    R marks "relative" major/minor, for example: A minor pentatonic is relative to C major pentatonic (contains same notes/shapes, just root note is different). I can/could change defa…

    Hi, yes, that's a known issue. I added flat/sharp button as an option, but, I think that makes things even worse. I am working on a fix for this...

    could you be any more constructive, I mean, which parts are confusing / none intuitive?

    It can be quite intimidating at first I guess. It makes (starts to make) sense once you turn off some shapes and start connecting them together one by one. I am not sure if you had…

    to be honest, I targeted desktop audience, and running linux (and android) myself, I am bit limited in this (testing) area. I might be getting an iOSmac device soon so that might h…
