Chosen by BestEducationalApps as one of the Top 5 Music Theory Apps for iPad - "For music teachers wondering how to get their students to practice chord progressions and new theory topics at home, Music Tool could be the solution. This app is a simple dashboard of notes and chords that make those elements sound out when you tap them. For example, you can tap the C on the keyboard or in the list of notes, and hear the C. You can also tap the C sus4 chord and hear that chord. In addition to the Major scales dashboard, there is a list of modes that allows you to change the dashboard into a list of notes and chords used in the different modes."

No use
App is not ready for iOS 10 and it does not orient itself towards any kind of usability. It was once a paid app that went free and it looks like it too.
Stopped working with iOS 7.1.2
Software disappears after launch.

What an excellent app, the only thing left out is the ability to rotate the wheel of fifths in real time... Instead of a picture
Interface change for uncommon scales
Admittedly, I haven't used the app much. I don't need help on my major/minor scales, but need to exercise my brain w/ other scales. So my complaint would be that one (in my opinion) shouldn't think of (or be forced to think of) a scale in terms of its relative major. It would be nice to be able to, for example, find the B locrian scale on the "B key" view, instead if needing to think of the relative major, go there, then select locrian.... A UX change is probably needed, but overall, the app does its job.
no sound even after updating and restarting
too bad - a nice app if it works, but after doing the "in app" purchase (to unlock basic features which should've been included from the start) - this app will not produce audio from the built in speaker (all other DAW apps do). Please fix this bug asap !
Great Little App
Since the update this app out performs any of this nature that I have seen thus far. Really helpful during the creative process. The availability of the Circle of 5th chart as well as chord substitution, all modes and scales. The one thing I would add is to display the relative minor on Circle of 5th's chart. Otherwise...Great little app!!!
Amazing and thx
