About Absolute Pitch Trainer
Perfect pitch and ear training in 5 minutes a day. Hear a tone — name the note. Nine difficulty levels from beginner to chord progressions, free to start. Absolute Pitch Trainer turns ear training into a daily habit you'll actually keep. Hear a pure tone. Tap the note you heard. Watch your accuracy climb session over session — through nine levels of difficulty, from three colored notes for absolute beginners to full chord progressions and melodies for serious students. THE SCIENCE Folk wisdom says perfect pitch is "inborn or never." That's only half the story. Children can develop full absolute pitch during a critical childhood window — especially with early musical training. But adult ears keep learning too: focused, repeated practice still sharpens accurate note recognition at any age. We built the app on the part of the science that works for grown-up brains. BUILT FOR REAL EARS • 9 difficulty levels — from 3 notes with color hints to full chords and melodies • Five game modes — Practice (calm, no pressure), Quiz (timed, scored), Survival (one life: how many notes in a row?), Weak Notes (drills exactly the notes you miss and mix up) and Custom Notes (train only the notes you pick, like the black keys) • Daily Challenge — a different challenge for every day of the week: white keys, black keys, intervals, three octaves, chords, precision and melodies • Reference tuning fork — tap for a clean C-D-E-F-G-A-B reference scale • A real recorded concert grand, violin and clarinet, every note tuned exactly to A = 440 Hz — or the classic E-Piano • Ear Reset — an optional masking sound between notes, so you name each note on its own instead of hearing the step from the last one PROGRESSION YOU CAN FEEL • XP and ranked progression from beginner to master • Two streak systems side-by-side — a daily-play streak that rewards showing up across sessions, plus an in-quiz answer streak that ignites an "On Fire" mode once you chain enough correct answers in a row • Achievement system across Common / Rare / Epic / Legendary rarities • Per-note mastery tracking — after every round, see which notes you missed and what you heard instead • Streak calendar showing every day you played this month STATS YOU'LL ACTUALLY READ • Historical accuracy curve — 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, or a full year of progress • Time played, total quizzes, correct answers, longest streak • Note mastery rings for every pitch class • Game Center leaderboards for career XP, best quiz score and longest Survival run • Share your streak or score as a story-ready image — and dare your friends to beat it POLISH WHERE IT MATTERS • Four hand-tuned color palettes (Tube Glow, Jukebox Chrome, Reel-to-Reel, Rainbow Pride) • Multiple alternate app icons • Optional daily reminders so a busy week doesn't break your streak • iCloud sync — your progress moves with you to a new iPhone and survives a reinstall • Six languages: English, Deutsch, Español, Français, 日本語, 简体中文 PREMIUM Premium Lifetime is a one-time purchase, no subscription. It unlocks the higher difficulty levels, Weak Notes and Custom Notes training, violin, clarinet and guitar, advanced statistics, and exclusive app icons. It's not too late to start. — Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://emign.github.io/absolute-pitch-trainer-legal/
What’s new
Version 1.6.0 · Updated October 25, 2026
New: Custom Notes. Pick exactly the notes you want to train — only the black keys, say — and over how many octaves. Also new: a recorded violin and clarinet, every note tuned to A = 440 Hz (the synthesized violin stays as "Violin (Synth)"), and Ear Reset, an optional masking sound between notes so you name each note on its own.
