  • Moves very quickly for beginners

    It’s a good app it helps me learn how to play but it moves really fast for beginners who are still trying to figure out how to move their fingers fast enough for the lesions and if you try to slow it down it automatically makes you fail by removing the stars at the top of the screen. Also as someone who learns for free you only get 4 lesions before it stops you from playing any other lesson. Because of things like that, I can’t even learn some of the cool songs they have on there like Black Sabbath and guns and roses. I wish they could fix it and make it more beginner friendly cause once you finish the basic skills course it throws you in the deep end to fend for yourself.
  • Overall Solid

    Overall, it’s a very good app for learning guitar. The lessons are solid and the built in “amp” is fine. If you want to change your sound up and play on MacOS, try using a few of the Neural DSP plugins out there. The downside, the app will gaslight you occasionally. The devs will deny it but it is true. I’m hardwired through a Focusrite, I’m in tune and have had the app on multiple occasions not recognize a picked note or a bend. It also struggles picking up notes on longer notes. Sustain is good on my guitars. Finally, once you get further into more complicated things like legato slides, etc, the app does you a huge disservice by immediately throwing you into the etudes at 100% speed. I feel this sets students up with poor expectations that they should be able to immediately play that fast after only a few of the lessons. You can slow it down manually but being thrown in the deep end immediately and expecting to swim when you’re still treading water is very demotivating. Support is pretty responsive. So, there’s that. I’ve written a review about this previously but it has disappeared from the App Store.
  • More options please!

    There is barely any song options! I don’t know any of the song options personally, and I would prefer there to be more choices. Otherwise, great app.

    its constant reminders to upgrade to get pop songs is annoying, already. slamming the door on using it unless it’s updated on demand is seriously f’ed. it’s not like one didn’t pay. finally, everyone should have total access to all proffered lessons, not just those with the talent who can make it thru all lessons in a year. we all pay the same.
  • Most fun guitar app in the store!

    Doesn’t get better than this. Rocksmith+ is terrible and other apps are worse. This is the one!
  • Only thing I’d like added

    By SlinkyDinkyy
    The app is honestly great and the 25$ a month is not a bad price for how much they’re willing to teach you, the only thing I’d like to add is a friends list. I’d like to be able to have friendly competitions with my friends and keep up with each others progress even if we aren’t in the same league. It could also potentially open the door for mobile play sessions amongst players. Otherwise absolutely love the app and plan to continue using it and referring people to it.
  • Love it

    But I’m finding out how much I stink! I need more practice.
  • Up charges!

    By Iwill91
    The premium subscription for 19.99 is misleading when you can’t even access the second lesson without being up charged 4.99.
  • I can’t believe I’m supporting an AI teacher

    I am a teacher and absolutely believe in the power of a face-to-face in person interaction for feedback and encouragement. And that is absolutely the best format to learn in, but my schedule does not allow me to meet with a in person teacher right now and this app has been great. Gibson really has evaluated a good curriculum for the theory and the steps that a learner needs to go through. I already knew how to play chords and basic drumming patterns, but I wanted to move up in my ability to play licks and melodies. This is really been a great tool.
