Yousician: Learn & Play Music Positive Reviews

Great Learning SystemI LOVE this app so far. I have tried learning guitar on my own multiple different times and always ended up giving up on it, mostly because I wasn't seeing the results I wanted and also because I just didn't know what to do. This system makes it fun and easy to learn, no matter what skill level you are. I really like that they make it like a game. I grew up playing guitar hero and the song layouts on here are a lot like it, so that makes it really fun as well as beneficial. I also like the skill progressions, as well as the certificates you can download. I personally like to physically see progress, so being able to see how many stars I have on each song, or if I perfected it and got gold stars really helps me to see just how far my skill level is actually progressing. I am saving every certificate each time I go up a skill level and can't wait to put them all together when I finish the program. I would HIGHLY recommend this program; especially as someone who has tried for years to learn the guitar and got very minimal results on my own. Plus it's cheaper than getting guitar lessons from an actual coach. If you are someone who is a visual learner and can coach/critique yourself as you go, this would be a great program for you. I haven't had this much fun learning something new in a very long time. 10/10.Reagan2448Version: 4.22.0

I absolutely love this app!I have the subscription for the guitar. When I first downloaded the app it had some glitches but since the latest update I don’t have any complaints and even when it glitched (the sound wouldn’t play at times usually if the lesson was stopped due to other activity on my phone) if I exited the app and came back it was fine. I only have praise for Yousician! This app has sooo many different helpful components. From video and lessons to songs and challenges (against other users) to charts and emails that encourage you and track your progress. All the video lessons are extremely easy to comprehend and the layout makes it extremely easy to navigate. It is super addictive!!! There are several times Ive been totally sucked in spending hours glued to the app trying to perfect a lesson to rack up gold stars. I promise you the money is beyond worth it! You cannot beat the convenience of going at your pace practicing at any time for as long as you like! There are 3 sections (knowledge, rhythm, and lead). I have completed knowledge and I’m on the 3rd level of rhythm. I love the progressive levels. Rhythm and lead each have 10 levels and knowledge has 5. The gradual build from one lesson to another is pretty much flawless. I’m definitely going to write a review when I’m finished with all 3 sections. This app is my blessing!.8Pat7Version: 2.44.0

Love it, needs some improvement... 4 1/2 starsThis app is the best ever! I love its learning experience and how they motivate you. Although this is my favorite app, I’m disappointed for a few reasons. First, the “need headphones” issue almost all other reviews are talking about is a big one. Using headphones really isn’t a big deal! However, if you don’t have any, the app just will NOT work. The fact that it picks up the noise that the app is making itself is a bad issue. Next, the new update. This one is partly my fault, but still. I clicked onto the app to take a lesson, and it told me to update the app. I wanted to do it, and so I tried to, only to discover my storage was full. May I note that I still had 4 1/2 empty GB. Anyway, I got back into the app to take a lesson and clear up space later and I clicked on the X in the corner. It was a fake X. Now I have to clear up lots of storage for 20 minutes (my tablet takes forever to clear fpr some reason), and in the meantime I just cannot take a guitar lesson. These are some issues, and please clear them. This is still one of my fav apps! Sorry for the long review... bye! Edit: The update thing is less of an issue now, however the fact that you can’t use until updating us SUUUUPERR frustrating. Like, can I just learn guitar BEFORE updating?.Doggy poo #2Version: 4.17.1

So so enjoyable and helpfulI can’t recommend Yousician enough. I remember when Rock Band came out I kept saying I wish someone would make something like this where you actually learn and...here it is! I’ve been playing about a year and first, it’s SO fun. Secondly, I am learning so quickly. I do ten minutes a day but usually end up puttering another 10. The people who make this app have put so much thought, care and love into the layout and lessons. I really can’t recommend enough. I have premium bc I thought I’d like to play the famous songs but actually I find I enjoy the ones yousician has a lot more - they are usually not more than two minutes or so and are very carefully composed and calibrated to help you work on really specific things and help you progress. Also a lot of them are some of my favorite tunes now - playing in the park! I still pay for premium thought bc this is a service worth paying for. You will find yourself looking forward to having a few empty moments in your day so you can mess around. Looking forward to what they keep coming up with and THANKS for making such a great app. I would like more instructional videos on exact finger placement and strumming - I think I tug a lot of my strings around and don’t know how to stop..WindfieldzVersion: 3.2.0

Beware of TrialI signed up for the free trial over Christmas break for my son who now has a guitar. The app was doing okay at first and he seemed to like it. Then it couldn’t hear him well enough and kept asking for an amp to be plugged in (or not giving him credit for the notes he was playing.) An amp we don’t have...so now it just doesn’t seem to pick up what he’s playing despite lots of attempts to make it work. On the last day of the trial, I canceled because this was frustrating him and he quit playing. I had signed up for the 3 month subscription (with the trial you had to commit to something) because it was a good deal if he was really committed. When I went to cancel, it wouldn’t let me because it wasn’t 24 hours before the end of the trial (so technically 6 days...not 7). I emailed Yousician and they told me it was out of their hands and I needed to contact Apple. Well Apple pretty much told me it was my fault that I didn’t read the initial email (which it is in there and I didn’t see it at the time...it is my fault I suppose) but definitely disappointing that there was no grace and I was just out $60. That’ll teach me not to do trials. They always get you one way or another. And I wouldn’t have minded the $60 if the app worked well enough to pick up the sound without extra equipment. Just an 11 year old kid with a busy schedule wanting to learn how to play the guitar. :(.LandjwilVersion: 4.3.0

I love this app😍OK soi wanted to learn piano 🎹 money. But it’s different you don’t have to pay money I mean if you want to it’s $30 per month but who want to do that. Instead you can play along with any instrument do you have and it will give you free time to play and once the free times over you try tomorrow. This way you can learn so much, they even did you singing there’s one instrument you can’t plan that, drums. It will ask you for money now and then but you can just refuse. That’s why I give it a five star. Currently in this app I am learning singing and piano, it is so very helpful. It’s helpful when you’re just a nine-year-old and it’s vacation and you have nothing to do.(I am a nine year old) back in my home I took piano classes and didn’t exactly work out because I didn’t know what to do, and he tried so hard I mean I tried hard but I couldn’t understand anything to years later here in America I told him many apps piano apps and ask me for money so I had to delete them but Yousician is different I love it. I know it asks for money but you can just refuse. My mom doesn’t have a car so I can’t go to any classes with this app I can learn anything on the piano sitting at home. In Conclusion this is a great app..My dream singing appVersion: 3.24.0

