## Review summary

Users praise Odesi Chords for fast, easy MIDI idea generation and a clean UI, plus MIDI export to DAWs and a variety of progressions. Recurrent drawbacks include a strict four-bar limit, incomplete or flaky MIDI export (bass missing, save/export issues), and pricing/licensing concerns (overpriced upgrades and cross-device purchase problems). They also seek desktop-parity features like melody editing and more scales, longer loops, and better syncing across devices. Overall, strong concept with notable workflow benefits but significant limitations.

### Pros

- Very fast MIDI idea generation (chords, bass, and drums).
- MIDI export capability to use in other DAWs (great for workflow).
- Simple, intuitive UI that stays out of the way and is easy to use.
- Wide variety of progressions and rhythms to spark ideas.
- On-the-go sketching tool for quick ideas (portable mobile workflow).

### Cons

- Four-bar/4-measure limit severely restricts song structure.
- MIDI export is incomplete or unreliable (bass not exported; occasional save/export issues).
- Upgrades are overpriced and cross-device licensing/purchase restoration is problematic.
- Missing features compared to the desktop version (melody editing, more scales, longer loops, and easier MIDI note editing).
