Derived from #1:

Since tonality works well in either portrait or landscape it would be great to improve this functionality slightly.

One easy fix would be to have a switch to lock into either mode so the layout does not flip around. It would be good to be able to switch to landscape when you have locked the screen orintation in the OS.

This is a suggestion I received by email:

Can it have high octaves at upper part of screen and lower octaves at lower part of screen instead?

I moved from 5 to 8 and noticed an increased audio lag on new device. Could it be software related issue, or rather hardware? I can provide more data if someone could guide me.

Hello, in Tonality the note B5 has a squeaking sound that plays during the note.

I'm not sure if it's a bug or if it was accidentally recorded when the sample was made.

The functionality when rotating is quite awkward. #4 suggests locking orientation, which is probably a simpler solution, but I have a different suggestion.

I believe there should be two different keyboard configurations, one for each orientation. For example, as a default, a portrait orientation might show two keyboards, each of one octave. Landscape orientation would have a different default, perhaps one long keyboard of two octaves.

the most usable android keyboard but highest octave must be at the top and the lowest octave must be at the bottom, as on the organs and all the instruments and the musical writing on the scores.

thank's for the good job.

thanks for this, very cool piano, as far as I know it's the only one on f-droid with the exception of a 9 years old barebones program

This is for making lower key can be at bottom.
Not always at top.

Now only
C2
C3.
Asking to ability make e.g.
C3
C2

The current F-Droid verision (1.2) does not respond when the "C" (key switcher) button is pressed. Play Store version (also 1.2) does work. Different compile options? The buttons on the bottom also display in a different order.

1. One easy fix would be to have a switch to lock into either mode so the layout does not flip around. It would be good to be able to switch to landscape when you have locked the screen orintation in the OS.
2. Another useful thing would be to keep separate keyboard layout configurations for these two modes. As it is now, if you have configured for landscape and turn to portrait, the spacing of the keys would most likely be too narrow and tall to be useful. The same thing applied the other way around of course, so it would be great if these two configurations were separate.

Bug report via email:

Hello,
Thanks for the work! Just that in natural minor scale, and harmonic minor scale, first interval is set as minor 2nd... For instance, C-Db.
It needs to be corrected.

This is a suggestion I received by email:

Some improvements i can suggest:
Each row of piano keys can be adjusted individually.
ie:
User set to tonality to have 3 rows of keys.
User can set each row to have 7 keys or 8 keys or 16 keys or even 24 keys.
User can choose octave of each row at granular level: row 1 can be octave 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or even 8, independent of row 2, which can also be of octave 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or even octave 8, so forth.

I love this app, thanks a lot for making it available!

For better usability, I think it would be useful to change the colors of scale. There are too many colors (white and black for non-selected, yellow/brown for selected...).

My preference would be to have something like grayed-out non-selected keys and highlighted selected keys (even same color would be ok, don't need to have black/white I'd think).

Given my preferences are subjective, having customizability could help

• Open Tonality
• Press Home or switch to another app
• Press the volume keys: an audio stream is open (multimedia icon)
• Remove Tonality from recent apps
• Press the volume keys: no open audio stream (ringtone icon)