Worth the money pays for itself in 3 lessonsI am a veteran musician (not a guitarist) I am a vocalist but I always had a guitar laying around, picked it up and learned a few chords but that’s it. Now in my 40’s I decided to pick up guitar a get serious. I know it’s late in life but thought it would be a great hobby away from my normal music and singing career. So I am now on week 2 of the premium version and I love it. I’ve had my guitar in my hands more in 2 weeks than the last 30yrs. I started at the very beginning to be sure not to miss a lesson, trick, or nuance, something I might have rushed or overlooked in the past. I am now at my level, comfort, challenges and knowledge where I left off years ago. I definitely have gotten better with all 3 levels “lead, knowledge and rhythm”. This app is fun and addicting. It keeps you motivated and interested in learning. Definitely worth the money it paid for itself 100 times over in the last 2 weeks compared to the cost of what a real teacher would’ve cost including the time, traveling, gas etc. I’ve tried a few guitar apps and this one is by far the most fun and a lot less frustrating than the others. Can’t wait to learn more. I’ll write another review in 3 months. 🤘💀🤘.Metalmadman666Version: 2.40.1

Great program. Ripped me off for a full year subThe app is great. I signed up for a month. Cancelled this am before the end of the month because I didn’t want to forget(was possible gonna renew later but want gonna have much time next month). With more than a week left on my rx- I sign in and the app makes it appear that I can’t utilize the non-free material because I’ve cancelled but gives me the option to “renew”. I thought that this was very annoying but figured I’d renew then use the rest of my paid month and cancel before the end of the week. The renew option gave no hint that it would do anything other than continue what id already purchased and certainly made no suggestion that by hitting this button that I’d be upgrading to a full year subscription... some thing I’d never even considered. Very misleading. I would approach the makers personally if the site didn’t give you the dead end of “you need to approach iTunes” which then gives an immediate “you don’t qualify for a refund”. I’m not a troll.... not a complainer... and I’m not an idiot. I’ll pay and enjoy the program for a year... but this was a trap. Just posting to hopefully prevent someone else from falling into it..PositiverprVersion: 3.20.1

I like it but there’s something you need to fixI really enjoy learning from Yousician. I’m learning to play the piano at the moment. I learned from my friends and I know a lot of notes and a few songs but I want to learn the basics and try and get really good. One thing I don’t really like though is the premium thing. Like I get that people have to make a profit so you do this premium program but not everyone has the time and money to learn this. I feel like Yousician got more attention if you’d let aspiring piano players (or any instrument) learn faster and for free. Shouldn’t everyone has access to the beauty of music? I have a friend who’s been learning piano for 7 years from her teacher but she has to pay about 100 or something per lesson. So i’d much rather learn from Yousician but I can’t learn as fast and as efficiently as I’d like to because of this silly program. Maybe if you made people pay money for something else in the app like idk maybe to unlock a song you need a certain amount of points and if you don’t have enough you can pay to unlock it. Something like that. I just think that if you made it free that you’d get a lot more attention :) but that’s my opinion. I just hope you agree with me, and thanks if you read this whole thing by the way.LuxsGalaxyVersion: 2.35.1

Great...butYousician has been really helpful in my guitar journey. I have learned a lot about the different ways to play and how to play most effectively, and sometimes it will give you a song to play as part of your lesson. Now I’m not a master guitar player, but sometimes it will tell me that I played the wrong note, when I clearly played the right one. My microphone is clearly exposed to the sound of my guitar and my guitar is fully in tune. I will pluck a string, and it will say that I got it wrong, even though I plucked the right string in the right fret. Worst of all, some lessons require you to get 100% completion on a song in order to move on and complete a skill, so sometimes I will find myself playing a song over and over and over for more time than I would like to spend perfecting every note of the song. Also, things like this can be really frustrating, I would know, and if you play a song without wearing headphones, the microphone will pick up what your speakers are spitting out and tell you that you’re wrong for every note until you wear headphones. It tells you before hand to “wear headphones for best experience” you basically have to wear headphones in order to use the app. And if you don’t have headphones with you, then you’re in quite a pickle. The app is great, but can get very frustrating..Taegan MaeVersion: 2.62.1

Good just a few problemsThis app in general is so good. There’s only a few little problems. When I play piano on this app, it tests me on notes and sometimes the microphone doesn’t work and I get really annoyed. And the other problem is the premium. I really want to get the premium but it’s 160 dollars per year (around there) and some people just can’t afford that. I know you’re trying to get money and all but I think for some people it’s too much and you should lower the price or have another choice for each week or month. If you don’t have premium, you can only practice 10 minutes each day (at least for piano).Other than those problems, it’s a really fun app. Update: okay it’s been a while and the microphone works better now but there’s one major MAJOR problem. It deleted all my progress! I’m restarting everything and I’m really annoyed. I didn’t sign out of my account or anything and it deleted my progress. I might be generous or not for giving you 3 stars. Update again: okay thank you so much for replying back to me it means a lot. I knew about the subscriptions monthly and yearly which I didn’t know you could cancel the monthly so thank you. And thank you for the new content. I will definitely change my rating..CamilerzVersion: 3.12.1

Great for beginnersThis app is teaching me how to play the bass guitar and if I do say so myself, I’m coming along great! It definitely does what it advertises. The fact that Yousician not only teaches me how to play, but I’m gaining physical knowledge on the actual guitar. It’s almost as if I were getting real life guitar lessons!! It is user friendly, efficient, prompt, and accurate. Couldn’t be more pleased with an app that does all that Yousician does, that’s FOR SURE! It makes it to where I enjoy the lessons. The free trial is great too because it allows the students to check out the app and see if it suits them or not. Everyone is different so, the fact that you can try Yousician absolutely free is super neat! One last thing that I have to mention; whoever thought of the “daily goal” idea when producing this app was absolutely marvelous! I think that was so cool and inspiring! I go over the daily goal of course, 😉 but when I first saw that, I thought it was awesome! So kudos on that detail. So all in all, this app is simply and purely genius. Thank you very much! After my free trial is up, I will be purchasing whatever needs purchasing. In a few weeks I’ll be able to rock out with my boyfriend and his band mates!.PLG0624Version: 2.62.1

Makes learning fun!I got my first ukulele while on a cruise to Hawaii. They had fun classes onboard taught by a Hawaiian ambassador. He was such a neat fun guy and had me loving the ukulele. When I got home I wanted to learn more and found this app. This app is fun, easy to understand and has kept me loving my uke. I play daily at least 30 mins using this app. My dad uses it as well with his uke. It’s fun to see how we are progressing on our playing skills. I like how you can practice a song and slow down the tempo. I tend to start at 75% speed to kinda learn the song, cords or fretting. Then I move up in increments of 10% until I feel ready to preform the song in the actual lesson. One thing I’d suggest when using the app. Use earbuds. Sometimes if you have the app too loud it has issues hearing your instrument, if you are a soft player. Earbuds or the like, are perfect as you can clearly hear the lesson and your instrument. As for the price for premium... I think it’s very reasonable. Lessons taught in person would cost much more. Plus this app offers lessons for guitar, bass, ukulele and piano! A great bang for your buck, I’d say. Long story short, if you want to learn to play... I highly recommend this fun app..TARDISKATEVersion: 2.37.2

