Short review: I recommend this app for complete newbies that never took a guitar before like me. As you progress it becomes too slow and repetitive, and also less songs are unlocked as things go.
Long review:
This app was really good for me in the beginning, addicting, relatively fast to learn and do some nice things, but as you progress it becomes slow and repetitive.
- Sometimes I’m learning a new note, and then that whole lesson I have to do with ONLY that note, even to play a song with one single note. What’s the point of that? It’s boring as hell guys, make something more addicting in that sense, incorporating things people learned earlier…
- Now I’m on soloist IV, and I already play pretty much any song until that point, but the lessons are slow and make me first learn parts of the songs independently, then combine it, then play it in a dummy “setup” without being the real song, then I play the real song (again, that I have played before separately).
Another example, in soloist IV there’s a lesson that I need to switch from the first section to second section of the guitar… no joking, the app forces you to do that for every string, 2 times training, 2 more times playing it, and then the reverse afterwards. I’m obviously not against having that, but the repetition is simply insane…
Come on guys this is boring and slow as hell, if your intention is for me to keep the subscription going for longer it just causes the exact opposite effect on me. I’m considering unsubscribing because of that.
Make it more to the point and I’m pretty sure you’ll have people subscribed for more time. If you at least allowed some of these repetitive parts being skipped that’d make people happier, I would.
