7 Chords is a comprehensive library of guitar chords for your iPhone that is suited for beginners as well as for intermediate guitar players.

Unlike most other programs 7 Chords uses the clear and understandable tab notation you already know from your guitar book / fingering chart. Picking a chord is very easy: just pick the base tone and variety of the chord on the pick-wheel, then select the voicing by sliding through the chord pages.

7 Chords shows chord name, the frets to play, the fingers to use (including information like barré) and also the actual tones played. The chord dictionary contains more than 1500 of the most common guitar chords for your electrical or acoustic guitar.

Supported chord varieties are: sus2, sus4, 5, +, 6, 7, 7sus4, o7, 7b5, 7+5, 7b9, 7#9, maj7, 9, 11, 13, m, m6, m7, m7b5, mMaj7, m9, +9, maj9, Cmaj7b5.

Simply tap or double tap the chord to hear it on your iPhone speaker.

does its job
hardrockperson

has wide variety of chords and has sound samples for all of them


Great app. easy to use and it does what it said
hbbbzzz

This app does what it said. Very useful when you need to find the chord. It tell you a few way to play the same chord. This app is very simple and straight forward.


Why so many one star reviews? 5 star all the way!
Farmer Cotton

This app is very cool. Works perfectly. It is incredibly helpful when you're writing songs or trying to remember difficult chords.


Got it for free, would have paid if I would have known it was so good!

I got this and Guitar reference Pro for free. Guitar reference Pro is by far the most knowledgeable and has much more information regarding chords/scales/triads, etc. HOWEVER, if you are looking for a guitar app that just lets you hear and see which chords are which, then this is your app! Instead of making you wait for some silly QT video to load for you to hear a note played one time?, this app lets you hear it right away either strummed slowly string by string or by double tapping hear it strummed quickly! Fantastic...***the only other thing I would suggest is letting you practice strumming by sliding your finger across the strings too see what it sounds like when strumming from bottom up****developers take note***


You idiots who say this is horrible deserve to have your money taken from you.

This is OBVIOUSLY designed for guitar players for you morons out there that think this is some sort of game. In all seriousness, it is very useful to have a chord dictionary at your finger tips, espesically for beginners. I find it very useful even though not every single chord isnt on here, for example, i couldnt find any dim chords. Overall it is a good app.


Thank you! Perfect!

Dos libros menos
Cristóbal

Acabo de guardar dos libros que mantenía cerca de las guitarras para estudiar, gracias a esta aplicación. Me gusta la simpleza de la presentación. Añadir notación tradicional (espacio tiene) y una manera de editar la lista de acordes aumentarían su valor didáctico.


All that you need ...
GousGous

... even for advanced guitar players this contains all chords you need. Great design and greate value!


Perfect!

We just recorded our third album and I am playing the guitar since I was a child - but I still need to lookup a chord from time to time. Now I can leave my book at home - this iPhone App is all I need! Great work!


Awesome!

Shows chord variations on different frets. This was exactly what I was looking for.
