Good app
One of the better scale apps,it's not overly complicated and has good sound. Hope they include more for alternate tunings. But for basic tuning scale learning it does a very good job. Add those alternate tunings and it's definitely 5 star.
Awesome
I have really been wanting to learn scales and this little app has helped a lot. Was worth it for me :D
Some bad programming
In some instances it calls a C note b#, and an F note e#. Obviously this is incorrect.
