The falling notes app,
a virtual piano with 3D hands.

When you open the app, there are 2 ways in: Learn piano (lessons, exercises, challenges) or Play & explore (songs with falling notes, your MIDI files, free play). One question sets your level (I’m just starting, some basics, I already play), and you can change it in Profile. Everything stays accessible whichever you choose: you can switch between the two at any time.

Each lesson shows the staff and a small on-screen keyboard. You play one note after another, with the fingering and a gauge that shows how long to hold each note, then a short quiz checks what you learned. A “3, 2, 1” count-in starts every passage in time, and a missed step comes back a little slower: a lesson never blocks you. The lessons go from the very first note to your first pieces, on screen, on a MIDI keyboard or on your real piano through the microphone. See the full course.

Yes. The course starts at middle C and moves forward with no prior theory, at your own pace, with short lessons. Wait mode pauses until you play the right note, and you can replay any lesson as often as you like.

Every day, a short excerpt to play at 3 difficulty levels, with 3 attempts and a score based on accuracy. A weekly challenge is worth more points. Your points place you each week in a practice league, from Bronze to Diamond, against simulated opponents.

Yes, that’s the core of it. Open any .mid or .midi file and Pianovera turns it into falling notes on a virtual piano keyboard, left hand in blue, right hand in green.

No. Lessons, challenges and the free session also work on the on-screen keyboard, with the mouse or a finger. A MIDI keyboard gives you the real touch: Pianovera then follows the notes you play, read-only, and never sends anything back to your instrument. And if you have a real piano, the microphone recognises your notes in the lessons, in Note reading and in the pieces (the “Wait” and “Learn in sections” modes): the sound is analysed on the device, never recorded or sent.

Yes, on Windows and on Android, with no time limit and no ads. The free version includes 30 pieces (on Android, 20 in full and 10 in a simplified version), the first 10 lessons then one more per token earned in the daily challenge, the challenges, the 3D hands and the Natural studio look. Other pieces and your MIDI files play as 40-second excerpts, and a Pianovera watermark shows on screen.

No: there is no trial, and the free version has no time limit. You move to Premium only if you want to, monthly, yearly or for life: it opens all 579 pieces in full, every lesson, every look and stage mode, and unlimited videos, with the 3D hands and no watermark. Trials already started keep their original duration, and your progress is preserved.

Playback, sound, lessons and export run locally. Internet is needed to activate your purchase, check for updates or use the public piano map. On Windows, a monthly or yearly Premium subscription needs a connection at least every 7 days. No account is required; the optional Google sign-in restores your Premium on Windows and on Android.

Yes: a virtual piano keyboard with 13 to 88 keys on screen, the sound of a sampled piano, and any MIDI file played with falling notes. You play along on your MIDI keyboard, on the screen, or simply watch and listen. It’s a learning app and a piano MIDI player, not a browser toy. The virtual piano in detail.

Yes, on Windows and on Android, even in the free version. In exported videos, the 3D hands are reserved for Premium.

Every piece in the library comes in three versions computed from the original score; a piece that is already very simple keeps only its original version. Intermediate: the whole piece, but passages too fast for one hand are reduced to eighth notes and chords limited to two notes on strong beats. Beginner: one step below, the melody intact but one note at a time, with the left hand reduced to the beats. Original: the piece as written. You pick the version when you start a piece; passing a version at 85% suggests the next one.

Yes. The Sheet music view shows a real score page (brace, clefs, key signature, bars, rests, two or three lines) with a moving cursor and page turns, or two mixed views: a single page line, or a scrolling band, with falling notes below. It works in every mode: in Wait mode, the score stops on the expected note.

Yes, on Windows and on Android. The Studio exports an MP4 in 16:9 or vertical for Shorts; on Windows, with your background, your logo and your title card, up to 4K. The free version allows 2 videos a week, 1 minute at most, without the hands and with the Pianovera watermark. With Premium: unlimited videos, with the 3D hands and no watermark.

On Windows: English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese and Italian, lessons included. On Android: English, French, Spanish and German for now; Portuguese and Italian come with the next update. You change the language in Settings.

The Windows build is here, and so is the Android app. A macOS version is in the works.
