8 Positive User Reviews for The Chord Wheel

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.

Please Enable Rotate to Portrait Mode

I 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.

Great app

I'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

Great app

Neat training aid that helps me transpose songs on the go. Handy to have as an app. Save me tremendous time transposing songs for band.

Great chord wheel

I love this and it’s helped me write creative chord progressions. Recommended for all musicians and songwriters. Would be nice if you could add the modes like that dial a note circle of fifths turn thingy on amazon.

Nice but a few bum guitar chords

The wheel is a helpful layout for writing simple major/minor progressions. Piano sounds are bold and in tune, and sustain for two good legato whole notes while you consider the next chord. However, some of the guitar chords are well out of tune, and one or two of the diminished 7ths are downright wrong on guitar. But the majority are OK. I stick with the piano. This would be excellent tool if there was a simple way to toggle any chord to and from its 7th, 6th, sus4, or 2nd/9th — or maybe add t

Ugly and disappointingo

I have the book in front of me. I paid $7.39 for it on Amazon, including shipping. This app is not the book. The menu is crude, the tutorial is far more brief than the book and none of the images are scaled for my ipad air2 resolution, resulting in very pixelated background and menus. The menu icons are ever present and there's some silly option for a zoom 1x or 2x which doesn't zoom at all - but zooms out to an even smaller resolution. The options don't save and the sound clips for many of

No Sound - but still useful for transposition

I loved this app when I first got it. But now The sound does not work on my iPhone 6, and it appears the app and the website are no longer being updated. But the wheel still turns, so it's still useful for transposition and, to a lesser extent composing. You just can't use it to listen to chord combinations. It's kind of like the app has been reduced to an iBook.
