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.

Good diversity of chords but give me a flow view or print out

I need to see them without scrolling left and right. Make them flow down like a responsive web. Or create a printout. Both for favorited chords.

This has Good diversity of chords but please give me a flow view or print out so I can see my favorite chords all at once.

It has chords but not much else.

No way to find slash chords, clumsy format. There are better apps but they are all in the android universe.

Bad

Bad doesn’t have all the chords and can’t print them out still stinks

Handy app

I have been playing mandolin for several years and though I know many chords, I want to learn more and often need a variation of the same chord to keep things interesting.

Once I figured out how to get around in the app it’s great.

Limitado

Apresenta os acordes maiores e menores e muitas variações possíveis destes acordes, mas na versão gratuita não vai muito além disso. Precisei ver os acordes com sétimas e era preciso pagar. Hoje em dia, com dezenas de sites fornecendo imagens de acordes gratuitamente, pagar para ver algo no app não faz muito sentido.

Such a great resource

I found this incredible, so many options for every chord. Also great for kids to play with chords for theory’s sake wihout playing guitar. Super neat!

Disappears after a couple of days.

Weird app, hard to read the chords. Lists some chords with diagrams but then they all disappear. Can’t transpose. You’d do better to just take a photo of a page of banjo chords and keep it on your phone.

Exactly what I was looking for.

I am currently learning several new instruments at once and needed a utility that could store new chords, save them in a list and translate the chords in that list to different instruments. This app does this brilliantly. The interface may not be state of the art, but the feature set and presentation is rich, clear and concise. I am very happy with my purchase.

Does Not Display Finger Numbers

Does not offer finger numbers making it nearly useless for students.

Well executed

The interface is exceptionally well designed

Mystifying

I’m sure there’s something to this app but I can’t figure out how to use it. No help. No instructions. No tutorial. I can’t even get it to display any chords. Oh well.

Chord Fantastic...

Great App... Have very basic knowledge playing the Guitar and a Ukulele, I’ve purchased several books and eBooks on Chords and as they are all excellent with this App I am able to go from chord to chord without turning a single page... I also can mark all the chords I’ve learnt as I go along... Well done and thank you... 👍🏽

Great for those working on their jazz chords

I really like the options for filtering by movable shapes, and for identifying the notes by scale position (as opposed to CDEFGAB).
Also being able to see a chord sequence is much better than just a single chord when trying to break down a song.
I bought the full version, although not sure I needed the tunings. I thought why not, as I never know what chords I am playing with these alt tunings, and the lookup function will be fun to try with these.
Really happy with this app!

Versatile, and extremely useful

This is a well-designed and nicely polished app useful for finding chords to help with arranging songs similar to many other apps. However, it can also manage unusual instruments and altered tunings, and has the ability to copy the generated chord boxes. This stand-out feature means you can make up your own song charts in your favourite word processing app and construct your own song charts, which is really what so many musicians need to do. So I could think of a couple of small improvements, but overall I highly recommend it!

Extremely helpful with sound!

Just take the mute switch off 😅
