Akoe: Ear Training & Intervals

Akoe is an ear training app that teaches you to recognize intervals, chords, scales and single notes by ear. Short guided lessons build your relative pitch one sound at a time, with real instrument recordings and instant feedback. No ads, no account, and everything works offline.

HOW IT WORKS
Listen, then tap the answer you hear. Akoe shows right away whether you were correct. Replay the question as often as you need, then tap any other answer to hear how it compares. Hearing two sounds side by side is how the differences start to stick.

FOUR TRAINERS
• Intervals: Name the distance between two notes, from the minor second to the octave. Practice all 12 intervals ascending, descending or played together.
• Chords: Tell 10 chord qualities apart, from major, minor, diminished and augmented triads to sus2 and sus4 chords and major, minor, dominant and half-diminished sevenths.
• Scales and modes: Identify 11 scales, including major, the natural, harmonic and melodic minor, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, the major and minor pentatonic, and blues.
• Pitch: Name a single note with no reference tone. This is the classic perfect pitch exercise, and regular practice builds your pitch memory.

GUIDED LESSONS
• 26 lessons across intervals, chords and scales.
• Start with only the octave and the perfect fifth. Each lesson adds a new sound to the ones you already know.
• Work up to all 12 intervals in any direction, all 10 chord qualities and all 11 scales.
• Every lesson is open from the start, so you can begin at your own level.
• Akoe saves your accuracy for each lesson, so you can see what needs more practice.

FREE PRACTICE
Choose exactly which intervals, chords or scales you want to drill. Work on the two you keep confusing, or test yourself on everything at once.

REAL INSTRUMENT SOUNDS
Train with recordings of piano, strings, acoustic guitar, electric guitar and organ, or switch to a pure sine tone. Practice with the sound of your own instrument, then change it to challenge your ear.

MADE FOR FOCUSED PRACTICE
• Works offline: every sound is included in the app.
• No ads and no sign-up. Your practice history is saved on your device.
• Auto-next moves to the next question for you.
• Light and dark themes.
• Layouts for phones and tablets, in portrait and landscape.

WHO IT IS FOR
Akoe is for singers, guitarists, pianists, producers, songwriters and music students. Ear training helps you play by ear, transcribe songs, sing in tune, improvise and hear the music theory you have learned. Beginners can start with two intervals. Experienced musicians can go straight to seventh chords and modes.

A few minutes of ear training a day adds up. Use Akoe as your daily ear trainer for interval recognition, chord identification, scale and mode practice, and note naming. Open Akoe, listen, and name what you hear.
