### 4/5 — 課金について

*2026-01-08, version 2.2.2*

曲保存数は60曲以上増やすことはできますでしょうか？

### 2/5 — I want to like this app despite bad reviews

*2024-05-05, version 2.2.2*

I thought that a few bad reviews would not mean that this app was terrible. I tried it out. Yes, it does not have instructions on the app and that is quite confusing. However, the instructions are on the website, but even with the instructions, a major feature is missing! It cannot export my chord chart PDFs. How can I use them if I cannot export them or print them out or see them in full view? This app does not allow you to export a simple PDF. It only exports a plane text file which has a bunch of extra text in there that I don’t need. Therefore, this app is basically unusable for me.

### 4/5 — Good basic chart

*2022-07-06, version 1.2.7*

I just need to know the chord progressions. I don’t need to know the timing for each chord because the song is already in my head. I also don’t need to know the lyrics. The app is easy enough to figure out. It’s nice that it can figure out the key as well as transpose for you. I upgraded the app so I can identify verse, chorus, bridge. I wish it had the option to put 2x, 3x etc in the box following a chord progression that repeats. It would also be nice to share with other users. The ability to make playlists would also be nice.

### 1/5 — Crap

*2021-09-28, version 1.1.4*

Seriously!? No instructions!? I am getting rid of this app

### 5/5 — こういうの待ってた。

*2021-08-27, version 1.0.41*

いままでコード譜作るのにイライラしてたけど、これはほんと入力しやすい。コードネームだけでなくディグリーにも対応してるのもありがたい。key判定機能は天才的です。
