Outstanding App for Learning

I’ve tried learning this stuff many many years ago and it never stuck with me. But this app is really starting to connect a lot of the dots for me that were missing back when I tried to learn. I’m really excited with my progress so far and think I will actually understand it all this time.

Great for learning the notes, not just the shapes!

It was really nice to find an app that doesn't assume you read music or focus on a specific instrument. I play guitar and I wanted to find an app that took me away from my fretboard to really learn the notes in the scales and this has been great! The spaced repetition helps me continue to learn and reinforce the lessons I had yesterday.
