Fret Tester is a fretboard trainer that will teach you to read music on the guitar, mandolin, or bass. From learning the names of the notes on the fretboard to reading standard music notation, Fret ...
This app is very good It s worth buying if someone wants to work on this critical skill I would probably rate this 4 5 5 I have some recommendations to improve this app which would make it a joy to use Allow chromatic notes to be practiced exclusively and make the note bar reflect that by turning the notes into chromatic ones by default so the chromatic button is not necessary to press Allow simultaneous natural chromatic note practice which already exists but allow two separate note bars stacked on top of each other for both kinds of notes This way the chromatic button is not necessary This will improve reaction time since only one button press will be necessary for either note type instead of two buttons pressed with the added chromatic button Allow any notes to be specifically selected in the options menu through tapping them so users can choose any visual pattern to practice For instance I could select only specific notes in a diagonal line This challenges mental recall by forcing the brain to recognize the notes within a new pattern Add 7 and 8 string guitar layouts because extended range instruments are used a lot nowadays Quite well made Could use slight additions SurfingSerpent
I enjoy this app but if the developer does not update it it will be incompatible with future versions of iOS as per the warning I get every time I open it Needs update Cheen Bean
This does not give you the notes that are needed to give the answer Notes #1BJJ
Basic but fruitful practice Fantastic App Gotta get it Spiritfilled Epic release
It totally helps me recognize notes on the fretboard and it was well worth the money I know it works because I know I m acknowledging where I am on the FB when I play the guitar The learning comes out in my playing when I least expect it but I know it came from using this app Great for quick downtime learning while waiting in line waiting to pick up my kid whatever Easy to grab for a minute or waste a half hour with Could it be better Maybe but it doesn t need to be It s very useful as is Those I ve recommended it to also find it quite useful Fretboard knowledge It s necessary and knowledge is power This makes learning the fretboard and notes on a staff easy and I accept and appreciate the challenge I m only going to get faster and effortless recognition by using it more and I m stoked on that All my frets are green and I m motivated to get to black master Well done Love it Stiinky
reading so far very helpful Bought another app on the same subject but this one is far much better than the rest Best app on fretboard mr Upgrade
The G icon does not show up on iPad Pro 9 7 Since the answer to the second question is G you can use this app for less than one minute then you can not progress I want a refund Does not work jflash1059
Works well If you run into a problem with cutoff buttons try restarting your device Worked for me Does the Job RonCam725
Minus one star because it hasn t been updated for newer screen sizes I agree with another reviewer who says the note should be played before This really seems to work klwdallas
I can t play this game because it is too big for my iPad Air 2 It cuts off the G and G which are on the right side of the screen I can t access them Doesn t work Surfzone1964
I got this to work on my basic note recognition on the fretboard and to practice sight reading on a staff I was pleased to see it also can show you notes on the staff and then test how well you can find the corresponding notes on the fretboard Plus it has a side benefit This app has helped me to practice increasing my attention span a useful counterpoint to the short spurts of attention that social media and instant messaging apps tend to cater to All in all a great app Educational for sight reading and helps with overall concentration Ashiko West
I love this app but for the love of everything in this world PLEASE UPDATE IT Great app but PLEASE UPDATE StellaLatro
Speeds learning notes on neck and page Excellent Circaeng
I ve purchased a lot of guitar apps that I end up either never using or being underwhelmed by This is not one of those apps I have been playing guitar for 6 months and I am pretty familiar with the notes in the first position However there s a big difference between knowing notes in order vs instant recall For fluid playing you need instant recall and this app is perfect for that After a few weeks of this app I think my speed will be much better This is especially true since I use standard notation more often than TAB Highly recommended Fantastic Xarethis
The only app I could find with notation There s plenty of fretboard apps but they only use the note names A great way to get started on reading music as a guitarist Just what I needed Munchkinblumpkin
After 20 years of not knowing the full fretboard now I do Do a little section at a time It adds up Totally works brownerthanu
In the Name Note game I would like to hear the note when it appears not when I select it This visual auditory reinforcement would be a big help As it is now when you tap the note the dot immediately changes and the note sounds so I m making an incorrect association between the sound of the note and the visual indication In the Find Note game I would like the option of seeing no dots on the fretboard so that I am forced to find the note without any help The app could use a bit of updating as others have suggested Good app two suggestions atom_ant
I have tried just about all the fretboard trainers on the App Store and this is by far the best and one of the cheaper paid ones It has not been updated for awhile and could use some new features and maybe a make over but this is a solid app Don t waste your money just get this one Also developer please revisit and give it some new features such as goals more than four speeds maybe actual display real or something more creative A make over would be nice Again though this is a five star app Old and updated but still the best Kardjunkie
Fret tester is the best app ever Im a GIT graduate and man i wish i would ve had it a long time ago Best app ever Nickwrath24
This app is awesome for fretboard memorization It hasn t been updated in a while but works great on my ipad and iphone 5 using ios7 Awesome Learning Tool OLD App but still works on IOS 7 1 Steve Savage 3901
Fantastic app Fantastic app RodrigoQuadrado
I am fairly terrible at memorization and my playing has reached the point that I can t progress without knowing the notes of the fretboard I tried innumerable exercises on my own but nothing worked I m not the whole way through the fretboard yet but this app is actually working for me I m very excited about the possibilities that will be opened up once I have the fretboard memorized Being able to study small sections made all the difference 5 stars Wonderful JRPapollo
I am looking forward to using this app to get really familiar with the guitar fretboard Exactly what I was looking for kevinlaff
