What's New in Piano Chords, Scales Companion

6.109.728

July 28, 2026

Chord and scale names appear in your own language — 12 languages, including Traditional Chinese and European Portuguese. Note names match how you learned them — C-D-E, Do-Re-Mi or До-Ре-Ми — chosen automatically from your language. Progression playback sounds smoother and more musical, with automatic close voicing and a fuller bass. Guided setup is faster and clearer, with fewer interruptions on first launch. Scale and chord lists sort correctly in your language, plus stability improvements and bug fixes. Love our app? Please rate us - each vote is very important for us!

Response from developer

Sorry to hear that! Could you provide more details on support@songtive.com - we will be happy to assist.

ありえない

アプリ内購入だったのがいつの間にかサブスクに移行していて値段も爆上げ。ギターのコードも表示出来なくなっているし、内蔵楽器も音が鳴らないうえに選べないバグも放置されたまま。なぜストアに残っているのか理解できない。

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback, and sorry for the frustration. Just to clarify — the app has never supported guitar chords, only piano chords and scales. We’re also continuing to work on stability and bug fixes to improve the experience. If you have any questions - feel free to contact us: support@songtive.com
