Description

Chord! is a chord and scale reference that works with any fretted instrument like guitar, basses, ukulele, banjos,… It computes and analyses all the possible fingerings for chords, scales, and arpeggios.
With Chord!, you can also write a song by simply dragging and dropping chords, transpose it in any key, compute the fingerings with any tuning and generate a beautiful print-ready PDF, etc.
You can also import your existing songs in text format (please note that the app does not ship with songs). You can also link audio tracks from your music library and play them at the same time while adjusting their pitch and/or speed.
You don't even have to know music theory to use it: behind its brute force, the app knows how to handle by itself some subtleties of music to give meaningful results.
If you don't have to be an advanced player to use the app, you can however take a look under the hood and tweak the parameters if you like! Whatever is your level or your instrument, Chord! will adapt and give you the most precise answer.
You can search for any chord, split (like D/F#), or not. If you're a beginner, you can choose the chord from a list, but you can also use the intelligent keyboard to enter the chord as it is written. If this keyboard is a great way to enter chords, it is also very useful to discover and understand how the chords are formed. You can also enter some notes on a neck to find which chords it can be. You can hear how each fingering sounds. Chord arpeggios are also supported, as well as drop voicings (drop 2, drop3, etc.).
The app also ships with the biggest list of named scales (and you can create your own scales). It analyses and presents them with nice interactive views (scale, score, and keyboard). Of course, it can also lay down these scales on a neck (with sound) and compute their fingerings. Like for chords, you can even search for a scale from its fingering!
Each scale can be harmonized (decomposed into chords). You can also enter a sequence of chords to find which scale you can use to improvise onto.
You can use one of the hundred tunings that ship with the app, or you can add your own ones, for any instrument, with or without a capo, even with broken strings if you want!
The app uses custom and unique algorithms to generate charts, easily input complex harmonic structures, extract chords from fingerings, determine finger positions, compute keys of scales, generate chords from scales and find scales that go well with some chords.
For example, Chord! is the right tool in these situations:
• You want to have your songbook available at any time, in your pocket;
• You're a beginner and you want to know how to play easily a D/F# chord;
• One gave you a ukulele and you want to know how to tune it and how to play the G Hawaiian scale;
• You want to know on what scale you can improvise for some chord sequence (and the answer can be different than the Pentatonic minor!);
• You want to print your song and share it with your band.
• You want to experiment with this nice open tuning, moreover with a bottleneck;
• Your little sister can't make bar chords and you want to show her how she can do without bars, with three (little) fingers only;
• You want to impress your little sister by showing her how you can play the same chords with two bars!
• You want to understand how this fingering for C13 is actually a fingering for C13;
• You broke a string and want to know how to play some chords without;
• You want to know how Django managed to play with two and a half fingers.
The app fully supports left-handed instruments.
Main functions of the app:
- Write, transpose, fingerize, print, and share songs;
- Search chord fingerings (or chord charts);
- Search chords from fingerings;
- Search scale fingerings;
- Search scales from fingerings;

The best Chord! app ever

aathomus on

Australia

I’ve been using Chord! for quite some time and I just have good things to say about it! It’s just the best! ♥️🙏🏼🤘🏼

I should have purchased earlier

eggheadonly on

Australia

I’ve got plenty of bass guitar apps but I use this one (and a tuner) a lot. Interface is easy to navigate and there are plenty of useful features.

Great app but I’m struggling with the workflow

Thommmmmmo on

Australia

I got this app as I wanted to study and learn a few songs with more complex chord progressions and fingering, some Djavan and Jobim bossa style acoustic numbers. Love the standard chord engine in the app, can often get either the fingering I want or a fairly close estimate by playing with string and voicing variations. I’m sure there must be something I’m missing but I am really struggling with the workflow for getting these chords into an existing tune. There seems to be a real disconnection between the chord/fingering page and the song. Right now when I click into the chord / fingering page from the song viewer any changes I make (custom or a different variation) are not reflected in the song when I leave that page. To change the chord in the song the only way I have found is to enter the edit page. However this page has a different chord engine without the versatility of the main one. You can access custom fingering from there easily but not other variations. Also means a lot of going back and forth between the two chord engines before finally pasting the chord you want. So much easier if chords just saved directly to the tune from the main chord engine. Please tell me what I am doing wrong! Would love to give this app a better rating as there is a lot of depth to it but I am wasting so much time with the workflow that I feel like giving it up.

Extremely useful with great depth of features

Couldn’t live without it

Attention to details

I actually can’t believe the depth of detail this app has. The developer has put some serious thought and effort into this. Well done

Amazing App for chord charts

Paulypaul97543 on

Australia

I am amazed at how deep this app goes into chord structure. Utilizes circle of fifths to configure chords in any key Major or Minor. Includes reverse lookup for chords and song chord chart creation. Takes a little time to realise what a gem this app is. I am convinced this dev is a genius 😀

Must have

Godspear on

Australia

Such a great tool when when you are noodlibg around and want to find the name of the chord or scale. Amazing collection of scales - far beyond what other apps offer. Developer is very responsive to feedback and questions. Best app I have bought

Chord Rocks!

Saltflats Bill on

Australia

I love this app! It lets me structure my chords exactly the way I want them! The only thing I really, really want is the ability to manually arrange my set lists! Guys??? 🙃

Perfect!

Twelvenote on

Australia

This app is exactly what I have been looking for; all the chords, notes, scales and arpeggios laid out in front of you. No need to figure it out yourself, simply dial up the chord and all the information is presented to you in a easy to digest format. Big thanks to the creator!

Chord! is a must have app

Bob.au on

Australia

This is a fabulous app with an incredible amount of detail which is easy to find and navigate. You should visit the home page first and read through the support files. When I thought that something was wrong it was only because I had not set a parameter correctly. I have found any errors but it has allowed me to identify errors in chord charts from other people. This is an ultimate value for money app! well done guys.
