Melody to Chord Composer
Overview:
Melody to Chord is a simple way to inspire your compositions. Play a melody with one finger and the app will show you which notes likely sound sour (colored red) and play chords to match your melody as you play it (the last 6 chords you've played are listed). It can also automatically play AI-generated melodies.
It's intended as a songwriting tool for inspiration. For example, play until you find/hear a combination of your melody and the AI-selected chord progression that works for you

Waste of time. Sounds more like a siren. There's no stop button. How hard is it, simple keyboard... Touch one note, and it gives the corresponding chord. Would make writing so much simpler. If someone knows of one, please guide me lol (Feeling fed up)

What does settings do ... Is it just there? Seems like that
The only reason I am giving the one star is because I can't give it none.This app is absolute trash, not user friendly AT ALL and doesn't even have a help section where I can figure out what the heck is going on. I don't see anywhere where I can play my own melody and I have no idea what is happening with the "type" nonsense. Uninstalling immediately. Unless you can fix this to be way more user friendly with a tutorial or SOMETHING this app is absolutely useless.
