Unlike other monophonic Kalimba apps, advanced players can play up to 5 notes at the same time on iPlay Kalimba, which means you can even strum chords on it. It really is the PERFECT music instrument for the iPhone & iPod Touch! Go to iplay.wkode.com for demo videos, tutorials, and more.

The NO Sound Problem and Solution (http://iplay.wkode.com/kalimba/ for more info)
- This app uses the system sound engine (which on rare occasions behaves strangely...like no sound)
- Go into your devices sound settings page and set the volume slider to maximum and turn all the sound setting switches off and back on.
- That will refresh the sound engine
- You should get sound back on.
