Pitch Trainer helps you build real ear skills: identify notes, recognize intervals, hear chord quality, follow chord progressions, and detect scales with confidence. It's built around structured lessons plus fast custom drills, so you always know what to practice next and you can improve consistently.
World-class training tools:
1) Pitch Trainer (Note Recognition)
- Train your ear to identify individual notes by name.
- Structured lessons that expand across the 12 chromatic notes
- Practice across different octaves (low, medium, high, random)
- Optional reference pitch to help you learn faster
2) Interval Training
- Learn to recognize the distance between two notes.
- Train all common intervals from minor 2nd through octave
- Melodic vs harmonic options (separate vs together)
- Ascending and descending practice
- Short theory explanations and mnemonics to lock concepts in
3) Chord Recognition
- Train your ear to identify chord quality and type.
- Practice major, minor, diminished, augmented, and 7th chords
- Progress from triads to more advanced chord types
- Build reliability across different octave ranges
4) Chord Progressions
- Train your ear to follow how chords move in real music.
- Learn common progressions like I-IV-V, ii-V-I, and I-V-vi-IV
- Practice cadences, turnarounds, and 12-bar blues
- Build the skills to hear song structure by ear
5) Scale Detection
- Train your ear to recognize scales and modes.
- Major, natural/harmonic/melodic minor, and the modes (Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian)
- Pentatonic, blues, whole tone, and chromatic scales
- Progress from familiar scales to advanced tonalities
Practice your way
Customize the experience to match how you learn and what you play:
- Note display options: sharps, flats, or solfege
- Transpose displayed notes to any key (helpful for transposing instruments)
- Choose different instrument sounds (piano, guitar)
- Select exactly what you want to drill: specific notes, intervals, chords, progressions, or scales

I found this app on an Instagram promo, and I’m glad I did. I am a music student, and the app provides a great resource for ear training practice alongside my studies. There are features that I would like to see added, but the app is fairly new and the newly-implemented community discussion board is a great way to discuss and request new changes. It shows that the developers really care about designing a quality product that can help musicians at any level. I think the subscription is worth the money!
Amazing for Young Musicians!
Lucca_Andy
This app has been amazing for my 7-year-old daughter, who is a pianist. We’ve been using it for ear training, and I can already see a big improvement in her ability to recognize notes and pitches by ear. She actually enjoys practicing with it too! And please ignore the reviews complaining about the pricing — in my opinion, it is worth every penny. Such a great tool for young musicians. Highly recommend!
Irritating for advanced learners
Lucas2114
The app presents itself as being useful for advanced learners, but the experience is extremely frustrating. First, I made it clear in the initial questionnaire that I'm at an advanced level, but then in spite of that, once I got through the questionnaire, I had to go through basic exercises, and then I got a perfect score on the basic exercises.But then it still kept forcing me, even when all my answers were correct, to do extremely basic lessons like learning what a sixth is. Also, the poor MIDI sound quality is grating
Just Awesome and Fun
tmcdermott
A great way to brush up or to train your ear with challenging exercises, a must app for all!
Thanks for training with Pitch Trainer! Signing in is now clearer if you use a different email than before. We also made small improvements throughout the app.
