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.

I think this is a great app to use for learning a guitar but the caveat for me is that i think the app has a problem listening." It doesn't register some notes when I play, especially when tuning a note tuning, it's always hard to fine tune it. I have a good phone and I have read a lot of good positive messages about this app, but if you can fine tune the hearing and listening of this app so that will register the notes better. Please fix this fast 😊For me this will make the app even better.

Great app. BUT I was almost done with the first lesson went on to the song at the end and it was talking about the membership. I have to pay 90$ for an app I thought was free just had a few add ons that I could purchase if I wanted to but wasn't required. But turns out I am required to pay. Unless the app will be completely useless. At least let us fully complete like a few lessons so at least we have some skill before to make us pay.
