Knowing harmony doesn’t mean you can react fast enough. On stage, while improvising, transcribing, composing, arranging, or taking an exam, there’s no time to stop and work it out. Chord Degree isn’t a music theory reference. It’s a high-speed chord and scale-degree reflex trainer for every musician. Whatever your instrument or experience level, from beginners to working professionals and seasoned players, focused two-way training turns chord-to-degree and degree-to-chord recognition into an automatic response. Train with standard practice, timed challenges, ii-V-I drills, and essential chord progressions. The unique match-3 game mode makes repetition more engaging, less tedious, and easier to stick with. Built-in statistics combine practice volume, accuracy, and response speed to show your proficiency in every key. Mistakes and weak areas are tracked automatically, so every session has a clear purpose. It doesn’t train how much you know. It trains how fast you can use it when it matters. No account required. No ads. Try it free, then unlock unlimited training with a subscription or one-time purchase. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
