Ratings and reviews

Beyond anything else from this app, the people behind it have been amazing with helping me out when I had questions and concerns. That is certainly what makes a good app. Personally, everything within this app was easy to find and easy to access. I had little to no trouble with anything while pulling it up on my phone. No crashing, no lagging, and no bugs to what I can see. I have learned a good bit from this app and definitely look forward to its continual growth! Thanks Guitar Tricks!!

The service and lessons included are all fine. The actual app however is terrible. There is a video on the top of each course that restarts EVERY TIME you exit a lesson, if you leave the app while watching a video it bugs out and displays a black screen, and the app will forget which course/lesson you're on. Just a bad user experience overall. Once again the actual content of the lessons is good. Just not the app.

I was surprised how much I like this app. The website is much more robust but that is expected when compared to a mobile app. Has a broad range of topics on gear, techniques, styles of music, artist techniques, etc. Very beginner friendly but also good for those who past the begining stages. Would recommend.