So good it’s upsettingAlright. This app is very good. It really does help you learn and become a better musician. So why did I rate this app 4 stars? I rated it a four because it’s only good for awhile. The first couple lessons are amazing bc you learn quickly and you through them quickly letting you get more lessons in your ten minute lesson times. (If you don’t have premium.) They kinda scam you a little bit. •They make the lessons easier at first •then they make them harder •then you can’t get through as many in the ten minute period •then you feel like you have to get sucked into the premium plan. But you don’t want too bc it costs a lot. It’s a really frustrating endless cycle. Regular guitar lessons can be stressful and cost more than what the premium plan would cost you. But the premium plan still adds up. But then you do another lesson and it seems like they’re just trying to challenge you because then you take a “skill test”. So what I’m saying is after awhile when the lessons get hard enough, they might not give you enough time to get through one lesson, and it makes you want to get premium. Which I understand it’s a marketing thing thats obviously working. So give your marketing person a raise, and lower your premium costs. Because this app is really good..F̤̮o̤̮n̤̮t̤̮ɩơ۷ɛཞVersion: 4.3.0

Blessed With This AppWe all know lessons can be expensive in reality. Ranging from as little as $20 to $60 PER lesson, and that’s just for beginners. So how does a blossoming musician learn without being robbed of their money and having to GO TO the lesson, and only able to practice what the trainers assign or what you can find online. To me, that doesn’t sound very convenient. The answer is simple- YOUSICIAN! They walk you through everything, giving you personalized lessons and feedback. There’s such a wide variety of songs, you can almost always find what you’re looking for! I play the guitar, and for as little as $9.99 a month, I’m able to work around my own schedule, not someone else’s to be able to learn the guitar more effectively. I can even tell the app how much time I have for the lesson, and they work with that. Again, this is an inexpensive, convenient, efficient, and effective way to learn your dream instrument. This app works for the busiest people to the people who want to spend all their time learning, and 1 lesson per week isnt cutting it. Don’t spend over a hundred dollars a month on lessons, when you have Yousician right in front of you! 👌🏻Yousician is a blessing!!!.LalaallalyVersion: 2.39.1

Pretty Great! 4.5 for meGuitar has proved to be a lot harder than any instrument I’ve tried so far, so it was really neccessary for me to have a game plan and track to follow. I love the certificates that you can opt to email to yourself, its super cute and makes you feel real proud. I also love how it has lessons on understanding the music and notes itself. I think tgats often overlooked but very important. I would 100% reccomend the pro version if you can, it makes learning a lot more enjoyable without annoying ads and playing original songs ratger than yousician ones. The only complaints i have is that I think that we should be able to skip certain certain lessons or songs. Some are just too hard :/ and I’d rather be able to keep practicing other skills then come back to this. Another complaint I have, I think that it’d make the app even better if you had the chords and notes to more popular songs that we could choose to play similar to the challenges or guitar tabs. Also it would be amazing if we had song library where we can practice our favorite songs we’ve played throughout the lessons. But overall its a pretty great app..6453936299:76737:$Version: 4.11.3

Life changer.... ❤️ ✨I got this app yesterday and it’s already changing my life. I’m starting to understand singing a lot better. This also gives lessons for other instruments, too, so i’m assuming that the lessons for learning the instruments are just as amazing as the singing lessons. Why do people spend all this money for other singing lessons when they can just get Yousician for free? I have a dream of becoming a singer when I grow up (I’m 10 years old so), and this is really helping me get on track. I was very lost at singing and after a few lessons in this app I feel more secure with singing. They include songs, workouts, and missions & lessons in this app and it’s amazing! They also included plenty of details for singing. I only have like 2 or 3 lessons done, I know, I’ve done barely any but I feel like this app is super good. There’s only one thing about this app that I kind of don’t like but I do understand why they did it. My complaint is how most of the songs they have to offer are for Premium+. I understand that they need money but still. 🤗 Anyway I love this app PLEASE DOWNLOAD!! 😌.RainbowKitty1000000Version: 4.18.0

Great app but...Yousician has been an awesome app. Ive been using the app to learn both guitar and ukulele the past few weeks and have progressed fairly quickly, but not without some frustrations. Frequently the app has trouble distinguishing me from its own background track, and will fail me on a song that I am playing correctly. This forces me to go back and play the song again, usually an extra 3 or 4 times, before it will pick up enough of my playing to allow me to move on with the lesson. I also wish it would teach you a few more songs that I could play outside of the app. I have gotten through several levels on both instruments and have not really learned any songs on either. Playing along with the music during the lesson works well enough, but when you’re done with your lesson the app pretty much locks down everything, including the songs you’ve already unlocked, unless you have premium. This is new since the update, and I wish it would go back! I understand not being able to access new content outside your allotted 10/15 minutes without paying, but without being able to practice what you’ve already started working on, it really slows down progress..GodsGirl618Version: 2.48.1

This is the best!OMG I have wanted to play guitar for 2 years now and now I can actually play it! I have had this app for 3 days and it has literally changed my life in so many ways and all of them are good ways! It can teach you in a short amount of time I have already done 6 exercises and I think I’m ready to join a competition please get this app it is amazing and I give it 5 stars no duh! I love this app and feel like it’s perfect for anyone who needs to either let the music hold your sad and depressing feelings (me) and also people who want to start a hobbie or career I feel like the people who made this picked the right one to make, they could have chose a lot of other things but they chose music the thing that lifts people up and gives them hope when they are down music is apart of us and we wouldn’t be able to be kind and amazing people we are today without it so get Yousician the best music teacher you’ll ever have! And remember music will guid you through your way to happiness so the shorter you download it the better you will feel. Music is love..HealthFreakJuVersion: 3.13.0

New does not equal improvedThe new lessons are from Metallica. I am not a fan. If they had continued the 10, 20, 30 minute guided lesson - still available on the piano app. There is still a lot of material for me to work from on the "learn" tab - in "missions" and "workouts." I liked the guided lesson because it helped me to keep up practice on things I already learned and it fit the time I had to give it. I am an adult re-learner of guitar and I started using Yousician about three years ago with the free version and signed up for the full version a year and a half ago. I created an Excel chart to keep track of "workouts: skill builders." This is helpful because Yousician has introduced me to chords and skills I didn't know existed. My goal is to be able to join my church worship band so I wish you had some contemporary Christian music for me to work on. I have used the singing app and would give it three stars because there are very few pieces for the first soprano range AND, especially AND, there is no option for standard notation!!!! I like to sing old Broadway music - My Fair Lady; Carousel; The King and I, Phantom of the Opera (Christine's and Carlotta's parts}, etc..HiglandiaVersion: 4.64.0

Good tool for practiceI’m already a working musician (rhythm guitar and bass in a couple of bands), so I came to Yousician to work specifically on lead guitar skills it’s been easy to neglect. On that, it has delivered; I’m a more confident soloist than I was a year ago, with more techniques in my repertoire. This wasn’t a goal, but I’m also more comfortable playing against a click track. Bonus! A few quibbles: The app doesn’t seem to judge the quality of notes—I’ve gotten a “Perfect” for clams that I would never accept in a recording session. Some of the fingerings seem a little off, more commonly in the assigned finger than in the fret/string. I’ve occasionally gotten stuck in what feels like an endless practice loop of the same song: I think I’m done with it, and then it’s there the next time I open the app, and it must be passed before I can move on to anything else. And the synthy-ness of the arrangements can be a little annoying (though it’s probably a necessary evil to accommodate the tempo shifts). Still, this does what it says it does, and the structure really does make you practice more. I’m not sure I would make this (or any app) my only approach to learning an instrument, but it’s a great supplement..Bags4028Version: 2.62.1

