What Artists Are Saying
“Learning the notes on the fretboard is key to any guitarist’s development, and Fretuoso is a neat way to get that info burned into your brain without having to carry a guitar everywhere you go. Pretty cool!”
— Bryan Beller (Dethklok, Steve Vai, Mike Keneally)
“This is one of the best apps I’ve seen in a while. It’s simple, fun, and educational. Very useful for guitar players, as many tend to play by ear and not focus on knowing the fretboard.”
— Rick Musallam (Mike Keneally, Gryphon Labs)

Fretuoso Reviews
Best ear training app
Amazing tool. Would recommend above all
Good app
Good ap
Great app
Just what I was looking for.
Fretboard
This is a good training app.
Have to reset every time
Have to restore my purchases every time I open app. Also have to change settings back as they reset every time. Would have got five stars but this problem is very annoying.
Id rate less if only it were possible!
This is an Ad app. Nothing more.
The ads are over the top
This would probably be a good app if it didn't pop ads every 3 seconds which automatically put you into App Store, the BS with the ads makes me give it a 1, fix the ad problem and tone it down a bit (don't have ads which auto direct you to a purchase for a game every 3 seconds) I may redo my review. As for now, deleted and uninstalled, I'll go play around with some other apps.
Unplayable
The premise is great, but the constant bombardment of ads kills me. I can't even press 10 buttons without it prompting an ad, which pops up and covers the whole screen, so you can not play until you close it. Very distracting, frustrating, I uninstalled. I wanted to learn guitar chords not ad strategy
Really Great
I have enjoyed improving my knowledge of the neck with this app. I have been trying for years to learn the notes, I have drawn them out on paper, tried memorizing them and testing myself. This app makes it efficient, fun, and customizable to improve your knowledge of your instrument.
