Used to be a great app. They took the slick, 3D looking display and flattened it to resemble something from 10 years ago. The chord finder is clunky and the graphics wig out; I end up with two pages of the chord finder tool displaying on the same screen at the same time. The main interface is more cluttered and more difficult to follow. Not sure what they were thinking with the "facelift" but it's more of a "face plant".

I bought this hoping to easily find chords in alternate and open tunings but what I got was an exercise in frustration. I don't want to enter fingerings I made up in, say, CGCGCD, to find out what chord it is. I want to enter Dm and find fingerings for it! There's a FREE website that does this but I don't always have an internet connection.

Haven't had this on my phone in a while because it was just outdated and the layouts weren't great. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the app and I was greeted with a new layout. Same app, just different placement of UI elements and I really like it! Good job!

This used to be great, it used to fit on my tablet and used to have a color scheme that doesn't make me want to scratch my eyes out. Hell it even used to show the note progression of scales which was useful for learning. Now it seems like the Dev made a bunch of bad decisions on a coke bender lately. Not sure what the hell I paid for with this as now it's no better than the free options.

I liked this app very much -- it presents the information I need in a clean usuable way. Very flexible with great options. HOWEVER, one significant flaw -- I really need the ability to label notes with scale degree rather than letter. It's a lot more useful to me to know where the third or the fifth is rather than the letter names of the notes. That small addition would make this a five star, use every day, app.

It's pretty sweet but the screen doesn't fit my phone , turbo 2 , and there's no half diminished cords. Also didn't have all scales.
