NOTIVA
Your first step toward reading music! Made by a musician, for musicians.
Notiva is a complete musicianship trainer: real-time sight-reading, scored
rhythm games, a full rhythm composer, a polyrhythm lab, and a professional
metronome, in one fast, clean app.
SIGHT-READING
Play a note and Notiva hears it instantly through your device microphone.
No cables, no setup.
- Real-time pitch detection, reliable even in loud rooms
- Treble and bass clef with adjustable range and ledger lines
- Every key signature, with support for transposing instruments
- Sharps and flats, toggleable per practice range
- Graded test levels with stars, or open-ended practice
- Sustain training for winds, strings, and voice
RHYTHM GAMES
Tap the rhythm as it scrolls past the hit line.
- 1 Voice and 2 Voices modes with graded tiers from Beginner to Legend
- Tuplets, dotted rhythms, syncopation, 32nd notes, and more as you climb
- Endless Challenge mode with streaks and high scores
COMPOSER (new in 3.0)
Write your own rhythms and bring them to life.
- Notes, rests, dotted values, and tuplets up to complex ratios
- Two independent voices
- Any time signature, with meter changes mid-piece
- Copy and paste, per-note beaming, undo and redo
- Listen in place, or play your piece as a game

- Share any etude as a link that opens right in Notiva
POLYRHYTHM LAB (new in 3.0)
Build any two-voice polyrhythm, nest tuplets three levels deep, listen with
per-voice mixing, then drill it endlessly at your tempo.
METRONOME
A serious practice metronome, free of clutter.
- Per-beat accents and mutes, any meter, beat grouping
- Subdivisions per beat, including fives and sevens
- A tunable click: set the pitch and crispness of every voice
- Presets for your regular setups
- Keeps clicking with the screen off or the app in the background
MADE FOR STUDENTS AND TEACHERS
Set a range, pick a key, and hand the device over. Guided tours walk new
players through every page, and a practice-time goal keeps sessions honest.
PRIVACY
No accounts. No ads. No tracking. Practice works fully offline. The only
thing that ever leaves your device is an etude you choose to share, and it
contains musical data only.

Ratings & Reviews
• Now in German, Spanish and French. Set the language in Settings.
• Metronome: louder, cleaner click. Grouped beats for compound and asymmetric meters, half and whole note tempo marks, quick accent presets. Sound now returns on its own after a call.
• Sight-reading: the staff fills the screen, high notes are no longer cut off, up to seven ledger lines.
• Viola and cello clefs.
• Share or export a saved etude as PDF from Custom Exercises.
