45 Positive User Reviews for Ultimate Guitar: Chords & Tabs

Almost perfect

Key word being almost, I don’t like how you have to pay for premium for some of the things but it actually lets me play songs which is better than almost all the other apps I’ve tried

Subscription

I love this app but I feel that there are to many things that you need a subscription for.

Scummy but helpful

I used to love this app, I’ve learned so many songs on the piano, guitar and ukulele thanks to tabs pro. But, you have to be diligent with having a subscription because the app will continue to send you push notifications about discount year-long subscriptions with buzz words like one time only and if you sign up for it, it doesn’t cancel your old membership. Suddenly you’ll have two memberships or in my case, I found out I had three differently priced memberships. So lesson learned, you do not

I remember you

Thanks for yoir work here...🎶🎵

Great app except for 1 grievance

I prefer to use the website but it made me download the damn app just to see the chords of the song I wanted to play. No reason that the mobile site should only show me 2 chords.

Ultimate Guitar

Wonderful app for us lazy players with mediocre tone recogntion. Ive learned so many great songs!

Great! But….

The app is really great! And I love it. But I don’t understand why im not an exclusive because I paid for it but now it is saying I don’t have it.

This app is a must for Guitar/Bass/Ukelele

Thanks so much for the free songs! I know it takes a lot of work to put these on the app... may God bless your works! Jesus is alive!! JJ

Wow!!!!

I have never really known such a wide variety of online apps like U.G were out there supporting artists and their skill set. It’s nice to see the format for peer interaction .

Greatly indebted

Thank-you for making sight reading easy and learning more like figuring out

Very nice

I really enjoy the user friendliness of this app

Perfect but tuner broke.

The chromatic tuner no longer shows the notes. It’s really annoying and it has two sharp signs that keep lighting up for no reason. Please fix.

Rare gems

I’ve found ukulele tabs on several sleeper songs that are unavailable anywhere else. Very happy to have access to this program!

a feature i would love…

it would be amazing if you could shift the tuning of any song and it would give the chord shapes in that tuning. so, you could play any song in an open tuning instead of standard, because sometimes, it just sounds better that way. i love everything else about this app!!

Big boy app

It’s pretty cool.

Easy to follow chords

I've been playing On and off for Many years , just playing What I've Learned In high school, I am 58 years old now and really haven't found anything to teach me like this app.. If You just want to learn, or if you're rusty, this is the app for you.

Just Plain Fun

I’m nowhere close to being proficient on the acoustic guitar, but this app really helps and keeps me motivated. There are so many options that a guitar player can always find the right fit.

Transpose and Upload to OnSong Made Easy

I love the ability to quickly transpose chords and email them to myself and friends ! And I organize my songs / Setlist in OnSong 🎸😎

Very Easy to use

Very easy to use and has all the best songs

Could have been a star

Found this app in my late 50’s. If I had this in my younger days I could have been a star!!!! Now that is up to my grandson who comes over and plays with me. We each choose a song a week to learn so we learn two songs a week. Best day of the week!!!!

Everything is pro only

Everything is pro only

Satisfied Musician

As a musician I love this App!!! Whether for worship music, rock music, country music…. It doesn’t matter! It’s all there available in this app. All my friends have it now… we love it !! I can store so many songs and have them at a click of a button. It’s great for learning new material. Highly recommend this app

Favorite App!

It’s just a wonderful app, a few glitches, but you get so much without paying a cent! Website is awesome too.

Yep!

My go to tab service.

Worth it !!

I’ve had this for years. Best tab app available, period ! My go-to for how to play almost any song. More songs are added all the time !!

Learning so much!!!

Been playing for 18 months & finally had a break through in the past few weeks. This app has been a huge help 💯

Terrific App

I use this app almost daily to explore songs I want to learn to play.

I love it

I like the idea of a new song

Crash

App is crashing, not working and not opening anything. I can’t get anywhere in the app. It is updated. This is the second day in a row.

Good but slow

It has helped me but too slow

Amazing app!

I knew nothing and I got all I need to know about playing guitar on this app.

The Question Why

“ you can’t unpick “ …. sorry I was adjusting the lyrics. A little lame I know, but presently I only have one arm and hand operable!!

The best app for guitar players!

This app has been around for a long time and has always been up to date with all the tabs you could ever ask for. Also, i admire how loyal they are to customers. This app used to be a one time payment for a pro version, which i bought when it first came out, and they still honor that when they changed it over to subscription based without forcing me to pay monthly. Thanks for an amazing app and great team as a whole! Wish i could rate higher then a 5 star!

Great app

Very interactive

Love it.

OMG. THIS APP IS THE BEST IF I COULD RATE IT 10 STARS I WOULD RATE IT 10

glitchy

freezes constantly

Crashing

Love this app, but it keeps crashing lately

Great, but hecka expensive

It’s a great app, but I, like many, have to use it without an account to avoid paying over 100 dollars per year just for the normal subscription, and way more for the full feature version. Without an account you can see lyrics, cords, and strum patterns to most songs. However, you can’t have a play along go showing the cords, record yourself, post anything, or use the most popular songs without paying 100+ $

Don’t leave home without it

I use this app in various settings, church performances and playing in other groups. I use the lessons and learn so much from the courses. I rarely can’t find a song with the chord charts. I would definitely recommend this app! I use it almost every day as a musician and student. Thanks!

Best guitar learner app period

Whether you’re a beginner or advance, this app will help and teach you

too insistent on premium

great app, just very annoying with the persistence that we get premium. You can't even print without premium, very bothersome.

4 Negative User Reviews for Ultimate Guitar: Chords & Tabs

Used to be great

I bought this app several years ago, maybe more than a decade. It’s was great! Now they took away my access and put the features I’ve always used for free behind a paywall. So disappointed. Especially since much of what this app offers was contributed for free by app users.

Cash Grab

This app offers a lot of great resources, the problem is, upon opening the app, it constantly takes you to an ad about an extra feature it offers that you can x out of- you have to answer a bunch of questions about what you want to get out of the new feature, before you can continue to what you’ve come on the app to do in the first place. I have paid for a year of the pro subscription, but I’m constantly getting pop ups for pro +, courses, guitar, and the list goes on. It’s super annoying.

OK

Though I pay for a subscription still, I must sit through and endure clicking on buttons in order to have it personalized my experience for me. I do not want a personalized experience nor do I want to have to read and click through many screens in order to just access the tabs that I enjoy playing. Should not have to do that when I pay money for this app every year.

Watch for extra charges!

They have a lot of songs and this is app used to be extremely useful. However- they changed EVERYTHING. They’ll make it so when you open the app, you sign up for the most expensive program. They will keep having pop ups to get you to upgrade. On your phone, looking up a song, it is very easy to hit add or accept the upgrade. Eventually, they got me signed up and being charged for 3 things at once with no way to dispute or cancel. I had no idea until I went through my bills at tax time. These g