Premium is a bit shadyI purchased the premium for ukulele version of this app for about $120 for the year. It’s by far the most money I’ve ever spent on an app, but it’s cheaper and more convenient than scheduled lessons so I thought why not. I feel like I’ve learned a lot from the app but recently felt cheated when in my lesson popped up a song, Brown Eyed Girl, which I was excited about because many of the songs are a bit obscure they give you to play and I knew this song. But it was just an ad for their Super Duper Premium, or whatever they call it. I don’t believe this was offered when I originally subscribed and I was under the impression I had unlimited access; it’s definitely a bit shady to change terms after a purchase has been made; it boils down to they want another $60. This begging for more money leaves me feeling cheated. I thought I was paying for ad free and yet... That said, my kids each have free accounts and get the same songs I do, but can only do a ten minute lesson instead of the unlimited time I get. That time is perfect for them. It’s a very fun app and I do feel like I’ve learned a lot, but unfortunately I still do feel a bit cheated by Yousician and probably won’t renew their premium service..Nate 4321Version: 2.54.1

DisappointingI thought this app would be great help to me as a beginner, but it was an overall let down. Something I liked was how the app personalized everything according to your music taste and learning speed. It definitely makes a learning experience more fun that way. However, not being able to do anything without payment was frustrating. Trying to self-teach and needing to pay for monthly memberships just isn’t ideal. If someone would like any recommendations to apps similar to this: Ultimateguitar. Seriously. I’m not advertising for them, but rather speaking from personal experience. Ultimateguitar does great at customizing based on music taste and learning pace as well. There are so many more songs on that platform, and although some features can be unlocked with a pro membership, it’s practically free access to songs you love! Don’t get me wrong, if you’re super into your instrument, and are willing to pay the price, Yousician is a great place! Many different song options, as well as the many online lessons they provide for you. This app is certainly unique, and if maybe I had the money, I would love it as much as some other people do. Kind regards..Lokoops13Version: 4.92.0

Almost good.What the app does well, it does well. Teaching the basics to beginners, proper technique and the like. However at the door of all of that, when you’re getting into playing the songs that are available, it really loses its shine. The song list is extremely basic, I constantly find myself listening and filling in tons of blank spaces. Single note trains isn’t fun or challenging for a bass player and leads me outright frustration. Some of the best known bassists aren’t even on the playlists, aside from rhcp, and some classic players from the ages. The problem with this is while it structures the fundamentals for bass, it doesn’t teach or challenge a player into becoming an outstanding bassist that really stands out on stage. Seeing as I paid the full 180 dollars for the year subscription, I feel I have grounds to complain about this. I also recommend, if the developers even read this, to include an option to disable vocals. The singers are very jarring to listen to. A playlist of songs that are incrementally more challenging and use unorthodox Basslines is something I hope to see in the future; as it stands for bass the song choices are incredibly monotonous. I can only speak for the bass side of things..Rbally10Version: 2.61.0

Hate the NEW interface! Please change back!!I tried the new version for several months now and I just hate it so much. In the old version you could clearly see your progress, different paths, what was coming up, scrolling vertically. Super easy and visual. Now it’s horizontal and you can only look a section of the paths with all these frickin numbers (your levels, how many lessons within each section), etc. It’s horrible. So frustrating. Actual lessons are the same and still effective, but choosing paths, seeing where you are, and feeling any kind of accomplishment is Gone. You could study their paragraphs and paragraphs of instruction in their FAQ section to figure out how to use this new version but before it was so intuitive! Please bring back the old or give us a choice! I am sure you are going to give me your bot response of how change can be hard and that I will grow to love it. I am giving honest feedback- I tried it and hate it and so do many other paying customers. Listen to your users!.ZukeyBeanVersion: 4.27.1

Breach in account by software with no accountabilityI have for the past several days tried to figure out how my account had a strange email associated with it. After back and forth with the company and my inability to access or fix this error due to a blocked account, this company has the guts to tell me they had no breach in security? That maybe it was me. As a physician I find this irresponsible and inappropriate. I don’t even have children in my house and the account had a strange unrecognizable email and user name. They have offered no explanation as to the event. Another breach in security with this software was several months back when my account was stopped after I had payed for the membership fee of 179 dollars for the year. They admitted it was a system error then but this time they admit to no wrong doing? Be watchful with this app and make sure you monitor changes in your account. Never offer them a direct credit card. Who knows what they will do with it. Good app but HORRIBLE security Be safe out there.DisappointedDRVersion: 4.20.1

The reason I cancelledI believe this app has good intention for beginners. I will tell you that videos and tutorials have good structure and take you through the right path of consistency to learn to play an instrument accurately. To learn to play an instrument is key to express yourself day in and day out through music. So, about structure, and since this a good tool to practice, I give you, guys, a thumbs-up. However... the reason I have rated this app 4-star is because it truly doesn’t make me feel like I progress. The difficulty level is questionable. There are times the app doesn’t recognize the notes I’m playing, and some songs seem to get a bit difficult to play for mere beginners, which makes me feel frustrated and stuck on the same songs for days of practice (even if you were to play that song for an intensive 30 min lesson). So no, I don’t think this app is wack, or a waste of money, don’t get me wrong. No hard feelings. But I don’t think it’s intended for beginners. I look forward to solidify my knowledge and some basics first before coming back. Later on, I would definitely give you guys a second try..UnaZarzaEnLlamasVersion: 4.14.0

Total GarbageThis app is ABSOLUTELY NOT FOR BEGINNERS. It’s a 110% waste of you money. It a great concept but, it doesn’t work. When your playing it doesn’t pick up the notes consistently or evenly enough. Sometimes it will register a note in a song and other times it will not. Sometimes it will tell you, you are early or late playing a note. Sometimes you play the same note right on Time an it will register it as being wrong. So if your a beginner on an intermediate player it hard to get good feedback on what’s really going on in terms of if you doing things right or wrong. Instead of adding more songs what they need to do fix the basics. Creating software that is dead on accurate in terms of registering every note correctly. I paid for the basic subscription and I totally regret it. I will definitely cancel it before it renews again. If they ever bother to fix this issue, then it will be just what they claim it to be the “the best way to learn guitar”. As it stands no this app is TOTAL GARBAGE. If you are a beginner it will only hold you back long term..WorkBoat7Version: 3.13.0

