A new app from the maker of Chord Detector. Here's the description:

Chord Tutor uses chord detection technology developed for our Chord Detector App to let you know how accurately you played each chord. The App rates your accuracy and speed for each chord, giving you a 3 star rating.
Select “Chord Practice” from the Chord Tutor welcome screen and after a five second countdown you will be presented with a chord, you then have 10 seconds to play the chord on your instrument. The App listens to what you play and once the time is up will rate you on how quickly and accurately you played the chord.

24 major and minor chords?
It looks like this app just deals with the very basic chords that beginners pick up within the first few weeks of learning guitar.
It would need to cover a lot more than that to be useful to anyone but a complete beginner.
How is an A Major chord "medium" difficulty?
I'm the developer of Chord Detector and Chord Tutor and I would like to address these two very good points if I may.
The main target audience for Chord Tutor is the novice musician just starting out. However we have heard that more experienced musicians are enjoying the game aspect of the app.
The new version of the app (v1.1.0) now includes 48 difference chords and more chords will be on the way as bolt on chord packs.
Regarding the A Major chord, the A Major chord is actually part of the Easy difficulty category however the Medium category includes medium difficulty chords plus Easy category chords. That is the reason it showed up when playing with difficulty set to Medium. I agree that screenshot wasn't the best choice.
