A little confusing but not bad

Ive played music for yrs & already knew what the various note & rest types are, but I found this app to be a bit confusing because (on an iPhone 5S) it doesnt seem to mark the "correct" notes in time w the beat. Theres a lag between your tap/hold (in line w the song) and when it turns green, which throws things off a bit.
Also, the buttons seem a bit off/unresponsive at times so you dont get credit for ones you hit. The first blue level especially didnt register any taps the first time through even though the button looked like it was tapped. Worked 2nd time but I didnt do anything differently.

The main confusing point: how do you "release" for the rest? You just dont tap. This didnt work the first time though, so I thought I had to tap & release quickly (no). Seemed like later I got credit for just not tapping. It was a little weird. Maybe just me...

Overall its a fun learning tool. The cat graphics are kinda cool, but the few times theyre sitting on the staff theyre rather distracting. For a learning game they should probably stay out of the way & just be decoration.

Also liked that there was recognizable music mixed in w other fun tracks, and that the tempo speeds up as you progress through the levels.
