★★★★★ "it's a fun app which is like a game, to learn playing the guitar there are better sources out there, the issue I've got however is that 90% of my favourite songs got removed from the app so I don't see a point in using it anymore" - larihopo

★★★★ Martim Nunes 7/4/2026 v5.34.1
I bought a year of premiun thinking this would be a great learning app, but it is just a ridiculous catfish, theres not really famous songs that you would like to learn, the audio reception of notes is horrible, and there are ridiculously long musics that are just impossible to get 3 gold stars, also the only few things i've learned were shown wrong and make every beginner be horrible at guitar. I only think i learned something from the grueling non-stop repetition of songs to get them perfect.
★★★★ Cheyanne White 7/4/2026 v5.33.1
Had a year subscription starting in December of 2025. Learned all I could, the app was fantastic. Canceled it so it wouldn’t charge my card in December, as life got in the way, so I wouldn’t have to worry about it anymore. Well, according to Google Play, I still am subscribed to the premium version of the app until December, but Yousician? THEY couldn't care less. I lost access to everything premium, and a pop up saying to subscribe again to gain access. Love seeing greedy companies! DON'T BUY
★★★★ Madiot Raphaël 7/4/2026
bad learning and data collecting
★★★★ phantom joshua 7/3/2026 v5.33.1

★★★★ Suresh Sithillaya 7/3/2026

★★★★ Monica Dumbah 7/3/2026
l hate this app it broke my guitar help me
★★★★ Loonacy 7/3/2026
don't work uninstalling it
★★★★ Indigo Nelson 7/1/2026 v5.34.0
When I was tuning, it ended up making one of the strings break. The tutorials do NOT help. And the app does not hear my strings during the tutorials. Don't recommend.
★★★★ Deaken Hollis 7/1/2026 v5.33.1
doesn't hear the notes right and said every time I'd strum was wrong
★★★★ Molly 6/30/2026
SUCKS
★★★★ SubStandard 6/30/2026
horrible app, loads sideways and is litterally just bloat. I shouldnt need to sign up for anything on a guitar tuning app. if you want to tune a guitar this is not the app for you.
★★★★ Sandesh Voice 6/30/2026
worst app, don't use this .time waste
★★★★ Killian 6/29/2026 v5.33.1
The whole app needs a subscription it's basically only good for tuning don't buy the subscription it's a scam if it didn't need a subscription I would say 5 stars at this point just learn off of tiltok
★★★★ Alford Daimari 6/29/2026
totally bad , 😡😡 iam playing but not capturing my sound , simply i punch my phone 😩
★★★★ Michael Dean 6/29/2026 v5.33.1
I don't want to finish the basics! I don't need basics! let me explore the app!!!
★★★★ Samuel Conley 6/28/2026 v5.33.1
Get a new cover singer, and add an option to turn the voice off. PLEASE
★★★★ ϟ ꕶᎻᎪᎠᎧᎳ ϟ 6/26/2026 v5.32.0
very bad experience 😞
★★★★ Sura Abigail Marie Burbank 6/26/2026 v5.33.1
the subscription pricing is BS, if you can't afford a year's subscription you pay double for the same lessons. Way to rip off people who can't afford a year's worth in one payment.
★★★★ Lily Ralte 6/23/2026
charges money don't download
★★★★ charli toms 6/23/2026
makes you pay after about 5 minutes or else you can't proceed further.
★★★★ Dominic 6/22/2026
doesn't listen too any of the notes I play refuses too lick up any audio that isn't speaking and then proceeds too tell me my bass is too loud when it won't even pick up the notes
★★★★ Robert B. 6/22/2026 v5.33.1
what happened to the song titles? yeah, great, In recently played list, I get basic melody and artist but to what song? Fix this please. app was great before, fire who ever thought of this idea, they suck!
★★★★ Kamran Manouchehrnia 6/22/2026 v5.29.1
This is an embarrassing time for your corporation. I have the Yousician app for 6 years. after one year I cancel the account. ever since I was looking for a way to contact your office to stop the payment. you made it impossible to contact anyone responding. you just ignore old accounts and keep taking advantage of having access to my account. I don't appreciate your dishonest business and I take it to court.
★★★★ Nirmala Dahal 6/21/2026 v5.33.0
I have been using this app since 1 month this app wants us to pay for almost playing all the beginners stuff don't get this app it sucks and it gives you to tune your guitar only after a week of using this app
★★★★★ larihopo 7/3/2026 v5.33.0
it's a fun app which is like a game, to learn playing the guitar there are better sources out there, the issue I've got however is that 90% of my favourite songs got removed from the app so I don't see a point in using it anymore
★★★★★ Smoke 6/29/2026
i chose "casual shredder' because i play pretty good if i say so myself, and this app is teaching me to play one single string. not even on a fret. and i think it's pretty sad that everything is "pay to play" basically
★★★★★ Antonio Helson 6/26/2026
not good
★★★★★ ZB. K Niya 6/23/2026
App is nice, the only issue is that now you have to have to pay for basic learning and before hand it wasn't an issue. You could go through several lessons and beginner songs without it being locked and actually get a chance to enjoy the experience.
★★★★★ makayla knoles 6/23/2026 v5.33.1
Decided to get back into playing and found everything is behind a pay wall now. The app is easy to use and looks and handles nicely but even songs that used to be free are now locked.
★★★★★ Harshit 6/21/2026
I LOVED the experience and will recommend everyone to try this for once , but one thing that is holding me back from giving it 5 star is the subscription pay wall, everything is locked behind the subscription wall and I can't even learn without paying which is bad.
★★★★★ Sangita Dey 6/20/2026 v5.33.0
yes the app is good teaches us step by step but in my revice it is not able to listen me carefully whereas my device is good it doesn't gas any problem. So it depends on you you will download or not🙃🙃
