Is anyone else having trouble with the singing?

I was able to get through the mic portion of Rhythm, but I've failed every attempt at the mic questions in Ear Training.

All I need to do is sing 2 descending notes - am I really that tone deaf? Thank God (or maybe Him thank me) that it's been decades since I was singing from the pews.

Maybe it's a known bug or an issue with my phone? Moto G 2022.

Hi, thanks for trying Noteful! I'm sorry you are having trouble with the Ear Training questions in the app.

In the ear training questions, the app is listening for particular pitches--the same pitches it plays to you. It can be a bit sensitive sometimes. Slowing down and singing the note for longer can help with matching the pitch.

Just in case the question was unclear - even for the lesson on descending/ascending notes, the app expects you to sing the notes it plays for you--arbitrary descending / ascending notes won't work.

Try the above, and see if this works for you! If it doesn't work, you can post back here or write to us at benoteful@gmail.com
