A metronome on your board

  1. Featured

    Metronome widget

    Drop a minimal, tuner-style metronome next to your chords. Type a new tempo while it plays and it keeps time without stopping.

    The metronome widget playing at 120 BPM in 4/4, the downbeat lit
  2. 15 guitar tunings

    Pick Drop D, DADGAD, Open G, E♭ Standard and eleven more in Scale Settings, from open tunings down to B Standard.

  3. Bass and ukulele boards

    Set a board to bass, four or five strings, or to ukulele, each with its own tunings. Chords come from the guitar library for now.

  4. Add anything from one card

    The Add card now has shortcuts for an empty chord and the metronome, so new widgets land on the board in one click.

  5. Chord filters in the floating bar

    The chord drawer’s filters and actions moved into the floating bar, leaving the whole drawer for the chord list.

  6. A calmer Save button

    Save stays quiet while you play and only asks for attention when real work is at risk.

  7. Polish

    Focus rings no longer get clipped, dialogs stop flashing scrollbars on hover, chord cards in the drawer no longer show up blank, and added notes use a softer color that fits your board theme.

Smoother on iPhone

  1. Add Chord answers a single tap on iOS

    Dragging no longer swallows taps, so adding a chord on iPhone and iPad works the first time.

  2. Sync offer laid out right in Safari

    The sync offer keeps its layout in Safari instead of collapsing.

Checkout that keeps your board

  1. Your board travels through checkout

    Buying AuralFret Cloud takes a snapshot of your local board with the order, so it is waiting in your account afterwards.

  2. Save reminders that respect your time

    The Save button warms up based on how long your work has gone unsaved, not on how many edits you made.

  3. Launch discounts apply on their own

    An active promotion is applied at checkout without typing a code.

Sync your board across devices

  1. AuralFret Cloud

    Pay once and your board syncs across devices. The board you built before buying comes with you.

  2. Auto-sync on save

    Already have an account? AuralFret recognizes it and syncs your board every time you save.

  3. A quieter autosave

    The autosave indicator stopped blinking on every single edit.

Search, themes and labels

  1. Search the whole chord catalog

    Find any chord from the drawer, not just the ones already loaded on screen.

  2. Board themes

    Give each board its own color theme — menus and overlays follow it.

  3. Notes or intervals

    Switch fretboard labels between note names and intervals.

  4. Your voicing is remembered

    The voicing you pick on a chord stays selected after a refresh.

  5. Rename your board

    Click the pencil next to the board name in /play. Dialogs now also fit on short screens.

Clearer pricing, easier reading

  1. The price before checkout

    The one-time price is shown up front, before you reach checkout.

  2. More accessible homepage

    Better contrast, visible focus states and larger tap targets across the homepage.

A faster chord library

  1. Chord pages open instantly

    Every chord page is pre-built, so it opens fast on any connection.

  2. Related chords on every page

    Each chord page links to chords that share its root or quality.

  3. A reliable chord drawer

    The library and the drawer load reliably and fetch chords as you scroll.

Voicing carousel

  1. Step through voicings

    Chord widgets get carousel controls to move through every voicing of a chord.

  2. Play what you see

    The Play action sounds the voicing currently selected.

Sharps and flats

  1. Sharp/flat toggle

    Switch a chord between sharp and flat spelling (C♯ ↔ D♭) right on the widget — the choice carries into new chords.

  2. Flat chords in the library

    Flat-named chords show up in the drawer and library, and search understands both spellings.

  3. Redesigned chord cards

    Cleaner chord cards and a simpler notation toggle.
