Very good guitar chord app

The UI takes getting used to, but once you figure it out, it is quite powerful and better than most guitar apps out there. My only wishes are:

1. that you could get the actual notes instead of just fret dots on the chord collection and songwriting modules instead of having to export to pdf or single chord drill downs just to see the notes

2. Chord collections let you play the sound of the chords for ear training instead of having to put them in a song first.

3. that export also retained the scale degree colors.

I still gave it 5 stars because again it still beats most apps, but these things keep it from being perfect.

Musicians Best Friend and Assistant.

This App has thought me so much about theory, I also keep track of all of my works in it, helps me with new ideas, it is also a fantastic tool for analyzing pieces and so much more. It takes a little to get the best of it, but it’s worth learning it. It always presents a few bugs here and there very randomly, but it is definitely the best app of its kind by far! I’ve been using it for over 5 years now and it is a must have for me.
