Great but needs a UI refresh
Content is great, tutors are great, but this app is awful.
Great content terrible interface
Using these lessons on a computer presents reasonably well. The video can be viewed in parallel to the tabs. On an iPhone, however, the tablature is too small to read while the video is going. Even selecting full screen tabs retains the far too small print, forcing you to zoom in on selections and dragging manually. This is a terrible way to learn anything as 50% of your time is spend fiddling with the app instead of PLAYING YOUR GUITAR. Lessons content is fantastic.

App doesn’t keep track of your progress
The guitar tricks App has several challenges but the most frustrating quirk is the App doesn’t keep track of your progress. Each time you open the App it thinks you’re starting from the beginning and that you haven’t completed any courses
Can’t access Apple TV app
As an intermediate player, the lessons I’ve sampled so far have actually been pretty good, introducing alternative approaches that could lead the way out of some well-established ruts. That’s great.
What’s not so great is that even though this app is advertised to function on three platforms, iPhone, iPad and Apple TV, it’s impossible to log into the Apple TV app. I created and account with the “sign in with Apple” option, bought an annual subscription, and created full login credentials.
On the Apple TV app, two options for access are presented. The simplest (which works well for other apps I use) is the “restore subscription” option. This is supposed to simply recognize that my signed-in Apple ID already has a subscription purchased via my iPhone, and install the same credentials on the Apple TV app. Try this, and it does nothing. The other option is to login with your Guitar Tricks username and password. Try this, and it says the credentials are invalid.
I submitted a help request to the Guitar Tricks “contact support” option in the iPhone app, and never got a response.
So, two stars for some good lessons, but no more than that for one of three platforms being inaccessible, and zero response from customer help.
