Apps I LoveTonal Energy This is a fantastic tuner, capable of switching back and forth between equal and just tuning, playing reference pitches and chords, analyzing pitch and more. But my students' favorite feature? The green SMILEY FACE that lights up if they are in tune!
Bandmate Chromatic Tuner Not only is this tuner app free, but when students play, it shows them the written pitch on the staff transposed and in the correct octave for them. So helpful for young musicians!
Tempo Need a programmable metronome capable of subdivision and multiple meters? Check this one out!
Note Names This app lets your students practice their note reading skills in a timed fashion, much like they will need when reading and performing music. There's even a school mode that keeps data on how your students are doing.
InTune My students have fun playing this game that helps them improve their intonation!
