Lost the audio
I just purchased the latest version 2 days ago. Everything worked initially but now the audio (metronome and strum) does not work. The metronome and the tuner are frozen as well. Supposedly, the audio was fixed in this version on Dec 17, 2012. Don't think so! Also, the Contact Technical Support link in the App results in a File not found error 404. Assuming these issues will be resolved, I like the potential of the App functions.
Update: Technical Support quickly resolved all but the "Contact Technical Support link in the App results in a File not found error 404" issue. The App is working correctly and I find it very useful for chord and scale lookup, the metronome is handy in a pinch, the tuner is a bit sensitive to other surrounding sounds so it works best in a quiet environment. And as for the Teachers/Stores Near Me, I really don't see this being useful for my purposes.

Great app, but not working anymore
I bought this app quite some time ago. I used it quite frequently until recently when an update caused the Chords and Chord Finder to stop working. No sounds are produced at all when strumming the chords. I'm hoping the developers will address this bug in an upcoming release. I'll give it 5 stars if they fix it.

Chord finder
I wanted one thing - to be able to identify chords that I play and don't know. Works fine unless you want to find a bar chord. Really?! I really would not have bought this if I has known it wouldn't identify bar chords. I wrote to support on the website and never got an answer.
UPDATE: I got them on the phone and George patiently & cheerfully helped me understand how I could figure out what I need. He was so smart he had to dial back his intelligence to help me because of my ignorance about music. Thanks.

Tuner is broken
The chord finder is brilliant, really really useful.
But the tuner is broken. Reads about 3 quarters of a tone sharp (ie says a flat-tuned F# when I play a low E). That's using an iPhone 4S. If you can fix that it'll be the best guitar related app out there

Good, Free tool
Very handy. As far as I can tell, it combines their other apps into a free package. (I don't have the others, so I could be wrong.)
Metronome seems spot on (didn't leave it playing for very long).
Feature I would like added would be the ability for the tuner to produce a pitch (440, or whatever) in addition to the passive tuning it currently offers.
Edit: as noted by some others here, the tuner is out of tune. The A is exactly 440, but the other strings are off by 5-10 Hz.

One of my favorite apps
How are there not more reviews of this? I've been enjoying this app for years and I show it to all the guitarists I meet.
Amazing
This app is worth the cost of the phone. The tuner is awesome. Us edit in the store. Any scale or chord up and down. Tap a new note and see the chord change. Train ur ear. It needs an auto setting to hear the chords or scales continuous. 2 bucks wow!!
Pretty good, but not perfect
This thing has tons of great features, but the Tuning setting isn't available for the chord dictionary. I want to be able to look up how to play chords in any tuning not just standard. The setting is available for the scales and the chord finder though.
Will be much better when you can change the tuning on every mode.

Great
I would give this five stars if it had a poly rhythm metronome in it but it is an awesome app. After looking at some of the other tool kits for guitar I chose this one because it has all the scales you want and the option to play chords in different positions.
Please add the poly rhythm metronome :)

Fantastic
Truly this app is my most used thing on my iphone, worth every penny, anyone in the market for a surprisingly accurate tuner should by now means hesitate in buying this app, also not too bad chord finder aswell
