The Chord Wheel for Positive User Reviews
✓ Great tool for musiciansI was already using the "paper" version of this tool, which helps a lot in understanding scales, chords building, progressions, and the so important cycle of fifths. I am now very happy to have the Ipod version, so flexible and always available! Being able to hear the chords sound is also great. Richard M..Version: 1.0
✓ Not bad....This app is designed for intermediate and above level players. If you do not know how to find C, C7, Cmaj7, Cm, and Cm7 chords already, then I wouldn't bother with this app just yet. This app is designed to help you find those "breath of fresh air" chords which will help you resolve your progressions. This app will not tell you which notes are in a chord! So if anything, this app would be a hinderance to you. Learn all your notes on a piano and or guitar. Then learn the five previously mentioned chords/triads. Once you get a basic understanding of where all the chords are and how to find them, learn some basic progressions such as I-IV-V and III-VI-II-V-I. If you are not familiar with anything I just mentioned, then this app really won't help you much since you will still have to know where to find the chords on piano or guitar. With that being said, this app has really helped me resolve a few progressions I've been working on. I have found this app very useful..Version: 1.0
✓ Great appI'm so excited to see this app! For years I thought it should be easy to make an intuitive chord wheel app but couldn't find one that was easy to use and display all of the info I was looking for. The only thing it's missing is the note numbers in the scale. A lot of chord wheels online show a small Roman numeral to represent the chord number under the letter. That addition would make this a 5 star app. Edit: Go through the tutorial. You can zoom into the key signature.Version: 1.1.22
✓ Screen too small on iPadThis is an excellent app. It even plays the chords when you tap on them. Unfortunately on iPad the image is small and, for those of us with poor sight, is difficult to read. Enlarging the screen on iPad would make this a killer app..Version: 1.1.22
✓ Wheely GoodAfter getting to grips with the chord wheel I am now writing chart topping hits for Ned Sheeran, Duo Lipo, Traynor Swift and Leeds based indie pop sensation Defender. I’m a pretty big deal.Version: 1.1.22
✓ Needs to be updatedThis app is just what I needed to remember chord scales however this app Needs to be updated to support the new iOS.Version: 1.0
✓ Please Enable Rotate to Portrait ModeI bought the book and will find the app useful as well. I’m happy that the issue with the sound has been fixed but would like to be able to use the app in portrait mode. Landscape feels clunky and using the app in portrait wouldn’t mean the wheel is obstructed in any way. It’s just a circle. But the device you’re using would be more comfortable in hand..Version: 1.1.22
✓ LOVE IT!!!This app is great. Much more easier than just looking at the paper. But i would love for you guya to update this app. At least let it show you the minor scales of that scale and also to be able to show you the scales that you tap or double tap..Version: 1.0
✓ Thank youI love trying out different progressions. Thanks for including secondary dominant. Really great app to understand music..Version: 1.1.22
✓ NicePerfect, just what I needed. Great job!.Version: 1.0
✓ Fantastic!The real deal. This is the ORIGINAL! "Chord Wheel" finally brought to the iPhone. I've been using the original printed version of The Chord Wheel (published by Hal Leonard) for over three years, and this app version is even better! The guitar and piano chord voicings make it even more useful for noodling out pleasing new chord progressions for new songs. I'm using it on my iPad2 (with 2x scaling) and it works great, looks great! As a guitar-and-voice songwriter with absolutely no music theory background, I'd pretty much given up on myself ever learning music theory in this lifetime. Amazingly, The Chord Wheel is releasing me from the constraints of that limitation and making sense of it, as I noodle around creatively experimenting with new chord progressions for new songs. Unlike GarageBand, where I'm sometimes limited to a constrained subset of chords, Chord Wheel offers the full range of chords, they are all available, but there's a mapping that shows me what's going to work well together and why. Great app! Helps you bust out of your old habits and discover new musical combinations and progressions. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! A great creativity tool for any songwriter or musician!.Version: 1.0
