This is the best guitar scale & chord reference app I've found, and believe me I've tried a few!Great for beginners and useful for advancing guitarists as a quick reference guide.Chords, scales, modes, inversions, a chord calculator, this app has everything you need. The songwriter feature is great for trying out chord progressions during those moments when inspiration strikes and you don't have a guitar to hand. The developer is super responsive, I suggested a potential new feature and lo, it was in the next release.Talking of releases, the app is regularly updated and is constantly improving.If I could give it 6 stars I would!
5 star app

Not great

The website said that the songwriter 'is a tool to allow you to explore scales and the chords that go together in those scales'. What it does is list the notes in a scale. The scales are not demonstrated on the fretboard, only the chord that you choose is shown on the fretboard. I would not have purchased this app if i had known. Misleading and kind of pointless if you can't see the relationship between chord and scale. There are better apps. Maybe this app will be updated in the future.

Seems to be a very comprehensive app with lots of tools for guitarists. Have yet to work out how to use all but even just the chords are a good resource tool.
Minor bug fix for Modes
