Great app!
It is awesome, it lets you play the tab and follow along with it
Amazing app
If you play guitar from tabs you need this app. 6 star kind of thing.
Best Tab and Notation App Available!
Agile Partners makes the best guitar apps available, bar none! And it is the best supported app on my devices! TabToolkit is the best guitar tab app available! Tab, notation and fingerboard display is the best available, and I have most all of them. iPad version gives you a nice multi line view of what is coming. The A/B looping lets you repeat a section, important for difficult, fast sections. It has a metronome, essential for the serious player. It has all kinds of tracks. You can still surf the web for tabs, but the best part for me is their ever growing tab store. You don't have to spend valuable playing time sorting out poor quality tabs.

You don't have to buy tabs! But u can...
Some reviews here seem to be of the mistaken, yes mistaken, belief that once you buy this app you also need to buy tabs from the tab toolkit tab store. Those people need to dig a little more before posting erroneous reviews. The fact is, you CAN buy tabs if you want, from an in-app store that's been added but there's nothing that says you have to. You can still use the inbuilt web browser to find free tabs on the net just like you ALWAYS could. The tab store is an added OPTION. I really wish people would criticize apps legitimately instead of showing their own inability to be thorough since there are enough apps out there that do need it. This ain't one of them! I've had it for a while and the developers have continued to update it and make it better over the years. It's solid, stable and I use my iPad all the time to learn tabs now. Much better than a desktop when you can put the iPad on a stand. Keep up the good work!

Why are people so opposed to paying for things?
These tabs are well worth $0.99. They have full notation and tab for all instruments (even the flute in Stairway!). If you would prefer some hack job tab that's completely inaccurate, go somewhere else. These are professionally made and worth the price, plus you aren't violating copyright.
good app but I wish....
Good app but bummer to pay for each song. Wish app offered a list of free songs within the app and not have to look outside for them. Wish app offered more songs because it's song list is limited. I also wish app had the option to listen to a brief sample of each song while browsing for new stuff. And since I have to pay for each digital downloaded song, I wish app allows me to print them too. But I like using this app...all features are as described above. Tab Toolkit has the best version of "More than Words." Good stuff. Not a 5 star...but I wish it were.

Good for viewing tabs on iPad
If you have an iPad, Tab Toolkit is a good app for viewing any of the enormous wealth of completely free guitar pro tabs out there. You can download tabs directly from the net (just google for "free guitar pro tabs" there are plenty of sites). In earlier incarnations of Tab Toolkit, I had trouble with power-tab format files, but guitar pro format seems to work just fine, with minor caveats.
Playback works for very simple scores. But when notation gets complex (e.g. repeats ), the playback makes mistakes. This is probably dependent on the format of tab being played. I have not purchased any of the tabs in the store, but I expect they probably play back more accurately.
The store selection feels limited and stocked with primarily pop and rock.

Rip off
Paid for this when all tabs were included, now I have to pay more to see what used to be free??? Or really what I paid for initially!!!
Don't buy. It's pointless
I bought this app before they came out with the store. Now you have to buy all tabs. Big surprise... Ppl desperate to line their pockets with cash. While not as functional, the ultimate guitar app still provides tabs which do NOT have to be purchased.
essential tool for learning your favorite songs
I have owned this great piece of software since the first version, and as a beginner guitar player, it has helped me immensely in exploring songs by my favorite artists, and learning how to play great licks, riffs and whole songs. the interface is super-intutitive and all major functions are there that you would expect from a tablature app. i really like being able to slow down the song to better understand how certain song parts are played, and there is also a metronome built in to help you stay in rhythm. You can setup loops to practice certain song parts over and over until you master them. If you own AmpKit, you can put that app in multi-tasking mode and then hear yourself play along with the tabbed song in TabToolKit, which is seriously a killer feature. With the most recent version, these guys have also added a tab store, so no more looking for tabs on the Internet that may or may not be accurate! Big props to these guys for a great app that enjoys continued support and powerful updates that make it even more of a value. Buy without reservation.
