## What is GuitarBuddy Scales?

GuitarBuddy Scales helps you study guitar theory with fast practice games built around the fretboard.

Choose a key and scale, then train the skills that matter on a real instrument:

Fret Guess: identify the right note for a highlighted fretboard position
Ear Hunt: hear a note and find it on the fretboard
Scale Detective: listen to a short phrase and recognize the degree pattern

Designed for focused practice sessions:
- Full fretboard view in landscape
- Major, Natural Minor, Minor Pentatonic, and Major Pentatonic scales
- Session tracking with accuracy, streaks, score, and max score

Local history of study sessions saved on device
Clean visual layout built for quick repetition
GuitarBuddy Scales is made for players who want stronger fretboard recall, better scale fluency, and sharper musical perception.
