I think this might have been the best honest review I have ever seen, I love how you "forgot" you were a professional teacher and did everything exactly how they asked - even if having a constructive suggestion! I have not tried Flowkey yet, and now seriously considering it after watching your video (as well as your great resources on your website!)
Heyy thank you for your comment!! So glad you found it useful 😁
Hey . I tried flowkey first when I got my first keyboard . I didn’t understand the notes and what fingers to play them with . I was so confused and got stuck .
Simply piano adds this to playing.
I think I will learn from simply piano an then go to flowkey after some time .
Thought I add this for other people to read .
Thankyou for your review lovely 🙂
I've just started playing with flowkey as well, it does put the number to play the keys above the notes at least for the pieces I've played so far.
I’m a piano teacher. My son now uses simply piano along with many other resources to learn piano. It obviously has its flaws, (it fosters poor technique from the get go), but it’s really fun. And music should be fun.
Thank you so much for this video. I was debating between simply piano and flow key. Because of subscription deal, I am going to give Flowkey a shot.
Bravo great review- there is no substitute for a good teacher.
I have zero experience with simply piano and started with flowkey. Simply pianos feels like something for a kid whereas flowkey is more for the older teens and up. I chose flowkey over simply piano because of it and didn’t need a backing track. Also in my pursuit of self study I picked up the Faber books. Picking up some music theory - I’m just learning to learn and flowkey and apps like this have given many people access to lessons that otherwise may not be attainable in a fairly inexpensive option to try. It’s like how digital photography has given rise to more amateur photographers without having to continuously purchase film and knowing results only after you’ve developed them.
Hi mariya! 👋 happy new year!
Hello 😊👋 Happy New Year to you as well!! I’m glad we’re on the same page, Simply Piano does seem a little on the oversimplified side. Faber books are great, have you tried Barbara Wharram’s Elementary Rudiments of Music book? It gets quite advanced and drills all the basics 💪
@@WithMariya I will check them out one is the challenges of self study is choosing what learning materials to choose and there so much out there! Thanks mariya!
@@Toogoodtobetrue458 I totally get that! Let me know if there’s anything you’d like suggestions for 🤗
@@Toogoodtobetrue458 Hi where u from!?
Thank you - this review was very helpful. I'm 65 and new to piano; I could not make up my mind which app is best for me. Think I will go with Flowkey. Thanks again.
ME too ... and just started with flowkey with help of this little review.
Tell me how your progressing ...
Being retired there is potentially more time .. : )
I wish you good luck & patience to learn !
64 here. Just finished 2 free months of Scoove (came with my Piano) but will be moving to Flowkey shortly.
Very interesting analysis about players like ME! LOL, I don’t have time to learn piano properly with a teacher because of my health, but I’m very interested in (re)starting with a tool like Flowkey. I did have three years of lessons as a grade schooler, but they are not the fondest of memories. 😂
Ohhh childhood lessons can be so hit or miss! 🥲 Glad you enjoyed the video, thank you for watching!!
I created a YT login just to follow you. Thank you for your review and knowledge. I played organ and sax as a youngster (decades ago) and have recently bought a keyboard to relearn and enjoy music again. Folks like you educate and inspire me to revive my musical past. I look forward to the enjoyment that playing an instrument provides and thank you for sharing your expertise. Great video Review!
I think that the biggest strength of flowkey is its very good selection of classical music that does not have simplified score. The selection of some standards (even some used in jazz) is not bad either. Thank you.
Oh that’s great to hear! Having good quality music to learn is so important… Thank you for watching!!
I'm glad you mentioned the Alexander Technique. I studied that and it changed my piano playing for the better.
So awesome to hear! It’s still a little more niche than I would like, but I’m so happy we’re on the same wavelength 💪✨
Me too! I find the conventional technique is restrictive and can lead to injuries.
Skip first 3 min, not about flowkey but other software, why.
Great review. Having just wasted time on a review that did NOT do a walk through, this was refreshing. I especially appreciate your professional suggestions interspersed within the review. I am strongly considering trying this out. Have you reviewed others? Never mind - I'll subscribe and look for myself! Thanks again. 🙂
play at x1.25 speed on youtube gear icon settings, welcome, great video btw
I was going to sign up to Flowkey partly because of your review, (thanks for that) then I found Piano Marvel - now I can’t decide witch one is best for me - can you do an honest review of Piano Marvel?
