Love this app

This app is making the learning experience fun. I don’t know if it’s the best way to learn this instrument but it makes me wanna play all the time and keep picking up my ukulele. And that’s a darn good start. Couldn’t recommend it his app enough!

Good but something is wrong

I loved the about 30 minutes of when I could use this app. After getting to Chords 1 after the video, I could no longer access the missions. I thought, “okay, it’s doing that thing where it won’t let you play all day” and I got off the app. 24 hours later, I tried to practice again, and still the same problem. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the app to see if it was just a glitch but I still can’t play. I’m not going to pay for the premium plan just to do the things I was doing before. If this doesn’t get solved I’m going to delete the app, and for good this time.

Very disappointed

All the songs that used to be free are now part of the subscription. You can hardly do anything for free. The challenges that were fun used to be free, but now the songs used for the challenges are part of the subscription. I searched and I couldn’t find one free song to play. Songs that used to be free and that were used in the lessons aren’t free anymore so you can’t even complete the lesson. The price for the subscription is ridiculously high too. I guess the only thing that you can do for free is the tuner. I’m very disappointed.

Good but could be cheaper

I look really hard for a good ukulele app and this app was sensational it was very good for your basics but the melodies are the only things you can do when you finish them ( there is only 4 songs) I love this app but it could be cheaper for a year! ( it is $150 a year!)

Thanks for the review! If you want to experience Yousician without interruptions and limitations, we recommend to start a free premium trial. You'll then unlock all the features and can also cancel any time before the trial expires if you feel like Yousician may not be the right tool for you.

Listen Up People

AHHH!!! I hate this so much, first off, the tuner. the tuner says i have to tune wayyy up. but my own personal tuner says my strings are perfectly tuned. AND it kept saying that i was playing a wrong string. secondly, the teaching in the beginner stages it's just a 2/1 minute video. barely taught me anything except how to hold the ukulele. and when your doing the open notes, i'm doing it just fine but it says it's wrong. then i yell saying i hate it and i did the open note. how did that even happen?!?! it's bad and i think the singing classes are better.

Thanks a lot for that! Keep on rocking!

Amazing definitely recommend you try!

It’s an amazing app but the thing that holds it back is that you have to pay loads of money for it I am currently using the free trial and I think as a recommendation to the company you should make the lessons and all songs by ‘the Yousicians’ free as you could then learn the ukulele then the person might buy premium so they can play there favourite songs. Anyway great app well done 👍

Hello! Thank you for your positive feedback! Keep on rocking :)

Good gamified learning

Teaches chords and picking melody basics well, the lessons are gamified. 10 minutes a day free or pay. Gets hard after level 5. Worth paying for a year.

We really appreciate you for taking the time to share your feedback :D We’re excited to read that you’re having a great time with Yousician. Jam on!

Why the change?

Didn’t know why they made a second app for this, it was a lot better to just keep it all in one. Instead of me downloading it wasting space. Ig delete the main app to download this Ukulele one.
