(This app was developed under the supervision of Mr. Yuichi Nagata, the developer of "InstaChord".)
■ Features
◆ Can perform music instantly
You can enjoy playing like a guitar or piano by tapping and swiping the pads while holding down the buttons with the chord symbols (C, Dm, etc.).
There are fundamental chords based on music theory on the screen, so you can make a song just by choosing buttons loosely.
◆ Guitar or Piano
You can choose from two types of interfaces, "guitar strings" and "piano keyboards".
◆ Play various chords
If you press "~" (swap button) at the same time, the major and minor of the chord will be switched.
(Ex: "F" + "~" → "Fm", "Em" + "~" → "E")
You can also play various chords by pressing the chord buttons (7, M7, sus4, etc.) at the same time.
* Some functions are paid options
◆ You can play any song
When you set the Key setting to the key of a song, the fundamental chords (diatonic chords) used for that song are assigned to the buttons on the screen, so you can easily play songs with any key.
Since numerals (scale degree) is written on the screen, it is ideal for learning chord progressions.

Ratings and Reviews
Finally!
I’ve been looking everywhere for an app like this!
Next step is to add built in looping so I can run lead on top! But please do nothing do overcomplicate what is a well-considered app so far! An actual chord-based mobile instrument!
Minor 6ths and other jazz voicings?
This app is a good concept with nice ability to make chord transitions. The app is based on the hardware device that apparently has the options for added 6th chords. Why is that option missing here? It would be appreciated if other jazz chords could be added also like the app “chord maps”. That other app provided flat 9, flat 5th and 6th options for even greater playability. This functional concept should be expanded. An added guitar fret graphic showing playable chords would be a great addition, especial if it indicated various inversions and guitar neck positions.
