What on the planet earth

Mary had a little lamb is wrong there’s not enough songs there should be rush e in there. The key board is tiny and I can’t zoom in I keep getting all the songs wrong because the key board is tiny. This was actually really good other than all the issues I whould recommend trying it out.

I got better recently using this app

Used to be great updates ruined it. Buyer beware

Used to be great but after so many updates now the app is making me play notes I don’t have on my keyboard despite connecting my keyboard and pressing both the last keys of each side. I have 49 key piano and also a casio lk-220 but this app doesn’t work anymore the midi plays too high or too low notes specially on F major . This is very upsetting because it is such a waste of money. Very unhappy with this app. I have the paid version on Windows and iPad.

Good app

This is really good if you get the full version. I found a midi for rush e and.. i for some reason had the best day ever.. please update soon! It hasn’t been updated in 3 YEARS.

Limited songs and impossible to “learn” the songs

Learning the songs on the piano ❌<br/>Listening to the songs on the piano✅

Makes no sense

Makes no sense and you have to buy it for anything good to happen

Great! But some suggestions.

Hello there! I love Synthesia as it's great for MIDI files! I do have some suggestions though: 1. Styles. Like to make it look like PFA or other midi players. 2. Note speed. Like the notes move kinda slow, I'm thinking you could add an option to change it. 3. Optimize. I use this for Black MIDI and Black I'd like it a bit optimized for million note counts. Anyway, other than this it's great!

Somethings need to be corrected, but overall it’s a good app

1. Easy and beginner-friendly<br/>Synthesia teaches piano using falling notes instead of traditional sheet music, making it very accessible for beginners. You don’t need prior music knowledge to start playing.<br/><br/>2. Strong practice features<br/><br/>* Slow down songs<br/>* Practice one hand at a time<br/>* Wait mode (won’t continue until you hit the right note)<br/><br/>These features make it a solid learning tool rather than just a game.<br/><br/>3. MIDI keyboard support<br/>You can connect a real keyboard and play properly, which makes the experience much more realistic and useful for actual learning.<br/><br/>4. One-time purchase model<br/>Unlike many apps, Synthesia uses a one-time purchase instead of a subscription, which is appealing for long-term use.<br/><br/>⸻<br/><br/>👎 Areas That Need Improvement<br/><br/>❌ 1. Purchase restore issues<br/><br/>Restoring purchases does not always work properly. When this happens:<br/><br/>* Paid features may remain locked<br/>* Users may feel forced to purchase the app again<br/><br/>This is a major reliability issue, especially for an app that promotes a one-time purchase model.<br/><br/>⸻<br/><br/>❌ 2. Sound quality problems<br/><br/>Most of the piano sounds are not very high quality and can come across as fuzzy or unrealistic.<br/>The electric piano tends to sound better, while the others feel outdated and less polished.<br/><br/>⸻<br/><br/>❌ 3. Loss of access to content<br/><br/>If purchases fail to restore correctly, access to songs and features can be lost.<br/>This can prevent users from playing or listening to music they previously used, which is frustrating and limits the app’s usefulness.<br/><br/>⸻<br/><br/>❌ 4. Outdated feel<br/><br/>The app works well at its core, but:<br/><br/>* The interface feels a bit old<br/>* Updates are not very frequent<br/>* Some features feel behind modern apps<br/><br/>⸻<br/><br/>❌ 5. Touchscreen limitations<br/><br/>Playing directly on a screen can be difficult because:<br/><br/>* Keys may feel too small<br/>* Accuracy can be inconsistent<br/><br/>The app works much better with a physical keyboard.<br/><br/>⸻<br/><br/>🧠 Final Verdict<br/><br/>Synthesia is a strong and enjoyable piano-learning app with a simple and effective concept. It’s especially useful for beginners and those using MIDI keyboards.<br/><br/>However, technical issues like purchase restoration problems and lower-quality sound hold it back from being a top-tier app.
