Description
Fretonomy is the ultimate educational game to learn the notes and chords on the fretboard of the guitar and other stringed instruments. There are 9 instruments available to practice on:
Choose your instrument and pick one of the many games available to you to practice the fretboard until you have mastered every fret and every chord pattern.
Customize your experience by selecting which section of the fretboard you want to practice on. Practice the first frets, a section in the middle, or the entire fretboard.
Many games are available. Choose how you want to train. Learn by simply matching random notes with the fret on the fretboard, or try something different with the Color Matching game!
Learn and master all kinds of chord patterns on the guitar with the Name Chord game. Choose which chords you want to practice on any section of the fretboard, and go at your own pace. You will learn to identify any chord pattern very quickly!
Learn how to quickly read notes on a staff in the Staff game. Choose whatever section of the staff you want to practice on, choose the staff type, and start training!
Or master the fretboard and staff at the same time in the Staff and Fretboard game. Select a fret on the fretboard that matches a note on the staff!
Explore scales on the fretboard of your instrument with the Scale Explorer game. Choose a root note, pick one of the 950+ different scales available, and start memorizing your scale. Change the color of the notes on the fretboard to identify intervals easier.
Create your own songs on the fly and learn how to play them right away using the Chord Progression generator tool. Any popular chord progression can be generated in any scale you want. Play along to the chords of your progression by using the playback feature to practice the shapes.

Comments on Fretonomy - Learn Fretboard for Android
★★★★★Peter Murphy· Feb 24, 2025
Excellent tool to for daily practice. It has really come along way from the first version. Lots of variety of lessons and activities that help you learn the fretboard! *Update* This app just keeps getting better. The most recent updates have changed this from being a helpful tool to a becoming a necessity for anyone learning guitar and music theory for guitar. I don't but apps often, but this one is well worth the money, can't praise it enough!

This thing is a dream come true. I have struggled to memorize the notes on the fretboard but this thing has done the trick!

I would pay a one time amount for the fretboard training. But unfortunately you locked it behind a recurring monthly cost. Fortunately there are alternatives...

This is an amazing app, I paid for a month right away. However, as I'm learning guitar in EAD GCF (perfect fourths tuning), right after paying I found I can't bump up the C an octave (C4 is lower pitch then a G3 for some reason) in custom tuning. 😭 Also love to see what I select in the custom tuning screen after selecting an option from the drop. Being able to play the notes too from that screen would also be dope ux. Would really appreciate it if a dev can take a look into my issue ♥️

The free version is so limited it's basically useless - and the paid version is extortionately expensive for what it is. For this kind of app I would expect a £2-£5 one-off purchase. A £20 annual subscription is ludicrous.
