Capo Helper

When a guitar players uses a capo, and plays a chord, it is not really that chord that is getting played. If a bass or keyboard player wants to play the same chord you have to transpose it. This application will transpose the chords for you for the fret that the capo is placed on. This makes it simpler for everyone else and the guitar player can use their capo as much as they want.

Ok app but I think it should be flipped around.
Seancca

Ok after using this a bit more, I think the app should be flipped around. The notes under capo should be the notes that are being played capoed. The case right now is that the notes under capo are the uncapoed notes, and the notes under original are the capoed notes. I recommend either changing it so the notes under capo show the ones played relative to the capo and the notes under original should be the standard notes relative the nut of the guitar. As it stands it makes it a bit difficult to understand fully. Other than that I applaud them for creating an app like this.


Excellent app

This is a huge help, especially with church music that loves flats.


My Review
Keithmj

It is backwards. It is nice because you can see all the chords at one time. But it needs to be changed. On fifth fret the A chord would be an E chord, not a D chord. Please correct this.


Nice, but...
SpunkyDiva

It would be really helpful if it had Em A2 and such listed. I am transposing guitar chord sheets for the violin Sunday morning, and this program is helpful, but the above would really help. Would love to see this updated. Thanks.

Since ios6 I can't use the app. Worked fine til then, now picture comes up and then shuts down. Any help would be appreciated.


Does not work on iPhone 6

I just tried using the app for the first time since buying my phone after upgrading from an iPhone 4 and the slide bar that is used to select capo setting is not visible - it's not there, rendering the app useless. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, as well as power cycling my iPhone, neither one worked. Very disappointing.


Will not function on iPhone 5s
P. Schuster

I used this app on my 4th gen iPod Touch without a problem, but the slide bar does not appear at the top of the screen on my iPhone 5s. This makes the app useless, because I can't change the capo setting. My phone is running iOS version 8.3. Please upload a fix for this.
