Note Adventure is a playful app that teaches kids to read music: notes travel along a band, and you hit them on the keyboard, with letter keys, with a violin-bow gesture or on your real instrument. There’s also note and ear training, a compose mode, duels, quests and trophies.

Check the silent switch and the device volume. On iPad the app has to be tapped once before sound is allowed – that’s what the “Tap to start” screen is for.
The first time you open microphone mode, your device asks for permission. If you declined, you can allow it again under Settings → Privacy & Security → Microphone. Note detection works best with a single instrument in a quiet room.
Under Settings → “Compensate for delay” the app measures the delay of your screen and speaker. Tap along to the beat a few times and the timing will be right.
With the same Apple Account and iCloud turned on, your progress is transferred automatically. On the new device the app offers it at startup, or tap Settings → “Restore from iCloud”. In addition, Settings → “Save backup” creates a file that you can load on the new device with “Load backup”.
Reset: Settings → “Reset progress”. Delete: on the start screen tap “Edit profiles”, tap the profile, then “Delete profile”.
Yes: Settings → “Language”. You can choose English, German or “Automatic” (follows your device language). In English the notes are called C D E F G A B; in German, B is called H.
Kids’ and holiday songs, classical hits, songs from around the world and original pop songs. All songs are in the public domain or were written exclusively for the app. You can write your own songs in compose mode.
After switching devices, tap Settings → “Restore purchases”. The purchase is tied to your Apple Account and, with Family Sharing, works for the whole family.
