Gibson: Learn to Play Guitar
authentic ratingThe app hooks beginners hard: you play live against your own guitar, levels and competition motivate, and people genuinely progress within a couple of months. But it has been dumbed down for advanced players, cut iconic songs over licensing, and input latency plus lost progress after updates erode trust. Many are annoyed that songs and tabs increasingly sit behind extra charges on top of the subscription.
Reviews are very concrete: pulling AC/DC, Hendrix and Metallica over licensing, input latency, points awarded without actually playing a note, progress lost after an update. The low textAvg 3.44 vs storeAvg 4.76 is fed by honest anger over removed songs, not by inflation.