Singing great, guitar tuning terribleI’ve been using this app for a while now for my singing, and it’s been great, but a bit ago I tried to guitar lessons on it, and the part that helped you tune the guitar was absolute trash. It either said I was to high or too low, never in the middle. It also would say that I needed to make it lower, so I would try, and I would barely tune, because at this point it was so tight it was almost impossible to make tighter, and then it said I was way to low and needed to make it higher, once again, I just barely turned the thing to tune it, and it was saying it need to be lower. It also, would stay in the middle between perfect and way to high, and would never move, except for when that one part I just mentioned would happen. I bet even if I went to a professional tuner it would say it’s to high or to low. Please, please fix this. If it wasn’t for that, then this would probably be 5 star review. Well, 5 star if that wouldn’t happen, and you didn’t have to install an entirely different app for piano. Also, please make the daily lesson time longer, it is WAY too short. Make the limit 30 minutes to 1 hour..Charger_LawVersion: 4.12.2

Lifesaver!!Im on my free trial right now, ive started playing bass guitar in jazz band three months back, i KNOW NOTHING about the instrument because i have to self teach and i didnt know where to start so i gave up, well that changed. I downloaded yousician out of desperation and fell in love. it has this rhythm game mechanic to some lessons which i love because making fun games out of practicing helps motivate a lot of people including myself. today i spent over an hour practicing without even realizing and made great progress! You no only get to learn neat riffs or songs but also get good beginner friendly pointers and ways to get better. Every now and then it changes up and gives you a mini game for things like tone which i did know before but even then it was fun and i can see how for a new person it would really help out. They have some jingles to help remember your notes and pitch which is really nice. I wish their was a clarinet version so i could do this with my other instrument!!! still a really good app..Foxtale ytVersion: 4.95.0

I love this appI’ve tried teaching myself and I’ve tried taking lessons in person but I always found that I would get burned out on the material I had to practice or the instructor would be moving too fast. I’ve had the app for 3 days and I’ve already played for 12hrs lol (I have a broken foot and don’t have anything else to do). I can honestly say I’ve never enjoyed learning this much. There is plenty of songs to practice and you’re moving at your own pace with instant feedback, which is unparalleled. I will say the chords feedback is pretty forgiving, I will muck it up pretty bad and still pull off a “perfect”. I’ve been wanting to learn how to play the guitar for years but have given up many times, with this app I have no doubt that I can become at competent at least. The price is steep but if you look around at private lessons and compare, it’s a steal (shhh don’t tell the developers). If the developers are reading, thanks for giving me the opportunity to finally learn how to play an instrument..DillybuttchuggVersion: 4.54.0

The best way to learn at your paceI’ve wanted to learn the guitar for pretty much all of my adult life. I’ve tried multiple methods with no success. Yousician starts from the very beginning where I needed to, and does not assume anything. I’m not good. I have to run through the practices multiple times and slow it way down, and set it to automatically speed up as I improve. I’ve committed to practicing every day - a time I call ‘my daily frustration’. Which is what this is made for! People who can’t just pick up an instrument and suddenly know how to play it. People who maybe don’t have that ‘artistic’ brain and need things broken down, and what to practice, step-by-step to build upon. Just follow the bouncing ball. Did this app suddenly endow me with amazing talent? No. Is it helping me to work through my frustration and learn something that is difficult for me? Heck yes. Highly recommend for anyone who has almost given up because it’s not as easy for you as it seems to be for everyone else..Onyx LotusVersion: 4.21.1

It’s okay.I got this app because my father got me a guitar about 4 years ago and for some odd reason I didn’t play it. My father passed away in 2020 due to multiple reasons and I told myself that I was going to learn guitar no matter what. I started playing with this app and overall it was really nice! Though I was a bit sad because of the free trial, you see I don’t have a lot of money and to be completely honest my mother wouldn’t want to spend money on a guitar app. So sadly I can’t play anymore? I’m confused. Do you have to pay money to get more lessons? There’s many questions I have. Of course I don’t dislike the app and I find it great for learning, but it’s a bit difficult when the app asks for a free trial to continue. Don’t get me wrong this is a great learning app but also a little tip is maybe to make it so it hears the guitar more :). Though I love the app it’s personally a bit difficult. Maybe add ads Instead of a free trial but then again I know you have to make money. That makes sense. I just wish that you can continue without the free trial. Feel free to respond to me, I would love to learn guitar :), Thanks!.AllthenicknamesaretakenghgjVersion: 4.50.0

Great app! Few minor tweaksThere seems to be some issue with logging in when starting up. I kept getting logged out and a couple times had to restart all progress from scratch because it didn’t save onto my account for some reason. Also, when learning the guitar, the “chord checker” trainings are WAY too strict in my opinion. One string will be only slightly not ringing out, but otherwise the chord sounds good and it won’t let me move on. That level of strictness is good for if I’m supposed to play x number of chords exactly right to move on. But when it requires a lot of chords to be played in a short amount of time and it will only accept them if each one is absolutely entirely technically perfect it’s way too difficult for a beginner. I keep getting stuck on those lessons for hours and not able to get past which is super frustrating. I know for an advanced player changing chords quickly and accurately is crucial. But as a beginner I just want confirmation that I’m doing it at lost almost totally right so I can keep learning, then I can go back and fine tune and perfect..GogatonVersion: 2.60.0

Cool concept, execution a bit lacking.First off, if you’re like me and you want to perfect each exercise (get 3 stars) before moving on to the next, be prepared for endless hours of frustration. The app doesn’t do a very good job of picking up notes that are very clearly being played (like, you can clearly hear the full chord and see that every string is ringing), especially if you’re playing through an amp. They either need to fix the note recognition problem, or relax the standards a bit. It’s more a matter of luck than skill whether or not you manage to make it through a whole song without at least one note in a chord not registering, and it kind of takes the joy out of using the app. It’s much less of a problem on the “knowledge” and “lead” path where you’re mostly playing individual notes than it is with the “rhythm” path. Besides that, the original songs are pretty cheesy. Would be cool to learn more blues licks and picking patterns, but maybe I just haven’t gotten far enough into the exercises for all that because I’m stuck trying to get 3 stars on some dumbed down version of Brown Eyed Girl or whatever..TheHolyFoolVersion: 4.24.0

Kind of annoyingI got this app a few days ago, which probably isn’t enough time to have an opinion on this app, but I’m impatient so... yeah the subscription annoys me a lot because I just want to play the guitar since my family doesn’t really think I can do it. They obviously wouldn’t pay for a subscription for me either. So I only would get one lesson a day. Which really frustrates me because sometimes I get super bored and playing the guitar is really the only thing to do. It also reads my notes and chords wrong. I play on the first fret, (like I’m supposed to) and it marks it red. It also frustrates me that they don’t give you that much motivation to play if you don’t have the subscription. It’s like “if you don’t hand over your wallet then you don’t get to play the guitar.” And it’s very annoying. Also, the Yousician “classic” songs aren’t very like able and they don’t have much variety. There’s country and that’s about it, because you have to pay money to listen and play actual good songs of course (I know it’s kind of petty of me lol) ok well that is my honest review of the free version of this app, thanks for your time!.ITunes essaryVersion: 4.22.0

