### 4/5 — Love this Mag!

*2020-09-16, version 9.10.13*

This keeps me learning, helps me to feel in touch, and is great for my chops!

### 4/5 — Great but needs a landscape version

*2020-03-31, version 9.10.13*

Love this digital magazine but let’s have a landscape version for iPad shall we? Thank you!

### 3/5 — Treasures of gypsy jazz world

*2019-04-14, version 9.10.8*

Love the app, plenty of exposure to fine artists and music.
My experience would be improved if I the content were included with cost of subscription.

### 3/5 — Great idea

*2019-02-14, version 9.10.8*

Useful material.

But hate having to
Give my email out for
What should be included 
In the magazine.  THE MUSIC!
I like to hear the licks
and see the music at the same time!
This is rather annoying to
have to deal with.

### 3/5 — GreatApp, no updates

*2018-01-27, version 7.7.2*

I loved the app for the first 6 months, but it seems you are no longer updating the content.  At minimum, a monthly update is required.  If not, I'll simply consume the free Youtube content.

Please update!

### 4/5 — Neat content. Great support.

*2017-10-11, version 7.7.2*

I got this bundled with another Robin Nolan purchase. If you are in the scene, you know who he is and what he does. And, he's been doing it a long time. If you are new to gypsy jazz, this will provide you excellent tips and hip licks to get you started playing in the style quickly. 

The magazine content has well produced videos in digestible lengths featuring all major players on the scene. You can find free samples in both the free mini-issues and also on his Gypsy Jazz Secrets YouTube channel to see the level of quality.

I had some initial problems getting synced up due to the bundle method I used to get it but the support team did a great job working to get me connected. I have a feeling I'll be purchasing more when my subscription runs out.

### 4/5 — Hard to break out of that pentatonic scale ..BUT

*2016-08-20, version 7.7.2*

This app has great info on changing my long long term playing style.  It has steered me into a solid Gypsy Jazz style and Robins JUMPSTART program is terrific.

It has become my go to refresher

### 2/5 — Caution advised

*2015-12-24, version 7.6.3*

I downloaded a free magazine from this app when it first appeared about March 2015 , it seems I now have a subscription running that I'm sure I wouldn't have signed up for and cannot find anywhere in the app to unsubscribe! 
So approach with caution.

### 2/5 — Great but seemingly stopped getting new episodes

*2015-12-24, version 7.6.3*

I really enjoyed this magazine so I subscribed with auto renew.  Currently I have paid for five months with getting only two new episodes. The last one received was 21. 

Great material, but I don't recommend subscribing until more material comes out.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2015-03-17, version 7.6.3*

Robin Nolan has a really approachable style, and clearly knows his subject well. The tutorials are bite-sized, and I find the level of difficulty just right ... needs a bit of work to learn each piece, but achievable.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2015-03-10, version 7.6.3*

It just keeps getting better with every issue - simply the best!

### 5/5 — Great magazine!

*2015-03-06, version 7.6.3*

Really helpful lessons,interviews with superb musicians and particularly the articles on old guitars keep it coming!

### 4/5 — Secrets magazine

*2015-03-02, version 7.6.3*

I love the quick licks by Tim ,Yaakov and the Nolan's transfusion songs have been hours of fun on the old gitane......

App no longer works.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work any more. End of review.

*2023-11-09, version 15.8.202206064*

Doesn’t work any more. End of review.

### 1/5 — Abandoned app?

*2023-10-28, version 15.8.202206064*

Would love for this to work, but doesn’t work at all (crashes on start) on iPhone 12/iOS17.1. 
Developers - Any plans to fix this?

### 1/5 — Poor

*2021-06-30, version 9.10.20*

Good content. Subscribe then you have to restore every time you open it. Poor.

### 1/5 — Hidden app trick purchases

*2016-11-03, version 7.7.2*

Where is the app on my phone or iPad. It's hidden and I can not find to delete. 

I apparently signed up for a trial subscription that will start billing me in seven days.

Worse than that there is one button that will cost you $49.99 if you click it.

### 1/5 — Beware

*2016-09-21, version 7.7.2*

Not a monthly magazine and not as much content as earlier editions. Not worth it imo

### 1/5 — No way to stop subscription

*2016-02-02, version 7.6.3*

No way in settings to end subscription 
I tried to contact but got no response

### 1/5 — Gypsy secrets

*2013-03-17, version 3.2*

Can't open after the intro to 6

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2013-01-06, version 3.0.4*

Downloaded the free previews to test. One gave nothing but a splash page asking for me to subscribe. Others gave nothing but a blank white screen. Very disappointing as I am very interested. Won't subscribe if the free issues won't show what's offered!

### 1/5 — Review
