The idea was to make something for the eternally "intermediate" guitarist (myself included). There are a lot of beginner apps which rely on learning songs, toolkits which give you a bunch of stuff with no explanation but not many in-between apps to actually learn and practice more generic and somewhat advanced stuff.
The app contains short lessons, recaps and most importantly challenges (visual, audio and pure theory) along with a very complete library.
The challenges are made for practicing, they will get increasingly harder and getting to the max score is supposed to be quite hard. The idea being that you have to repeat them regularly until your brain has integrated the info and it flows naturally rather than being a one time quick dopamine shot. This is partly inspired by how language learning apps work.
It has no ads, a lifetime purchase option and you can use it without an account if you don't care about multi-device sync or backing up your progress.

(This is my second and last post about this sorry for spam. My first post a few weeks ago didn't get any views and posting on a saturday might not have helped...)
My first bit of feedback is that the icons in the right column should be higher contrast. For me, they are difficult to see.
Also, I see the icons are eye, mortar board, and ear. What’s the fourth icon?
I’m solidly in the beginner camp (even though I’ve been trying to learn guitar for 35 years now), so maybe this isn’t for me. I’m going to kick the tires this weekend.
Have you tried the light mode? I find it has better contrast than dark one but I might need to add an accessibility setting too
The fourth icon is a head with a gear inside, it represents your progress on the pure theory challenge
You can still have a look, the beginner lessons are free. But when starting out I think just learning to play your favorite songs is probably the best way to improve at first
