Real reviews from real users:

"Turns out, this app offers everything offered in that Berklee class of mine… in an app!"

— Damian E., No Treble

“The Quiztones app is far and away the best app Ive purchased. Its an incredible tool for all audio engineers and musicians ... My mixing has improved by leaps and bounds after just a few weeks with Quiztones.”

— Austin M.

“I love this app. Has taken my ability to hear frequencies to heights I never imagined was possible at this point in my career. This app is a game changer. Be consistent with it and it will change the way you hear music.”

— JayAllDay

“This is fantastic. I’m a bit of a workaholic, and blind, audio engineer. This is like the holy grail of an iOS game for me. It’s simultaneously fun and productive. I can play on the go to have better ideas of what I’m hearing on my phone for later correction in Pro Tools, or plug into one of my monitor sets at home to test my instinct... and it’s a game, with categories and scores. Much respect.”

“Trained me up well! This app helped me become MUCH faster with EQ, and helped me know with greater precision what Im hearing all around .”

Pros and cons of Quiztones: EQ Ear Training app for iPhone and iPad

Quiztones: EQ Ear Training app good for

This is my favourite app of all time. In ios 6 you cant hear the sound. Kind of important in this app to be able to listen. I hope it is fixed soon. This is the greatest recording engineer ear training piece of software ever made. I love you please fix the bug quick. And everyone buy this app because you might not have the same bug, and if you arent running ios6 it will work perfect and will be your favourite app of all time.

This will definitely be a big help, and here I thought I was a pro

No doubt one of the best apps on my iPad. Want to master your hearing? Buy this! And one for your friend too. Thanks for the quick bug fix. This thing goes on my dock!

Great app for learning to differentiate between various pitches. The basic version is a good start, but most people would want the "pro" add-on for the extra $$. With that, I like that they give you an example track of a female vocalist, bass guitar, acoustic guitar, etc. and you are expected to tell what frequencies have been adjusted with those tracks. Its easy to get tired of hearing the same example track over and over, but I guess you could load some samples into itunes and use those for identifying various frequencies (instead of just using songs by your favorite artists). The grading system is very simple to understand and the layout looks great and is easy to use. Very happy customer here - Thanks (also, works great on iOs 8.3 - iPhone 6).

Some bad moments

Doesnt work properly with iOS8. App crashes occasionally and you cant load your own songs from iTunes. Im asking for a refund...

Save the score ?!.. Paid again for 1/3 octave game ... For 4.99$, Good concept but .....

For the initial price, you only get one level (10 sounds), which takes about 45 seconds to play. The Pro level costs $2.99 more (inside app purchase), this is something to consider.

I mean, the whole buy then buy again is pretty darn Lame so off two stars, but the fact that it doesnt keep track of your performance is stupid (off two more stars). How would you see what you need to improve.... What are the points for??!! And instead of a Sine Wave Test Tone, you guys should get real life examples of feedback. I dont know, maybe just One same recording with a 32 band provoked over a mic and speaker to simulate. That would be 32 samples, multiplied by however many intensities you want, lets say 3- easy, Hard, and expert. This is a great tool, but lets improve it for the sake of this awesome app. It would be a shame for this potential to stay the same. Great App for beginners thou :) (1 star)

You pay $5 for this then when you open it up and want to do basically anything you need to upgrade to the pro version.... trash

Ive had this app for several months and its been amazing. With the addition of using your own library within the app is great. Love the new look and feel of the app. Great Job!
