Mobile And Native Apps

Chordy is built as a web app and native mobile app with offline storage and device integrations.

Offline Use

Recently used data is available locally. If sync is enabled, changes made offline remain pending until the device can reach the server again.

For important libraries, use exported backups in addition to sync.

Native Storage

The web app uses browser storage. Native apps use Capacitor and local SQLite storage for app data. Sync and backup workflows are designed to keep data portable across those environments.

Import And Export

On supported mobile platforms, Chordy can use native file pickers and sharing flows for importing songs, restoring backups, and exporting files.

The native apps can also open the camera to create an image song directly from a photo.

Device Features

Native apps can use device-specific features where available:

  • Camera capture for image songs from photos
  • Haptics for important actions and warnings
  • MIDI access for supported devices
  • Background audio behavior for backing tracks
  • Native print and export bridges
  • App deep links and share flows
