### 3/5 — GOOD APP, BUT...

*2026-07-29, version 6.2.0*

This is a great app for learning and practicing, but PLEASE, same as you OTHER app DRUM BEATS, could you please ADD IRig Blue Turn footswirch control??

### 2/5 — Recent updates ruined it

*2025-11-18*

No landscape anymore (totally essential), popups spamming me to get beginning lessons every time I open it.   Navigation and store purchases are not so obvious or easy to use.  I’m an experienced player.  I don’t want any of this stuff or any beginning lesson subscriptions.  This app was a fantastic tool for years and I bought every style add-on.  Now, it seems like so many other apps trying to grab beginner dollars.  Maybe I’m not the market anymore.  Experienced players, look elsewhere for something you can rely upon.

### 2/5 — Only works in portrait mode

*2025-10-28, version 6.1.6*

Despite the landscape screens shown on the app store, the app only works in portrait mode.

### 3/5 — Assinatura

*2025-10-28*

Eu já sou assinante há anos agora tudo mudou terei que pagar novamente

**Developer response:** Parece um erro — assinantes não deveriam precisar pagar novamente. Por favor, envie um e-mail para support@ninebuzz.com usando o botão “Report a Problem” na página de Configurações do app, e vamos resolver isso rapidamente.

### 4/5 — Really great but….

*2025-01-01*

This is just about the best app I’ve found for learning scales etc but being colour blind, I have difficulty with the amount of colours on the fretboard. If there was an option to turn off the blue notes and the fret locations to leave just the notes it would be perfect.

### 3/5 — Purchase gone when app updated

*2023-06-04, version 4.0*

Hi.

My purchases have disappeared when the app updated (not sure which update the went on), and i am not able to restore them.

Please can you sort this.

Thankyou

### 1/5 — Parou de funcionar

*2023-02-19*

Comprei esse app, paguei e agora parou de funcionar no iPad, já enviei e-mail para o desenvolver e nada. Absurdo pagar e não poder usar. Seguramente a Apple tem culpa também. Depois da atualização para o 16… parou, ou seja o desenvolvedor também não atualizou. CUIDADO

**Developer response:** Olá, obrigado pela compra e desculpe pelo transtorno. Atualize seu aplicativo para a versão mais recente e veja se o corrigimos. Se tudo parecer bom, seria incrível se você pudesse atualizar sua revisão com base na nova versão. Caso contrário, responda aqui para obter mais ajuda. Obrigado pelo seu tempo e divirta-se!

### 1/5 — Fantastic

*2023-02-19, version 3.5*

Doesn’t work !!! Closed everything and even restarted but only get a momentary flash of the start screen. A Total Chocolate Teapot 🤦‍♂️

### 1/5 — No updates in forever. Now it just crashes.

*2023-02-12, version 3.5*

I bought all the upgrade packs some years ago and it was exactly what I needed. However, I hadn’t used it in a while. However, a few days ago I downloaded the Update. On opening. it just crashes. I also so that the last version history is showing as 8 years ago. So I guess the developer has abandoned the app. Don’t waste your time or money. Find an app that is more current.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t load

*2023-02-06, version 3.5*

I purchased Guitar Jam Tracks Scale Trainer for $4.99. The app downloaded to my iPad fine however when I click the app icon the app briefly opens then immediately closes and returns me to my iPad Home Screen. Plenty of memory and nothing is set to block this app from loading. All other apps that I’ve purchased work fine. I’ve request a refund from Apple.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2023-02-06*

Garbage what a ripoff

### 1/5 — Jam track

*2023-01-23, version 3.5*

Would not work on my iPad. It opens for a second but then disappears. I’ve deleted the app then redownloaded but no luck. Never had an app do that.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2023-01-17, version 3.5*

I can no longer open the app.  Crashes every time.  Please fix!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-01-15, version 3.5*

Straight up doesn’t work at all with most recent iPad January 2023.

### 1/5 — Seems to be abandoned.

*2023-01-14, version 3.5*

Not working on iOS 16. Quits seconds after starting. Sad as I've used it for many years. Hopefully they fix it.

### 1/5 — Was free but now it’s fee

*2026-01-21, version 6.1.8*

Terrible. Update. This app sucks. Terrible 0/10. All thy want is your money.

### 1/5 — All good things come to an end

*2025-11-23, version 6.1.8*

This was a great app in its day, very easy to use and affordable.

Buying the tracks you liked was easy and affordable.

But all good things come to an end.

The app,  as almost all have, was moved to subscription based membership. 

It is now ridiculously high priced especially for what you get.

Your far better off to just spend your money ar Udemy or Patreon....

### 1/5 — Nach Update alles noch mal kaufen

*2025-10-18*

Ich habe die App damals gekauft und auch bezahlt. Nach dem Update soll ich noch einmal ein Abo abschließen. Das macht für mich keinen Sinn mehr.