GREAT APP FOR LEARNING BASS, but…This is a GREAT app for learning bass guitar. I absolutely love it. The instructors are great (I also took some guitar and piano in the app; a true plus is you can learn other instruments for the same price), and the opportunity to play with music tracks of various styles is awesome. With the bass, it’s particularly important to hear music behind you and to play along. I’ve literally had hours of enjoyment. For sheer joy of playing, I can’t recommend this app more. However, I did struggle to play outside the app. There’s no information about how bass players play along with or adapt chord charts; no info about scales or improvising with them (which is what bass players commonly do); no info or training at all on reading standard tab and applying it to a song. So while I LOVE playing with the app and the way it teaches instruments, I wish it would cover this other important info. I’d also love way more jazz tracks and less metal, in a perfect world. But you won’t regret the money you spend. I’ve never learned an instrument so fast in my life..LauraJ5Version: 4.44.0

Amazing app! Just a small suggestion...This app is truly amazing! There is I think five different instruments you can choose from, and you can do all at once if you’d like. There is singing, guitar, piano, bass, and ukulele. I use singing and guitar and piano. They all work extremely well, and after a couple days of practice I am already getting better! And I did not get the premium. My cousin did though and she is WAY better at the guitar now! One thing I do suggest for the guitar is you use headphones because it picks up other sounds easily sometimes. There is something that is kinda annoying. I was going to do the monthly premium thing, but it every month. It’d be great if there was something I could do to buy it for only one month. I just want to pay for a single month because I do t have enough money for every month all the time. But it isn’t a big deal because I still am learning at a very fast rate! Highly recommend!!!.TheVoodooloverVersion: 4.3.0

Acoustic guitar is kind of wonkyGreat app, having a great time with it and learning a lot. My only real negative feedback is that the note detection with an acoustic guitar can be a little off sometimes. It sometimes registers notes that you didn’t play, but even worse is when it doesn’t hear notes that you _did_ play. It does this seemingly at random, and it makes it really obnoxious when you’re trying to perfect a song. It also frequently tells me to “plug in if you’re using an electric guitar”. I’m playing in a quiet room directly next to my iPad’s microphone so it’s not like I’m far away or playing quietly. The way it senses chords can be obnoxious also. I sometimes screw up a C and get some sour or dead notes in there, but it will register them as perfectly played. However, it _loves_ to tell me I have dead notes on Am even if I don’t. Again, when you’re playing the same some for the 4th or 5th time, trying to perfect it, and you _do_ play it perfectly and it _still_ says you missed, it’s enough to make you want to smash your guitar sometimes..Hater hater hater 71626272Version: 4.16.0

BE YOUR OWN MUSIC TEACHER. ITS WORTH ITIf you are a beginner this is the way to go. Take your time with it. I think the best thing for me was admitting I didn’t know anything about what I thought I knew about piano and just jumped right into it. Self-discipline is key. Some of the work outs are challenging and you will get frustrated but that’s okay, they’re growing pains and the fact that you did yourself is dope. A teacher would probably be worse plus it’s a only $20 a month compared to $25-75 an hour and you can learn at your own pace or choose which work out or song you want to do based on your experience. In 2 months I learned how to read music and play piano and the same time. I’m no master pianist but I no longer feel intimidated when I sit down at a piano. I plan on using this piano even after I get it down packed. I may wanna learn guitar, bass, or tighten up my vocals at some point and that’s all included when you subscribe. It’s really the best app for practicing musicians.Dahn.teVersion: 4.25.0

Awesome.. until you get to level 4It love the app, both lectures and practice sessions. After 1-2 days of rehearsing any song I could get at least 3 silver stars, often - 3 golden stars.. until I got to level 4. There a teacher tells you that you can “double your picking speed by picking up and down”… and then they literally throw you under the bus, all the practice sessions on level 4 expect you to start playing twice faster just after watching a 3-minute lesson! And I miserably failed to get even a single star in ANY of the songs they offer at level 4 after few days of trying. Extremely frustrating, I regret paying for 1 year subscription as I this app is pretty useless once you get to level 4 UPDATE: after two weeks of practicing, I finally earned 3 silver stars and learning further songs is not that frustrating. Please fix the start of level 4 by adding 2-3 songs with gradually increasing complexity.Ilya_tVersion: 4.43.1

Disappointed in DirectionI downloaded this app a few years back to learn ukulele and I loved it! There were all sorts of songs available to learn, and although lesson times were limited with the free version, it wasn’t too bad. They eventually made popular songs part of the paid version, which I didn’t mind too much because I could still learn the basics. I recently redownloaded the app to get back into the swing of playing, but I don’t think I had an account before, so I made a new one and I’m incredibly disappointed to see that now anything beyond level 1 appears to be locked. I understand this is a buissness decision but it’s incredibly frustrating to know an app I loved and was able to use for free with only certain aspects locked has decided to make the whole app basically unusable without paying. I can’t even do challenges anymore! I’m still rating three stars because from what I remember the app is a great learning tool, but I can’t help but be dissapointed in the direction the creators have chosen to take this app in..ForestcrowVersion: 4.43.1

TabSo I downloaded this because I'm new to the ukulele (like 5 days new). I'd had pretty good practice before downloading this (I knew how to read tab and was pretty good at quickly moving between chords) the only thing that bothers me about this is when I have to play. While the bouncy ball/track aesthetic seems like a fun way to learn, to me it's just confusing and causes me to lose track of what string the ball is going to bounce on vs. where my finger is. Is there a way to convert tests/practices to regular tab rather than a track? If not please add that in. Other than that, this has been extensively helpful. *Update* I played around with it and found something similar to what's mentioned above. But not enough. It would be much more helpful if the track at least ran vertically instead of horizontally. What would be most helpful is a page showing the individual tabs with a mini track going through the them rather than laying them on a track. I imagine that'd be a hell of a lot cheaper to animate than what you guys got now..Dan50243Version: 2.34.2

Yes, it costs money. Yes, it’s worth it. If you go the lead guitar pathEdit: Had to take a star off of this. If you’re doing the lead guitar path it’s great. Lots of fun and you feel like you’re making good progress. Not the case for rhythm guitar. Trying to nail gold stars with the crappy chord-detection is infuriating. When you nail a chord and it says you missed it, you’ll eventually want to chuck your iPad across the room. Old review: I don’t get people rating this app one star because of the subscription fee. Yes, you have to pay for it. But holy cow, the amount of content is actually a steal. Annual sub gives you access to guitar, bass, piano, vocals and even freaking ukulele! I’ve been messing around with guitar since 1989 but thanks to Yousician I’m actually practicing daily and my picking speed and accuracy is finally getting to where I always wanted it to be. I highly recommend it. And it is WAY cheaper than paying for weekly lessons. As good? Debatable. But if you’re on a budget this is a great way to have fun while practicing and to get into a regular cadence of playing..Strangeway_Version: 4.14.0

