much more than getting premium of this. Simply piano has learning features n more. I can’t wait to get simply piano premium!.Version: 1.3.1
✓ FrustratingI got this app, all excited that. It would be great, given with the other reviews. But when I went into it, it just wouldn’t recognise my keyboard. No matter how much I tried, connected it, it still didn’t work. 🙁.Version: 1.5.5
✓ Piano academyI liked the app at first and I liked it. I had played piano before, but because of the coronavirus, my lessons got cancelled. So I have been looking for a app to teach me. I used to have simply piano, but then I quit and when I asked my mom to pay for it again, she said it took away too much of her money. So I have been on a quest to find another piano app. I saw ads for all different piano apps, and they all wanted me to pay money to learn, so I tried this one. I was playing pretty good, but it was all beginner stuff that i had already played, and even though I told the app I have played before, I gave me easy things. When I got to the song perfect, I was about to play the first note C. So I played a C and it paused. It was not connecting. I was trying to play a C and it wouldn’t work. I tried so many times and it wouldn’t work. The app is also constantly trying to make me pay for it, even though I keep saying no. I just downloaded this app, and I am now about to delete it. I highly recommend no one to use this app..Version: 1.3.1
✓ It’s changed, and I don’t like it.Piano Academy has changed because of the Premium Pack. I cannot learn ANYTHING!!! I want to know, can you guys at least leave SOME lessons without premium? This is really bothering me and I don’t want premium in Piano Academy. Actually, I would be FINE if you left premium for the SONGS, but soooo NOT the lessons. I was learning piano finely, until the Premium pack came. Please, please, PLEASE, take the Premium Pack off on the lessons. I would take my time to write this review. This is how you know: my cousin is here and she’s kinda bored, but Piano Academy is important to me, and her. Please, take my advice. A lot of people started disliking this app. I’m sorry, but I might be one of those people, because this is just (sorry, but) kinda annoying that I can’t play ANY lessons. Please, make this a better piano learning app. After all, it was the GREATEST piano app ever, but now it has changed. Sorry. One of your app customers, Me😂😅😜.Version: 1.1.7
✓ Good at firstIt was really good at first then I sucked when it got to left hand it did litsen and kept telling me I was wrong.Version: 1.5.2
✓ Scam, hard avoidPlease spend your money on another app. This is horrible. I downloaded a bunch of apps to try out and this one was absolutely useless where none of the notes would register as what they are. As such I never opened it since and have spent over £100 on it as I rarely check my transactions. Developer is unreachable and there is no contact anywhere You will get no support and pay a lot of money for a useless app. You’ve been warned.Version: 1.5.5
✓ Complain/CommentCan’t even listen to my piano and I don’t like learning touchscreen because that’s not gonna teach me how to do pianoBut it’s a good app because I can learn piano with it and it’s my goal.Version: 1.5.3
✓ The sound does not work 😭😭When I got this the sound was not working I thought my iPad was turned all the way down so I turned it up and still no sound and when the demon straighter was talking. I could not hear him and its a little hard because I don’t know what he is saying. When I go to play on my iPad i can never hear the sound witch is very sad 😞. If you know how to fix this please reply it’s would help me a lot thank you if you fix it..Version: 1.3.4
✓ Cool aspects but also very frustratingMy son loved this at first and made great progress but we quickly found it very frustrating that every exercise has to start at the beginning, you can’t scroll through to though sections in the middle to practise those in isolation. It is hard to get better with it. We will cancel our subscription and may look at this app again in the future if this is fixed..Version: 1.3.1
✓ Doesn’t work properlyI’m on level 8 and I know im hitting the notes right. The app doesn’t listen for certain keys (F, G, C, D) Please fix it. Since it doesn’t listen I keep having to redo the same lesson over and over. And why is literally every song in the songbook premium? Oh and I think you should also get rid of 10 minute practice time again if you’re not premium. -Thanks.Version: 1.5.2
✓ WHY!!!No matter how many times I set this app to I have a piano it won’t listen! It won’t interact with my piano so I’m sitting at my piano playing it and it’s just coming up red. If someone knows how to get it to do it’s job please tell me.Version: 1.2.9
✓ Decent tutorials but I was disappointed…So, I’ve had this app for a while now, but haven’t had the chance to use it until today. I was just getting into the jist of it and all of the sudden it just asks me to pay to spend more time on the app or wait for over 5 hours. I downloaded this thinking it would be an easy way to do better in my music classes but was disappointed with another app asking for money. Can’t there at least be some sort of function where you can use just the keyboard without the tutorials and not have to wait for the timer for learning time to finish?.Version: 1.5.5
