  • Very useful

    Very useful as an aid for interpreting and understanding written chord notations in sheet music.

    I've used it with Vince Guaraldi's "A Charlie Brown Christmas" piano music and various works by George Winston. Winston's compositions in particular make use of chords and chord progressions.

    The time spent studying the pieces sans piano but with this software was rewarding.

  • Good app if bugs were fixed

    Great app, good tool for learning chords. One annoying bug is that occasionally when I’m the piano progression section the app will immediately send you back to the Home Screen of the app over and over again until you restart the app only for the problem to happen again. Makes it almost unusable at times but when the app works it’s great

  • App needs work for basic functionality

    The content of this app is great, it’s basically a chord and scale encyclopedia. Excellent reference tool. But it is so buggy that it’s virtually unusable. In the scales / chord dictionary sections, about 65% of the time there is no sound when you click the scale. You can open the scale and click individual notes which produces sound, but not from the main scale or chord dictionary pages. I have to keep hard closing the app over and over again until it decided to boot up with volume. I’ve run into similar issues in the chord progression section, where instead of playing back the chord, it’s just a single note.. (and I’m familiar with the chord / arpeggio settings in chord progression, not a settings issue)… This also can only be resolved (IF it decides to resolve) by hard exiting the app and reopening. Sometimes one reboot will get it to work and sometimes I reset the app 10 times and still can’t get any sound out of it, then all of a sudden it works. It’s a great idea for an app, but there are also a million apps that do the same thing as this one.

    Piano Chords and Scales is the exact same app (the original) but much better functionality

  • Every scale and chord imaginable

    The title says it all. This app shows countless chords and scales, what fingers to use, the whole or half steps you need, accompanying chords to use (plus a chart for those chords without having to look them up)….just everything. It’s very educational as well. It is easy to use and find what you need. Just a perfect companion for piano players.

  • Worth it

    There’s always a steep learning curve with any new software but this one was worth it.

  • Crashes

    Bro all things are helpful if they work. This app crashes consistently
  • Good work

    This is well organized and color coated and I’m thankful for detailed visual resources like this. Good job to the team that created this and continues to support it.
