Guitar Man: Fretboard Trainer

Guitar Man is a focused fretboard trainer for guitarists who want to actually master the neck, not just noodle through the same five patterns forever. Whether you're learning your first notes or trying to break out of pentatonic prison, Guitar Man gives you clean, focused drills that build real fluency. Set up a daily routine, keep your streak alive, and finally know what you're playing. DAILY PRACTICE Build a routine that fits your life. Pick your tools, set a timer for each step, and tap Start. The app walks you through with audio cues at transitions and a warning chime as time runs out. Your streak and monthly heatmap keep you honest. • Smart reminders that skip the days you've already practiced, mention your streak, and send one last nudge in the evening if it's on the line • Block distracting apps until you've practiced today, with a short unlock if you really need one CORE TRAINERS • Note Guesser – Identify any note on the fretboard.
