I really love this app as a whole but somethings going on with it. The problem could be my guitar or my phone but I dont know. So, there's this one part where after you learn the cords you have to play them at the right time and make it through. But the same thing keeps happening to me. I'll play them and then it turns red. Which I guess it could be what its supposed to do but then each one keeps doing the same thing. And then after a few it restarts me! I dont understand it! Please help me!!

this app is great until it's not. it stopped playing the songs correctly, very glitchy, and I pay for subscription. Now I cant move pass lead foundations because it will not recognize the notes played so it keeps failing to move me forward to continue the learning process. I would keep using this app if I can get this fixed, otherwise I will be forced to use a different app.

didnt even last 5 minutes on the app. Many other apps allow you to skip a course or part if you'd like. I watched the intro video and after that it gorces you to tune your guitar. I didnt need my guitar tuned. and I couldn't skip that part. it forced me to tune and since it was not accurate the tune despite trying everything I could, it would not allow me to skip into the courses. got stuck on tune. never again.
