Try it now
The whole idea, in one question.
Listen to two notes, then name the interval. The demo synthesizes its sound in your browser. Nothing to download; headphones help.
Press play to hear two notes
Then name the distance between them
Played
The app adds chords, scales, progressions, dictation, pitch and rhythm.
Eight exercises
Everything a working ear needs.
Each one has its own ladder of levels, its own mastery record, and its own idea of which item you're weakest on right now.
Chords
17 qualities from triads to altered dominants, with inversions and voicings.
8 levels · 2 freeScales & modes
14 scales and modes, heard as a whole rather than spelled out.

A cadence sets the key, then you place the note inside it. The functional ear.

How it adapts
It keeps score per interval, not per session.
Tritave brings your weaker sounds and overdue reviews back into practice. Your progress page shows accuracy, activity, and mastery for each skill.
- Per-item mastery
- A minor sixth going down is its own skill, scored on its own. See where you’re improving and which sounds need another listen.
- Weighted by decay
- Recent answers count for more, and an item you haven't met for days climbs back up the queue.
- Levels you earn
- The next level unlocks at 85% over at least 16 answers, and only once you've heard every item in the current one.
- A daily workout
- Three short blocks picked for the day: your weakest skill, your most overdue review, and one on rotation.
- Streaks that mean it
- A Home and Lock Screen widget carries the streak and the day's goal, and it decays honestly when you skip.
The sound
Synthesized live, never a sample library.
Hear every exercise on piano, guitar, marimba, organ, strings, or a pure tone. Every note is created on your device as you play.
Try different sounds as your ear improves. Set the reference pitch and playback pace to suit your instrument and the way you practise.
- Six instruments
- Grand piano, nylon guitar, marimba, organ, strings and a pure tone. Piano and pure tone are free.
- Movable reference
- Set A4 anywhere you need it. Baroque at 415, orchestral at 442 — the whole app retunes.
- Your pace
- Choose relaxed, normal, or quick playback, and practise in a lower, middle, or higher register.
- Latency measured
- Rhythm answers are scored against your device's actual output delay, not an assumed one.
Pricing
Start free. Pay when it's working.
Ten levels are free, across five of the eight exercises — enough to find out whether this is how you want to practise.

Questions
Before you start.
Do I need to read music?
No. Intervals, chords, scales and rhythm are all answered by picking a name or tapping, and nothing asks you to read a staff. Melodic dictation uses a piano keyboard, so you play back what you heard rather than write it down.
Will this give me perfect pitch?
No, and be wary of anything that says it will. Absolute pitch is very hard to acquire as an adult. What Tritave builds is relative pitch and functional hearing — recognising an interval, a quality, or a scale degree in context — which is the thing musicians actually use, and which does improve with practice at any age.
How long should a session be?
Short and often beats long and rare. The default daily goal is five minutes, and the daily workout is three blocks of five questions. Ear training tires quickly; when you start guessing, stop.
Does it work offline?
Practice and progress tracking work offline, with no account or sign-in. Buying or restoring Pro requires Apple’s services and an internet connection. Privacy and support are also readable inside the app offline.
What happens to my progress?
Progress is saved on your device. Your Apple backup may include it depending on your settings; we never receive it. It does not automatically sync across devices. See the privacy policy.
Why "Tritave"?
A tritave is the 3:1 frequency ratio — what the octave's 2:1 is to ordinary tuning, the tritave is to some others. It's the interval you get from the third harmonic, which is also the first one your ear meets that isn't just the same note again.
Can I practise one specific thing?
Yes, with Pro. Custom drills let you choose exactly which items to include, the range, the pace and the instrument — useful when you have one interval or one chord quality that keeps catching you out.
