Name That Tune! coming to the iPhone OS 3.0

Releases within days after OS 3.0 is released.

Utilizes your own iPod library for the game.

100% free. Look for it in the Music category.

Very cool. This game on my old iPod was instrumental in helping me rediscover old favourites.

The game is now OUT. It's called "Name That Tune!"

First of all, it's FREE. There are many other games called "Music Quiz" and "Music IQ", etc out on the store already but they are NOT free. Do not buy them. All of the features in those games will be in Name That Tune!

Secondly, it's the first version. If there are ANY features you'd like to eventually see, please add a review so I can include those. I'll be putting out new updates with new features once every two weeks. The next update will have MANY new features (read the app description for details).

Again, don't buy any music quiz game, get Name That Tune! It's FREE!

I think it's great you're offering it for free, but I feel it's still behind the curve compared to the versions you pay for.

First of all, many of my songs that are "featuring" another artist have their names in the song title as opposed to the artist. It led to many "incorrect answers" on my behalf.

Second, multiple choice is definitely the most convenient way to go. It's just laborious for the user to have to input the song title as opposed to selecting an option.

Suggestions for future features would be: multiple choice game, name the artist, name the album, guess the lyrics (this would probably be hard to code, but a neat feature to have).

Otherwise, I really like the UI and I think you have an ambitious project that (if it remains free) should be a competitor in the "Music Quiz" genre. Nice app!