How come when you did the simply piano review, you went out of your way to try to "break" every lesson (singing the notes, adding notes, ignoring rhythm) and were perpetually annoyed that the app didn't pick up on any of this, but here, you're approaching each lesson the way any actual student would, and you seem to like it? It's impossible to assess your comparison of the two apps when your approach to one of them was so disengaged and antagonistic.
I must say I do agree. I have used both apps. And began piano lessons in high-school. Recently i have began to play again and turned to apps. I began with flowkey, and it became strictly annoying to me. It just kept force feeding terrible children's tunes and even would not pick up my notes at times. As for simply piano, so far I have prefered the experience. I also have not noticed any of her complaints on simply piano. Even the app looks completely different and acts different from what was shown in her video. If you hit incorrect notes, it shows as wrong and will make you restart your lesson. I'm not sure what the difference is or if maybe it was a fake form of simply piano she had.
@@TheGreasemonkey220 I know the android and iOS versions of simply piano are very different. That might be why?
@johndoe-yw7eb That may be, or hers could be an older version. Because I haven't had the issues of the notes not reading correctly, or being able to sing the notes. I actually tried it after seeing this video, just to see.
Its not worth it. So many songs are vanishing lately which I started learning and when you ask the support they just say we don't have the license anymore.
Hi Mariya, can you guide on what books or resources one should use to learn keyboard if they cannot access classes physically anywhere near there home.
Really great review 👍🏽
How do you record yourself and have the video of the piano in the upper left corner at the same time?
Thank you for your honest review .
Thank you
Comparison between Flowkey and Yousician please
Flowkey has a way better sound detection, yousician always miss notes
@@AhmadAmar9what about the metronome?
Just another faq, please... What is that where you are seeing flowkey? is a tablet or a laptop? And thanks for the video.
Hey, thanks so much for watching! It’s just an iPad Pro 😊
@@WithMariya Thanks.
Excellent content. Appreciate the honest opinion!
Thank you so much for watching!!
Nice review. And advice as well 😉
I'm not bashing you, but did FlowKey sponsor this? I only ask because I've seen (a lot) of other reviews where they said up front they were sponsored. Thanks for sharing either way 👍
Nope not sponsored at all! Honest first impression video ☺️ And it’s not bashing don’t worry 🙃
@@WithMariya Good to know. Thanks!
Hello Miss Maria,
I have not commented on your videos in a while(although I have been watching). I know that you are probably busy but I was wondering if you could do a little video review of the following hybrid digital pianos if you are near a piano store: Kawai NV10, Casio Gp510 and the Yamaha N1 & N2 in order of your most favorite to least. I am hoping to buy one of these in the next few months (I have completed my challenge of not upgrading to a new piano until I had learnt 10 pieces( I have learnt 11 lol). I learnt them on a old Yamaha clavinova clp311.
I hope you had a pleasant Christmas and will have a happy New year.
Regards
Umar(Sheffield, England)
Hi Umar, good to see you on the channel again! The piano store reviews are a little harder than regular videos, so I don’t know when I’ll get a chance to start on those, but thank you for the suggestion! It will definitely be on the list 👍
so which one is better? none?
None… but flowkey 🤣
Very helpful I am an adult beginner though I have played guitar for over 30 years and understand music theory. So is flowkey ifor me or do you recommend something else?
I would say flowkey would be a good place to start, then look around and see if you can find a good private teacher! Even if it's monthly lessons, checking in with a real human regularly can be so beneficial for motivation and progress!
Ita pretty cool but the songs choice to learn isn't so great
You should do a review of Playground Sessions.
Do we have to pay for this app to learn piano??
Heyy just like other apps it comes with a 7 day free trial and after that it’s paid 🤗
@@WithMariya 😔my parents won't support me but learning music is my dream... Do u know anything that can help me learning music for free by my own😢
@@dreamgirl6406 online tutorials on CZcams! If you have the discipline and determination, you can learn anything yourself ❤️ Then later on, if you have your own earnings to bring towards lessons, you can decide to do that.
@@WithMariya thanks for your support..!! 💜💜
Please post more helpful videos .
