User reviews

No support no options

Worked great for one day. Then it no longer would hear notes from my guitar. Checked that volume for guitar on app was up at full volume and nothing. Turned down other two for headphone etc and still nothing. No way to fix it or adjust it, no support help, no contact info. Glad I didn’t pay for the monthly what a waste of time. Too bad started off good but crashed and burned. Stick with major apps.

Needs improvement

I like this app a lot— I downloaded it a while ago and forgot I had it. I just started using it today and have noticed a few things. I’ll start by saying that the app is really helpful in with drilling scales and mastering the fretboard. (If you’re a fender play user like me, that’s something you have to pay *more* for through fender tune, which is ridiculous.) My main issue is that during the games, the screen will fall asleep. That must be fixed, it makes it difficult to actually use the app for its intended purpose.
Another thing is the UI could use updating, the layout is okay but I constantly have to kill the app to get back to the very start. You should also do some tweaking with the lessons, for example: I planned to learn all the notes on the sixth string and then test out of them all, which I could no longer do once I took all the lessons. I found that to be rather counterintuitive.
This is still a good app despite that, and if you’re looking for more technical stuff (esp if you use fender play lol) then this is the way to go. Learning chords is nothing if you don’t know the notes that make them & scales are pretty much the key to playing your own music.
Hope you guys take the time to improve on this because I really like the concept. Thanks
