Train your musical ear through games. NoteHunter is two apps in one: a guided Journey that teaches music the way real teachers do, and a Free Play sandbox where serious musicians drill the skills they actually need.
THE JOURNEY (great for kids, parents, and beginners)
A step-by-step path through four biomes: Meadow, Forest, Mountains, and Ocean. Each biome adds new skills in the order music education actually teaches them. Higher or Lower comparisons, melodic contour, Sol-Mi singing, intervals, rhythm patterns, and sight reading. A friendly Bear mascot walks the map with you. Meadow and Forest are free; Mountains and Ocean unlock with Premium.
FREE PLAY (for musicians who know what they want to practice)
Jump into any drill at any difficulty:
• Note Practice: identify random notes across your chosen pitch range
• Interval Training: recognize the distance between two notes
• Rhythm Hunter: drag and drop beats, from quarter notes to complex syncopation
• Sheet Reading: read notes from the staff with adjustable difficulty ranges
INSIDE EVERY MODE
• AI Coach gives personalized tips and explanations as you play
• Add reference notes to ground your practice
• Multiple time signatures (4/4, 3/4, 2/4, 6/8)
• Track streaks, accuracy, and progress across all modes
• Haptic feedback so you feel every beat

I really wanted to like this but there are 2 big flaws. 1) There is no instructional info so it’s not appropriate for true beginners. 2) There are errors in the rhythm section. For example, it shows a dotted half note as having 4 beats, and tells you an answer is incorrect if you enter two connected eighth notes instead of two separate eighth notes, which doesn’t make any sense.
New — Timed Mode! Turn on a per-question countdown in any Free Play drill — Notes, Intervals, Rhythm, Sheet Reading, or Higher or Lower — and train your ear under pressure. Race the clock to earn three new Game Center achievements, and follow your timed runs in Stats. Plus bug fixes and improvements. Thanks for playing!
