Thanks to this app, I know my fretboard now. I know it very well. I really don’t care about the interface, touch sensitivity, or any other techno geek stuff. I’m a guitar player. This app has made me a better guitar player. I am thankful. I would like to see a future version of the app that includes triads, chord tones, and or caged system. But this current version has taught me well. I definitely got my money’s worth.
Solo not working

I wanted to update my review as the solo feature is now working plus the developer responded to my questions quickly. This app is excellent for learning the fretboard. I would rate it 5 stars if we weren't nickled and dimed to death for each new feature.Past comments: First, would have expected solo feature to be free, at least for those of us who have purchased your app already and supported your development. Second, the in app purchase does not work.

Not a very sophisticated interface
Simply great

Wish they would let you find all the triad notes and their octaves for barre chords and such instead of only the three for that specific triad, and allow you to limit the fretboard to a certain number even with the chord practice feature like with the customs note feature, but the fact remains that there isn't another app like this anywhere else. When work is slow or when I'm at home with my headphones I can train myself to learn the fretboard note locations. Nothing replaces practice, but my development would be nothing if it wasn't for this. Great app.
