ChordBank: Learn Guitar Chords
authentic ratingIt is a reliable chord reference with an extensive library across the whole fretboard, the CAGED approach, and practice for switching between chords, and many use it for years. But people are angry about the move to subscriptions: things they once bought for life or as a one-off, like reverse chord lookup and the scales section, are now locked behind a yearly charge, and old purchases will not restore on a new device. There are gaps in the library and finicky guitar detection through the mic without an external audio interface.
Reviews are concrete and to the point: extensive chord library across the whole fretboard, the CAGED approach, but missing E-string barre major seventh chords and old purchases dropping. The high textAvg 4.1 with storeAvg 4.7 honestly matches the content, with no sign of inflation.
