simply amazing!! I'm a complete beginner - the only thing close to a guitar I've ever played is the tiny ukulele toy my mom got me when I was younger. now, I'm holding the guitar like a pro and learning frets and chords so easily!! EDIT- anything besides two chords, tuning, and basic fret playing is locked behind a paywall of $89.99 A YEAR. I recommend it for beginners, but unless you're ready to spend that much money I'd say avoid it. it's truly a nice app regardless, and I like it except that.

If you want to learn basic guitar skills like chords, leads and more. The app will be a good option, but I do not consider this a master course since this does not teach you how to read tab and/or any music theory skills and does not teach about BPMs either, which will make it more complicated for you in order to play any song or practice without the app. Another big flaw I found was the microphone, it does not respond correctly to the notes you play and it can interpret another sound as t note.

I guess this may be good for basic understanding and rhythm practice but it provides zero help to playing in tune - I don't mean whether your guitar is in tune or not (the tuner is reasonable in a pinch) but the app doesn't know whether you're playing the right notes\chord or not. I can set my guitar down and just tap my phone to trigger the success of hitting the notes in the practice sessions. So I'll assume it's using the g-sensor to pick up vibrations to say 'yeah you strummed a string'.
