ChordBank is the canonical reference for guitarists. Look up tens of thousands of guitar chords, hand-curated by pros, to play any song, in any key.

CHORDS YOU CAN TRUST

ChordBank is the most comprehensive chord library on the App Store.

These aren't some auto-generated bunch of fingerings that will stretch your fingers beyond recognition. Each chord in ChordBank is hand-curated by experts to be comfortable to play, and musically sound.

GO DEEPER WITH GENIUS

Wonder what a Cm9 chord actually is? Tap the "Genius" button under any chord for a note-by-note explanation, with links to videos that make music theory simple to understand.

GO FURTHER WITH TOOLS

Tools like variable-speed backing tracks and playalongs, a metronome packed with features, and advanced Sonic AI flashcards and games that listen as you play make ChordBank an essential part of any player's practice routine. Whether you're right or left-handed, whether you use standard note names or solfege, ChordBank fits your playing.

From multi-angle video lessons on chords, scales, and gear, to theory-laden practice tools to build chord progressions and write songs. ChordBank is a guitarist's essential companion, for pros and beginners alike.

REVERSE CHORD FINDER

Our Reverse Chord Finder has been completely rebuilt on top of ChordBank's canonical theory library. Tap the fretboard to lock in the chord you're playing on your real guitar. ChordBank will search thousands of possible chords to tell you what chords those notes make up, even if it's not a perfect match.

Plus, you can now add Reverse Chord Finder chords to your saved chord collections, and ChordBank will automatically suggest where to put your fingers to make each chord easier to play.

SCALES FOR DAYS

We've always had CAGED patterns for scales, but we've added the Three Note per String (3NPS) system popular among more advanced players. Coupled with new scale types like Bebop and new modal scales like Phyrgian Dominan and Lydian Minor, there are thousands of new ways to play scales up and down the neck.

PRACTICE TOOLS TO PLAY AND PLAY

Practice any scale with drills that play at the speed that works for you. Ascend, descend, move in groups of three. Master scale patterns at the pace that works for you.

Plus, backing backing tracks let play at the speed that's comfortable for you. Or tap a tempo into our metronome, then set a countdown timer to keep you motivated as you practice.

Great but could be better.

My ISSUES with this app are how fixatedand locked in the fretboard it looks on smaller screens like old iPhones and even X size ones. You should have the ability to see all the note son the fretboard and move them freely all the time. Pressing again and again can be annoying. There should be a selecting feature for this or free scrolling

2. The explorer feature is great but it wont let you add the chord to your saved directly making it a hassle!!!!

3. Overall, this app is great. You can find the chords you didn’t know you needed or existed. I hope these two little things get fixed. They are my main issues other than that no crashes or anything much.

Amazing

I’ve actually used this app for years and finally decided to write a review. I am not even using the most up-to-date version but this app has proven to be amazing time and time again. I was just using the chord finder feature where you can tap on the fretboard and create the chord that you are playing and it will tell you the best options for what it actually is.
You’ve got all the scales and modes and backing tracks to go along with them. It generally has a great interface and I can’t imagine all the work it took to put this together. It’s been a huge asset for me. Thank you developers!

Great App … but

This app I great especially for beginner and intermediate guitarists. The chord library is extensive and covers the entire fretboard. I haven’t used the scales or other features as yet.
My only concern is cost. If there were a one time cost that’s reasonable I would pay it. I won’t pay for a subscription because there’s so much I wouldn’t use. I might use the scales, but I don’t need to pay for backing tracks, games, lessons and reverse chord finder. Chords and maybe scales for a reasonable one time fee and I’d buy it, but a subscription for $5/ month or even $40 yearly is too much for what I’d use. Kind of sad because it’s a beautiful app. Maybe the developer will reconsider and offer two different options. I hope so.
