About this app

Ear training for intervals, clusters (harmonic), phrases, modes / scales, chords, tuning and perfect pitch.

High quality sampled piano plus midi sounds.

Listen feature to compare the question to all possible responses in order to find and understand the right answer.

Helps to associate intervals with common melodies to make them easier to learn and remember.

Extensive options including tempo, instrument, note velocity, pitch range, rhythm plus responses to correct and incorrect answers. Very customisable questions - from a phrase using eg only perfect 4ths and 5ths to a cluster using eg Dorian on F#.

Continuous Play - repeat question a set number of times then display the answer before moving on to the next one. Optional text to speech for announcing the root note and answers. Basic speech recognition for entirely hands free use.

This is the free ad-supported version - there is also a Donate version available which does not contain ads.

While many apps offer interval ear training, this one has an incredibly important asset in the Continuous Play mode which has allowed me to practice while driving without the need to click on anything. It's been truly a game changer. I would appreciate some tips on how to think about intervals and strategies to distinguish them (esp harmonic) other than repetition but it's beyond the scope of the app. There also many settings I dont get so possibly the app is even better than I understand ;)

Thanks Joro - I'm glad you find Interval Recognition useful! The Question Mark button in the top right (or menu - Contextual Help) explains some of the settings. But please send me an email etc if you have any questions. In terms of practise - a little every day rather than all at once. And work on just a few intervals at once. Peter :-)

This app is slightly harder to use than the other best apps but it has a much more flexible melody recognition trainer. It is light years ahead of the other apps for creating custom exercises for yourself. There's no parameter that isn't tweakable. Intervals, scales, octaves, timing, etc etc. It also has an almost unlimited number of different instruments available for exercises. Something all the other apps are sorely lacking. This is a winner

2/08/20 Learning Intervals? Perfect. 3/24/21 When I started I was basically tone deaf. I would focus on two intervals at a time and try to tell the difference for hours with no progress. Literally thousands of trials. Sence then I have leared to hear all intervals within an octave, ascending and descending with above 94% success rate. Sometimes I think the app could be more random in selecting the interval, but it works well, and my improvement speaks for the effectiveness.
