1. ★★★★★paid but content never unlocked

   Paid to unlock, still waiting. Paid to unlock the frets, almost a week ago. Hasn’t unlocked, hasn’t posted my previous review, hasn’t contacted me about a refund, or solving the problem. DON’T SPEND ANY NONEY ON THIS APP!!!!!!!!

2. ★★★★★aggressive paid unlocks

   SCAM! Beware!. This app is a complete and total rip off. It charges you 10 bucks to "unlock" 9th chords etc..Ok, overpriced but OK. THEN After that, you try to move the chord up the neck and I don't know that's another $7.99 to "unlock the neck." this is absolute highway robbery. Absolutely ridiculous no reason to do it whatsoever. Just stay away from this ripoff!!

3. ★★★★★aggressive paid unlocks

   It’s not $2.99. If you want to see all the chords it forces you to pay much more, too expensive, $2.99 should be total. How do I get the free version ?

4. ★★★★★missing voicing types and alternate tunings

   Playing in position. I thought this app was going to be my saving grace to help me find and play chords in a single position to get better at playing the chord changes at one position of the fret board but it moves you all around the fret board when you change the chord.

5. ★★★★★missing voicing types and alternate tunings

   Limited to drop-2 chord voicings. The app only addresses drop-3 chord voicings. The app is otherwise very well executed, but that limitation cripples it. Drop-2 voicings (e.g., R 7 3 5) must be included if you want 4-5 stars. Drop 2&4 voicings (e.g., R 5 3 7) would be nice to have as well, but are not as important as the other voicings.

6. ★★★★★metronome and chord progression playback

   Awesome app!. This is hands down the best chord app out there. I love the built in metronome feature, super helpful.

7. ★★★★★metronome and chord progression playback

   One of the best guitar apps.. Amazing app! Looks and sounds great. Very interactive and has very special features. You can save your favorite chords and the built-in metronome/chord progression feature is pretty awesome, I haven’t seen that in any of the other apps. It’s worth the in-app purchase to get all of the chords, but even the free version has way more options than other apps. Thanks so much for making this available to the world!

8. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

   5 stars for this app. So far this is the best app I used, keep up the good work and upgrades .

9. ★★★★★no bookmarks for favorite chords

   Love it But…. I would really appreciate being able to “like” certain chord voicings so that I may reference them more quickly as there are so many to go through. this is not a complaint but a suggestion in hopes of a feature I would find very helpful. Thank you

10. ★★★★★no bookmarks for favorite chords

    As simple or comprehensive as you want. Fantastic app!! I really like the ability to set it up as simple as possible, particularly when starting out, but then have the option to widen the chord options to an amazing 100k! My only wish is that there was a way to “bookmark” chords that become our go-to chords for quick access. Somehow be able to filter out only the ones we’ve selected for practice and such would be a home run. Otherwise, excellent job!

11. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Mike. This app is very practical and a great reference! I used to have this huge book that wasn’t even as thorough and comprehensive. I highly recommend this app.

12. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Great UX, comprehensive library. I have only used the free version of this app so far, and I am impressed. For free, you get many voicing of all the chords you will commonly find in music of most genres. The interface is deceptively simple in the way you only see when the developer has put a lot of work into clarifying it. You can see the notes of the chords as frets, pitches, or intervals. You can hear the notes as a chord or an arpeggio. You can cycle through chord variants in a very logical way. It’s really nice. Some reviews have commented on the price of upgrades, but seriously :) You get a very useful app for free, and the devs deserve to be paid for their work. They aren’t going to make nearly as many sales as a “$0.99 gem pack” in a freemium game would, so they have to charge more. Make your own cost / benefit decision. Time for the crazy wish list part of the review! Support for alternate tunings and capos would be nice. It would be amazing to be able to pick a key and see the notes of a given chord as intervals relative to the key. Scales and arpeggios would be amazing, but might need a new app. Another killer feature would be finding chords that are easy to move between. Something like, “What is the G variant most similar to this particular C variant?” Another idea is to pick chords into a progression, and then play them in a loop, or with a metronome. Thanks for the great app!

13. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Excellent and super practical!. Simple to use and practical for guitar learners like me!

14. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Perfect!. I wish I had this app when I was learning years ago but it is so well made and a great tool for teaching, learning, and growing as a guitar player. This app is perfect!

15. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Just what I needed!. Super helpful and really beautiful app! Who knew there were so many ways to play a C chord?

16. ★★★★★aggressive paid unlocks

    Guitar chord dictionary tool box is amazing. This is awesome. Shows the different inversions of chords. One drawback is that it does not show the fingering for chords, but it is relatively easy to figure out the fingering. Getting the additional feature of seeing extensions is pretty costly, it with any good software, there is a price associated with quality. Everything considered, it is worth it and if the cost of buying the extensions is too much, a google search should produce the same results.

17. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Simply the Best. This is by far the best guitarist’s chord dictionary out there. It’s so comprehensive that’s it’s truly mind boggling. It is the ideal companion for everyone, beginner to seasoned master. Congrats!

18. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Dopppppeeeeeeee. Helped me learn the guitar after years of struggling. Owe it all to this app 🙌🏽

19. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Best app for learning chords!. Amazing app for learning guitar chords !!

20. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Superb Functionality and Content. Wow! Best new app I’ve tried in forever. So fun to move between different chords and inversions so easily and hear them out loud at the same time. Great for adding vocabulary but also just exploring new harmonic ideas. I also love that I can seamlessly format the chords for bass as well. Five stars!

21. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    VERY thorough and applicable app. Ever inversion, voicing, and fingering for any chord you can think of. I am a bass player and can use the first 4 string setting to figure out voicings and arpeggios for my instrument. Extremely helpful.

22. ★★★★★metronome and chord progression playback

    A true handbook. The perfect app for anytime you want to work through a chord progression, or just want to strum some chords!

23. ★★★★★missing voicing types and alternate tunings

    Great for the jazz guitarist. There aren't many apps like this, and none so well designed and intuitive. Immediately useful for working on chord melodies. By being able to select the string set, inversion, and seeing the scale degree or note, you are able to quickly get a good sounding chord. It could be improved with extensions and substitutions, but that might also clutter things up.

24. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Great. Awesome app! Easy to use! Super helpful for songwriters to get more color in their songs! Well done! :)

25. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    A go-to guitar app. Finally a streamlined app for quick reference. Definitely useful for any level of guitarist

26. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Great tool!!. I'm really looking forward to working with and learning more from this cool app!

27. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    well down and though out!. In print form this would be pages and pages and cost over $15 dollars. Guitar Handbook is very intuitive and you could spend hour on the app and never get bored! Nice work!!!

28. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Best guitar app yet!. Organized, fun, informative a easy to use!

29. ★★★★★chord library and voicings

    Excellent. Really good app, clean and easy to use, A*

30. ★★★★★metronome and chord progression playback

    Cool App. Great tool for voice leading. Make your progression and then start scrolling thru inversions or root positions until you find the one that sounds good. Teaches you new voicing at the same time. Very useful
