5/5The most important tool for a guitarist possible
This is the smartest tool I’ve ever seen not just in apps, but all across the internet, books, everything. The chord analyzer and chord finder sections compliment and work together fluidly and perfectly. The fact that you can click on strings and build chords that you may have played on the guitar and don’t know what they may be, or why they sound good to you, is a feature that even allows you to understand your own playing, and no tool or website can rival that. In addition, when looking up any chord in the list of chords, you can see it intelligently in every inversion, and you can also turn on arpeggio, and it’ll show the arpeggios relative to the chords your playing, and they are displayed slightly less prominently to the chord. That’s brilliant. It has saved me hundreds of hours of web searching and googling to answer simple questions. The visual design of this app is so simple, streamlined and genius, I don’t think anything rivals it. There’s also a button to sound any chord you create by selecting notes on the fretboard, and this app has even become something I can use to study music when I don’t have a guitar, like on an airplane. This app is so perfect, I honestly hope it never changes and is available for all foreseeable future. I’m blown away. I personally would count it as the best guitar app created to date, and possibly one of the greatest apps created of all time next to Shazam and Juxtaposer. It’s completely in a class of its own, there’s nothing to compare it to. If I had to, I would buy it 100x over. If you’re a guitarist you should have this immediately and it should be where mine is, on my first page of apps on my phone. To the designers and developers, a standing ovation. When I have new students, the first thing I do is make them buy this app, sometimes even before buying a guitar. This little app was birthed from pure brilliance.

5/5The tool that teaches
Like other reviewers here, I used this online regularly and was thrilled to see it as a stand-alone app. It’s great because you can approach a chord from seeing/hearing inversions on the fly, or from forming your own and having its “tonal makeup” appear as you create it (where is the root, is there a lower 3rd or raised 5 etc) so it teaches you. In that regard you can go deep into the “description” field to really break out what’s happening. To top it off, the UX is one of my favorites, very intuitive and organized for the guitarist. My one gripe is that I could not get the app to show an 7aug or a m9b5? I think that probably falls into enharmonic equivalents, but I wish I could ask the developer what I’m missing?

5/5Super impressed, excited to learn!
(Edited below) Extremely informative, great ui, and makes theory kinda fun! I’m always creating chords and wondering what they are and how they relate to each other, and this app helps me understand. My only request is for features of chord progressions to be added, as the web version already has. Other than that, amazing work! Edit: PLEASE add a chord library/option to save progressions to the app! Only 9 slots to save chords are available, but if we were able to save different progressions into folders to access later and/or save specific fingerings for chords we like, it would take this app to the next level!!!

5/5BUY. THIS. APP. NOW.
I have been using the webpage Oolimo for years and have been waiting on the app for just as long. As a songwriter, it has helped me identify chords I “made up” or find chords I’ve been looking for. It is hands down the best application for guitar chords, bar none. There is so much I love about Oolimo that I can’t list it all here. The price for this app is an absolute steal and I would gladly pay 50 times the price for what this app can do. No question. If you play guitar, you NEED this app.

4/5Very good but don’t get rid of your other chord books
This is a very good application but it does have some shortcomings. Here is one I found. A 7♭5 chord is very common in the Latin stuff I play but don’t try to find it in his application because it’s not there. He calls it a 7#11. Take the key of G as an example. When you go into the chord finder and look for a G7♭5 you will find nothing and when you click in the notes in the chord analyzer that chord name does not come up on the list. It should since this is a common chord name. But my trusty Mel Bay chord book has it. Fix this problem. Players will relate to a flatted 5th way more than a sharped 11th

Several methods to choose from (help > problems with audio...) may help in case of problems with audio playback. - Last chord and settings (chord name options, notes/intervals,...) are kept stored now. - Selected key button or chord shape thumbnail are scrolling automatically to center position (as far as scrolling is possible). - Question 2 in quiz "V7, m7 and maj7 chords": right answer was rated as incorrect and a wrong solution was shown. Fixed. - Diminished chord (dim7/dim) in the chord analyzer: now correct indication of the diminished 7th as dim7 instead of 6 on fretboard. Correct/enharmonic notename with "super correct button" (allows bb,##,Cb,Fb,B#,E#). - In the chord finder (on the fretboard) the diminished 7th is consequently and unmistakably indicated as dim7 instead of b7 (that may cause confusion with a minor 7th). - and as always other small fixes, modifications and improvements that can't be mentioned in detail.
