About this app

40 great tools for learning, composing and playing for students or professional musicians. Everything works equally well for guitar, ukulele, bass or many other stringed instruments. Expect THE reference for chords, scales and picking patterns for any tuning. Or THE songbook with access to the world's largest catalogs of lyrics, chords and TABs.

Only the best should be good enough. Expect a best-integrated set of tools. Basics like tuner, metronome or circle of fifths. But just better. The tuner has e.g. an extra string change mode or the metronome a speed trainer.

The ultimate chord library knows every chord and fingering for every instrument and tuning. Without exception! Conversely, there is a chord name for any fingering.

A songbook that is second to none. It finds every song imaginable with chords for any tuning and instrument. Without registration and account. It converts songs for guitar independently for ukulele, bass or banjo. Or vice versa from ukulele to guitar, etc. Of course with the corresponding chords and favorite fingerings. Incredibly functional: Intelligent line break, auto scroll, zoom, audio and video player, drum machine, YouTube integration, pedal support, online editor and viewer, and much more.

Scales galore. Play the scales with all kinds of patterns. Like the pros. And also sometimes different from what you are used to. Provides the diatonic chords for every scale and vice versa.

Expect extraordinary tools like a fingerpicking trainer, a transposer or a tone generator. Or a drum machine for songbook accompaniment or as a rhythm trainer. Or the innovative scale circle. It applies the principle of the circle of fifths to hundreds of scales and modes.

I love this app but recently it stopped working correctly. When I try to tune, it just jumps around and doesn't accurately detect the note. Other tuner apps are working correctly. The app has microphone permissions. RedMagic 9 Pro Android 14 EDIT: Restarting the phone after setting the permissions fixed it. Thank you so much!

Hello Nikolas, thank you very much for the feedback. We assume that it is an issue with Android. Please reboot your phone. This should help Android to clean up. Best regards, Heidi, s.mart Music Lab

The Songbook feature doesn't work very well despite downloading and using the current version. Some songs either scroll to fast or to slow despite adjusting the tempo, very frustrating. Sorry I bought that feature.

Chords are presented in the same format as scales. This will make sense until you look at any other chart in the world. I emailed, to request an option to rotate chords into normal convention. They responded, their way is more consistent and maybe they will add it. I understand that it's the neck represented in a consistent way, but it looks just like a chart and is very confusing.
