If you like ukulele’s and need to practice, don’t hesitate. Every time I leave the app, the volume doesn't work. I have to keep on resetting my tab. ### 5/5 — It is really free? How? *2020-08-16, version 2.1* I love Grace VanderWaal, also the Ukulele. My birthday is not near. I felt left out that, I could not play the Guitar or Ukulele. So this game or call it app. It helps you to learn the cords. I RECOMMEND IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Great Virtual app *2020-08-11, version 2.1* I order a real ukelele but I’m practicing chords while it on the way and I have to say for a virtual app this is really great quality it teaches chords,few songs and has a very useful chord library it also has a few different tabs so I can practice finger placement on Chords mode and strumming patterns on Solo mode . I’ll recommend this for practicing but again it’s an app so quick far from the real thing🤩🤩🤩. ### 4/5 — Jamming *2020-06-16, version 2.1* This app is really good I am getting my ukelele tomorrow but there are some bad things to the app it keeps on saying that I have to log in when I do it says delete app and I don’t it jams a lot I like the app because if you don’t have a uke and are saving up this is great to play in the mean time the chords are a little glitchy when I play them but it has a good sound and is accurate to a real ukele . Hope this rate helps to all of you guys. ### 5/5 — I just started playing😋. 🎤emily🎤 *2020-06-03, version 2.1* Hi I am 7 and I like the game I just don’t understand what is about like all the music well.........I REALLY LIKE PLAYING MUSIC!!!!!!!but yeah I can sing 🎤 really good well I can’t always sing 🎶 yeah well bye ### 3/5 — Best out there... *2020-04-30, version 2.1* I love the tone quality and uku-lele-ness of it, but I wish the 3 different kine picks made sense or did something 3 diff ways. Also too confusing to play accurately. Dakine intaface could use some honing. Just not very instrument like to actually play. No better sounding uke app tho! ### 3/5 — Fun *2020-04-18, version 2.1* Just downloaded app, haven’t had much time to learn about, what I’ve experienced so far is very good. After using it for a while will provide another 1-5 star rating ### 3/5 — Umm... *2019-12-29, version 2.1* So I like this app, but I am trying to learn how to play ukulele but this app didn’t help it just has you play stuff on it instead of actually teaching you how to do things. I was looking for an app that would teach you and this is what I found it was like learn how to do this or that. So not the best app for teaching but I like it. ### 4/5 — One thing I would change *2019-11-26, version 2.1* The one thing I would change, or make an option for, is that the strings won’t make sound on the neck or at least the first three frets. Maybe this could be something you could turn on and off? It gets annoying when trying to practice when you don’t have your ukulele but it keeps making noise every time you try to find a chord. Otherwise, I love the app! ### 5/5 — This is the best *2019-11-03, version 2.1* It really helps, but I’m going to get a real when now..don’t worry I will still use this app, it really is amazing ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The heck did I download?! 😠 😢 *2022-07-12, version 2.1* Ok. So I’m on a vacation, and my dad forgot to bring my ukulele as a surprise and we’re 8 hours away from home rn, and I want to make my own original song! But I don’t have my promised ukulele. So I download what seems like a suitable app but NO! It is irritatingly spammy, you have to purchase the ability of gaining five or more chords, the chord library is hecking confusing and it’s just overall junky. Honestly, if I could give this a zero star rating, I would. 😡😡😡 ### 1/5 — Crap *2022-06-11, version 2.1* What a piece of doody. Could not find songs. Could not get to work. No cords. Very confusing and I wasted 1 hour trying figure out app. Junk. Junk. Junk junk. Only thing worked was pick your ukulele. Which means left it right strummer Junk!!!!!! ### 1/5 — FIX AND UPDATE *2021-08-10, version 2.1* I used to have this app a few years ago. I recently downloaded it again and I’ve never had a problem with the app until now. When I open the app everything is black, like my screen went blank. At first I thought it was my phone but it’s the app. It’s like the app doesn’t work anymore!! Please fix this!! The guitar app works fine but the ukulele app doesn’t! :( ### 1/5 — What are you trying teach? *2020-07-14, version 2.1* I saw the pictures and read the description and so I thought, “Maybe it will be good.” And when I download it it’s just cords and