**Developer response:** Hallo Joerg, entschuldige die Umstände. Das ist ein Fehler. Du solltest kein Abonnement abschließen müssen, um die App zu nutzen, da du ein bestehender Kunde bist. Bitte kontaktiere support@ninebuzz.com , damit wir das richtigstellen können.

### 1/5 — Was free but now it’s fee

*2025-10-09, version 6.1.2*

Terrible

### 1/5 — Update

*2025-09-09*

Nach dem letzten Update,eine einzige Enttäuschung.
Die alte Version war übersichtlicher.
Auf dem IPad jetzt nur noch im Hochformat und Abo Angebote.
Schade

**Developer response:** Hallo Boebfried,
danke für dein Feedback und entschuldige bitte die Enttäuschung nach dem letzten Update.
Die Querformat-Ansicht (Landscape) wird bald wieder verfügbar sein – wir wissen, wie wichtig sie vielen Nutzern ist.
Gleichzeitig hat das Update viele neue Funktionen und Verbesserungen gebracht, die den Nutzwert der App deutlich erhöhen.
Trotzdem denken wir nicht, dass diese vorübergehende Änderung eine 1-Stern-Bewertung rechtfertigt – mit allem Respekt.

Viele Grüße,
Das JamTracks+ Team

### 1/5 — Drains battery even when not in use

*2023-04-28, version 3.5*

What is it doing?

### 1/5 — App is broken and no longer loads

*2023-03-31, version 3.5*

If fixed 5 stars

### 1/5 — Not working

*2023-03-14, version 3.5*

I did really like this app and found it really useful however it’s now stopped working. Ive lost count of how many times I’ve cancelled it then reinstalled it to fire it up. Nothing is working.

### 1/5 — Absturz auf iPad Air M1

*2023-03-13*

Das Programm stürzt leider auf dem iPad mit M1 Chip und iOS 16.3.1 immer ab und ist daher nicht zu gebrauchen. Schade. Ich hoffe,es kommt ein Update.

**Developer response:** Hey, vielen Dank für Ihren Kauf und entschuldigen Sie die Mühe. Bitte aktualisieren Sie Ihre App auf die neueste Version und prüfen Sie, ob wir sie repariert haben. Wenn alles gut aussieht, wäre es großartig, wenn Sie Ihre Rezension auf der Grundlage der neuen Version aktualisieren könnten. Wenn nicht, antworten Sie hier, um weitere Hilfe zu erhalten.

### 5/5 — UNDERRATED,BEST APP EVER

*2025-08-12, version 6.0.1*

Was introduced to be my music teacher,was a little skeptical at first since I’m so used to a human being helping me rather than an app but I must say this app does as much sometimes even better,learned so many new notes and tricks with this app,great investment

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2025-08-11, version 6.0*

My son loves this app
and practices everyday with it - these challenges are really
pushing him to complete everything!

### 5/5 — Top

*2023-08-05, version 3.5*

When I was growing up if something like this was around...but it's never too late.love it👍🎶🎶🎶🎶

### 5/5 — Os 16

*2023-03-20*

I love this application, but i can't use it with the upgrade OS 16…

Do you can setting this upgrade of the application?

Thank you!

### 5/5 — Top mais MAJsvp

*2023-02-12*

Car Elle se coupe a l’ouverture…

### 5/5 — Rating Based on usage with 5th Gen ipad Pro 12.9"

*2022-12-11*

Even though my rating shows 5 stars this is based on my experience with the 5th gen iPad Pro 12.9".  

Immediately crashes and shutdown on 2022 ipad pro 12.9".  Giving 1 star due to this. Developer was nice enough to contact me via apple with info that a fix is coming out in about 1 month.

**Developer response:** Hi Jarexx, sorry for the trouble. We're in the process of fixing the app right now. ETA 1 month. Thank you in advance for your patience. If you'd like, take a look at our other apps and if there are any that look interesting to you, drop us a line and we'll set you up with a free promo code. Regards --> support@ninebuzz.com

### 5/5 — Really useful practice tool

*2022-11-05, version 3.5*

Basic and does what it says 
That’s all we need ..}

### 5/5 — Doubt you’ll find better for the price

*2022-10-28, version 3.5*

Great tool for learning to solo comfortably in all keys in multiple styles. Sure, variable speed would be nice, and I would expect a price hike to accompany that. But I’m not a guitar god, so I’m good with it just how it is for the price.

### 5/5 — Happy with this

*2022-09-23*

Very happy with this. Easy to jam and follow the scale shapes.  (Not working with latest iPadOS beta though!)

### 5/5 — Great guitar practice app

*2022-08-15*

I love this app to practice making real music as opposed to just practicing scales
It helps me be much more musical, having to think about feel and dynamics 
I totally recommend to any practicing guitarist
