Piano lesson app recommendations?

Any recommendations for Piano lesson apps? 

 

Main ones seem to be:

 

.....both have free trials/30 day money back so I'll probably sign up for both,  it is a bit of a faff giving all payment details and then needing to remember to cancel though - especially if there are better alternatives.

 

Or, any recommendations for online lessons or books that are worth getting? I have a Hal Leonard Piano Method one. I did have lessons when I was a kid and have continued to play occasionally so I can play and can read music to a basic level.

 

(I know actual face-to-face lessons are ideal, much more ££ though, and  I'd rather just have lessons I can dip into when there are quiet 'work from home' days rather than having scheduled appointments).

This is what I've used as a basis for my face to face piano lessons in a music academy:

There are 3 levels and all the lessons can be found here in video (looks like the guy wants to go through the keyboard, but the content is there):

I went for the free trial of Flowkey.  It is clever how it can use your phone mic to hear if you have played the notes correctly and it'll only move on with the song when you have played them - I'm not sure that is great for learning good timing though, it is the main selling point but I turned the feature off. Without using that there is a lot of similar content on youtube for free so I won't be subscribing for the €10pm app.  

 

I've gone with old trusty: Hal Leonard Piano method.
