Pretty helpful

Useful app with different categories to help you improve in multiple areas. I find the ear training section most useful as I am far from pitch perfect. You do have to pay for unlimited access but there are hundreds of free cards.

Great if you already fully understand music theory

From an "instructive" flashcard:

Q: List the order of sharps
A: FCGDAEB

From my thoughts:

Q: What on earth does this mean?
A: I am none the wiser. Many of the cards are like this, and I haven't yet found any learning part of the app. It means that this app is only useful if you already understand all of music theory and need to refresh your memory. I have used flashcard apps very successfully for foreign-language vocabulary memory-enhancement. But clearly to understand a concept, you have to have it explained. Come on Developers, you are very keen on saying how flashcard apps can use multimedia as a learning aid - why not test your app on real people (who don't yet know music theory) before releasing it to the public?

Music Theory, without the 3 figure price tag!

Only just starting using this app and it has impressed me. Being of low knowledge in the world of music theory I have already found this app to be helpful and instructive in learning the basic concepts of music theory. I would suggest anybody serious about using this program to attain a robust knowledge of MT with this program should pay the extra £2.99 for the full version (which is done in the app itself). It's a very good price for an app this good. 5 stars.
