Description
Every guitar/bass player knows that they *should* have the fretboard memorized, but they don't because it's tedious and boring. Fret Pro can do all the hard work for you! With just 10 minutes a day, you’ll have the fretboard memorized in no time. It's easy and fun!
SPEAK THE LANGUAGE OF YOUR INSTRUMENT
Having the notes on your guitar or bass fretboard memorized is the most important step toward becoming fluent in the language of your instrument. When you master the fretboard, you can spend less time thinking and more time enjoying playing music.
PLAYER HIGHLIGHTS
- "I’ve had lessons on-and-off for 10 years, but never did the work of really knowing the notes on the fretboard. I didn’t think it really mattered. But now, concepts I slightly understood before are falling into place, and I’m able to communicate with my teacher in the same language. Recommended."
- "I’ve been struggling to memorize the notes on the fretboard for awhile now. This app really helped me get the practice I needed!"
LEARN GUITAR FRETBOARD FAST
Fret Pro is the fastest way to memorize the music notes on your guitar fretboard.

TIPS
- The Fret Pro app works best with an acoustic guitar or bass, or an electric guitar or bass with amplifier. It will also work for an unamplified electric guitar and bass in very quiet environments.
- The app listens for you to play the correct note, but that doesn't mean you can't make things more exciting. Try practicing different picking patterns, techniques, and rhythms.
- Use your favorite effects and pedals like delay, reverb, or distortion! We'll still recognize if you play the right note… though pitch modulating effects probably won't work :)
- Try to visualize a fretboard in your mind as you play each note. Can you play each note without looking at your fretboard?
- Use the String Focus in settings to hone in on a specific string until you know it by heart.
Memorizing the notes on your guitar or bass is a great way to take your playing to the next level. Supplement your current music practice or lessons with ten minutes per day and you'll be surprised at how fast you learn the notes.
NOTE FROM THE DEVELOPER
Hi! Fret Pro is an indie app made by one guy (me!), who is deeply passionate about music. It is my top priority to build an app that is actually *useful*. There is no nonsense and no tricks to steal your time or money. I actually want the Fret Pro app to be so good that you can STOP using it because it served its purpose (helping you memorize the notes) and you don't need it anymore!
Got an idea to help make Fret Pro better? Send me a message at support@fretpro.app! The app is under active development and I’m constantly thinking of ways to make memorizing and visualizing the fretboard faster and easier. Thanks so much for your support, feedback, and reviews!

Ratings and Reviews
Good when it works
The paid version of the app has been helpful for improving my fretboard knowledge but sometimes a note will come up, I will play it and the app won’t register anything not telling me I’m right or wrong , even though when I go to audio input settings to test if my noise gate is too low it works fine? This bug seems to come up multiple times whenever I use it
The app itself is very useful, but…
The app itself is very useful, but I hate subscription based apps and will never subscribe. Unfortunately, the one time purchase price is way too high for such a simple app when there are much more complex pieces of software for around the same money.
Good App that could be perfect
Please, please consider adding the option to display the notes as their notation form rather than just the note letter. This would be such an incredible help for those wishing to learn to read music across the full fretboard.
It would push the app from good to perfect.
Developer Response ,
Hi! Thank you for the review. This is on my todo list and I’m hoping to get to it soon :)
