[CONTACT EMAIL]Frequently asked questions
Can I learn the piano with DayTone?
No. DayTone is a practice room, not a course: it assumes you already know what you are practising, from a teacher, a book or your own study, and gives you the repetitions, in every key, a few focused minutes a day.
How does a quick session work?
Choose how long you have (5 to 20 minutes) and your level. DayTone picks exercises at that level, draws a key, scale or chord for each, and times them. A cue tells you when to move on. Tap Shuffle on the preview if you would like a different session.
What is free practice?
Open any exercise from the library and start free practice: there is no time limit, and the clock counts up. When the exercise is played in a key, tap Next key to move to another one, never the same twice in a row. Exercises that go round the cycle of fifths move down a fifth instead.
Why do I only get 12 keys? Where is C♯ major?
By default DayTone uses the 12 keys most players think in: C, D♭, D, E♭, E, F, G♭, G, A♭, A, B♭ and B. Turn on Advanced key mode, before a session, a set or an exercise, to add the other spellings, such as C♯ major or D♯ minor.
How do I see the notes of a chord or a voicing?
Tap the key, scale or chord name, next to the piano icon, before or during an exercise. The keyboard shows the notes as the exercise plays them; for a cadence, step through each chord.
Can I turn the metronome off?
Yes: tap the tempo pill on the exercise card. It stays off for the rest of the session.
Does DayTone listen to me play?
No. DayTone never uses the microphone. It times your practice and shows you what to play; the listening is yours.
Do I need an internet connection or an account?
Neither. DayTone works entirely offline and has no account. See the privacy policy for the details.
Is DayTone coming to Android?
Very soon. DayTone comes to iPhone first, and to Android shortly after.
