## What is Guitar Companion App?

Tune up, keep time, learn the fretboard, and run your set — Guitar Companion is the practice toolkit that follows you from the bedroom to the stage.

TUNER
A responsive chromatic tuner that listens to your guitar and shows you exactly how far off you are. A converging dial gives you the fine detail as you close in, then settles when you land it. Standard tuning is free, forever. Go Pro for Drop D, Drop C, Open D, DADGAD, and any custom tuning you want to save.

METRONOME
Clean, dependable timekeeping with adjustable subdivisions and accent patterns. Pro unlocks decimal BPM for the tempos that sit between the whole numbers, advanced subdivisions, and fully custom accents.

CHORDS, SCALES & CAGED
A browsable library of chord voicings with clear fretboard diagrams — free, all of it. Pro adds scale shapes across the neck (major, natural minor, and the pentatonics) and the full CAGED system, so you stop memorising boxes and start seeing how they connect. Every diagram comes with audio at a steady 60 BPM you can loop for as long as you need.

MUSIC PLAYER
Bring in the songs you're actually working on — from the Files app, your camera roll, a cloud drive, or recorded straight into the app. Pro adds the smart metronome, so a click locks to the track you're playing along with.

SETLISTS
Build a set, put the songs in order, and store the tempo and notes for each one. Live Performance mode steps you through the night song by song, cueing each tempo as you go, so you're not fumbling with your phone between numbers. Free covers one setlist of up to five songs. Pro removes the limits and adds folders and cloud sync across your devices.

WHAT'S FREE
The tuner in standard tuning, the metronome, the full chord library, the music player, and a setlist of up to five songs. No trial clock, no ads.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.1.1 — 2026-09-11

Fixed a bug that could stop the tuner responding.

The tuner could fail to pick up your guitar — most often on the low E
and A strings, on quieter instruments like an unplugged electric, and
oddly enough when playing close to the microphone. It now tracks the
note continuously as it rings out, and settles faster when you turn a
peg.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-09

New in 1.1.0:

• A first-run walkthrough that tours the app — metronome, setlists, play
  along, chords and scales, and the tuner. Replay it any time from
  Settings.
• The Smart Metronome's tempo slider is now labeled, and detected tempos
  round to clean quarter-BPM values instead of long decimals.
• Songs that can't be read now say so, with an option to analyze again,
  instead of appearing to load forever.
• Restoring purchases tells you the result.
• Signing out asks for confirmation first.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-08

No release notes.
