More About Piano Chord, Scale, Progressio

Piano Companion is a piano chords and scales dictionary with user libraries and reverse mode with a chord progression builder. Our free app has circle of fifths with compatible chords (or chord wheel). Using circle of fifths and chord progression builder you can compose songs and learn, play chords and scales. You can compose music using our real piano and use your MIDI keyboard to play and record songs. It helps you to learn music theory too.
If you can’t remember the name of a chord or scale, this app helps you to find it by keys (or MIDI keyboard). For example, just press C, G and you will get C Major as the first chord in the search result. If you don’t see a chord, you can create a custom chord and use it for chord charts or your user library.

The Piano Companion app shows chord and scale notes, degrees, fingering for both hands in major and minor scales – and you can contribute your own custom fingering too. Additionally, you can listen how a scale or chord sounds in the loop or arpeggiated and other music theory information. You can see the list of compatible chords in the selected scale or list of compatible scales for a selected chord.

I've always had a passion for musical instruments recently started learning piano/keyboard everything is self taught pandemic got us mentally depressed but learning new things make this time just little bearable. The app really help learning to read notes and understanding the theory side. The best thing about the app is that it's a lifetime purchase.

Excellent tool, useful and well made. I would definitely pay for for a premium version but the subscription is not justified. I had the Year subscription to support the development. There haven't been any single update and after a year the price is now too expensive and the free version too limited.

Hello the custom library in pro version seems not working. I can not transfer the chords in the custom library. The phone also reports a bug and tries to debug with no success. Can you please fix it or let me know how to transfer chords in custom library. If this is workings, the app is good.

I've been searching for an app like this for a long time! I can finally make some chord progressions with ease at the phone and export to have fun later in my computer's DAW! Just be warned: it doesn't allow to save nor export unless you purchase the pro version.

This app need to support notch and full screen compatibility. To the max the ability to rotate the screen the opposite way would be nice. And a basic tutorial for the newcomer would be useful. It was definitely one of the best piano app for making your custom song finding note and simply improve on piano playing. Absolutely recommend it to every musician artist or singer.

It basically has everything that I need. I think paying around $4 for the 1-year PRO version subscription is incredibly generous considering how many features one will have access to. It's the definition of perfection for me. I wish the interface would be more appealing, but even though it isn't, it serves its purpose wonderfully. This is my favourite app. Saves me a lot of time and energy.

The kind of app I didn't know I'd want and now don't want to live without. It's easy and quick to look up chords when trying to analyze music and it's also (fairly) easy to add chord pads to experiment with chord progressions in keys I'm not yet super comfortable with. I really like the ability to add new scale and chord types and have them immediately available in any root I want, and who doesn't want to use a sus11+ when you're in a Lydian-y mood? Be honest.

Great app, but after buying premium (couple minutes ago, lifetime), it said payment didn't go through, even though it did. Edit: from 3 to 5 stars, either the payment issue resolved on its own or they quickly fixed it for me. Either way, amazing app, the paid version is a whole different world when you want to learn about chords. Mind=blown! 🤯

Ever wanted to practice or learn piano or music theory in general? Maybe with guides for chords and progressions with an interactive display? One that shows the chords on the keys and let's you sample what they sound like with the ease of pressing a button? (It does so much MORE than just that) DOWNLOAD NOW!!..........Did I mention that it's free?

Its nicely organized and they add the ability to play the notes and scales where ever you can view them unlike many apps that just list chords without much ability to sort or interact. All the subscription features are exactly that, features and not primary functions of the app plus is at a very cheap price, I just appreciate apps like that

I really like it, but now it won't make any sounds... My progression is there, but when I hit play... Nothing. Can you guys help me. I'll give 5 stars and buy the Pro version if this can be resolved. I'm on Android Galaxy Note 8. EDIT: Okay, I LOVE this app, I bought your PRO version... And it freezes more than the free one. Please, fix this. I bought it... I could really, really love it... Contact me...

I absolutely love it, I'm able to find all the chords I need even if I know a few notes only. While most use it for chord dictionary I actually wanted to use it for chord progressions, however I'm not too sure on how to use the chord progression part of the app. It's kinda confusing, with that being said I do think there should be videos on youtube or something like a tutorial going over the app in detail of all it can do. Especially on chord Progression. All in all it is a good app.

I am a programmer and amateur musician. I am totally WOW'd. There’s so much, and it seems to work well on Droid. Just opened the box, and after 2 hours -- Lifetime member. Some serious exploring ahead. It's been two years now, and im still finding it very useful. Thank you again. It's 9 months since last review and still finding new gems withis app. Great job!

Amazing app! This app has it all, scales and chords, circle of fifths, lessons etc. The best feature by far is the chord reverse search and the scale reverse search, it's absolutely the most useful app I have ever used for piano. I have learned so much about so many different scales and chords just by searching up songs I wrote, don't hesitate to get this app , it's perfect.

Is there a way to export files backups to Windows? I noticed you denote support for iOS, but do not indicate support for other OSs, nor denote ability to export any files. (I am using the app as a scratchpad for hooks to use in hip hop; I am not a musician or other artistic genious, but this app allows me to graph improvisation to create songs pristine; hip hop and rapping is not just 'a thing', a hobby, something to waste time with, but a door into my consciousness...). c what I did? lol.

Not a very intuitive design! Good reference material, and I haven't really found any inaccuracies, but I would prefer to see a scholarly notation, not a jazz notation, in chord names. That said, great for reference, but it doesn't really do anything. I needed a chord progression mapper, and this isn't it. I can find other apps that do the same. Just cumbersome.

I purchased this app so it could help me sketch out ideas while away from my studio. I downloaded the free version, and it seemed like a winner. However, after buying it, every single time I try to use any feature the sound drops and the screen is blank. Also, almost nothing works in this app. all the "locked" features that I unlocked by paying money? NONE of them work properly. I am requesting a refund. I dont have time to try and get someone elses app to work. That I paid for. Sorry.

Im a guitarist who is into music theory. This app is great for mapping out music youve heard, or coming up with new music with their scale dictionary. Coming up with new melodic ideas with different scales is a lot of fun and everything feels so new. If you ever feel stuck, like your playing the same things, this app could change that very easily. Real solid app. I spent the money on the app to get rid of ads, and id do it again.

My favorite music app. Ex: When transposing the key, this makes finding the correct chords much easier. Improved my ability to play (Now I'm up to "good enough") 😃 A very helpful set of abilities for any music lover. The confidence I've gained has been noticeable, as my wife and her mom both complimented how much more sure I seem when playing. Great app. Thank you

Career bassist that picked up a couple workstations during pandemic. I can figure out most chords. But, it's a nice to tool that can not only test your choices, but give you the correct chord and fingerings . Have used it consistently since I downloaded it. Of course there are options that can add additional cost. But there's plenty here for free. At the point I no longer need what's free. I can only imagine what the paid enhancements will bring to the table
