Treble Trouble: Read Music
Notes, piano keys and rhythm
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Learn piano keys, clefs, rhythm, instruments and tunes one step at a time.
Treble Trouble teaches you to read music one small step at a time: the piano keys, the treble and bass staff, the beat, common instruments, and famous tunes to play.
LEARN
• Six paths with 66 short lessons: Piano keys, Treble, Bass, Beats, Tunes, and Instruments
• Every lesson goes learn, practice, quiz, with a helper when you need one and no timer or lives
• A real piano sound: tap any note on the staff or any key to hear it
• Beats with a soft metronome: tap rhythms, count rests, and learn what each note is worth
• 20 public-domain tunes, from Ode to Joy and Oh! Susanna to Für Elise
• Free Instruments path: name keyboards, strings, woodwinds, brass and percussion by their shapes
PLAY
• Practice notes on the staff, keys on the piano, or note lengths
• Treble, bass or both, with plain notes, sharps and flats, one note or four at a time
• Three challenges: race the clock, run a 10, 20 or 30 question drill, or play survival
• Best scores and streaks for every game, and progress through every path
PLAYERS
• Optional local players with animal avatars, or keep going as Guest
• Welcome on first launch; optional "Who's playing?" when the app opens
• Lessons and scores stay per player on this device
• No accounts. Family Sharing applies to the full-version purchase, not to these local players
YOUR NOTE NAMES, YOUR LANGUAGE
• Letters (C D E), solfège (Do Re Mi) or German names (H for B), matched to your language and easy to change
• 16 languages: English, Español, Português, Deutsch, Français, Italiano, Русский, Türkçe, 日本語, 简体中文, 繁體中文, 한국어, हिन्दी, العربية, فارسی, עברית

Ratings & Reviews
• Hear every instrument: tap a picture in the Instruments lessons to hear it play.
• Each instrument now shows its family (strings, brass …) and its name in big letters.
• The Instruments lessons come right after Bass, so they're easier to find.
