Common questions

Can I play with the computer keyboard?

Yes. The row A S D F G H J K plays the white keys and W E T Y U O P plays the black keys. Z and X change the octave and the space bar works as the sustain pedal.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes, with several fingers at once, and you can slide from one key to the next. Turn the phone sideways to see more keys.

How does it know the chord?

It looks at the notes you are holding and compares them with the chord types: major, minor, seventh, diminished, suspended and more. The lowest note shows the inversion.

Is the sound downloaded?

No. The piano sound is created on your device the moment you press a key, so it starts instantly and works even with a slow connection.
