Fretronome is designed for guitarists to support them in learning the notes and intervals on a guitar fretboard.
It supports two modes, practice mode and quiz mode.
Info: For the german speaking users: The note “H” is displayed as “B”.
In practice mode there is one big button which will randomly place a note or interval on the fretboard, also a sound will be played – hitting it again will display the result.
The quiz mode – hit “Start Quiz” on the top right – will place a note/interval on the fretboard and display a list of answers to choose from. It will also track your time and success rate – this is not saved though, meaning ending the quiz mode will also delete your stats.

For the notes there is the option to limit your practice to certain strings only.
