Report an issue"Poco-a-Poco: Music Reading Essentials" helps learning and practicing sheet music reading, understanding musical signs and symbols, note names, rhythms, intervals and more.
Designed with the help of professional piano teachers, this fundamental tool is for those who are learning to play piano or other musical instruments, as well as for anybody who needs practicing sheet music reading.
The application has four sets of flash cards divided into stages with increasing knowledge level. By choosing either one or a combination of any of the four sets, you can start testing yourself and study at the same time. The specially designed shuffling algorithm will start showing more often those cards, which were not answered correctly.
Choose Notes from either Treble clef, Bass clef, Alto clef or the combination of Treble and Bass clefs ("Grand" mode).
Use "Timer" to test your knowledge.
The "Results" screen will show your progress as well what you need to continue working on.
With the "Cards Info" screen you can see how the cards are arranged by sets and stages.

8 of 15Nice interface and good flexibility with progress tracking.
Your app is not accurate. Stage 1 so far has incorrectly made A as C. There may be more inaccuracies. I want my money back!
I just purchased this app and it is all wrong in stage 1. It states that A is a G and C is a E note etc. I have not gone any further because if these two are wrong then the app is dysfunctional ! Clearly a VERY POORLY WRITTEN APP!
Not impressed at all. How about first teaching the notes before you quiz the poor students. Sort of ridiculous. Meanwhile the percentages are wrong. Stage 2, treble clef, missed none but was given an 81% rating. Again ridiculous. Uninstalling.
Perfect app to brush up on all your reading skills, especially if you've bin away from your music for quite some time. Also, great for a beginner just learning. Great if all music teachers suggested this app for their students. Five stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. Jim.
Fourths and fifths are PERFECT. Was looking for major and minor intervals. Harmonic and melodic are very confusing.
I bought this app to learn my notes, but was very surprised to see it doesn't teach you anything. It just quizzes you, so you must have previous knowledge of music notes. Sorry I bought it :(
I thought learning piano would be hard but with Poco’a’Poco it came out very rewarding in the end. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn piano.
