I love it

I m learning a lot with this app

No idea how to use this

Been playing guitar mandolin and banjo for many years and I have no idea how to work this app.

Great app!!!

I got this app when I bought a banjo and boy let me tell you, it works so well! It doesn’t have the cords to songs but you can learn the cords and then go to an app like ultimate guitar and play songs.
Definitely worth getting!

My Go To chord creator

I have used the Chord Aid for years it is an outstanding product I use often for all my string instruments. Well Done!

Excellent app

I was looking for chord diagrams for a plectrum banjo. After some searching around I eventually found this. Well thought out and with custom tunings, it does the job better than any other. 5 star app.

How does the chord finder work?

The app functions as both a chord reference and a chord finder. You can look up specific chords and their fingerings, or use the 'Reverse Chord Finder' mode. In this mode, you select notes on the fretboard, and the app will identify matching chord names and suggest fingerings.

Can I customize the chord shapes I see?

Yes, you can adjust the complexity of the chord shapes displayed to match your skill level. The app offers both standard shapes and more challenging variations, such as those with two barres or requiring significant finger stretching.

Is ChordAid compatible with left-handed players?

Yes, the application is designed to support left-handed players. This ensures that all users can access and utilize the chord reference and finder features comfortably, regardless of their handedness.

What are the benefits of the 'favorite chords' feature?

You can mark individual chord shapes as favorites to build your own personalized chord library. This allows you to quickly access the chords you use most frequently or are currently practicing. You can then switch to a display mode that shows only your favorite shapes.
