Note that the version as at Mon11feb13 does not work with Nexus 7 and Nexus 10. When you a choose chord you always get back a Blank Screen. It appears to work on Android 2.3.5 phone. Pity. Gave 2 stars as probably its quite good from other comments.

I tried this app several times and got the Google results, however, they were not imported or incorporated into the program, despite numerous attempts. If anyone has any suggestions as to get better results, I am willing to listen. And, May be willing to revise my rating:.

This is one of the best app ever. I have finally found what I was looking for. Thanks you you are a life saver. One last thing if we could save the chords and music into an account in case we switch phone or when our phone has been reset it would be PERFECT because we won't have to look for all the songs we have saved before. Anyway thanks a lot for this app

About this app

Search the web for guitar chord charts to your favorite songs. Then, Chord Reader will automatically analyze the chords and allow you to transpose, add a capo, etc. It's great for guys like me with a limited vocal range.

You can also click a chord to see the suggested guitar fingering. Multiple fingerings are shown, with the most common one first.

Additionally, you can import your own chord charts into Chord Reader. Simply copy the files you want (in plain text format) from your computer to the "/sdcard/chord_reader" folder.

This is free and open-source software, so any bug reports or contributions are appreciated.

Rock on, fellow Android guitarists!
