It just crashes on me without even opening. It used to work. Can someone update it please? I bought this app and now it’s worthless. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2018-12-17, version 1.1* Don’t waste your time and money. Crashes immediately. Beware!! ### 1/5 — disappointing *2018-12-09, version 1.1* Crashes immediately on startup every time. Was great when I first installed it before one of the system updates. What can we do? ### 1/5 — Bill *2018-11-24, version 1.1* Awful - I just downloaded this app and it won’t open. Just keeps crashing. Want my money back. ### 1/5 — Will Not Open *2018-11-21, version 1.1* I just purchased this app moments ago and it will not open. The App Support link takes you to the website but there’s no means of submitting questions for the developer or requesting assistance. Please fix crashes. ### 1/5 — Broken in iOS 12 *2018-11-16, version 1.1* No longer works ### 1/5 — Crashing since recent update of iOS 12.0. *2018-10-14, version 1.1* This WAS a fantastic app. I used it every week. It started crashing after the iOS 12.0 update. Hoping for a ChordDesigner update soon, as there is no product out there like this. ### 1/5 — No longer works with later iOS *2018-10-09, version 1.1* Too bad it was a good app now it just crashes ### 1/5 — Crashes when you open the app *2018-10-08, version 1.1* App will not open ### 1/5 — Great but Oh darn! *2018-10-04, version 1.1* Too bad it’s non-operational with latest iOS 12. Any plans to update? Free or otherwise?? ### 1/5 — Does not work with IOS 12 on iPhone 7 or XS *2018-09-27, version 1.1* Does not work with IOS 12 on iPhone 7 or XS. Loved it when it worked. But now it just opens and closes. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Still crashing *2020-07-27, version 1.2* I figured I’d give it a shot cause a lot of the reviews saying it crashes when you try and open it we’re over a year old and it had said that the developer had fixed some bugs that cause crashes. When I first downloaded the app and opened it directly from the App Store, it opened and worked exactly as hoped, great app. However once I closed it the first time and tried to open it again it simply won’t open at all, it tries but it doesn’t manage. I wish they would get this fixed cause the version you can use on their website for free is great and the app version is even better, but the app is basically useless to most people simply cause it won’t open. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-05-07, version 1.1* Paid the 1.99 (any way to get a refund?) and the app won’t even open on my iPhone. ### 1/5 — Crashes constantly *2020-04-28, version 1.1* Used to be a great Application. Crashes on startup now. Developer needs to do an update ASAP. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with iOS 13 *2019-11-11, version 1.1* This app should be removed from the store. It does not work. ### 1/5 — Quit working *2019-05-14, version 1.1* Initially purchased in September of 2018. At first the app worked great but suddenly stopped working in October or so and just disappeared from my iPhone. I downloaded again and all it does is make the phone “flash” but doesn’t open the app. Deleted and reloaded several times but the app still doesn’t work. Sent email to website but never received an answer. Very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Don’t buy! *2019-04-27, version 1.1* Installed on my iPhone X. It crashes every time I try to open it. ### 1/5 — Crashes immediately *2019-02-13, version 1.1* IPad Pro IOS v. 12.1.1. On opening, it immediately disappears and displays the desktop. Deleting and re-installing has no effect. ### 1/5 — What the heck... *2019-01-31, version 1.1* I bought this app and it won’t even open. It crashes every time I try. Would love my money back. ### 1/5 — App is crashing, doesn’t load *2019-01-11, version 1.1* I just purchased this app and am unable to get it to launch on my IphoneX. I’ve rebooted but it still does not work. Could the developer look into this? ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Open *2019-01-10, version 1.1* Just purchased this app and it doesn’t launch. It crashes. I’m running iOS 12. Please fix this. ## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2017-10-28, version 1.0* As a guitar player I’m often trying to explore the fretboard and find new chord voices. But it is helpful to be able to accurately name the chords especially when playing with my band. This app easily accomplishes this feat. Highly recommend! ### 3/5 — Great when it works *2018-12-18, version 1.1* Updated IOS and now this app will not open. PLEASE UPDATE. And Apple, get yr act together, OS upgrades always cause stupid issues like this. Slow down and get things right first. ### 3/5 — Good but currently crashing *2017-10-31, version 1.0* Worked at first but now won't open in OS11.0.3 on iPhone 7+. ### 2/5 — Crashes on iPhone XS *2019-04-24, version 1.1* It won't even open! Help! Great app when it worked! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
