Well it's pretty good in the beginning, but compared to yousician i have to give it 2*. Tutorials are well explained, but there are too few songs for me, and those songs that are available are way too short, mostly too easy and only available in 1 diffuculty. In Yousician you have way more songs, they are almost all the full lenght and feature multiple ways to play it, whether you wanna play lead or with chords. Every song has multiple versions and difficulties.

Unusuable. The videos are good and that is it. Before uvstart playing u have to tube ur guitar. Even rifht after setting the tune, the app wont register an open string a lot of times. On the other hand it registers correct notes and chords even u are not playing at all!!! There is also no feedback if you are in time or not. The app just listens, no matter when the strings are strummed. Srsly not worth the money. I should have read the the reviews first.

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'.
