## What is Guitar Practice Journal?

Guitar Practice Journal is the all-in-one practice companion for guitarists who want to get better, faster.
  
PRACTICE TIMER
  Start a session with one tap. Track exactly how long you practice each day, week, and month. Your sessions are saved automatically so you can review your history anytime.

YOUTUBE INTEGRATION
  Load any YouTube video and practice along. Set A-B loop points to repeat tricky sections. Loops are saved for easy recall. Adjust playback speed in 1% increments. Scrub the timeline to jump anywhere in the song. Create drills from loops for structured, progressive training.

BUILT-IN METRONOME
  A full-featured metronome with tap tempo, time signatures, and accent patterns. Syncs with your practice timer so metronome time counts toward your daily goal.

AUDIO PLAYER
  Import audio files and practice with pitch shifting and tempo control. Set loop points to drill difficult passages at any speed without changing the key.

STRUCTURED DRILLS
  Browse a library of guitar drills covering technique, scales, chords, rhythm, theory, ear training, and improvisation. Schedule drills for each day, track your mastery level, and build consistent practice habits.

REPERTOIRE MANAGEMENT
  Keep a catalog of every song you're learning or have mastered. Track difficulty, status, and link to YouTube performances. Sort and filter to find what you need.

PROGRESS TRACKING
  Visualize your practice streaks with a GitHub-style heatmap. View detailed stats on practice time, session counts, and streaks. Set daily and weekly goals and watch your consistency grow.

ACHIEVEMENTS
  Earn badges as you hit practice milestones — from your first session to 365-day streaks and beyond.        

CLOUD SYNC
  Your data syncs across devices. Practice on your phone, review your stats on the web. Everything stays in  sync automatically.

WORKS WITH THE WEB APP
  Guitar Practice Journal also runs as a full web app at guitar-practice-journal.com. Your account works on both platforms seamlessly.
  Whether you're a beginner building a practice habit or an advanced player refining your repertoire, Guitar Practice Journal gives you the tools to practice smarter.
