It wont change instruments. Crashes and goes back to home page. It wont go to settings. Crashes and goes back to my home page.

WAS a great app

I have always used this for uke, but I recently have been learning to play guitar. Unfortunately, the app crashes when I try to switch instruments. I can still use it for uke, but it will not work for guitar or any of the other instruments. Tap to switch=instant crash. ☹️

Fantastic Simple Perfect App!

I downloaded this app a couple of years ago and love its simple clean interface especially when I’m looking for some weird chord voicing. I use it all the time. The link to the paid version doesn’t work and I don’t think it prompted me to pay for the ad free version so thought it was fallow unsupported app and was dreading the day it finally broke with an iOS update.

Anyway I was just upgrading an iPad and clicked on the developer to find there is a paid version, which I couldn’t buy for fast enough. There is no option to review the paid app so I’m leave this one here.

I appreciate the app so much and have used for years. I would happily give it six stars if I could and would have paid twice the price now know how useful it is to me.

My only one little gripe if you Devs read this; there has to be Fsus2 open voicing and alternate odd open chords is usually what I use this app most for. You also might wanna fix that link or put some upgrades prompts in.

Thanks again for a great simple app with a fantastic UI!

No longer allows change of instrument without crashing the app

Well use to be great but now crashes any time you try to select instrument☹️

Baritone

I love this app, using it for Ukulele chords.
It would be so good if it had the Baritone Ukulele chords as well.
I have not found a good app for Baritone chords yet.

How do you remove ads? The link doesn’t seem to work.

Great App

I’ve been using this app forever! I use it regularly to figure out how to play chords in alternate locations along the neck! Great if you’re trying to get away from the open (cowboy) chords. I use it mostly for ukulele but have also used it for guitar and banjo.

My Go To App for Uke

This is the first app I reach for when I’m trying to do a chord on the ukulele. It’s simple and has exactly what I’m looking for.

THE BEST CHORD APP

This is the best free app available. Has many extended chords including 13ths which other apps try to charge for! Would well recommend

Was fabulous until the uke chords disappeared!

I purchased this app specifically for ukulele chords, and until now it has worked flawlessly! What happened???? When I opened the app during a uke jam today, it was set for guitar chords and did not have any other instrments available!!!

Please give me back my uke chords!

This is GREAT app

Very easy to use, suggests one fingering for chord and - MOST importantly - shows you alternate fingerings for the same chord down the side. Beautifully laid out, much faster to find the chord you want than any other app I've seen. Includes dim7, aug, sus2 and sus4 as well as 6/9 b5 #5 and 9 chords so goes way beyond "basic" chords as far as I'm concerned! Love this app. Together with my metronome app this is one of the MOST used apps on my phone. Highly recommended.

I Loved it, Until…..

Just opened Basichords on my iPhone…and discovered a banner of iAd had taken over my favorite app. Images of crap Lego games , Clash of Titans, and Google are flashing in my face. I loved it—but if they’re gonna pull this, I am GONE.

Favorite chord finder

I own quite a few chord apps, but I always seem to come back to this one. The keyboard and layout makes it super fast to find the desired chord or inversion.

Fantastic App

Thank you for making a great app that shows different inversions of all chords. The fact that it isn't just for ukulele but mandolin, guitar, banjo & even bouzouki as well, shows that you guys really know your stuff!! Thanks again!

favorite cavaco chord app - one minor gripe

Great cavaco / tenor guitar app. Don't buy Tekachords if you buy this. They are exactly the same thing. Why sell the same app with 2 different names? It's a rip off.

Most used chord app

I have tried many chord apps for uke chords... This is the one that stays on my home screen. Pick a chord super quick and instantly see several fretting positions too. Great that it has guitar chords as well.

Perfect

Easily the BEST chord app I have ever used on an apple device. May not look the prettiest but is really good for multi instrumentalists such as myself wanting banjo, uke, guitar, and mandolin chords all in one place. Great work, keep it simple!

My favorite

This is the best chord app ever!

Good

Great app overall. Has more types of chords ( sus2, dim, etc) than a lot of the other apps I've tried. Would be even better if it had drop D ukulele tuning (DGBE) such as what is usually on baritones.

Great

This is a great chord app! If there was a paid version I would buy to get rid of the ads.
