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

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! “Clip-clop”, “clip-clop” in front of me making you pull the cart
