Bandmate
Easy Guitar
Pick a chord pad at the top of the screen and strum the guitar strings below by swiping up and down. Make your own chords or import them from a chart.The screen is split into a chord area and a guitar area. Touching a chord pad keeps that chord selected; swiping down on the guitar is a down-strum and swiping up is an up-strum. Touching a single string plays just that string.
Chords are built from 12 roots, 7 chord types and a form, and each song keeps its own pad positions and sizes. You can also import chord symbols from a chart (PDF, photo, MusicXML, Guitar Pro 7/8 or chord text). Rhythm and notes are not imported.
It is free, with no account, ads or in-app purchases. It works offline and songs stay on your device. It supports iPhone and iPad (iOS 17 or later) and Android 8.0 or later.
