About this app

Stop practicing with outdated metronome apps. PickQuest is a complete guitar practice suite designed for musicians who want to improve their timing, technique, and muscle memory.

6 POWERFUL PRACTICE MODES:

🎵 Metronome - Precise timing from 40-220 BPM with visual pulse indicator, multiple time signatures (4/4, 3/4, 6/8, etc.), subdivisions (1/4, 1/8, triplets, 1/16), and customizable lead-in countdowns. Real-time haptics feedback on every beat.

🎸 Backing Tracks - Play along with realistic drum, bass, piano, and keyboard accompaniment. Choose from common chord progressions (I-IV-V, i-VII-VI, and more) and customize tempo, instrumentation mix, and audio effects.

📈 Scale Training - Learn and master guitar scales (pentatonic, major, minor, blues, and more) with note-by-note guidance. Adjustable tempo, visual fretboard highlighting, and real-time audio feedback.

🎼 Chord Transitions - Perfect your chord changes with guided practice modes. Smooth transitions between any chord in any key with configurable time intervals.

🎹 Arpeggio Practice - Build finger independence and picking accuracy across all CAGED shapes, qualities (major, minor, 7th, maj7, m7), and inversions.
