Kalimba Trainer is a practice app designed to support 17-key kalimba training.
Play along with falling notes and practice efficiently using both your eyes and ears.
You can practice with built-in songs, import MIDI files, and create MIDI songs directly in the app.
Songs you create can be played back for review and downloaded as MIDI files.
You can adjust the key positions to match your real kalimba and change the playback speed, making it easier to practice at your own pace.
Using a phone stand to keep the screen in a comfortable position can make practice even smoother.

Developer Response
We’re sorry the practice experience was frustrating. After you tap Start, the guide moves at the song’s set tempo; it does not currently listen to a physical kalimba or follow your timing. We’re sorry this wasn’t clear. If the guide did not move at all, please let us know which song and mode you used so we can investigate.
Fixed an issue that could cause an analysis error when creating a song from sheet music on iOS.