Excellent guitar fretboard quiz app Worth the money Great app DixieDoodles
This is an excellent app the only thing I would change is to maybe add a scale arpeggio trainer and to change the fact that in some modes you can only study four frets at a time This is fine for guitar and bass but mandolins use diatonic fingering and we play all the notes up to the seventh fret in first position Fix the positioning for mandolin and add more things to study and this app would be perfect Almost Perfect SophieMcCall
I ve used this for a few days and can already see the results I highly recommend it Awesome app Gil522
I have been trying to learn the notes on the guitar fretboard for some time without success This app is amazing I thought I could read music as well Didn t realize I was limited to the range of the trumpet The guitar has notes on the staff that I was unfamiliar with This app is helping me with my sight reading There are so many options you can learn to read music in bass and treble clef as well as the notes on the fretboard Empower yourself with this amazing app Highly recommend Best App IYfiyf
This is an awesome app and is exactly what I was looking for It does an awesome job of helping you memorize the fretboard The only thing I can think of to make it better is to include the option to use a specific key To me that would be much better than including sharps or flats Excellent training tool Stupiduniquename
This is by far the best app of its kind And the price is fair for the actual value Avoids ALMOST all the issues with similar apps which have problems with speed string fret selection options messy interfaces etc But PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE pester the dev to make the guitar neck wider AT LEAST as an option It s FAR too easy to hit wrong notes due to the strings being so tightly spaced especially for thick fingers Granted they LOOK great tight but I can t get accurate stats on what I actually know because of being off by a hair now and then due to the interface Especially frustrating because the point should be learning the GUITAR fretboard rather than establishing a separate skill on the iPad Again it should be an option for slender fingers or lower speeds it may be fine as is for some Best available app one real problem KD Jones
One of the best music learning apps I ve found for the guitar Great App Mmmkay?
After 2 weeks of working in this app daily my sight reading has improved dramatically Looking at the fret board and seeing notes has also helped with chord theory Thank you Ingenious UI Davemhdavemh
I wanted something to help me learn which notes on the neck are what This app is exactly what I had in mind I tried some free trials of similar apps this is way better Easy to see easy to use totally customizable to isolate a few strings or frets Also has a mode to go from sheet music to guitar neck great for practicing sight reading Too bad there s no free trial to show how much better it is than the other clunky similar programs out there Perfect Magnified apples
I am using this application to help me learn to play the mandolin I have found it very useful and have been able to learn positions for notes quickly Works tvpayne
Program is a great learning tool found this was the best implemented learning tool for the familiarizing myself with the fretboard Keep it up Great learning tool sangbini
What a great system Before buying this app I was struggling to learn 7th position for about a week I just bought this app and after just 30 minutes I have it nailed Thank you Amazing Ralfewiz
I ve been looking for an app like this for years If I could give 10 stars I would You won t be disappointed Absolutely Perfect Roger Corley
This app has been really helpful in learning to read notes and to tanager that to the fret board definitely with it Great app AK99835
I dont normally write reviews but some apps are so useful and fun to use I thought I should tip my hat I ve played a wind instrument pretty much all my life and now that I m retired I wanted to learn guitar Fret Tester is a great way to learn the guitar or other string instrument fretboard I wanted to transfer my knowledge that I have in music into another instrument and guitar is a wonderful but complicated instrument I can t tell you how many guitarist really good players don t know the notes on the neck can t read music etc it must be frustrating at times to be semi literate Fret Tester will really help in this department and the designers created a great game like environment You won t even know your learning I have a version on my iPod touch and iPad and find that whenever I m waiting or have time to kill I m honing my skills Get it it s really a great little app Very useful ivgm
I would love if you could make an option where you could choose all the frets of one note Meaning it asks Where are all the C s Then you choose all the different frets that are C s That would make a great addition to an already great app Best guitar note teaching app on the App Store Love it Thank you Great But Pianoman737
I could not be more thrilled with this app I ve been playing guitar for awhile but never found a good way to memorize the fretboard My brain just couldn t process it quickly and I was frustrated I played with Fret Tester every day for a couple of weeks and I had the first five frets memorized without strain It was fun to play The app is brilliantly simple and effective in design I like the way it tends to frequently repeat notes you ve gotten wrong a couple of times so you learn them Thank you Fret Tester Now I can rock on This app helped me learn the fretboard in no time Corkulous
To me this app is a necessity to help me through the beginning stages of learning my bass guitar It has 4 game modes to choose from all which interchangeably help reinforce your new found knowledge I ve been using this app for a few days and can already recite all of the natural notes up to the 7th fret Very useful in learning how to read music too As far as not being able to scroll up and down the guitar I really don t think it s that big of a problem because after the 12th fret all of the notes simply repeat themselves at least on the bass I don t know if it holds true on the guitar 5 stars all the way And Remember is not how long you ve been playing is how much time you ve invested Repetition is key figster979
The fret testing design and layout is great and very beneficial but the notes you hear that correspond to what should be the fretted note is not always correct Could be better Clucky
This app has dramatically accelerated the speed at which I m learning guitar I spend 30 minutes every day working on the notation exercises which helps me learn sight reading of music and the fretboard simultaneously Brilliant the_apostate
It should be able to also test us string by string at least up to the 12th fret and not only by positions Should also be able to scroll up and down left to right the fretboard during play Pretty good could be better ZeKoopaTroopa