the ukelele. Dude, what are you thinking? You should DEFINITELY have songs there to learn. And it looks like an un updated app. Please, in your next update make the app look newer and add songs to learn. Oh yeah, and don’t make a subscription because we are just try to learn something new and we shouldn’t have to pay to do that. Thank you for your time. ### 1/5 — Good idea, but hurts ears *2018-07-06, version 2.1* This is a really good idea, and I mean really really good idea, but it sounds terrible! I got a little excited and I feel stupid for because I thought it would sound like a ukulele and I could play on the go. But it doesn't sound anything like my ukulele. I'm sorry, this was an awesome idea but needs an extreme amount of work. 😬 ### 1/5 — Good but needs work *2018-04-21, version 2.1* I get very confused with the setup. When you swipe up and down to play, the drop down menu on ur phone comes up and it gets annoying. It also doesn't sound right when you play. It seems out of tune when you play on it, but it sounds in tune when you play each string individually. I didn’t like it but when you get used to it then it sort of gets better ### 1/5 — Don't buy *2017-07-23, version 1.12* It only lets you have 5 chords up there at a time and you don't learn how to play it, you can't even strum it, you have 3 picks to choose from and they all give you an awful strumming patter that is off beat😡😡😡😡 This is awful for anyone no mater what you have in mind, this WONT fit your needs!😡 ### 2/5 — 🥺💔Why I am so upset💔🥺 *2020-06-12, version 2.1* I am at home with a ukulele, a guitar, and a piano. Oh yeah, and a recorder. Now the problem is, is that this app did not help me at ALL. When I got this app, I was so excited to learn the ukulele. But now that I didn’t learn anything. I am very sad and Disappointed. Do you know! I’m at home with nothing to do, I was so excited to learn the ukulele.💔 Please anything kid out there or adult please know that this may happen to you to but if you don’t have a ukulele at home, this app will be good for you. Very good for you. Just so that I’m trying to say is that I hope that people don’t get disappoint like I did. Usually with being a kid❤️ all stay safe. Thanks for reading! ❤️❤️❤️☺️☺️☺️🥺🥺🥺 ### 3/5 — Buggy, but Fun! *2023-05-27* This is a cute and fun app. Three stars because it is buggy to the point where some features are either frustrating to use, or play the wrong notes altogether. If these bugs were fixed it would be a five star app! Even despite this mid rating, I do suggest downloading it for the features that do work, like the main screen. ### 3/5 — My pocket coach *2020-09-28, version 2.1* Everybody in the Hospital thought I had a Uke hidden somewhere, I would take it out in the wee hours when things get dull for the nurses, I sang love song mike Bing Crosby for. mY favorite nurse”Dream A Little Dream Of Me”. She came back and wjtg a loving smile on her face she gave ne a shot that put me to sleep for half a day Thanks.

I e picked up quite a bit in a short time but looking for the day I can play many songs. ### 5/5 — Very fun *2022-02-05, version 2.1* This app is fun but it doesn’t do much all this app has is strings and a few other notes but it is still a great app ### 5/5 — Very helpful! *2021-09-11, version 2.1* This app has been helpful for me to learn the basic chords of the ukulele for my music course 😁 ### 5/5 — Great App *2021-09-07, version 2.1* I got a ukulele the last time we were in Hawai’i, but I haven’t learned to play it. I think I will really enjoy using this app. Gemma Capo ### 5/5 — Helpful app! *2021-05-16, version 2.1* I do not know how to play ukulele but I am positive that this app will help me learn!! 5/5 stars are guaranteed! ### 5/5 — Wow 👉🏼💖👈🏼😆 *2021-04-26, version 2.1* I learn ukelele! I need to practice. So this is good. But they still give a book, but sometimes i loose tbe book! Good app 👉🏼😃👈🏼 ### 5/5 — Great game!! *2021-02-09, version 2.1* This is an amazing game, my grand dad recently gave me a ukulele for Christmas. And I wanted to learn how so I downloaded this game to practice it. If you download this game you are definitely going to love it ### 5/5 — I-It’s OK *2021-01-03, version 2.1* Ummmm I like really well it’s just I can never hear the sound so it’s really hard I have my own ukulele and I kno five songs already but I’m still getting used to playing the app!😊 ### 5/5 — Might change *2020-11-18, version 2.1* 3rd time to open app and haven’t yet arrive at the tuner. Will be back to let y’all know if things don’t improve but I like the idea of a free tuning app. #duh --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
