A genius idea!

This app must have been created by a genius. I went from not knowing how to play guitar to becoming extremely competent at playing guitar. Great interface and usability. The developer of this app is so smart that they could work for an AI company!

Why is there no conversion for left handed players? That would be helpful and smart

Very disappointing

It’s a hook app! They want $$ more than someone learning apparently.
You get a pentatonic scale, and some basic chords (yes, all the way up the neck!) but come on, really? $ 2.99?
I can look up anything on youtube for free man! Granted, I don’t, but still!
I do like the fact you implemented both landscape and portrait. It shows your creativity. It think it changed pitched when I turn the screen, and it could be responsive, as well!
I don’t know if it was hard, or if you can do this in your sleep, so thanks for, well, I’m not sure. lol
Honestly, as an intermediate player, it felt like I was the horse, and you were the driver of a carriage, dangling a carrot in front of me to get me to pull you around! Well, I got a carrot, for taking you all away across town, and you thought you got a round trip for that! Not this, Horsey! You’re hoofing it home buddy!
I was Mr. Ed in another lifetime.
Put some oats in your app!

Great app

Love this app

Love this

Easy composition tool, great reference item. Perfect price

Great app, but needs a lil work

This app is awesome for when you are sitting somewhere bored and want to look over scales and triads in a visual way. Has a lot of good info, but could also use more expositional stuff like for the different modes; it’s hard to learn about them from just seeing them laid out on the fretboard. Also the app should have a default setting for the scale you use the most so you don’t have to find it evertine you reopen the app. Lastly, the app should be able to be more fluid when you are pressing the different notes— there is an delay when you want to press a series of notes. Overall, really good resource for beginners like me.

Nice App

Been using the app for two weeks now. It’s very good app for practicing your scales. Easy to use and understand. Think I’ll upgrade. Much better than other apps I’ve tried for the purpose of finding appropriate scales. BOOM !!!! Thx

Better polished app than other guitar apps

Missed the ability to change the tuning of the guitar. Not everyone plays standard, and it would be great if you could change the tuning and have that reflect the mode.

Please add left hand feature

This is a great learning app especially if you’re right handed, but please consider updating the app to have a left handed mode for chords and scales, thank you. I highly recommend this app to anyone who plays or wants to play guitar

Bit laggy but ok

This ain’t a bad app but it does suffer but of lag while scrolling and the rotation needs some work.. this could work so well if instead of rotating the entire app why now just the note names and fret numbers in the same what that another popular app does. The background colour is a bit too vibrant so perhaps a user changeable preference would be a nice addition...

Deleteed

Don’t want to practice upside down . When i turn phone the way a guitar is played it automatically turns chords upside down. If it can be turned right , I don’t have an hr to spend trying to figure it out.

Great UI

Would like to see arpeggios too

Poor design, confusing.

Deleted the app less than 2 minutes after downloading. Bad UI and UX.

Response from developer

Hey Chris, I'm sorry to hear you had a less-than-ideal experience with the app UI and UX. Could you send us an email at leadguitarapp@gmail.com so we can try to address some of the problems? Thanks!

Problems

I cant switch between the modes of the scale it only lets me do the minor pentatonic

Response from developer

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear you're having problems. All the modes are available after upgrading to the Pro Version of the app. Could you send an email to leadguitarapp@gmail.com with more detail about the problems you're having? Thanks!

Useful for soloing

I use the app when I’m playing over a chord progression and want to hit certain notes on the changes. Works well. It would be nice if they added the CAGED positions too.

Response from developer

We're happy you're enjoying it! We're adding each o the individual CAGED positions soon for the scales view.

Solid reference app

I’ve been using this app for chord and scale reference and it’s worked great for that. Easy to use.

Response from developer

Awesome, we're glad you like it!

Nice interface

Nice simple interface for the app. It’s nice having the sounds for each of the notes.

Response from developer

Glad you like it, we're also updating the sounds to make them sound more realistic.
