New in 1.2: • Fingering: every chord grip finger by finger, plus a drill on a life-size neck. • Strum trainer redesigned: Andean rhythms first, drawn bar by bar, with count-in and live accuracy. New: saya, rin chilote, cachimbo, repique, huayño with chasquido. • Simulation: Palm mute for the chasquido. • Tuner: strumming across the headstock now sounds every string. • Courses reviewed: new lessons on arpeggios, inversions and scales. • Drills sound like a charango, in their own Practice tab.
Tune, play and learn the charango: a tuner, 168 chords, courses and drills.
Tune the charango, play it and learn it, all in one app. The tuner shows you the headstock and marks the peg to turn, four courses take you from holding it to real huayno and cueca, ten practice drills train your ear, hands and timing, 168 chords show you how each one sits on the charango's five courses, and a songbook of 37 songs puts them to work. Then it hands you the instrument. In Simulation the charango is on your screen: strum across the strings, or touch one to pluck it. • Tuner: the headstock on screen with the peg to turn marked, a live needle that never flashes "in tune" early, and nine tunings: temple natural, temple diablo, the transposed temples, and the ronroco and walaycho sizes • Songbook: 37 songs, huaynos, carnavalitos, pasillos, zambas and more, with the chords for every bar and a play-along • Learn: four charango courses (46 lessons), from your first strum to repertoire-level idiom • Practice: ten drills: ear training, melodic dictation, fretboard, intervals, chord changes, timing, rhythm, scales, sight reading and a strum trainer with Andean rhythms (huayno, saya, cachimbo, rin chilote, the repique and the chasquido) • Chords: 168 chords (12 roots, 14 types), up to three fingerings each, and Fingering: every grip finger by finger, with a drill to form the shapes • Simulation: a charango you can play, pluck a string, strum all ten or palm-mute the chasquido • Tools: metronome, drone, scales, chord and scale, circle of fifths, capo and transpose, practice recorder, overtones and String Health • 12 colour palettes, light and dark themes, left-handed mode Free: the tuner with every tuning, the needle and bar meters, Simulation, major, minor, 7th and minor 7th chords, the first three songs, four starter scales, the fundamentals course, the first level of every drill, and the metronome, drone, recorder and capo.

Never a subscription, and the tuner is never gated. It all works offline, and Charango collects no data: see the Data safety section below.
