Description

You give WaayFinder notes, it gives you all the keys and modes that fit. Top matches come first! Filter results by scale type, listen to any scale (or note) with a tap, look up keys by name, and more. 
-
Maybe these notes are a melody you came up with, and you want to know what key they're in—to help you write another section of the song, pick chords, or write some harmonies. WaayFinder is here to help!
-
How does it work? Let's say you enter the notes C, G, and A. The best match is C major—but it could also fit A minor, G major, and more. WaayFinder shows you all those possibilities, but highlights the best matches so you know where to start.

WaayFinder is made in Toronto, Canada by Ten Kettles—the one-person (and two dog) company behind Waay, hearEQ, and Beat Mirror. I deeply believe in empowering *you* to make your best music, and that approach imprints itself into all my apps. There are no ads, no sneaky data collection, just honest music education. :)

This is the Waay

By far the fastest way to figure out the key of a song AND help you learn the scales. The clean design and accessible features are very appealing.

If you aren’t already near your instrument of choice, tap any note in the app to hear it. Transcribing for a non-technical musician has never been easier!

So Very Useful!

This is a perfect utility for musicians of any level, especially if you’re a songwriter or composer with an intuitive sense of musicality, but a limited knowledge of music theory. And Ten Kettles is a thoughtful developer who designs apps with beautiful—and logical—interfaces. I highly recommend all their apps.
