- Fixed an orientation bug on iPad where settings screen was chopped off.
I recommend using a MIDI connected piano. If you use the microphone and are having trouble detecting the notes, go to my app's settings and change the "Sensitivity". Default value is 5.

Previous:
- The timer now only starts when you press the first correct note. This prevents your average from being skewed while you position your hand then pressing the first note. Note that this will work best when using MIDI and not the microphone as the microphone might pick up "noise" which can be the "correct" note.
- App now works in upside down orientation too - this might help users who have a phone connected via MIDI as the USB port can now be at the top and practice sight reading.
- Added MIDI support: Now you can practice via a MIDI connected instrument. I developed and tested using a Yamaha P115 Piano connected to iPhone/iPad with this cable (other MIDI cables should work too): https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0829NV65Q/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1UM1J239QRPCJ&psc=1
- Increased the microphone sensitivity of the app and added a new setting to change it.
- Fixed a bug where custom note collections would lose the sharp & flats after restart.
- Reduced the frequency of review prompt.
- Updated App Store metadata.
- Switched to blue color theme.
- Small UI tweaks.
We listened to you and made a bunch of improvements from you feedback:
1. We removed all ads from the app for a pure distraction free experience even for free users!
2. Added a play and pause button in the app.
3. Added a pure white background and a pure black background theme.
4. The Treble and Bass sign on the staff is now accurate.
5. The Note on the staff is now accurate and touches the lines just like real sheet music on paper.
6. The charts now say "Average: X seconds" instead of the old short form "s" only.
7. A few users mentioned that the hints should use the traditional form of naming. For example previously, a E note would have a hint "E or F flat". Now there is a switch in the settings called "Traditional note hints" which if on, will only say "E" in the hint.
8. A few small UI tweaks to make the app more appealing and accurate to real sheet music.

1. Fixed the auto-dimming issue.
2. Added Halloween & Christmas themes
3. Now you can add custom notes to practice with. You start off by creating a new collection (example C Scale). Then you add notes to it. The app displays a grand staff with how much average time you are spending on each note (including that specific Octave). You can tap these notes to add to the collection. Flats, Naturals and Sharps are all supported.
For scales, you can keep the shuffle option off. For others, you can enable shuffle option.
Notes can be deleted from this collection. They can also be re-arranged in a "un-shuffled" collection by long pressing on a note and moving it around.
This grand staff is also a good way to know how you are doing on individual notes in each Octave as the graphs only showed overall average time.