One of the best music learning apps Ive found for the guitar Great App
I am looking for feedback not test It would be nice if screen showed fret lines of music and notes all together as an option That way I might learn More teaching less testing
The fret testing design and layout is great and very beneficial but the notes you hear that correspond to what should be the fretted note is not always correct Could be better
This app is great for learning music theory basics for a stringed instrument I am learning the fretboard much faster than I was before Excellent
Great app Very simple to use Worth the money Great
This might be weird but I would like to decide which way the fret board lays I would like to flip it over in a direction that is more comfy for me Cool but
Almost became muscle memory trying to beat the clock Excellent Helped me learn very fast

This is just what I neededgood games for learning good stats for lessons good pricekeep it up Great app
Speeds learning notes on neck and page Excellent
Exactly what I was looking for Will be recommending for my students and keeping sharp myself I like how you can set limits on fret range and included strings Great for concentrating on a single string a position an isolated area or just the whole fretboard PlayerTeacher
This app has everything you could want and more this was easily one of the best 2 investments Ive ever made Highly recommend Amazing

This app is fantastic for any music student out there Im having a hard time trying to memorize all those guitar notes and this is helping me a lot Ill give it a 4 star and 2 suggestions A perspective and more realistic view of the fretboard would be nice Some tips and tricks are welcome ie this note can be played here and there Great tool

The only app youll need for learning the notes on the guitar neck bass neck etc and the notes on the treble and bass clef and which notes on the guitar bass correspond with which notes on the treble and bass clef I stumbled along trying to learn to read music for years and never got very good results for my efforts but this app makes it a piece of cake and fun to boot Excellent

This app has been great at helping me immediately learn bass notes on the fret board and sheet music The learning options that are provided are well thought out too Terrific teaching tool
Can you add a six string bass Awesome
Program is a great learning tool found this was the best implemented learning tool for the familiarizing myself with the fretboard Keep it up Great learning tool
