Fretwise: Capo & Transpose

Fretwise answers the two questions that stop a practice session dead: where does the capo go, and what does this song look like in a key I can actually sing? **Where does the capo go** Pick the key you want to hear and the chord shapes you would rather play. Fretwise gives you the fret, and draws the capo on a real neck so you can see when you are getting uncomfortably high up. • All five open shape families — C, A, G, E and D — compared at once • Every position that sounds the same key, so you can pick the voicing you like • Warns you when the capo lands somewhere the tone goes thin • The seven chords of the key, with their Roman numerals **Transpose a chart** Paste chords in and move the whole song. Lyrics are untouched — only the chords change. • Chord qualities and slash chords survive: Amaj7/C# moves as one unit • Write accidentals as sharps or flats • Convert the whole chart to Nashville numbers so it works in any key **Circle of fifths, as an actual wheel** Tap any key on the wheel. Major keys on the outside, relative minors inside. • Key signature, relative minor, and the neighbouring keys either side • The chords in that key, numbered • Because neighbours on the circle sound related, it shows you where a song can go next **Tunings** Fourteen tunings across guitar, bass, ukulele and mandolin, drawn on a neck and written thickest string first. • Standard, Drop D, Drop C, half step down • Open G, Open D, Open C, DADGAD • Bass four and five string, ukulele standard and baritone, mandolin **Terms** Twelve pieces of vocabulary a chord chart assumes you already know — capo, bight of the key signature, relative minor, Nashville numbers, slash chords, voicing, barre. **Built to stay out of the way** • Works completely offline • No account, no sign-up, no ads • No permissions requested at all — this is not a tuner and never listens • No data collected — the full privacy policy is in the app For guitarists, worship teams, singer-songwriters and anyone who has ever capoed at the wrong fret and found out mid-chorus.
