A smarter and more intuitive way to explore harmony, built for musicians, students, and curious learners who want to visualize and understand chords in real time.
Instinctive Chords shows you the chord you’re playing instantly. Play notes on a MIDI keyboard and see the chord name update in real time, so you can quickly confirm what you’re actually playing. No guessing, no theory gymnastics.
If you want to go deeper, the app also shows the intervals and note relationships inside each chord, helping you understand why it works, not just what it’s called.
Bring your musical exploration anywhere with Intervals and Chords for iOS. Designed specifically for iPhone and iPad devices running iOS 15.0 and above, this intuitive app puts the power of advanced chord detection, interval visualization, and harmonic exploration directly into your hands. Whether you’re practicing at home, composing on the go, or improvising with friends, you’ll have a seamless experience across all your devices.
Take your harmonic work further with Intervals and Chords for macOS. Built for Macs running macOS 12.3 Monterey and above, the desktop version offers a larger, more flexible workspace for detailed chord analysis, interval visualisation, and harmonic exploration. Whether you’re composing, analysing voicings, or experimenting with more complex ideas, the macOS app is designed to feel natural on a desktop and scale with the way you work.
Select a key to understand how notes and chords relate to tonal context, including when they sit outside the key. This makes tension, modulation, borrowed chords, and modal interchange easier to hear and internalize.
Take your understanding of chords to an advanced level by diving into inversions and rootless voicings. Whether you’re a beginner expanding your basic chord knowledge or an advanced player looking for sophisticated harmonies, you’ll appreciate how easily you can experiment with and visualize these powerful musical concepts. This feature enriches your playing, composition, and improvisation by providing you the freedom and flexibility to create unique and compelling harmonic structures.
Connect a MIDI instrument or use on-screen input to detect chords, intervals, inversions, and voicings with responsive real-time feedback.
We don’t need to call home to help you explore chords and intervals. In fact, your musical adventures are strictly your business. Our app never monitors, tracks, or transmits your data. Enjoy complete privacy and peace of mind, knowing your creativity stays exactly where it belongs: between you, your instrument, and your screen.
Switch effortlessly between visual themes to match your environment, reduce eye strain, or simply suit your aesthetic preferences. The app adapts to your workflow, ensuring comfort and usability in every session.
If you want something simpler, there’s a free macOS app available as well. It covers the core chord-detection features, without musical notation or advanced cases like rootless chords. It’s ideal if you just want to explore ideas, experiment, or see how the workflow feels. As an extra, you get extended flexible visual controls for the on-screen keyboard and chord display. When you’re ready for deeper analysis and notation, you can step up to the paid apps at any time.
