Still selling app but developer(s) not supporting fixing any reported bugs
Greetings. Tab toolkit is a very good app and it still works but it needs some love and attention. There has been NO development on this app for years (and years). The interface needs to be updated to current iOS not iOS 7 or whenever the last time you worked on it. This app could be WAY better if you updated the interface and added a few more features. Searching could be better and there should be some way to make and save “Playlists”. It is nice to have filters for Song Name, Songs by Artist, Browse Artists, Recently Added and Favorites but in this day and age that is not enough. If user needs to create multiple playlists or collections they should easily be able to. If you update the app with new features and modernize the UI I would gladly pay for a (one time purchase) upgrade. Just because your app still compiles and people still purchase it doesn’t mean you should not keep it up to date and modern. I am begging you to please update this app. Even with its age I believe it is better than Guitar Pro … but it doesn’t compare to Guitar Pro’s more modern display. Guitar Pro lacks ability to easily filter songs (Name, Artist, Favs, etc). I believe you would get a lot of people upgrading or purchase the app if you took some time to update it. this app.

Likely an abandonware
Developer likely abandoned this app. Last update 7 years ago!
Good app, it can be greater
I like the app a lot. However, an update with a better variety of music in the Tab store would be great!
Time for an update!
This is so sad. This was my go to tab app since it was first published. Now there are too many bugs and is not worth my patience. Stay away from buying this app unless they update it some time soon!!
hasn't been updated in years
Does not work with new versions of iOS and hasn't been updated in years. DO NOT BUY
Still selling app but developer(s) not supporting fixing any reported bugs
Have loved this app am am extremely disappointed that the developer(s) don’t feel it is worth maintaining it (look and feel changes), and adding some cloud sync option so when there is a problem the user does not loose the 1000’s of song they have entered. Reported a huge bug in June 2021 and developer did not even have the courtesy to get back to me. I like this app better than the Guitar Pro iOS app but seems I might have to migrate to that app even though it is not as good because currently my TabToolkit app is not usable because it crashed and now it only comes up unside down so is unusable on an iPad with a keyboard. To fix problem I probably have to delete app and re-download it. Problem is I will loose the 1000 songs I have imported. Not sure how to recreate all the files and then each song that has a Ukulele as an instrument needs to be manually edited after download because Ukulele comes in as the wrong instrument (Spinosa). If developer reads this please consider maintaining this app.

This app doesn’t work on iPhone X
Stunned that’s it’s even in the App Store - it won’t even open on my iPhone and repeated messages to the developer on their website have just been ignored. Just wish I could give it 0 stars
Worthless
This app is completely unnecessary. The website claims that it will view text tab file formats. The only thing it does is display the text file as a *text file*. You probably already have many ways of doing this, and there are *many* other apps for reading rich formats. If you’re trying to find a good app for viewing text tab files on your iPad or iPhone, look elsewhere.

Bug fix needed
Generally have loved this app but have been having a problem when I go to download some tab from a tab website. As soon as I land on a website the app randomly gives me a “Successfully downloaded and installed message” labeling this new ‘tab’ f_##. When I then go to open this new tab it’s gibberish. Have uninstalled and reinstalled and the problem remains. This will become a deal breaker and will result in me no longer using this app and no longer recommending it. Bug fix please.

Don't let this classic become abandonware!
This is still a fantastic app, but the browser is now so out of date that the download function has become unusable, which leaves all its other wonderful functionality out of reach for new users because they can't download the files in the first place. I hope this isn't the end of the road for an app that has never been equalled in its support for different kinds of static and playable tab files.

Unsupported
It looks like the app is no longer supported and hasn’t been updated in years. It’s basically useless now.
Severly outdated app
App is outdated so i removed my previous review since i believe it may lead to buyers purchase the app that may not work properly on their current version of ios due to it not being optimized.
okay but “download tabs” is broken
This app has potential to be really good, BUT, ...
The tab store is very limited and quite expensive compared to other options.
The “download tabs” via web browser function is broken. When Googling it will download non-existant tabs, named f_1, f_2, …. If I try to download a Guitar Pro tab from my DropBox, TabToolKit refuses to do it. If you try to download a Guitar Pro tab from ulimate-guitar.com it works fine as long as you don’t have the Ultimate Guitar app installed. If installed, the browser will open that app rather than giving the file to TabToolKit. The “download tabs” feature also has some annoying user interface design warts, even when it does work.
TabToolKit would be a great app if only I could easily get tabs into it.

Finally found what I have been looking for in an app!
Finally, I have been in search of an app that could give me what I wanted and I have found the one. You guys have done a great job in giving us the features and simplicity that make an app a success in my book. I have been using a program on my pc but always wanted to something that offered me more and was portable; phone and iPad. I hope others can benefit from this and help their practices. Thanks for your hard work and great app!!

New bug in latest update
I appreciate that there has finally been an update. Unfortunately there was a new major bug introduced with this version.
The bug is when you open up a tab and then exit the tab you are brought back to the top of the list of all of your tabs. In the past when you exit out of the tab you would be in the same position in your list of tabs that you were before. This is a big inconvenience when you have a lot of tabs and would like to maintain the same position in your tabs list that you were in when you enter the tab.
Please fix this bug.
Also. Will you be updating to 64 bit? If not there is no way to use this app in iOS 11. Please update it. Thank you.

Sound is irritating
Really only works if you purchase tab from ta toolkit. Poor selection of available songs. You can down load tab from the internet how ever it is hard to do and why bother? Just use your web browser to view it
WAS Disappointed
How do I get the tab I paid for or get my money back?
I had created an account during my first tab purchase and while my iTunes was charged the tab did not appear in tab toolkit.
Wrote to support and they fixed the problem fast. Thanks Andrey.

Decent App
Been using the app for a few years and it's served my purpose! However the app could be improved by adding an adjustable scrolling function for the music!
Best tab app
Been using this app on my iPad for years. Don't know what I'd do without it
