Just got super good at teaching and super fun definitely recommend if you want to learn guitar, I’m learning acoustic guitar both my older siblings play so I thought I’d give it a go!
I downloaded this app because I’m getting a tune app for my guitar. I didn’t wasn’t really that good so I tried it. It’s really good teach you step-by-step how to play the guitar you can choose the speed and it’s a self pace. It’ll take you back if you miss too many things and then you can just do it again.
I can still access the lessons and practice mode, but I can’t play any songs. Every time I try, the app fails to download the required assets and shows an “Error Downloading Asset” message. This appears to be a server-side issue, not a problem with my device or internet connection. As a paying subscriber, it’s very frustrating that one of the app’s main features is completely unusable.
This would have been a 5 star if I did not have to pay just to learn new chords, techniques and more🤦♂️
It’s been a few days since I got the app but it’s been really helpful. Sure it’s a subscription but it’s cheaper than normal guitar lessons and you can work with your schedule and it has helped me. I would definitely recommend.
The app struggles to read notes properly and the toner is a bit off. however the songs are relatively accurate. I don’t think it’s worth 20 usd a month. It wouldn’t cancel my subscription no mater what I did so I contacted the support and it was resolved quickly and smooth. (Thanks mark)
I learned it fast and I love it,but like do you really need to pay to play at least one song???
It is soo patient with me and when I make a mistake it just starts over and that's how you learn!
As soon as I started, it would not kill my notes at all like it was the point if we can’t even hear it, I enabled my microphone and all that it just doesn’t wanna hear it. It doesn’t matter how loud I string. It just doesn’t wanna hear my guitar.
Needs to be free because I Don’t have money
I just basically picked up a guitar and with simply guitar I can already play the basics
This is one of the worst apps ever made. Do NOT download
