In this day and age, you can find an app for just about anything. Cooking, exercise, learning a language, brain-training, origami, lucid dreaming, just name an activity and there will be an app to go along with it. Learning an instrument is no exception to this, so I have decided to find out whether you can learn to play the piano using an app. Over the past month, I have been using the three most popular music tutor apps currently on the App Store/Google Play Store. They all feature interactive lessons, note-recognition and come with both free and paid content. I have tested all of the apps on a Samsung Galaxy S8, without using any headphones or microphones. I have reviewed each app in three categories, which are: Piano Basics: how well the app teaches the fundamentals of piano playing, such as finding your way around the piano, reading musical notation and playing rhythmically.