✓ Cool app, needs improvementI pay for this app and it’s not cheap! I probably won’t renew because there are some things that need to be improved. For instance, it reads the notes incorrectly much of the time so it would be nice to have a function in the settings where instead of using my microphone, the app connects with my digital piano through bluetooth and reads the notes that I’m actually pressing (this way I can also leave my piano volume down if I choose). Also, if I am paying for the premium version of this app, I should have access to full sheet music. You cannot repeatedly practice the harder pieces as scrolling notes. You just can’t. Give me sheet music or give me the ability to scroll through the upcoming notes in the pause screen. Lastly, I will have completed an entire lesson section and the next day it shows incomplete because somehow it doesn’t register that I’ve already watched the lesson video? It’s not that big of a deal because I can still progress forward, but again if I am paying so much for the app I expect it to work. I’m sure that small problem can be fixed with a simple update though! Overall, the app has certainly been helpful in sight reading practice and teaching me new songs, and even some stuff my piano teacher glosses over :-) I enjoy the songbook portion too..Version: 1.2.8
✓ The worst appIt’s completely not hearing my keyboard. Don’t install this app..Version: 1.5.5
✓ It could be betterThis is an AMAZING game but I’m saying it could be better because you get a free lesson every day which is good but when the time for the lesson is over you can’t play in the songbook. I thinks this isn’t very helpful because when I Finnish me lesson time I can’t practice what I’ve learned in the songbook so it takes me longer to learn that it normally would. Overall it is a good game with an easily understandable course with almost all the songs I can think of BUT you only get 15mins free before your time is up and you need to wait 12hrs just for your next 15min. THIS WOULD BE A FIVE STAR RATING IF SONGBOOK DID NOT HAVE A TIME LIMIT.Version: 1.5.7
✓ Great app but…I have recently started using this app to learn piano, and it’s all fun. The one issue I have with this app is that if you are not premium, you only get like 10 minutes a day pretty much. Then you have to wait like hours just to play again. I personally don’t like this because when I’m motivated to play piano and then I play, I want to play a lot. Then the 10 minute limit comes in and I get all sad that I can’t learn no more piano for hours. I know this is to try to get people to buy premium, but I don’t ever spend money on these apps so I have to use the free version. But couldn’t it have like a 25 minute limit or something like that? I think it would be much better because like I said, I get motivated sometimes and I want to play a lot of piano. This is just a suggestion though. Overall, the app is great since you can go through all the courses without paying. This app is good for anyone that wants to learn piano and looking to not spend money!.Version: 1.5.2
✓ A good app but no convenience to meWhen I originally got the app on my old phone, it was wonderful, It was a good experience in going over what I had learned before and learn new things now. However, I recently just switched to a new phone and I downloaded the app again, only to find that when I play It would not register the played note, I even tried increasing the volume from my piano and force restart etc. but still nothing. I had to drop the app as there is no reason for me to continue using it, I still have it in the background though so until I can find a solution or you find one and fix it I can’t use it sadly, though I do recommend it to anyone thinking about getting it. In conclusion, This was a great app for me but not so much after I switched phones..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Creator please reply and readI have two reasons why I put this as my title one why ten minutes like really for the creator of this video we need to try make him yes HiM learn the piano in. Ten minutes it also stupid how they just want money like drop it full stop. Reason number two what happened to the tutorials for intermediate perfect in beginner intermediate nun like I want to learn were I put my hand and what to do and how to play the notes so pls reply to this message and help not only me out but the creator and I am sure if you do this update or tell me if you’re going to do it in the future I will give you five stars and a a lot better review.Version: 1.3.0
✓ TERRIBLE APPI downloaded this app so I could practice reading sheet music and learn to play songs I liked. It looked like it would give me access to heaps of popular songs, and help improve my playing. This is NOT the case. I DID NOT THINK YOU WOULD HAVE TO SUBSCRIBE TO GET ACCESS TO BARELY ANY SONGS. Basically, this app teaches you the basics of piano playing, and once you’re interested and want to play, you can’t because you have to subscribe to be able to access the song library **THIS HARDLY INCLUDES ANY POPULAR SONGS!*** This app was a massive waste of time. I thought it would be better than other piano apps because you wouldn’t have to pay, but I guess it’s just as bad as the rest of them. If you don’t want to waste your time and money, DONT DOWNLOAD. I love playing piano, but this app took advantage of my passion just to get me to pay! What a waste of time..Version: 1.4.7
✓ Good but...It’s a good app and it does teach you how to play piano or a keyboard but you don’t have very long learning time and then you’ve got a wait 12 hours for your next learning time and I think you should get a longer learning time or shorter waiting time. Or keep in the same boat whilst we wait for the next learning time we can still do some songs in the mean time..Version: 1.3.9
✓ Needs to be fixed right now! 😡😞😒☹️😣😖😟😔😫😭This is a horrible app! It can’t hear my piano and I’m literally pressing my keys so hard! And I think that you should take it more slowly, like , I mean step by step. If you know what I mean. I know it has lots of songs, but literally like all of them are member only songs! I don’t know any songs provided and I can’t enjoy playing a song I don’t even know the lyrics too! I doubt that anyone will like this, no offense, but please just add more not member only songs in the song book! The only thing that is good is that the courses are free, unlike other piano apps (Simply Piano and Pianify e.g). Anyway my points are: *the app can’t hear my piano *more not member songs *add more songs So I hope you can do that. That’s all bye! Regards, Vernisia.Version: 1.5.5
