Slowly add more content like a simple chromatic tuner and maybe chords according to the chosen scale while remaing simple and not so memory hogging. That would make this app amazing. 5/5 ### 5/5 — New thinking *2020-12-14* Never thought about looking at my fret board like this. It has given me a new way of thinking about things. ### 5/5 — 🤯 *2020-06-12* How has there not been an app like this before??? So clean and user friendly ### 5/5 — Great Guitar Scales Reference! *2020-06-12* I love it. Here is a straightforward learning app and reference for all guitarists. A myriad of guitar scales are displayed on an interactive fretboard with virtual strings you can pluck to see how they sound. In addition to the ability to show or hide fretboard and note labels, it lets you keep track your favorites by drilling down to a detail view from the ‘all modes’ reference. And there is a very useful option to prevent device sleep interruptions as you play your guitar alongside it. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Best guitar scale app I’ve found *2020-06-12* Clean design and delightfully minimal, no ads at the moment. Great app 5 stars. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 2/5 — Error with how things are displayed *2023-12-06* I love that it is free, how customizable it is, and easy to use. But things aren’t lining up correctly with the fret board background and the scales ### 2/5 — The audio keeps quitting. *2021-09-18* I have problems with the audio, there is sound at first and then not. And they don’t care. ### 4/5 — Dark Mode *2026-01-18* Wondering if a Dark Mode option is possibly in the works? **Developer response:** Dark mode should work. I use it everyday! I'm guessing you mean you want an independent dark mode button in the app that's separate from iOS? I will make sure to prioritize that. If that's not what you meant, feel free to use the in-app support form to provide some details (like device type and OS version) and I think we'll be able to get you sorted out. Thank you for the review and for reaching out! ### 4/5 — Very nice *2025-10-19* Would get 5 stars for alternate tuning option ### 4/5 — Left handed *2024-12-19, version 1.4* Add a left hand view of chords and scales for players like me. ### 4/5 — Dorian Mode *2022-05-14* I LOVE this app and how easy it is on the eyes. I am however confused about the displayed Dorian Mode as it’s different than anywhere else I’ve seen that shape. ### 4/5 — I would pay for more *2022-04-03* App is appealing to the eyes. I would gladly pay .99 to have the intervals instead of the notes as a option ### 5/5 — Excellent *2025-06-18* This is perfect. I had limited knowledge of music theory and this app has helped me expand that knowledge tremendously just by experimenting with different mode variants. **Developer response:** Hey thank you for the kind words! Feel free to use the in-app contact form to submit any notes on features you may want or anything that can be improved. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2025-01-24* This app has a very nice layout and there are a lot of great features, it’s just what I was looking for! ### 5/5 — The best tool for memorizing guitar scales *2024-11-09* I love how clean and organized it is, making it easy to see the scale shapes visually. The only improvement I'd love to see is displaying the intervals for each note. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The App You Are Looking 4!!!! *2024-08-11* hello. first off, well done. you sir have a beautiful soul and i thank the universe for igniting the burning ember that is your soul. For it wasn’t you this world.. would likely lie in shambles, and i wouldn’t be here to thank you. Thank you 🫡 i shal smk i 🥣 i. yir honor good sir ### 5/5 — Simple & Clean *2024-04-05* Very simple, but effective interface with some subtle animation sprinkled in. Appreciate you giving this great little tool away for free Zach! Would love to be able to zoom out slightly so the whole fretboard could fit onto my screen in the near future. And to create duplicates of favorited chords to organize them into groups. ### 5/5 — Wowza *2023-09-30* Fantastic and minimalist! All you really need. My only wish/qualm is that there isn’t a bass mode. I know you can garner the same info from the fretboard, but it’s much easier visually when the B and E string aren’t there to draw attention. Dats my two cents. Cheers! ### 5/5 — Excellent *2023-03-25* After downloading 10+ scale apps, I’ve found that this is the only one to get it right. Simple, easy to use, comprehensive, can turn your phone for profile and landscape modes, plus it’s free! ### 5/5 — Beautiful Minimalism *2023-02-17* Love love love this app! Simple minimalist menus and design make this app as fun to look at as it is useful! Thanks! ### 5/5 — Love it *2022-12-07* This is a fast way to zip through various scales, away from the guitar, and see which notes are changing as you change roots or modes. Works very well and it is enjoyable to use. Thanks for putting this together! ### 5/5 — Best scale app!! *2022-09-20* Simplicity at its best— shows patterns very clearly— this is the best presentation of this material in the App Store!! Only one request — please consider functionality for other instruments extended range instruments Like 7 string guitar, 5 string bass, mandolin, etc --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
