Strings and Piano Keyboard

Practice or learn how to play piano on a smartphone or tablet.

Enjoy playing 3 note chords for your favorite songs by touching a chord pad/tab one at a time. Playing piano chords or other instruments on your mobile device has never been easier. For learners, the corresponding note numbers are also highlighted on the keys as you play the chords. Additional notes can be normally played by touching the keyboard keys while playing chords. It is best to use wired headsets for better stereo sound quality enjoyment. Users can also record and playback performances by pressing the corresponding buttons while not using a headset. Before recording the performance, please unplug the earphones and adjust the main volume to approximately 75% or more if the recorded sound volume is low. If you are searching for other piano keyboard apps for a better playing experience, you just found one.

New Features And Enhancements:

Six preset reverb and playback speed and pitch control audio enhancement effects accessible through a popup menu button.
