User reviews

Exactly what I need

Super helpful and very easy to use app-glad to have it when I don’t have my hands on the guitar. More useful than scrolling through Facebook for sure!

Just What I Was Looking For

Good app. Just what I was looking for to learn chord values and memorize arpeggios. Sure it would be nice if it quizzed you so you could better track your progress but I am happy with it for the price.

Good Review

This AP is a very good review of music theory. It does exactly as advertised. If you want an inter active quiz game, go somewhere else. This is totally an excellent tool for learning and testing yourself about these topics.
