Tenuto FAQ
Is Tenuto free?
Yes, Tenuto is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is Tenuto legit?
✅ The Tenuto app appears to be high-quality and legitimate. Users are very satisfied.
The app is great! Nice and clean. My favorite feature is the keyboard reverse identification, which I use with my midi digital piano.
The one improvement I would like to see is the ability to practice not only single notes with the keyboard reverse identification, but also to be able to practice chords and arpeggios.
Nagyon
Igényes, használható kis app, csak javasolni tudom. Nagyon szépen kiegészíti az elméletet tartalmazó appot, a Theory-t.
The best tool of its kind
I am quite new to music theory. Used the musictheory.net website and found that there's an app for ALL there is. Actually two apps, one for lessons, one for exercises. This is the latter one. It is handy, can be used anywhere for practicing. Professionals can test their knowledge, beginners like me can enhance their learning and practice on the go.
very useful!
Best app for beginners
I am learning guitar. Been at it for a little over a year.
This app was instrumental in helping me internalize the fretboard. I finally started the ear training sections, and it is super useful. Just showed it to my guitar teacher, and he was surprised such a professional tool existed for beginners.
So many options for customizing your lessons too.
Great App!
Are there any chances of adding more scales for scale identification?
Bass position symbols training
I love this app! It has definitely contributed to me having A’s in music theory and my ear training class. The only thing i think it needs is bass position symbol training. Thank you!
Wonderful app
Hi, Love the app so much, it’s taught me a bunch. I like how for example in sheet music interval identification the treble and bass are lined up by middle C so it gives you a sense of that link between them, but it would also be wonderful to have a setting making them farther apart, as they usually are in sheet music, and practice naming those intervals between clefs even with that extra distance.
Also, more specific chord ear training would be nice - with a reference note, play the exact chord on the little keyboard. As of now you can only practice naming the quality of the chord, which is useful too but not in the same way.
My favorite app on the App Store.
I have been using this app to gamify my learning and get good at piano relatively quickly. I use it to practice on the go and at the keyboard. It has helped me rapidly become fluent at reading sheet music. Now I am learning to identify intervals and other important aspects of learning to play jazz. And since, to me, there is nothing cooler than learning to play music, I think this is maybe the impactful to my life, as well as my favorite, app on the App Store.
Features
All a feature that lets us answer interval questions via letter name.
Example :
What is a M7 of C backwards
From a collection of letter notes, I would answer Db
Well worth it for a teacher
Been using the website for years so I decided to support them and buy there app. Now I don’t need an internet connection. Great app for teaching I use it for all my students
