Auto-Key | Music key detection

I love this app, the idea of an auto-key finding app, and how you can integrate it with Auto-Tune. But, it isn’t always right. I played it over a track I made (B♭M/Gm) and it recognized it as E♭M/Cm. I started over at least 10 different times, and only one of those times it was correct. Makes me wonder how accurate it is on tracks that I didn’t make, or tracks that I’m mixing for somebody. The first chord is literally B♭ Major, and there is no A♭ in the song whatsoever. So I’m not sure how it got it wrong. I know this is a new app, I’m sure this may be fixed soon.

The app works pretty well and usually gets the key right. But I noticed when I was testing it that it doesn’t seem to be able to recognize modes other than major and natural minor. It will give you a key that has the same number of flats or sharps, but with the wrong starting note. For example, I tested it with a song in Bb Dorian, and it told me that it was Ab Major. Other than that, it works just fine.

I use Auto-Tune mobile to make music but an updated version of garageband causes the auto tune to be pitched up roughly 50 cents and is unbearable. I have to use an old ipad to create music at this point. It was worth the money and the best Auto-Tune app i have ever installed but i am quite dissatisfied with this mishap and hope it will be fixed soon. Thank you so much!! 😄

This app is so incredible and on point. If you guys can get this on the Apple Watch I would be sold on buying one purely for this app. Would be 5 star but needs to be on watch for that "perfect 5th" star ;) Cheers!! @JeremySaxx

I have been trying this app out with some of my favorite songs and to help tune my ear and knowledge to pick up song keys. Unfortunately, after it picks the key I try to use the keyboard to play the scale and check if it’s the right key and the volume is way too low. I’m not sure if there is a way to fix this but on my phone it seems like the max volume is barely audible. :/

It would be great if we could use this app without having to login or create an account. I just need a simple app that detects key, and this app does that well, most of the time. While using the app, I click to detect key and now forced to create an account to continue using 1 simple feature. No thanks, why do you need my full name, email everything else for a key detection program?

This is exactly what I needed, Although some may say its “inaccurate” I disagree I think its pretty accurate considering its an external microphone from your phone. I produce music and this has helped me so much, I love it.

Tried this app on several songs. It would give one key, and when retried gave a different key. I tried to use it again the second day to see if I was doing something wrong and it refused to let me try again without paying, So I deleted and looked for something that works.

I have no idea what happened to this app as it was cool when I first got it. Out of nowhere the volume just whacked out and you can barely hear it no matter how high you turn the volume up. I deleted-reinstalled, reached out to customer service etc. and they didn’t have any answers. It’s basically useless now.

Finally a tool for key detection right on your phone. The scales feature is a great addition as well. Love this app

This app worked well. Now it won’t work unless I log in or create an account, but it won’t let me log in or create an account. Just another useless app in the list I guess. It does not show a cost in the App Store just the “open” button.

This app requires you to create a sign in. I don’t mind creating an account, but as this app requires one AND doesn’t support Sign in with Apple, I’m deleting it from my device and finding a paid alternative.

I rate this app one star because there is nothing to do besides record your voice and you cants even listen to it afterward!I am very upset and that is why I am deleting this app!

It’s a good and easy app, it just need to be more clear about the key because on same music that i mad it giving me alote of diferent keys

Worked one day and the next time I tried to use it a week later did nothing but say no found.

This app does not accurately detect the key of a song. I tested it on four different songs and it gave me not only the wrong key, but detected it as minor when it was major.

I mean if you guess enough times you’ll get it right eventually, probably more often than this app.

I really like this app

Works as advertised.
