Five ways to train your ear

Every round is one chord or one progression — quick enough for a coffee break, focused enough to actually stick.

By ear

Free

Hear a chord, then name its root and quality. The heart of ear training.

By sight

Free

See the highlighted keys or fret shape and name the chord you're looking at.

Root key

Premium

Hear a I–V–vi–IV progression over a drum groove and name the key it's in.

Play it back

Premium

Play the shown chord on your instrument — Cadence listens and checks. Or tap the on-screen piano.

Playlists

Soon

Practice against real songs. In the works — not available yet.

Why you'll like it
Made for real practice

Piano & guitar

Real voicings for both instruments, with fretboard and keyboard diagrams that match what you play.

Private by design

Microphone audio is analysed on your device in real time — never recorded, stored, or sent anywhere.

Streaks & XP

Keep a daily streak and earn XP for every correct answer. Small wins that add up.

Practice reminders

Set a daily nudge at a time that suits you, scheduled locally on your device.

Your level, your chords

Choose which chord qualities to drill and whether sharps and flats appear. Presets get you started.

Works offline

All the audio is generated on your device, so you can practise anywhere — no connection required.
