About this app

Note Flash helps you improve your sight reading skills for sheet music. This is the most intuitive way of learning how to read sheet music notes as it listens via the microphone to make sure you play the correct note in the correct octave. Note Flash is the ONLY app which also has accidentals (sharp and flat notes) along with ledger lines for advanced players. Note Flash is also the ONLY app to show graphs on your progress in recognizing notes faster. This way you will know which notes you are spending more time thinking.

**How to use**

Play the Note shown on screen on the piano and the app will listen via the microphone. You must play in the correct octave too - Note Flash is very intelligent to recognize the correct octaves.

If played correct, the app shows a new note on screen. If you can't remember, then you can tap "Show Hint". The app is built for infinite practice which encourages practice more as it makes note reading into a game.

Note Flash learns which note you are getting wrong or spending more time thinking and shows you more often. You can view your progress graphs for each note and both staff. This way you will know exactly how long you spend thinking of each note and how it's improving!

You can select which hand you would like to practice or you can do both randomly. You can also choose to show accidentals - sharp, flats as well enable ledger lines for more advanced students.

The app comes with a variety of beautiful themes and you can use your own picture too for the theme.

Please note that the app needs microphone access to listen to your piano. Your microphone data is completely safe as it never leaves your phone.

I have made this app with love because I myself struggled to read music when learning piano and the old paper flash cards were just not effective! So I really hope this helps you and your students out!

To be honest, I searched for many interactive sight reading apps that detect my pitch as I play my violin. It is one of the best, actually the best. And the purchased version is much more versatile for custom training. The app would be perfect of they added intervals and melodic chords training to the app to make people get used to note by note reading as well as patterns. Thank you so much for such an amazing app.

Purchased the in-app option for ledger lines and accidentals. The accidentals are misplaced (not lined up with the note head) and it only adds two ledger lines. Completely not worth it for students and unfortunaly in-app purchases don't have the same 15 minute refund window as regular app purchases. This app is a total con.

Useful but interrupts practice with a barrage of rating requests. No landscape support. The screen isn't kept awake so it locks unless I tap it periodically. I will increase my review if any of this is fixed. The rating prompting in particular is aggressively obnoxious to the point that I hope it is a bug and not intentional design.
