New: choose your own curriculum. Pick a focused core or the full syllabus across every topic and key — and change your mind any time without losing progress. Know your keys cold. Scale Degree turns music theory into something you can recall under pressure — not facts you looked up once, but fluency you keep. A few minutes a day, one key at a time. Practice that adapts Every question is scheduled by spaced repetition, so you see what you're about to forget and skip what you already know. Difficulty ramps inside a lesson and backs off when you're struggling. Sessions stay short on purpose. Teaches, then tests Each topic opens with a plain-language explanation and a worked example. Theory terms inside questions are tappable — blank on "leading tone" mid-question and the definition is one tap away, without losing your place. Earn your keys Start in C. Master a key and the next one opens. Choose how far you want to go: a focused core, or the full curriculum across every topic and key. What's covered Scale degrees · major and natural minor scales · pentatonics · intervals · key signatures and relative minors · the circle of fifths · diatonic triads · seventh chords · suspended chords · chord formulas · chord progressions · the seven modes Roman numerals and Nashville numbers throughout. Built to respect you No account. No ads. No tracking. Your progress syncs privately through your own iCloud — we can't see it, and there's nothing to sign up for.

Outstanding App for Learning

I’ve tried learning this stuff many many years ago and it never stuck with me. But this app is really starting to connect a lot of the dots for me that were missing back when I tried to learn. I’m really excited with my progress so far and think I will actually understand it all this time.

Great for learning the notes, not just the shapes!

It was really nice to find an app that doesn't assume you read music or focus on a specific instrument. I play guitar and I wanted to find an app that took me away from my fretboard to really learn the notes in the scales and this has been great! The spaced repetition helps me continue to learn and reinforce the lessons I had yesterday.