Super fair price imoThe app is great! Looks good, easy to follow, great instruction, really great follow up support, it does seem like a big price to pay at first until you factor in that lessons are $32/ week cad for 30 min sessions ( where I am) so the $16/ month or so seems like a drop in the bucket! I like that is sends me weekly progress reports and daily congratulations when I hit my goal! I’m still brand new at guitar but I’m seeing progress and can see the Value in this app! 10/10 would recommend if you were thinking about learning how to play :).THEBADNESSVersion: 4.20.1

Yousician: Learn & Play Music Negative Reviews

Definitely Needs UpdatesFairly occasionally the app won’t recognize that the correct note was played, and might even say that you hit a string you didn’t touch. That was really rough when I didn’t know how any of it was supposed to sound, but could see that I was on the right string, with my finger on the right fret. It’s really discouraging when it happens in the beginning, and gets very frustrating once you’ve gotten better at playing the guitar, and know you did it right. A feature that feels necessary after a year of using the app is the option to either turn off the color coding for what fingers goes where, or have the option to change the finger positioning on the tabs. Most of the time the color coding is pretty useful, but every once in a while it makes the song a lot harder to play than it really has to be. Typically I can ignore the color coding when I don’t agree with it, but it gets more difficult when the tempo for the song gets quicker, and I’m noticing the colors fly by that’s telling me that my pointer finger should be where my middle finger already is, even though doing so is more disorienting than helpful. I’ve heard that there’s some place to request for Yousician to try to add certain songs, but it would be a lot better if there was a tab for suggestions on the actual app..DynomitepiVersion: 4.72.0

Free version is a good learning toolThe free version is a good learning tool with plenty of versatility to try different instruments or styles. You do have to put up with an ad every few minutes and there’s a limit to the amount of time you can use in one day, but for beginning or casual players it’s sufficient. The paid version, however, feels like a scam. The monthly version for $20 limits you to one instrument for ad free, unlimited playing. I paid for piano for my daughter and then she got interested in the ukulele =money wasted. The annual version allows you to switch between instruments theoretically, but only if you are willing to cough up $120 up front. Worse: it’s super easy to sign up for a subscription and impossible to cancel. Signing up happens with a click of a button on the app. However, to cancel one has to sign in to iTunes and cancel the subscription. However, after attempting to do this multiple times, Yousician is still trying to charge my debit card every day. The only reason for the 3 stars is the free version. The paid version gets 1 or less! Update: customer service assured me that account had been cancelled; however, a new gift card entered in iTunes was immediately charged. It appears that we paid $20 for the ‘privilege’ of canceling the service. Funds are not refunded when you cancel. This is completely unethical business practice. Too bad because the app concept is good..CamdellVersion: 2.49.1

Good intentions but bad app!I know the guitar basics like frets picks how to hold it and that. Well the app assumes the basics include all the chords! Ok so I deleted it and chose that I knew nothing. While I was learning the basics this seemed like a very good app. I was about to write a great review about it. Around the first song I realized I was playing the write note but it said I was wrong. Sometimes I was but rarely. The times I was wrong I was around a fret off. Well according to the app I was four strings off. If you play guitar you know how diffract Hi E and low E sound so I don’t know how the app mixed those two up. So every time you finish a song it gives you a ad for the premium version of this game. It’s fine to advertise on your app but after every single thing you do is far past the breaking point! You also get only 10 minutes without premium! Imagine a guitar instructor comes to your house only for ten minutes a day. And like 24 hour day not just comes at 8 on day and 5 on the other. No it’s either 24 hours or more! Remember this is just constructive criticism. Please don’t get offended by this. Here is some advice to make the app better. First only focus on one instrument. You do a mediocre job on around 6 instruments. If you just teach one instrument then it’s mediocre X 6 which would make an amazing emphasis on amazing app so please follow my advice and again this is just constructive criticism so please don’t get offended😊.VlogbusterVersion: 3.9.0

It’s easy but...It easy but I think it gets to hard after like two lessons and I think that its kinda annoying on the first lesson where it doesn’t care to you when your wrong and and with the singing one, forget it it listens to whatever I say and it’s so hard on the first lesson and with the ukulele & piano are so hard, the piano, the first lesson it was simple, second, simple, but the third sheesh it was so hard and it doesn’t correct you at all and it makes you feel bad when you mess up ONE TIME it like fails you half the thing which is annoying and it’s kinda un fair for the people who don’t wanna play because you don’t complete all the lessons because the last one is premium and it’s a song so you have to skip it and then when you do pay you have to pay a lot because you can just pay for one this and with the ukulele I think that it’s hard on the first and second song, yes the song, so I feel like it’s a little to hard because like, it’s a song are you barely know and even worse when you mess up it doesn’t correct you it just takes away a star with is really frustrating and I’m not trying to be a Karen over here I’m just saying my opinion *reads* ok I sound like a Karen but still... I just think it’s just hard to fast. And that’s my review... (but I still use the app:).AzzywandVersion: 4.35.0

Great Idea, Terrible PlatformI’m so frustrated with this program right now. I bought it because I like it but it’s extremely difficult to get the program to read all of your notes. I’m a 20 year guitar veteran who is going through everything to try and get all the gold stars before I advanced to the higher stuff. I first started out using my phone but the sound coming out of the phone conflicted with the sound going in the phone and cost a bunch of problems. So I started using headphones. This works great when you’re playing bass, there are rarely issues. But when playing guitar I’ve had to go as far as using a USB interface on my computer plugging the guitar directly into it and using the amp sounds within the program. However it regularly grinds to a halt like the audio engine can’t support it, even though I’m running it on a really good system that I custom built. There’s one particular exercise were in a matter how many times I hit this one particular low email it won’t register it. A succession of two emails and it just won’t register the second one like two out of three times. Making it impossible for me to get gold stars and making me very frustrated. I’m so mad at this program right now.Electromagnet83Version: 2.51.0

Annoying bug keeps me from playingWhen I first got yousician, I thought it was an amazing app and I learned how to play real fast, well in my perspective at least. Anyhow, I like being on call with people and I used to stay on call while playing in yousician, but one day an update stopped that. Basically now, anytime I try selecting a song or tuning my guitar, it says “please select an audio output” so I pick one of the following, after that it tells me that it failed. I’ve tried most of everything I could. In the end, im not able to use the app when on call, I have to end the call to play and I don’t like that. Other than this, everything is fair and amazing. I just can’t use the app as much and no longer plan on buying premium, why would I if I don’t use the app often. If I find a way around this, if it fixes, or something that allows me to use the app while on a call, I’ll gladly change my review. (Edit after response) -already contacted support after putting up this review, sadly enough after they looked into it, they said the mic won’t work with the call on, and they recommended me use the app after I’m off call... I wouldn’t be here if it was just as simple as me ending the call..K4rm4 Ki115Version: 2.57.0

