At first, I was a bit skeptical, and it turns out that I should've trusted my gut. You only get 3 free songs, then after that, boom, "Give me your money." (< not an actual quote) Every single feature on the app is premium. On top of that, the chords for the three songs I've played are highly inaccurate and the timing doesn't match the song at all. It's late, then it switches to another chord when the key stays the same in the song.
Reviews for Chordify: Song Chords & Tuner
← Back to Chordify: Song Chords & TunerI read an overall negative review on this app, and guess what? Pretty much exactly as they described. Three songs, rest locked behind a paywall. I "chordified" a song, and the timing was off, and it didn't do half of the chord progressions and changes that was in the song. Pretty disappointing since I thought I was finally going to be able to play a bisbâyé song since no tabs for any of their songs exist.
The interface is really, really difficult if you're just starting or don't want to/can't listen as you play. There's no way to just read the chords as you play - it only plays the song and flashes the chords as it goes, and doesn't show lyrics at all. Too game-ified to be useable. Also it's also NOT FREE - if there isn't a free version beyond a 3-song trial, say that up front and don't pretend there's a "pro" version. I'd be glad to pay if they were actually honest about their paid service.
Chordify is musician's BFF. When I come across a Pandora or Spotify track worth playing, I find it and fulfill the wish. Studio, concert, and cover tracks are available from same search. When I was the first Chordify member ever to have chosen a particular song, Chordify analyzed and auto-generated the song before my eyes within a minute! 1 suggestion: Chordify is 95% accurate, and I would like to offer occasional chord revision. (My caveat by no means detracts from 5-star stellar rating.)
As a music/guitar teacher I'm always looking for apps that can help my students. I decided to do the year discounted subscription. With all the features available through the subscription that I didn't have before, I really like this app, and so do my students. There is a huge selection of songs, backing tracks, and even song tutorials with tabs. The best feature for students is that you can slow the tempo of the song so you can play along. A great app for learning chord progressions for songs!
Great app! it has issues, but overall it's good and support is helpful. Without the premium subscription it can be annoying with adds and you can only play 4 songs a day. If you could do more without the premium plan, this would be an amazing app. I started using it and it boosted my skills a ton. I got the premium and it made it easier and made me better. it's good, but having to pay in order to play more than 4 songs makes learning a LOT slower. would have given five stars otherwise.
disappointed... I bought the year subscription, thinking this would be a great way to learn more songs to play on Ukulele, but it's literally just a chord reader that guesses at chords to songs it pulls off of YouTube. it doesn't even show you where the chords are in relation to the song your playing. and if you transpose the songs, the music doesn't transpose along with it, so you play chords that don't match with the music. there are free apps out there that are way better than this.
Love this app but there is one really annoying issue that has plagued it. It started a long time ago (just didn't reported). After a song, I try to switch to another, and almost always get a RETRY message. 'Sorry, the rest of your Library failed to load. Please check your internet connect and retry'. I have no issues with my Internet connection. Most often, I have to restart the app and the library loads immediately. Otherwise this app is great and I would give a 5 if not for this issue
Great app for practicing and learning new chords. I like that I can select chords that I want to practice, and it will suggest songs that incorporate those chords that I can play along with and save those tracks in a favorite list. I can slow the tempo, skip around as needed,and set up a loop for hitting those sections I'm having a tough time with. App has a pretty good set of tools as well, like tuner, metronome, chord map, and live chord detection through your phone mic. Worth it !
The app is basically filled to the brim with ads. On multiple occasions when I try learning a song, it would shove an ad in my face for about 5 seconds. Which would be completely fine if it didn't kick me out of the song every time I click it out, causing me to have to click the song and repeat the process over and over again, making the song practically inaccessible. And the moment I DO finally get in, the chords are way off. SMH.
I hate to leave a bad review, but it simply just won't load any songs. This app is great, and without premium, it is fine, I would like it if you guys considered 5 songs free per day. It would help with my music courses for sure. It's great for piano and guitar. It has tons of songs. The problem right now is that the songs will pop up but will be gray, and when you try to play them, they just won't go. It stays black, and the song doesn't play. Please fix this soon!
This used to be my favorite app for learning songs up until about a week ago, when it became so laggy and full of bugs that it was unusable at times. Song synchronization only works when it feels like it, the search function only works half the time, and sometimes the app just won't let you play the song, and instead keeps you on the search results page.
The worst kind of greed, with endless long commercials, every click to try anything is blocked because, even if I wait for the commercial to be over, the app throws me back to the previous screen, I click again, commercial again. Are you trying to keep users away on purpose? just wanted to try your app for a few minutes. Wow ... years of apps haven't prepared be to such onslaughts of commercials. good luck with that.
if I could give this app more starts I would. while the upload feature can be hit or miss, And playability can change, thus making playlists very frustrating. I still love the format on my PC or Phone. I've self taught for years, and even before going all in as a "prime member" it was worth using the free 1 song trial per day. I used that trial for years before actually upgrading, but the bottom line is this. When I did, I've improved as a guitarist. so skip the ads, and play ⏯️
this app...... this is it. I learned how to play bass guitar with this app. Yep, I knew 5 songs and had to follow my notes to play them. It's been over 3 years & I believe that I am a decent bass player bc of several things: Cortify, +, the time I've invested, my natural talent in spotting patterns, & attention to detail. using Cordify is a ton of fun, as well. Sure there are a few things I find annoying but... when does that not happen? I am a premium member. it makes a difference.
Amazing variety!! I cannot believe how (because of the YouTube search synchronization) I can find even obscure songs and be the first to "chordify" them. Honestly the software which listens to the tracks and plots the chords is impressive, and the lyrics in many cases play along, on top of showing the next few chords you're supposed to play. Are the chords 100% accurate? No, but I'd say 92%, and with a guitar and a good ear you can tweak them to figure out what sounds better. Overall Love It!
Phenomenal App! Outstanding. But, the advertising is too intrusive. Whole - page adverts, with no way to get back to the app. I want to give you 5 Stars and understand that you need to pay the bills, but remember, we have our volume turned up to learn a song. Having a war game advert blasting at me, is over the top. Can you look at quieter adverts and tell me how to get to the app? There is no skip or "X" to quit. It just keeps on going. Compromise... Please!
I have to start out by saying that for quite a few years now and I've kind of struggled with Ultimate Guitar even with its tools and everything. And oddly enough while practicing using ultimate guitar the ad for chordify came up I downloaded the app, and almost immediately my abilities playing guitar skyrocketed. And I guarantee it is because of the way it is set up for the chords to scroll by along with the actual song and not a horrible rendition of it that's clearly made by a computer program
I absolutely love this app for everything rhythm!! I've NEVER typed in a single song that wasn't there, and it's actually very accurate as far as chords go. they'll use a different voicing more than being actually wrong! But, the other tools that came along with it are extremely useful, setlists, import from YouTube, or your device, accurate tuner, and a chord search that finds songs based on chords you enter!! great place to learn songs! ✌️
$40+ a year for an app that's down more than it's up. It's about time to save some money and uninstall this train wreck. There was an update pushed out the day after this review, and as you can see, a contact from the developers, which was in less than 24 hrs. Hopefully, they get it back on track because I do like the format as someone with no formal music training/education. Upping my stars for the fast response!
