Minor pentatonic = R, b3, 4, 5, b7 (in relationships to the major scale) That would be root, MINOR third, fourth, fifth and MINOR second.
Major pentatonic = R, 2, 3, 5, 6
A minor pentatonic = A C D E G (A minor pentatonic comes from the C major scale)
A major pentatonic = A B C# E F# (A major pentatonic comes from on the A major scale)
C minor pentatonic = C Eb F G Bb (C minor pentatonic is based on the Eb major scale)
C major pentatonic = C D E G A (C major pentatonic is based on the C major scale)
Sorry, if I made it more confusing. I tried to include a couple of extra examples. I think the misunderstanding is that major and minor pentatonic would use the same formula, but that's incorrect.

Usually for on the go music production I'll use FL studio mobile to quickly get ideas down so that I can put them in my DAW later when I get home + in terms of music theory I used to use this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.okramuf.musikteori for theory help when I was doing my GCSE music - it might help you a bit! Have you also tried looking for some music theory textbooks? I have also personally found those helpful
Music theory helper by okram seems pretty good. Here's a link to it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.okramuf.musikteori
The UX is nice and seems to fit my criteria, although I wish it used note name wheel selection instead of a piano to select notes. Other then that it's pretty good
[Edit]I just downloaded sight reading trainer by Timothy dijamaco which actively listens to the notes you play as you read the on screen music. Going to give this a shot when I get home:

I do that sometimes. I just call the note out in my head. I think it helps a bit. I also use an Android app called "Music Theory Helper". It has a practice mode that shows you a note on either the treble or bass clef. You then have to click on the correct key. It was very handy way to practice identifying notes when you are not in front of a piano.

Perfect Ear 2: Quiz app with great UI. Found this one here on /r/musictheory.
