I'm a regular customer and an experienced pianist. In general I'm very happy with the tutorials. Some points that I feel would enhance my experience: 1. I used to enjoy the ability to comment on tutorials. 2. I enjoy tutorials that take the learning beyond simply saying play A, B, C notes. This doesn't help from a memorising perspective and full songs become tedious to get through note by note. 3. Similar point with respect to rhythm and counting. Teaching it as "G comes in on beat 2-ee" is not particularly helpful in actually learning the overall rhythm and feel. 4. I'm not sure if some kind of transposition can be integrated, but that would really be just perfect! Given that many of us do like to sing along, bringing it into a comfortable key would be a gamechanger. Cheers!

If I was just rating the lessons then I would give the app 4 or 5 stars … I really enjoy this approach to learning songs. Unfortunately the new interface has totally ruined the experience of searching for new pieces to play. On an IPad it’s now incredibly difficult to search and scroll and quite often when you’ve found a piece it crashes when you try to select it. This is all very frustrating because there was nothing wrong with the old interface. I’m not sure how much testing it went through but it really feels like a big step backwards. I still love the video lessons so I’ll persevere as they are the main thing … but I really hope there are some improvements/fixes in the pipeline.

Just needs more fusion jazz music. Your teaching song method is fine.

Not enough classical and not enough really simple tunes for the total beginner

There is no app in Australia so are reliant on a stable internet connection.

Nice app but slow delivery of new songs and need a platform for recommendations (eg more Ennio Morricone). Thanks for the new addition of chord sheets! Well done overall!

Engaging tutorials for all levels of piano proficiency. Huge selection of songs from different eras, and different styles. I have very elementary piano skills. I’ve been surprised and pleased with how much I have been able to learn with the step-by-step guidance from the tutor and the helpful tools (looping, speed control, visual pedalling reference etc).

I’ve been subscribed to HD Piano for years and they’ve played a huge part in my development. Customer service is excellent - Stephanie is always responsive and supportive My only recommendation is to re-introduce melody versions as well as accompaniment of their lessons as I’ve always found these worth the subscription and helps to create more interesting covers
