EarTrain is Palm software platform educational game for learning to hear and recognize musical notes and intervals. Using a train as a metaphor for the musical scale, each train car represents a pitch and the distance from the train's engine represents the interval. Recognizing musical intervals is a fundamental skill in music and leads to recognizing chords and scales.

Each level of EarTrain introduces new intervals or more intervals to choose from, becoming more difficult as the user's skill improves. Tapping on the correct train car increases the train's speed, while a wrong guess will waste fuel. A practice level is also included so that users can freely explore all of the intervals at their own pace before playing the game. EarTrain encompasses all musical intervals ranging from the minor second through the perfect octave.