✓ Wonderful app for vocalists and SolfègeI am vocalist who is trying to learn solfeggio. I purchased Jim Fleser's book, "The Chord Wheel", (published by Hal Leonard), and this app. LOVE them both. I sing in a choir, and have difficulty finding the lower harmony part, as I sing alto. My habit is to sing the melody, or soprano part. My whole reason for learning Solfège is to try to find and hit a lower, harmonizing note. The great thing about this app, for me, is that when I play the sequence of ascending notes in a scale, (each one a chord), I can hit the root note of the key. It is the fact that the scales ascend in chords that makes it easy for me to find my starting note. That is why I use this app, rather than a piano app, when I am singing with a choir. The book and app are great for trying to add solfeggio prompts to musical scores. For example, if I am in the key of D, I set the dial to the key of D. Then, I can see at a glance, that I - Do - D ii - Re - E iii - Mi - F sharp IV - Fa - G V - So - A vi - La - B vii - Ti - C sharp I also learned a lot about major scale diatonic 7ths. Thanks for the app!.Version: 1.0
✓ Works great.Great tool for songwriters and producers. I had the book for years and this is a million times better. Not sure what all the moaning is about from the other reviewers..Version: 1.1
✓ Brilliant ,really helpful app :-)A friend has the book version of this ...so thought I would give it a try ....5 star rating it's awesome !!! Really helpful in working out chord patterns ..only 2 slight things , you can't seem to play 2 keys at once and there is a slight delay when pressing a chord on a 3GS sure it's probably better on a 4 or 4gs ....Version: 1.0
✓ Great appNeat training aid that helps me transpose songs on the go. Handy to have as an app. Save me tremendous time transposing songs for band..Version: 1.1.22
✓ Not workingThanks for the update for iPhone 6. Works really well and sounds good too. Touch reaction on the wheel. Please keep updating with more features like the more technical aspects in the book..Version: 1.1
✓ Pretty Good Chord Wheel AppThis app is pretty good. It is rather expensive for what you get though, and it is always upside down on my iPad. Also, there is something wrong with the C chord, as it is strummed too slow on the guitar. I also have The Chord Wheel as a printed book, and there is more of an explanation of its use in the printed book, however, the book has no sound. The sound inclusion in the app makes it more useful, and it is less than half the price of the book, and I can use it on my iPod, iPad mini, or iPad Pro. So, all in all, it’s pretty good, but there is room for improvement..Version: 1.1.22
✓ What I was looking forI was looking for an app that could show me any chord progression in the major keys, and this was exactly the app that I was looking for. The play function is a little clunky on the app, but generally it works well and satisfied my expectations..Version: 1.0
✓ Great app - Simple and quickLove this app. It’s a very simple and quick way for someone who is not very clued up on music theory. Great for just figuring out what chords belong to what key. I use it all the time as a beginner musician. It’s works great on both IPhone and IPad. I am not sure what others are saying about the screen to small for iPad. You just click the bottom right corner to bring it to full screen..Version: 1.1.22
✓ Awesome, but...This is a great and simple-to-use app. My only complaints are the lack of a proper options page, e.g. font resizing for the explanation of the chord wheel, toggling the sound, etc. No complaints otherwise. The chord wheel itself is fantastic..Version: 1.1.22
✓ Clear easy to use interface.Chord information distilled into a simple to use graphical format..Version: 1.1.22
✓ Love it!!It's due for a major update!?! Export midi files!!!.Version: 1.0
✓ Works on my iPhone 6s+Looks like the developers fixed the issue some users were having. The app works fine on my iPhone 6s+. Great tool overall..Version: 1.1.22
✓ Fantastic tool!!Thank you for this great app.Version: 1.1.22
✓ Works awesome for me!I just bought it after having the book. At first I was worried with all the bad reviews, but an impulse had me go ahead and gamble the $6.99. Glad I did!! Cool..Version: 1.1
✓ Great appVery useful for me as an intermediate player who has been self-taught. I wonder why the VI (V of ii) 7, sus4 isn't also marked. Seems like it would be appropriate, but perhaps there is logic to its omission...? There's some latency in the chord playing but overall quite helpful!.Version: 1.0
✓ Works well! Better on iPad.Useful zoom feature gives overall look and then extra detail when zoomed in. Interesting information on the developers website also, check out the 'How it works' heading. Overall, worth the money I think as it saves me from having to remember all the information it shows, and the extra info on the website is very good..Version: 1.0
