Tired of all those chordfinder apps that just give you the standard results every app gives you? Fretter is the new kid on the block. And its great. Ugly, but great!

We didnt sit behind our computers typing in all those chord diagrams, no we spent our time better. We came up with a way to give you lots of great correct diagrams, without needing us to do boring stuff: Fretter teaches your iPhone basic musictheory and with that knowledge it has the power to give you every possible diagram there is. Want to see how to play Cmaj7/F# on a Guitar with a Dropped D tuning? Fretter knows how to search for it! (We didnt try, but if its possible to play, it will definitely show up. Yes, were lazy. :) )

Still, Fretter is great. And it does awesome stuff like reverse chord lookup (for the creative geniuses among you), and you can also strum the diagrams to hear how they sound. Easy if you want to find the perfect sounding Dmaj9 or whatever strange chord you need!

So, what are you waiting for? Fretter!

For a more formal description, please continue reading.

Looking for ways to play all those chords on your guitar, banjo, ukulele or mandolin? Interested in a reverse lookup function? Fretter: the ultimate chordfinder!

Fretter doesnt rely on a database with diagrams, instead it calculates all the possible diagrams for a given chord/instrument/tuning combination. Its algorithm is optimized to only present to you the chords that you can actually play as a human.

Because Fretter is build this way, you can select any tuning and still have all the possible chords presented to you.

You can easily select a basic or advanced chord, optionally with added bassnote, and go to the diagrams. Each diagram has extra information about the chordnotes and the intervals used.

A very nice feature is the audio playback. You can hear how the chord variations sound so you can easily select which variant you like the most.

Also included is a reverse lookup option. Nice if you are a bit adventurous and you are coming up with your own chords on your instrument, but dont know how they are called. Fretter can help you here by providing you with the correct naming.

If you are looking for a chord reference app: this is what you need.

"Where this app stands out though, is not in its vast reference of chords; it is in it’s reverse look up option."

Vom Ansatz her gut, aber ausbaufähig

Gefällt mir schon sehr gut. Die Eingabe mit dem Rad ist Geschmacksache, ich würde gerne bei der reverse Suche einfach auf ein Griffbrett klicken können, das wäre intuitiver. Außerdem fehlen mir bei der reverse Suche, die für mich das Highlight der App ist, noch Stimmungen für andere Instrumente. So fehlt z.B. mein Hauptinstrument, die Irish Bouzouki in GDAD oder ADAD. Mandola in CGDG wäre auch nicht schlecht. Das ließe sich sicherlich in einem Update leicht einbauen. Dann würde ich auch gerne 5 Sterne vergeben.

Ottimo

Consente di trovare numerose posizioni per tutti gli accordi su tastiera di chitarra, ukulele, mandolino e banjo, e di scegliere laccordatura. Nel modo "reverse", al contrario, consente di dare un nome a qualunque "creatura" abbiamo composto sulla tastiera, utilissimo per chi come me non ne mastica ancora abbastanza di teoria degli accordi e/o è molto pigro! Fa quello che deve fare, non ha fronzoli e vale molto di più di quanto costa - imho.

Excellent

If you want a reference guide with extensive possibilities but no nonsense, this is it.

iPhone 3G

3 stars for the good idea, but my app crashes every time I try to select anything. Please fix man

Perfect

This app has everything anyone would need and more. I do wish though that there was a way to save tunings and other settings that you use a lot. It would also be cool if there was a page with all the musical keys and the chords that belong to them and every setting you change, changes the chords relatively. That would make things way easier for me me. but this app is the best guitar chord app Ive ever used. and to the guy they said it crashes, Ive never had that problem, I think its because youre using an iPhone 3G

Where is the iPad version?

I like the application but I needed to buy the iPhone app to use on my iPad2. It works, but how hard can it be to adapt it for the larger screen with auto rotate? Adapt it and Ill give it five stars.

Amazing app!

Best guitar app everywhere! Helped me so much with my first year of jazz band and I had to learn all these crazy chords. Fretter had them all!! Every guitar player should own this app. Well worth the $2!
