### 3/5 — Guitar

*2026-09-01, version 3.26.0*

Phone is not picking up notes all the time

### 4/5 — Trials

*2026-08-17, version 3.25.3*

I’ll be in the middle of a lesson and the option to start a free trail will pop up. It would be better if it popped up after the lesson is over.

### 2/5 — WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE TUNER!?!?

*2026-08-15, version 3.25.3*

I was doing the tutorial, and the tuner was HORRIBLE!! It didnt work, it repeatedly told me to tighten my string and caused me to pop my string an livid!!!

### 4/5 — Good

*2026-08-12, version 3.25.3*

Really helpful for Quick and slower learners

### 2/5 — Horrible tuner

*2026-08-09, version 3.25.3*

The built-in tuner is horrible and not accurate. It does not identify the string correctly. Lame.

### 4/5 — Just started

*2026-08-06, version 3.25.3*

So far so good but as a woman I really don’t appreciate the first couple of songs we learn to play - they are so misogynistic! Sorry but it’s yuk! Hence taking a star away until you please change those songs!!!

### 2/5 — Do not like the new pop-ups in the app

*2026-08-06, version 3.25.3*

Do not like the forced review and the automatic skip to next song or play the same song every time I finish a song. Also do not like the fact that the library is filled with a bunch of midi backing tracks.

### 5/5 — THE BEST

*2026-08-01, version 3.25.3*

Justin Guitar was the best The seven day free trial was literally the best thing I learned two songs in one day I could never stop.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😃😃😃😃

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-07-30, version 3.25.2*

I have learned and improved so much with this app in a short time and it is so worth it

### 5/5 — Excellent Platform!!

*2026-07-28, version 3.25.1*

My hat is off to you, Mr. Sandercoe! It’s rare to see that perfect balance of empathy, honesty, and encouragement in a course of instruction. Very thorough and very motivating! I wish I could buy you a pint, Sir!

### 4/5 — Tuner

*2026-07-27, version 3.25.1*

Everything has been great except the tuner was a little off.

### 5/5 — Wow so excited

*2026-07-23, version 3.25.1*

Finally! An app that teaches easy! TY Justin. #Hurricane from Oz

### 1/5 — Disappointed, charged up front and then again for a year!

*2026-08-30, version 3.25.3*

Downloaded the app in the basis of a 7 day trial, was charged for one month upfront which Apple refused to refund. At the end of the 7 day trial which I cancelled almost immediately after being wrongly charged I was charged again for a years subscription! 
Avoid this app, it’s fleeced me and seems to be no way to get the money back or cancel it with any confidence. 
Waiting for support to contact me now.

### 1/5 — Paid for a year but never could log in

*2026-08-30, version 3.25.3*

I paid $130 for a year and logging in has never worked.  Cant get hold of support either. This sucks. Help!!!

### 1/5 — TRASH

*2026-08-24, version 3.25.3*

This is horrible it’s locked behind paywalls can’t get a good lesson in without getting something interpreting me about money

### 1/5 — Songs being played on acoustic

*2026-08-23, version 3.25.3*

Not a electric guitar tutorial

### 1/5 — Terrible service

*2026-08-08, version 3.25.3*

I opted for a 7 day free trial and immediately cancelled it. Had the trial and then money was taken from my account. I have contacted Justin Guitar with no response. To add insult to injury, I thought I may as well use the app, but it won’t let me in, stating that I only had the free trial. This account appears to be a rip off. Don’t touch it.

### 1/5 — To slow and not enough learning

*2026-07-30, version 3.25.2*

The app is really slow so it can get irritating and it doesn’t teach you much it just jumps into playing immediately

### 1/5 — 进不去

*2026-07-26*

卡界面一直加载

**Developer response:** 抱歉造成不便！ 麻烦卸载后重新下载或者换个网络呢？

### 1/5 — Needs Rework

*2026-07-24, version 3.25.1*

I tried this because it has a library to play along with. I wasn’t looking for a teacher. Everything was copacetic…well usable for my purposes anyway up until the latest update went into effect. Since the update I know have to navigate through the newest screen congratulating me for my accomplishments and asking if to proceed to next in list. Prior it would automatically move to the next in queue and pause and wait for signal to start. This newest where it just jumps to the next in queue and automatically starts really sux and I don’t like it at all. I can’t possibly in good conscience recommend this to ANYbody unless you can provide a work around so that the program function shuffles random or in numerical sequence and queues to next up and pauses waiting for start by user.
I will explore OTHER options come September.

### 1/5 — Missing basic instruction

*2026-07-18, version 3.25.1*

Jumps from A to D without telling you how to get there. The basic practice lessons make zero sense.

### 1/5 — Will not load

*2026-07-18, version 3.25.1*

I used to love this app back over a year ago when it worked. Reinstalled after buying a lifetime licence and regardless of what I try it will not load. If an app has to put a message up with a link for what to try when this happens, it’s clear this is an inherent issue that indicates poor code in the app. Issues like this will push users it other apps/teachers.

### 5/5 — Playing first chord

*2026-08-30, version 3.25.3*

Great presentation, clear instructions and demonstrations, feedback is simple the graphic gives me confidence to proceed.

### 5/5 — Excellent Platform!!

*2026-08-30, version 3.25.3*

My hat is off to you, Mr. Sandercoe! It’s rare to see that perfect balance of empathy, honesty, and encouragement in a course of instruction. Very thorough and very motivating! I wish I could buy you a pint, Sir!

### 5/5 — Perfect for a novice

*2026-08-28, version 3.25.3*

I’ve been learning so much, and Justin makes sure not to hurry the information and to clearly and patiently communicate

### 5/5 — It’s awesome nothing more, nothing less.

*2026-08-27, version 3.25.3*

🎶🎶🎶

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-14, version 3.25.3*

This app is great, I’ve learned way more than any other method I’ve tried and it’s easy to follow along 90% of the time but the other 10% which is mostly in the videos teaching how to play songs I feel like a lot of the parts after the initial notes and chords start to get rushed explaining them which often gets me lost, then I try and write it all down or find the tabs online which most of them time gets me more confused. So for future reference, slowing down a little teaching through out the whole song and doing more review especially as it gets tougher through the song it would be awesome!

### 5/5 — The perfect guitar teacher

*2026-08-09, version 3.25.3*

Justin’s lessons are exactly how I need to learn. Something that wasn’t available to me years ago when I bought my first guitar and the reason it’s taken until now to properly start my journey. It has opened up a whole new world to me and one that I never thought I’d be able to access. It’s just brilliant. I can’t recommend it highly enough. Thanks.

### 5/5 — First lesson

*2026-08-07, version 3.25.3*

I hope to improve quickly with your help

### 5/5 — Awesome hints for the beginner!

*2026-08-07, version 3.25.3*

Justin does an amazing job and really works on so many great areas and keeps learning so much fun

### 5/5 — Gitaur

*2026-08-06, version 3.25.3*

This is a brilliant app that will help my progress with gitaur

### 5/5 — I’m Inspired!

*2026-08-03, version 3.25.3*

This is the best guitar learning course I have ever encountered.
