An editorial reading of the saved reviews

A powerful mobile guitar-tab editor where people write their first songs and capture riffs and ideas, praising fast input and support for their own effects. The interface is quirky with a steep learning curve, and beginners struggle even after the tutorial. Playback is weak, notes ring at full sustain and jumble together, hammers, slides and bends are missing, plus complaints about crashes and paying twice on iPhone and iPad.

1 excerpt from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.

The playback is worthless, though, the notes all play full sustain, so that the whole thing jumbles into each note together.
