The '''Chord''' selector lets you pick the root note (e.g. C), chord quality (e.g. major, minor, diminished), and slash/inversion. The main area shows a grid of chord diagrams: for guitar and ukulele, fretboard diagrams with finger numbers, open (o) and muted (x) strings, and starting-fret labels; for piano, mini keyboard diagrams with the chord notes highlighted.

At the top you’ll see the title “Tuner” and a checkmark (✓) to close. The tuner shows the detected note (e.g. a large green “A”), the octave (e.g. “4” for A4), and the frequency (e.g. “440,0 Hz”). A horizontal tuning scale below indicates how close your pitch is to the target: a bright green vertical line in the center means you’re in tune; the line moves left or right when you’re flat or sharp. See [[Metronome & Tuner]] for more.
