Description

Piano Companion is a music theory app which helps songwriters, producers, teachers and their students. It’s a flexible piano chords and scales dictionary with user libraries, reverse mode, the circle of 5ths, chord progression builder with common patterns. If you can’t remember the name of a piano chord or scale, this app helps you to find it by keys or using your external MIDI keyboard. For example, just press C, G and you will get C Major as the first piano chord in the search result. If you don’t see a piano chord or a specific scale, you can create a custom piano chord or scale and use it for chord charts or your user library.

The Piano Companion app shows chord and scale notes on the grand staff, degrees, relative scales, intervals, fingering for both hands in major and minor scales – and you can contribute your own custom fingering too. You can practice scales in different keys and clefs, practice progressions. Additionally, you can listen to how a scale or chord sounds in the loop or arpeggiated. You can see the list of compatible chords in the selected scale or list of compatible scales for a selected chord.

Good but disappointing features

Really enjoyed using the app BUT when I changed computers it wouldn’t let me go back to the pro app neither would it let me buy it again. I couldn’t get hold of anyone to resolve the issue. Really poor snag considering how good the app could actually be!

Just what I needed

Excellent app with many uses and great features.

Nice app

As a natural muso with no music education i like this app a lot for random concepts, but the description about fingering other uses kinda poses a concern lol

Very Useful App

All in one app for your piano knowledge gain, all chords you can see visually on different scales, and find almost all scales by name and their notation, on top of that, the app has a ability to set and see any scale on your favourite key or any key. And many things to discover.

Crazy good

Superb. A tutorial option would be great, but asides from that, stellar work

Love it!

Just started working my way around the ivories (fake ivories of course) and this is a brilliant companion app. In particular 'reverse chord look up' Thank you very much, keep it up!

Review
