Most kids quit guitar when practice starts to feel like work. Notey is different. Your guitar is the controller, and the game only works when you play it. Kids aren't doing lessons with game elements. They're playing a game that teaches them music. Created by Grammy-winning musicians. Designed to be fun first, educational always. —————————————— WHY IT WORKS —————————————— >>> REAL GAMEPLAY Not just gamified lessons. Designed to be fun on its own. >>> REAL SONGS. REAL PROGRESS. Start simple and build toward songs kids recognize and feel proud to play. >>> GUIDED WINS, NOT GUESSWORK A clear path means kids always know what to do next. —————————————— HOW IT WORKS —————————————— - Place your device in front of you and start playing - Your guitar is the controller — Notey listens in real time and responds as you play - Short sessions. Real progress. —————————————— BUILT FOR FAMILIES —————————————— Created specifically for kids learning guitar at home. - Structured learning path - Progress parents can see and hear - No lesson planning required - While designed for kids, beginner learners of any age are welcome. —————————————— WHAT YOU NEED —————————————— - iPhone or iPad - Acoustic, electric, or classical guitar —————————————— CONTACT US —————————————— - Questions or feedback?

Saving the world with your sweet guitar skills!

Alright, so imagine this: you pick up your guitar, ready for another mind-numbing round of scales, and suddenly—BAM!—you’re sucked into a magical world where your guitar is now a weapon of mass musical destruction. Welcome to Notey’s World, where gaming and guitar practice collide in the best possible way.I helped Notey, this cute little music note guy, rebuild his world by shredding through boss battles, minigames, and challenges that actually help you improve. Plus, there’s real-time feedback, so the game will straight-up tell you if you're crushing it—or, you know, if you’re playing like a cat walking on a piano.One of the best parts? It's not just about playing the right notes. You've got big bosses to fight, and I’m not talking about your boss at work who keeps giving you deadlines—these are epic video game bosses that require actual guitar skills to defeat. And the minigames? They’re the perfect mix of “this is fun” and “oh wow, I’m actually getting better.”The visuals are bright and cheerful, so even when you're totally bombing a song, the game makes it feel like you're still a rockstar. It’s like Guitar Hero, but way cooler because, well, it’s YOUR guitar. And instead of just pressing buttons, you’re playing real music and learning as you go. You get immediate feedback, which is helpful for improving your playing and also for keeping you humble when you realize you’ve been butchering “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” for weeks.So, if you’re tired of your usual practice routine and want to feel like you’re saving the world with your sweet guitar skills, Notey’s World is where it’s at. Just don’t be surprised if you start feeling like you can take on the world… or at least that next guitar solo!

Fun & clever music game — teaches you guitar as you play

So this was a very cool find! Notey’s World is a game that teaches you how to play guitar at the same time— using your actual physical guitar’s sounds to control the character. VERY kid-friendly, but also good for adults like me who just want to learn in a more engaging way. I’m very points and feedback-motivated, and this app gives you those. :) Seems like it’s organized in a way where you can tell the developers really thought about the progression of the exercises too from song to song—I feel the difficulty increasing game to game but not in a way that makes me overwhelmed. Overall really enjoying it so far and highly recommend! Definitely sending it around to folks I know who are learning guitar.

Much needed app for learning guitar!

I’m using this app to insert some different material and bring some variety to my curriculum. My students have taken a liking to the way that the scoring system works and have challenged themselves to not miss any notes. There are some issues with the accuracy of the app listening to the guitar, but it’s not much of a problem. Overall, this is a great supplement to my curriculum and once I add more custom tunes, I can see this being a primary course for my kids!Edit: From 4 stars to 5 because the lag was fixed and the customer service is superb!

Good in theory.

We downloaded this with the free trial today for our 7 year old aspiring musician. It was slow to start but seemed fun. Once we got into learning anything, we found that the informational prompts would fly through at the sound of my voice or any sound at all, while I was trying to read the prompts to my child. Therefore I was not able to teach it since they disappeared. We didn’t know what we should’ve been doing. This happened with the sensitivity all the way down too. I also checked settings to see if there’s a way to turn off the automatic prompts but there is not. Unfortunately this won’t work for us as a result. I hope this can be addressed as it seems promising otherwise.
