Apple Music Integration Disappeared

I’ve used Ultimate Guitar for some time and really enjoyed being able to play the original recordings through Apple Music while following the guitar chords.

Unfortunately, this excellent feature has completely disappeared. I’ve updated the app, checked all the settings and contacted customer support several times since August.

Support has acknowledged the problem but cannot confirm whether Apple Music integration has been deliberately removed or whether it’s a technical fault. They also cannot say if or when it will return.

This is extremely disappointing, particularly for those of us who regularly use the app to practise guitar. The ability to play along with the original recordings was one of its most useful features.

Please restore Apple Music integration or at least provide customers with a clear explanation of what’s happened

Great app but a big with latest iPad OS.

I really love the app and use it for gigs all the time, I play a lot of gigs where I take requests so it’s great for just pulling up chords and lyrics and using the auto scroll and transpose. I play in various set ups and have to always learn new songs so I also make playlists for gigs, which are great, and I like to have my set list open in files in split screen view (now like floating windows). Since the latest iPad OS update however the 3 OS buttons, yellow green and red, are in the way of the back button, so I can no longer be in a song and navigate back to choose another and it’s completely killer. I have to maximise the window in order just to navigate back. Please fix this issue, and I can rate 5 stars again.

Did not provide what I paid for

You did not provide what I paid for so then I texted you through the App Store your assistant telling me I have another account but I have only 1 account so you are scammers and liars refund my money or give stuff what I paid for !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Indispensable

Long time subscriber. They are constantly improving this app. I love the multi-instrument official selection with the other instruments written guitar tablature with the ability to change the tempo.

Charged me for something i didn’t buy

I wanted to use the 7 day free trial but as soon as the purchase when through i was charged immediately instead of given the 7 free days
