Ratings and reviews

Great app! It's so useful to have a collection of tools like this in one place. I really like the ability to flip between viewing notes/chords on a staff, piano, and guitar fretboard. And as a lefty, being able to flip the guitar fretboard around is super helpful. One thing that would make it even better is to somehow integrate chord inversions and different chord voicings, w/ ability to hear & see them visually represented on staff/piano/fretboard. I'll add a plus to my 5* for that 😄.

Five stars, great app, I use it all the time in my songwriting. I was on the free version till today because I only buy apps with a one-time price -- I don't do recurring payments. So, thanks for adding that option. Only one minor issue: since buying the full version, the app randomly turns completely white with no usable screens. I force stopped it, cleared cache and data, reinstalled; it still does it. Just as randomly it starts working normally again, so I can live with it! ETA: Fixed itself

Useful app for reinforcement of music theory, quick references (with the means to try out the concepts) and expand your knowledge. You need to have some theory background, as it's not a teaching course in and of itself. Though you can learn more with it to enhance your knowledge of theory, as well as fill in some blanks. It covers a wide range of "tools" that may be a single app from other sources. It's like a complete toolbox. Kudos to the developer of this app.
