# Harmonie tonale — Chord analysis, music theory > Chord analysis, music theory (iPhone/iPad app by Aurelien Roblin.) - Source: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/harmonie-tonale/id6794343719 (this page in markdown: same URL + `.md`) - Developer: [Aurelien Roblin](https://appshunter.io/developer/6794072430) - Category: Music, Education - Price: Free with in-app purchases - Age rating: 4+ - Requires: iOS 15.1 · 34 MB - Languages: American English, French (France), European Spanish - Released: 2026-07-30 - Data updated: 2026-09-04 - User reviews in markdown: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/harmonie-tonale/id6794343719/reviews.md ## What is Harmonie tonale? You play a progression, it sounds right, and you could not say why. Harmonie answers that question, then drills you until the answer comes on its own. Enter a progression and the app shows what each chord does, its degree, its function, and the cadence that closes the phrase. WHY, NOT JUST WHAT Most chord apps name things. This one explains them. Why a borrowed iv darkens the arrival on I. Why a tritone substitution keeps its pull. Why V going to vi leaves the phrase open. The leading tone is named, and so is what it pulls towards. PRACTICE Short sets that never repeat. Name a degree, name a cadence, find the key, figure an inversion, count the accidentals in a key signature. Three levels, from three keys to all twenty-four. Every answer is marked and explained. TRY SOMETHING ELSE On any chord, the app offers what harmony allows in its place: tritone substitution, secondary dominant, ii-V, borrowed minor subdominant, Neapolitan sixth, interrupted cadence. One tap and you hear the difference. SEE AND HEAR A keyboard and a guitar fretboard where the notes of the chord light up. Real staff notation, with the key signature written in order. The circle of fifths, with its neighbours and its relative. Transposition, to compare two keys by ear. WRITTEN IN ENGLISH, NOT TRANSLATED The English here was written by hand, in the terms English-speaking theory actually uses. I-vi-ii-V is a rhythm changes turnaround, not a French anatole. V to I in root position is a perfect authentic cadence. V to vi is interrupted, and deceptive is given alongside it, because the two traditions disagree and you may have learned either one. Note names are a separate setting, independent of the language. Letters by default, syllables if you trained on solfege, and the chord field accepts both. NOTHING ASKED OF YOU No account, no ads, no tracking. Analyses, exercises and progress stay on your device, and everything works offline, including on a plane. Only the verification of your purchase goes through our payment provider. HARMONIE + The heart of the app is free and will stay free: analysing a progression, practising, listening. Harmonie + adds the why and the memory, meaning the explanations of borrowed chords, secondary dominants and substitutions, French figured bass as a second notation system, and your exercise progress kept from one session to the next. Monthly or annual subscription, cancellable at any time in your device settings, or a single lifetime purchase. Anyone who bought Harmonie + before this version keeps everything, for good.

And not by translation. The English was written by hand, in the terms English speaking theory actually uses. I-vi-ii-V is a rhythm changes turnaround, not a French anatole. V to I in root position is a perfect authentic cadence. V to vi is an interrupted cadence, with deceptive given alongside it, because the two traditions disagree and you may have learned either one. Note names are a separate setting, independent of the language. Letters by default, syllables if you trained on solfege, and the chord field accepts both, so you can type "Dm7 G7 C" whichever names you read. Real staff notation. Chords are engraved properly, with the key signature written in the order of the circle of fifths, ledger lines where they are needed, and seconds offset the way they should be. The clef and accidental outlines come from Bravura, the reference font. Dark mode, with three settings: follow the system, force light, force dark. Dark is not an inversion of light. It has its own hues, and every contrast has been measured. A new look. New colours, new type, new logo. The four function colours stay, retuned to the palette: they say the theory, and nothing else borrows them. The Circle screen now shows where you stand: day streak, success rate, time spent, and a breakdown by topic. Spanish is here too, written the same way. A price fix. The lifetime purchase cost less than the annual subscription, which made no sense. That is corrected. Thank you to everyone who bought Harmonie + before this version: your purchase carries everything added since, and everything to come. ### 1.2.0 — 2026-08-23 Les exercices arrivent. Le moteur qui analyse vos suites sait aussi vous interroger : degrés, cadences, tonalités, chiffrage, armures. Les questions sont calculées, jamais tirées d'une liste, donc elles ne s'épuisent pas. Trois niveaux, de trois tonalités aux vingt-quatre. Le cycle des quintes a désormais son quiz, à l'endroit même où la figure est sous vos yeux. Réharmoniser : sur n'importe quel accord de votre suite, l'app propose ce que la fonction autorise. Substitut tritonique, relatif, dominante secondaire, ii-V, sous-dominante mineure, sixte napolitaine, cadence rompue. Chacune s'applique d'un toucher. Un manche de guitare, à côté du clavier. Les positions y sont calculées comme le reste, et ce ne sont pas des doigtés : le manche dit où sont les notes, votre main décide. L'analyse tient maintenant dans un seul écran, sans défiler : nom d'accord, chiffrage, fonction et cadence d'un seul regard. Le champ de saisie accepte une suite entière, pas seulement un accord. Collez « Dm7 G7 C », ou les accords d'un lien reçu. Les accords remarquables sont désormais nommés pour tout le monde, emprunt ou dominante secondaire, avec leur chiffrage. Harmonie + en donne le pourquoi. Merci à celles et ceux qui ont acheté Harmonie + à sa sortie : votre achat donne tout ce qui a été ajouté depuis, et tout ce qui viendra. ### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-12 Harmonie se fait entendre, et change de visage. Jusqu'ici l'app expliquait l'harmonie tonale. Elle la joue désormais. • Touche un accord pour l'entendre, dans l'Analyseur comme dans l'Explorateur. • Écoute ta suite d'accords en entier, avec une tête de lecture qui suit l'accord en cours. • Joue le clavier directement, note par note. • Écoute la gamme de la tonalité choisie, note à note, dans sa forme harmonique quand elle est mineure. • Dans Transposer, compare à l'oreille : un bouton par tonalité. Les mêmes fonctions, à une autre hauteur. • Un interrupteur dans l'en-tête coupe le son quand tu préfères lire. Le son est calculé, pas enregistré. Aucun fichier audio, aucune connexion : l'app reste entièrement hors ligne, comme son analyse. Nouvelle identité, aussi. Harmonie prend la matière d'une partition gravée : un papier chaud, une encre bleu-noir, un accent de laiton. La couleur y est réservée au sens, elle ne sert plus qu'à dire le rôle d'un accord, tonique, sous-dominante ou dominante. Et deux écritures se partagent le travail : ce qui se joue d'un côté, ce qui s'analyse de l'autre. Le nom d'un accord et son chiffrage ne sont plus dans la même fonte, comme dans un traité. Nouvelle icône et nouvel écran de lancement, à l'avenant. ### 1.0 — 2026-07-30 No release notes. ## More apps by Aurelien Roblin - [GambitIQ - Chess Openings](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/gambitiq-chess-openings/id6794072428) - [Dépann](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/depann/id6794343503) - [Boxing Legend: Timer & Combos](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/boxing-legend-timer-and-combos/id6794886795) - [Kana Widget: Hiragana Quiz](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/kana-widget-hiragana-quiz/id6795061716) - [Vexillo - Quiz des drapeaux](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/vexillo-quiz-des-drapeaux/id6795067508) All apps by Aurelien Roblin: https://appshunter.io/developer/6794072430 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
