Frequently Asked Questions
What is SongView.net
SongView.net is the #1 music app using advanced music AI that anyone can use to instantly find, analyze, learn and even play & perform songs!
- It detects and creates the song chords (for guitar, piano, ukulele) showing them in order
- It also can instantly detect any song's 'Key', Tempo (BPM), Genre, Mood, 'Lyrical style' and more
- It then creates and displays the finger pattern chord diagrams as well
- So that You Can Learn & Play Songs!
And it does this without the need of an audio file - simply type in a Song Name (or paste a Song Link URL) and press Analyze!
When you press the Analyze button, our advanced AI will detect song information (using multiple data sources) to lookup and detect a song's published information including its metadata, genre, tempo, mood (as well as will describes the history, lyrical style), then it creates the Song Chords in proper order, along with the fingering diagrams...
- To quickly Learn about any Song and even Play the Song!
Is SongView a website or an App
It's both! It is a AI PWA web-app that can be viewed from literally any web-enabled device (desktop, tablet, smartphone, smart TV, etc.) regardless of operating system, and also doesn't require a download to use. Your songs and playlists can now be available on multiple devices 'no limits' and without interuption, keeping your data in sync between devices (including songs & playlist order, etc), use any web-enabled device, does not require any download.
Is there an iPhone or Android version available:
For the reasons mentioned above; you would have to download, install, and a way to 'sync' all your devices - which is why a PWA (web-based) app makes the most sense, we also can be easily added to your phone's home screen - just press the 'Share' icon on your phone when viewing our web app to add a shortcut icon on your phone's Home screen!
Will you offer an iPhone or Android version:
We actually have both iPhone or Android downloadable apps, but as mentioned is best to use as a web-app as it works seemlessly with multiple devices and cross-platforms (Windows, Apple, Android, Chrome, etc) to pickup where you left off using any device - also QR share and more!
(no downloads or updates needed) works on all devices (Windows, Macs, Tablets, Android & iPhones, Chromebooks, Smart TVs, etc)
Do you use actual Audio/Lyrics
No, we do not use, share, or store any 'audio' files for our analysis. SongView.net does not allow (and cannot use) any audio files for analysis - this way we are both (you and us) protected against any copyright infringements. As you may, or may not know; both audio and lyrics can be copyrighted, therefore SongView.net does not, will not, and cannot use, store, share, download/upload nor save any audio of any kind, or in any audio format. Also any lyrics, artwork or performance art is not allowed to display unless it is publicized (available to view freely online), and if so; you will then see a 'copyright notice' where the lyrics would display. We also do not share your own stored song & playlist 'saves' or 'searches' (as these are text-only files) that are yours alone, so you can store, transfer and share these files freely!
How do you Analyze Songs without actual Audio
We have invested years of music data development; and have created our own proprietary (AI based) system that involves music data discovery, data parsing, and an AI music theory analysis system all working together in parallel to instantly analyze all available song, meta data, wiki, lyrical sources, etc - to detect and display any song's true info (including key, tempo, genre, mood, lyrical analysis, music compositional style, etc) - and then intelligently process (or sometimes 'guess') the song's 'chord structure' - then 'dynamically' also create & display chord names & chord diagrams for piano, guitar, ukulele, etc. simultaneously! - all without needing the actual song's copyrighted audio! Want to edit or change any of the chords, lyrics or other data? - you can always replace any data by simply selecting & replacing (use our new droplists)! Then just save (use our heart icon) to keep the changes!
Can I change the Chords
Absolutely! although we use the most advanced AI to analyze your searches; we also understand that there can be common inconsistencies especially with alternate song versions, tunings, Capo positions, etc. - so we allow every aspect of our items to be edited, you can select & save and even Add other notes or chords, as well as change Key, Tempo, Genre or other, and save everything!
Which Chords do you use
We offer both Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced Chords (including Sus, Dim, Aug., etc)
We also allow editing of the chord choice (both guitar and keys) and advanced sorting of chords (beginner, intermediate, and advanced) to help when learning to play!
How can I Share My Songs or Playlists