What once was a great app is now ruinedI’ve virtually never written a review in my life but I felt compelled to in this situation considering how much I used to love this app. I downloaded Yousician over a year ago and was initially blown away. I used to take guitar lessons when I was much younger and the app made it so easy to pick it back up again. Lessons used to be guided with videos and your progression in technique was mapped out in a diagram that outlined what had been completed and what was yet to come. There were several other competitor apps that I considered but what really set Yousician apart was the community of shared and user created content. With recent updates to the app they’ve removed user created content wiping out 90% of their artist and song catalogue. (For those of you who don’t understand the significance of this, user created content enabled you to find virtually any song you were looking for.) After reading that “popular” songs were reserved for premium+ subscribers I upgraded only to be disappointed, again, at the lack of content. For any new users reading who have signed up since July/August, this app used to offer so much more without having to trick people into paying more for less. And what an absolute shame, it really used to be great..DariusmrVersion: 2.62.1

Unbelievably dishonestAt first, Yousician was great. Easy to use, fun, and with great community. The yearly sub for one instrument was pricey ($150 CAD), but I committed to using it daily to get the value. However, once the company realized the most popular feature was the user created content, they removed all of it under the auspices of some “new features” they wanted to implement. Turns out this was their own version of the same content, and now requires a “Premium+” membership to use. And that is another $100. Truly unbelievable. I would strongly encourage all current users to write reviews and rate accordingly, and anyone thinking of getting Yousician to avoid it like the plague. Sad to see such a promising app get killed by a company trying to screw people over..JPC76Version: 2.59.0

Sucks so hardThis app has a “free session” of frickin 10 mins a day, which is complete bull[insert_here]. Get a real music teacher instead of this crappy app trying SO HARD to get money from you by paying 150CAD a year for a subscription that doesn’t even allow user created content. For that u need to pay another 70$ making it a 220CAD subscription. Total bullcrap. I can compare Yousician to Disney now cuz all they want is money and nothing else. The devs of Yousician can go to hell along with these outrageous subscription prices..HonestReviews996Version: 3.24.0

Free trial cost me $100....Cancelled my free trial before the end date, charged for 3 months anyway. Apple won’t refund my money as cancelling before end date isn’t a good enough reason for a refund.... Thanks for stealing my money!.CkydmkVersion: 3.23.0

Don’tI got worse than i was. It’s way to much money for an app that didn’t seem to be working nor helping me. Overall i had high expectations but this app just sucked. Your better off with a real music teacher.JM curiousVersion: 3.15.0

Worst game everWhy dose every game I try to learn to play songs cause it says learn you favourite songs for free you have to pay for a membership I don’t recommend for someone who can’t afford it like me.HalowjkVersion: 3.23.0

It sucksYou basically can’t play any song unless you pay.Kabobado1Version: 4.11.3

WorstWorst app ever! It says it’s free every day! You only get ten minutes a day! You have to pay tones of money for the real thing! Do not get this dumb app..VENTURA#1Version: 4.21.1

Good then bad to worseFirst it was very fun but in 2 days I stoped playing because I only got 20 min for free trial.SenannaVersion: 4.19.0

Yeah Ok27 bucks a month yeah right maybe a one time payment! Way over priced for a rip off of Rocksmith.The WalknRollerVersion: 3.15.0

Won’t pick up on soundsWon’t pick up on my high e chord and refuses to hear it.Canadian_altmemerVersion: 3.15.0

HmmmmThey have hidden fees which is fine, but my problem was I had headphones on, didn’t have the guitar in hand just yet wanted to review the notes so I expected all the notes to go red as if I missed it, some were hit which is bothersome how accurate is it if that happens?? For a 169.99 I was hoping it would be way more accurate then that. Fender Play is another option..BeladolVersion: 3.8.0

Not ACTUALLY freeYou used to get a free allotted time slot each 24 hours for a smooth learning experience. Now, you get a free 10 min or slightly more session in which you can progress as far as you’d like but after that to progress ANY further you HAVE to buy the subscription. Which is just pointless. It’s a free app sure. But the services are heavily priced at a ridiculous mark up. Trash app, use Justin guitars online for an actual FREE learning experience. This isn’t the app it once was. Greed infects all those who touch it. Or so it seems..AdrtahsjVersion: 4.92.0

Stupid appI can just play 4 songs and it cost too much just for that Don’t download this dump app😤.Tomlap22Version: 4.73.0

Not worth your timeThey say it’s free it’s not you have to pay if you want to learn more about playing the guitar. Also it’s not cheap 40.00 a mounts you can go on YouTube for Free and learn..Mathew clark 1ststVersion: 4.21.1

Don’t buy unless you’re rich!The free version totally sucks, you can only do lessons and songs for 10 minutes a day which is not nearly enough to actually learn anything and there’s no way I’m spending 200$ a year for premium. Unless you’re Mark Zuckerberg and can actually afford to pay $200 a year on a stupid app, I wouldn’t recommend it..A broke nibbaVersion: 4.21.1

DisappointedSigned up for the free version. Started learning an was hit with two ads in about 5 minutes time trying to sell me the $199.99 subscription. Nothing free about this. Probably would have signed on if they had been less pushy and offered more an intro. It does look like a promising app. Also not signing up for that free month. I know how hard it can be to get those cancelled..AchillesKWVersion: 4.21.1

Stole my money!!I canceled my three month subscription after it renewed and so it was still good until feb 21.2021. When I loaded the app it gave me a offer to renew a full year at a discounted price. Saying it wouldn’t charge my card until my current three month subscription ran out. Instead it charged me instantly..Bobtinder73Version: 4.20.1

Steals your moneyCancelled my free trial but charge me anyways. Took $199 on my card and when i was trying to use the app it doesn’t work as I expected to. Very disappointing..Yanie05Version: 4.20.1

StupidIt doesn’t really teach you notes which is what I am trying to learn it’s more about riffs and that which is stupid it should focus on the notes more cuz without notes there wouldn’t be music.10384829492Version: 4.19.0

Too costlyThis app might be good but only when they let me explore it which they don’t, they just keep asking for hundreds of dollars.Sadik TohaVersion: 4.19.0

TERRIBLE APPTerrible when I click on the how to play video it just loads I’m at an area with really good wifi and it just doesn’t let me watch the video. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND..Noah 2020Version: 4.18.0

Deceptive adGood luck on the advertised free app. It will not get you anywhere. And I hope they fooled so many subscribers as the ads is not just non-stop and annoying that I decided I will never give them money as I even should be paid for the annoying over and over ads everywhere; like everywhere!.Aussie BeersVersion: 4.17.1

DisappointedThis app sucks.Dab123122Version: 4.19.0

Cost 160-250$ per yearYou won’t have a free trial unless you subscribe to a plan from 160$ to 250$ per year. I never found a way to just try it without subscription..YtdbcgftdnVersion: 3.23.0

Déception totaleCette application est vraiment nulle sérieusement je suis vraiment déçue.DdddddefgxfcvsVersion: 3.19.1

Premium Fee PredatorThis app automatically charges a premium service to your CC after the ‘free test’ is complete and you wake up with an $80+ charge for a service that you will not use. They do not send out an email warning the potential user of this fee and run it through. I find this practice to be particularly predatory and not fair. I’ll change this review when they refund my money. - Sam.Sam demoeVersion: 3.16.0

I hate this appThe reason I hate this app is because when I play my use in right tune it is red.Aloha one toVersion: 4.21.1
