Reviews for Chordbot

It is an amazing app. The variety of chords available plus inversions makes it unique compared to other similar apps. Unfortunately, it does not have the usual, more common styles in terms of rythm. I will, as a result, give it 3 out of five. When it includes the more conventional styles, I will give […]

The concept for this app is “spot on” perfect. The execution is a little lacking. For instance, all the instruments sound like an appegiated piano with some small differences. e.g. Electric Guitar sounds nothing like an electric guitar. Change the settings for Chorus/Reverb have not discernable change. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S21. Maybe […]

Finally an app that let’s me create back tracks to improvise on! Thank you very much for that! However on future updates I would like to have more choices in the chords data base (been looking for add9 chords and did not find it) or an option that lets you build up your own chords. […]

A touch to play mode would be very useful, as in make a pallet of chords and tap them to play, drag to rearrange, etc. As it is, it has a tendency to slow down the composition process, because it needs to start playing everytime. Lots of great options for playback, but only if you […]

By far the best app yet for chord progressions ( that i am aware of) and it’s ability to create songs and form songs that you can transfer to midi or whatever format you prefer in your daw, where you can then take your ideas to a new level, been using it for years, wish […]

The app is great. You could build up a backing track in a snap. There are quite a few pointers though. 1. There are no Intros, Outros, nad fill-ins. I hope you add that soon. 2. If ur editing the instruments in track mode, and somehow accidentally switch to song mode, the other tracks would […]

This is the best yet still the cheapest app in the store. Just a suggestion to the developer, Include some lead guitar riffs, drum rolls and some violin leads in your next upgrades. Recently there has been an issue with the different track option for different sections. I only exported one track and the next […]

This is a great app, nice simple interface and does a great job of playing chords. There is one change that would make a huge difference. If, when selecting the scale degree in the left panel (ABC etc.) chordbot defaulted to selecting the major, minor or diminished that was in key. That way you could […]

I’m just getting to know this app but one thing I think it should have in addition to what is there now. A new page that is basically a flow-chart of established built-in progression choices. You pick the key you want to use, then you pick a progression from the list, such as 6-4-1-5 or […]

Fantastic app overall! Really helped me get my musical ideas out quickly. I love how detailed it is. However, I do have some suggestions to improve it further. Firstly, the audio runs way too quiet. I have to max out the volume on any device I use it on to get it to acceptable listening […]

Used the “plain pop” preset. Chordbot immediately came up with an awesome chord progression, so I tweaked all the instruments just right, added drums and bass, then realized “hey this sounds awfully familiar”. Turns out Chordbot wrote Love is a Battlefield. Same chords in the same key. Great app, but I don’t think I’ll be […]

I got this when I didn’t think inversions mattered and didn’t know modal music existed. The more I learn about theory, the more I appreciate it! It’s aware of your key and can handle any mode, not just major or minor. You can change your inversions and immediately compare. I’m just learning about tonicized stuff; […]

Absolutely fantastic. Make the best music the easiest way possible. Make any song with any chord, any scale, any tempo in a flash. Lots of instrument sounds that blend well. Best way to make basic demo backing track for singing. Note: This is more piano based. There are piano, drumbs, synth, bass, and some effects […]

I wish it still had a dark interface–a theme option would be awesome–but ChordBot is still my favorite progression building app. Unlike most others, it offers multutracked instrumentation so that I dont have to just try to imagine how a piece might sound played by anything other than a piano. Lots of chord types plus […]

I paid in full for this app way back in 2014. This app is great for songwriting on the go and studio prep. The MIDI export option can get you files that you can edit in your fully fledged DAW for more hands on control after you’ve charted everything out. continues to be a great […]

This is a very professional app! It has helped me kickoff several projects. In most cases I export the tracks as wav and go directly into Voloco for laying down vocals. One issue I have found with more elaborate arrangements is that when I export as midi and attempt to import in FL Studio Mobile, […]

damn near perfect app. it could use a few extra features. for example, would be nice to be able to choose different strum and drum patterns for different sections! also would be nice to have a play/pause widget in the notification bar since the music keeps playing in the background. otherwise it’s amazing for songwriting! […]

What a great app! So many options. I’ve already created a song I am so happy with. Every setting is easily in reach and it comes with a help section if needed. You get to choose your tempo, time signature, song key, instruments, reverb and instrument playing style. Bonus, you can even export your song […]

This is exactly what I was looking for. An easy and intuitive way to try out weird and unconventional chord progressions without having to look each one up and learn to play one by one! Giving 5 stars because I’ve had a lot of fun and will get a lot of use out of this […]

Wonderful tool for songwriting. My only quip is that while it is great to be able to save your ideas, on occasion, the arrangements one has set can end up being recalled incorrectly. For example, you build a song with 10 sections and each section is different, you save it but upon opening it again, […]
