Same request. I really struggled to use it because I’m only ever looking “down” at my fretboard with the low E at the “top”. When I tried to hold my iPhone in that orientation, it flipped on me. I had trouble mapping from your visual to my actual guitar. (I’m an intermediate player as well)
hmm..so you're requesting something slightly different from the other poster right? You're requesting portrait mode if im not mistaken. I got that request a few times as well...and I honestly tried but I cannot make it work. I might seek out pro frontend help to help me out here. If I misunderstood your request, could you explain a bit further? When you say low on top...is this what you mean? https://imgur.com/a/ctgM…
Just to add to the confusion, I would be really interested in a mode where everything is completely upside-down, including the text.
Basically, my instinct was to hold my phone as if it's the neck of the guitar, and look down at it to simulate the perspective of playing guitar.
If the whole game was flipped upside-down, this would work really naturally.

Try the practice mode. No timer no stress!

#54There’s a simpler way this is done, where there’s a long narrow sticker that goes on the neck of the instrument. I can’t seem to find the right picture. The internet has stickers that go on the body, or between the frets, but my friend found a ribbon sticker and used them when learning ukulele.
My daddy used to say, there's as many ways of learning guitar technique as there's lost picks in the universe :) Ok I made that up, but the point stands. At the end of the day, whatever works for you is the best solution Having said that, I've spent the last few years reading up on memory retention, SRS and using Anki a lot for languages and what I've found is that Recall is extremely important for increasing the str…
I think I may be the only person in the world who owns exactly one uke. Zero or two seem to be more common, and I think this person has four or five now.
If you put stickers everywhere I’d agree that’s a crutch. But maybe one instrument is not so bad.

oh man....its somehow triggering the mobile device check to enforce landscape mode. Easiest fix is to drag the bottom edge up to make it more "landscapey" and it'll go away. I really should check for the desktop before I enforce the tilt device thing
I get the same. I use a tiling window manager (sway) and monitors in portrait mode. No way I'm changing my whole screen layout just to use a particular site/game.

yeah, thats a good point. Like having 1 bike with training wheels and others without. That could work

If you're ok with it, I'll fix it in a few days and ping you here again.
