I totally agree, in fact feature number one is already planned. It'll probably be in the form of a chord schema generator and player that also shows you which scales and roots/thirds... you can use in a given chord.

For 2, it's possible to flip the fretboard to a lefty guitar. Is that what you are looking for? You can find the option under settings. Or do you mean flipping it vertically?

Vertically as well as 90 degrees.

See how most images are showing chords. The fret is laid out vertically. I've been using those and can thereby read that more naturally.

Oh right! I see what you mean. Got it, awesomeme idea: Chord charts like these are as of now a planned feature. Something to look out for in the future.

Thanks for the suggestion!
