Guitar player here. App looks great, but shame it's only for piano. I used a different app that does pretty much the same thing and really benefited from it, the improvement was noticeable after each session. If you add guitar support it will be an immediate download for me.

Why not use Tab notation for guitar?

  There are some settings where it's good for a guitar player to be able to sight read. If you're playing for random bands, or playing classical, it can be a big help.

  Tab notation doesn't provide full time signature information, if you're picking up a piece of music which you've never heard played before In tablature, imagine one string's line shows ---10-----7--8------11----13. How long do you hold each note? Clearly 7 to 8 is quick, but how quick? Sheet music gives you this exact information.

    That's a solved problem. Tab + stave notation, with the stave above and tab below.

      Here's an example from the (great) abcjs project: https://paulrosen.github.io/abcjs/visual/tablature.html https://paulrosen.github.io/abcjs/visual/tablature.html

  standard notation is much better for learning to see and hear patterns too.

I hear you on the other instruments and guitar request. I tried making a violin app years ago and it was a tiny fraction of the traffic of the piano version which I'm guessing is common theme amongst other developers. That's not an excuse but just the reason I didn't focus on other instruments in the past. Now technically I did slightly support guitar in my app in that you can offset the input of notes in settings which would mean you could use the mic as input and play the guitar as you'd expect while sight reading but the onscreen is still piano. Maybe sometime soon
