Release Notes

1.1.0

November 2026

Study and Improv join Noodle, one tap apart at the top of the screen.

  • Study. Every major and minor key, with its chords to look up and how to play them, from root position to the rootless voicings jazz pianists use, on the staff and keyboard.
  • Exercises. Scales, chords, inversions, progressions and voicings in every key, checked as you play. Stuck on a chord? Tap Show me to see the keys and play it over until it sticks.
  • Improv. Pick a key, a progression and a tempo, and solo over a click and a chord chart that moves in time. Afterwards, see where your notes landed.
  • Noodle Plus. Exercises in all 24 keys, every voicing drill, and all of Improv with the full debrief, monthly, yearly or for life. Every key's chords stay free to look up, and the exercises and Improv are free to try in C major and A minor.

1.0.0

October 2026

Noodle's first release. Plug in a MIDI keyboard and play.

  • Every chord, named as you play. With its Roman numeral in your key, and the other ways it could be read.
  • Where next. A few routes onward from every chord: home, up to the IV, darker, more colourful.
  • Follow along. Play the first chord of a route and Noodle lights up the rest.
  • Famous moves. Noodle spots well-known progressions like the ii–V–I and the twelve-bar blues, and walks you through them.
  • Key and circle of fifths. See the key you're in, and the chords around it.
  • Notes that fit. The keyboard shows which notes land, add colour, go bluesy or clash over each chord.
  • USB and Bluetooth MIDI on iPad and Mac, with light and dark mode.
