Flowkey offers a self-paced alternative to traditional piano lessons through an app that can listen as users play. The one-year Classic Plan is currently listed at $29.97, compared with its regular price of $189, according to the provided deal information.
The app uses a device’s microphone or a MIDI connection to identify notes and flag mistakes during practice. Its Wait Mode pauses a lesson until the correct keys are played, while slow motion, looping and one-hand practice are designed to make difficult passages easier to manage.
Lessons combine videos from professional pianists with synchronized sheet music, allowing users to follow both the fingering and the notes. The Classic Plan includes more than 1,000 classical and public-domain songs by composers including Bach, Chopin, Beethoven and Debussy.
The pieces are arranged across Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced and Pro levels. The subscription also includes courses covering sheet-music reading, chords, rhythm and playing with both hands. Users returning to piano after childhood lessons can begin at a higher level and use the fundamentals courses to refresh their skills.
One subscription works on unlimited devices, including Windows PCs, Macs, Chromebooks, iPhones, iPads and Android phones. Mobile devices require iOS 15.6 or later or Android 11 and later. A digital piano or keyboard is required to play along, and the lessons are available in 11 languages.
The $29.97 price for a one-year flowkey Classic Plan subscription is listed as available until Nov. 1 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
