## ChordShapes Description
This powerful app shows you in beautiful detail the numerous ways you can play chords on your guitar, your ukulele, and other plucked string instruments.

Here you will find the classic chord shapes, but also every possible variation on the fretboard.  You'll be amazed how many different ways you can play the chords of your songs.

The app supports over 50 different chord types; slash chords are also supported.  In total, there are over 7,500 chords.

Swipe a chord diagram with your finger to strum the chord on the instrument.  The chord will be strummed according to the speed and direction of your finger.   

For a more accurate sound, you can select either steel strings or nylon strings.

Do a long press on a diagram to see it bigger.

You discovered an interesting chord but you don't know what it's called?  You can use our Reverse Lookup tool to find out.

Pick the scale of your choice; the app will show you the diatonic chords for that scale.

Create rich chord sheets with the chords of your choice.  Save your work to a file, then export your chord sheets as PDF.

Interested in alternate tunings?  You're covered.  Pick your tuning from our catalog and we'll show you how to play all your chords in that particular configuration.  You can also create your own custom tuning, with 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 strings.

## ChordShapes Reviews in United States

### ***** "Pretty good"
I wish it covered 12 frets
-- Barry <><, 2025-08-28

### ****- "Good, but could be better."
This is a good looking app, it is easy to operate, and is useful. 
Unfortunately, after looking up a chord, you have to look through the whole chart, to find the chord you want to play at a specific position. 
It would be much better if the chords were listed by Chord Name —> Neck Position instead of by Chord Name —> Number of Strings Played…or at least make it a sorting option.
Also, it’s about three dollars too expensive.
-- itBlues, 2025-04-13

### ***-- "The app needs to give users a trial period before buying"
I would buy it if it allows me to see if I need it or not before forcing me to buy it for the advanced features. No thanks.  Let me know if you can let me try it for a week before I decide.
-- BPYahoo, 2024-12-31

### ***** "Nice!"
Cool app. I just wish I could do more with the chord lookup. Like save a chord and print to pdf from the lookup page. I’m trying to learn theory and would love to see triad shapes only and have ability to export as pdf for note taking in other apps. Anyway, this is a cool app. Looking forward to using more.
-- M97405, 2024-12-08

### ***-- "Dark mode"
Turn off dark mode ????
-- J-¥en, 2024-12-01

### ****- "Works but can be better"
The app should allow me to move a chord shape up the neck without having to use a custom chord shape. For example, a D shape chord at the 12th fret is C. All me to move existing D chord to position 12. Also when I draw the D shape chord do not automatically flatten the chord. If I click on the flattened fingering remove and use the dots as expected. 
All else is very good.
-- nicknsmeismynickname, 2024-11-02

### ***** "Incredible!"
Incredible app! I love that I can find chords in alternate tunings. The app itself looks great, runs smooth, and is well organized. I think the full access is worth every penny for the value you get.
-- Jerryy03, 2024-09-28

### ***** "Chords progressions make perfect sense"
If you haven’t tried this app I recommend it!!
-- traeokc, 2024-04-20

### ***** "First Class Design & Functionality"
Everything Mathiue creates seems to be designed thoughtfully and developed to a high standard. This is the third app of his I’ve used, and his craftsmanship once again made it a no-brainer decision for me to upgrade to the premium version.

Highly recommended. Pro tip: tap on the “Developer” section to explore his other apps if you haven’t already.
-- liamdillon, 2022-08-22

### ***** "ChordShapes 👍🏼"
This is a great app. I highly recommend it.