✓ Mmmm...😐Well I suppose this app is ok, but it is super annoying that you have to have a actual piano/keyboard to use this app! Also the videos are super annoying, and they go for way to long. The narrator is over thinking the publics time, as lots of people who want to learn piano don’t have the time to learn about Every Single Key! Anyway I hope this feedback helped..Version: 1.0.2
✓ It’s okI have been leaning to play the piano for a long time now and I just could not find the right app then I found this app last year and I thought it was great but then I stoped and I got the app again but this time it waa not as good because you have to pay just to have some lessons and like the song book so now I have a different app that I now have and really like!.Version: 1.3.7
✓ Doesn’t workI use my digital keyboard but half the time the app is telling me I’ve played something wrong when I haven’t and it’s really frustrating because the red is really annoying to see while I’m trying to learn. I asked support for help and they were completely useless. Also don’t pay for a whole years subscription. It’s so unnecessary..Version: 1.5.4
✓ Pls respond creator!This app was working perfectly on the same keyboard yesterday and when I tried to play it today it said it didn't recognise the keyboard. I didn't change any settings or anything. Also, if you're not planning to pay for premium. Without it, you only get to play for 10 minutes per day! Also you can't play ANY songs without paying. Very disappointed. :(.Version: 1.5.2
✓ Might just be a me thing?Overall its a decent piano app, though there are a few problems i’ve come across. For example on lesson 10, Left hand introductions, I played the correct notes every time, but it always registered it as the wrong note. I’ve also checked with the online keyboard they provide, and all the notes were correct. I’m not sure if thats just a bug that happened with me, or something. It used to work, but when i got to the Ode To Joy practice, it started happening. I’ve tried going back to old practices and songs, but it always registered wrong. I went back to the video, and it was the correct hand positioning. Im not sure if its just me, or if this is a problem other people experience, but this is one of the major issues i have at come across..Version: 1.3.7
✓ The game is not open any moreAfter last update the game is stoped working..Version: 1.1.2
✓ SubscriptionBe aware to cancel or to renew to your selected price or else they going to charge you the highest subscription price which will cost you $200. It’s unlike other app that charge the same price if you forgot to cancel or renew..Version: 1.1.9
✓ It’s okayIt’s good but after a week you have to pay and it has no notes only letters..Version: 1.3.8
✓ Ok...I am a kid, and I loved it at first, other than the fact it didn’t ask for my level, and treated me as a beginner, ai mean, I started playing a little before I even turned 5! I just decided to ignore that fact and give it a 4.5, but on Level 3, it just decided it wouldn’t listen anymore!!!😡I was working so hard and having fun with piano and this app and it just stopped listening!!!!! So I thought it was just this level, it’s fine. My rating dropped to a 4 or a 3.5. Then, it totally ruined my progress by saying I needed to buy a premium to keep continuing! So mad, it instantly dropped to a 2 or a one, I think it should ask your level, let you make multiple accounts, and it’s premium should be less expensive and include things like ,or more songs, or answers to questions ,or more accounts, or a zoom teacher or something, learning and skipping lessons should be available to everyone. But they deserve credit, so 1 star..Version: 1.3.5
✓ The good and the bad (update)So let’s start with good. This app has been great for me! I’ve been wanting to play piano for awhile but for some reason I have never been able to. I got a piano now and I’ve done some homework. Learned how it works, where the notes are, what the pedals are for, etc. Well I couldn’t find a teacher (especially since the pandemic) so I settled for an app. A friend suggested this app and they say a lot of good things about it. He plays amazing and I hope to someday be in his level. So far, this app has taught me so much! I like the choices of songs and it pretty fun. Now the things that kinda annoys me is the note recognition. Its actually very annoying having the app tell you the notes are wrong even after checking finger position and everything. I would love some help or maybe someone to tell me what to do. Idk if it’s my iPad, the piano or the app. Might be the app, cause then why would I write this. Anyway I would very much appreciate it if someone would help. Thank you have a nice day ☺️. Update: Noooo now it won’t recognize ANY notes while playing in the songbook 😭. HELP WHY WONT IT WORK. ITS NOT MY IPAD ITS NEW AND SO IS THE PIANO. There go your stars....Version: 1.3.7
✓ I like piano academy butI like it I guess but I’m meant to be on level 3 but I have to pay money about $17 I love the game but there is a really good amount of problems with this game sorry but I can’t fix this problem so whoever made this game please fix the problems and give people there money back please..Version: 1.3.7
✓ Great app but…This is a great app for beginners like myself who have no time to take formal piano lessons. However, I had to cancel my subscription for now due to a couple of issues. 1. The app does not allow you to go back or adjust the speed of the notes and for a slow sight-readers, this is very challenging. You’ll have to restart the song or wait for it to finish instead of working on the part you find yourself stuck every single time. 2. The app has a hard time registering my piano and this happens very frequently. 3. No sheet music available to practice on depending on your skill level. If these issues are fixed, I’ll definitely re-subscribe. Until then, adios!.Version: 1.5.2
