nothing but technical problems
I do not want to do a stupid onboarding thing, I already know how to play. Don't need to be forced into a introduction tutorial that takes a few years to complete. Ruined the experience as I just want to use the tab music, not learn how to pluck a single open string for 5 minutes.
I despise the shady business practice of "premium plus". I get the point of locking a little bit content behind premium plus, but it feels like 90 percent of app is useless to me unless I go for the highest tier. I cancelled it on the first day I subscribed to your premium. good job devs
don't download this app worst experience*
best
i swear..... what are you even doing with this app? i heard it was free but its not? atleast make the membership cheaper. i am a 11 year old and i have a mom who owes me like 3000 rupees but i cant just speand too much of it here. I was having an amazing experience at the starting and thought it was a very good app but? oh hell NAW
I used to use this app all the time until everything was locked behind premium you cant even play songs or complete lessons without premium horrible app
Charged me despite being a free trial. fraud.
bad registration
I played with the highest note but it count as the lowest note 🤬🤬🤬
Without a membership you basically can't do anything anymore, just tune your guitar. I recently rejoined the app only to learn my favorite songs (that used to be free) were locked and lessons are limited to videos without actual playing practice.
must pay
no fun and poor quality
paywall behind literally everything else besides the beginning. I got through that first part fast and I was furious to see that everything else costs money. unless someone else can find a way, I'm keeping this review.
Não dá para usar mais sem ser premium, todas as músicas são pagas agora.
Please return my money of Rp 653.790,00 I accidentally bought it and I feel like I didn't press to subscribe please to the developer of this app to refund my money
for some reason they got rid of some artists and songs, even the ones that are dmca free, just kinda shady
it was telling me to tune my guitar and guess what IT BROKE MY GUITAR
The app is overall awesome only if you are able to spend money on it, otherwise only a few videos on basics and then... BOOM! you have to pay to learn everything else.
I wanted to like the app but it doesn't hear the notes I play even when I'm playing the right notes. I put the phone right up to my guitar and still nothing. i have to strum the notes line 80x before it registers that I'm hitting the right one.
good app but everything is premium
bro... I alr doing chord C and D but not readed
whats the point of using the app to learn your favorite songs if all the songs are locked by a paywall?? other than that, it's okay
Bit silly of the app to ask your playing level then immediately try to teach you the basics. Like I did all that 20 years ago. I'm not doing it now.
