Ratings and Reviews
Brilliant app
I don’t often write reviews but I just had to for this app. I have struggled through lessons, used books and tried other apps but Fender is the first where I have made some real progress in my skills and ability to play guitar. Fender obviously have put a lot of thought and effort into delivering a very good mix of building knowledge, skills and keeping you interested to stick with their course to allow you to achieve the level of playing guitar that you want to achieve, at your own pace. Lesson length is great, so you can sneak in some practice throughout the day even when busy. App layout is,good, easy to use, simple to navigate. Scaffolding knowledge for easier retention. Highly recommended for beginners and more proficient players.
So good until the recent update
I have been using the Fender app for around 8 months to learn both the guitar and ukulele. It has been amazingly helpful and well structured with a great mix of chords, exercises, riff’s and tunes across different instruments and genres.
However, the recent update has, in my opinion, made it a much less enjoyable and intuitive app. In the previous version (pre mid November 2023) practice tunes had both the tab’s and chord names which made finding the right fingering much easier as I learned. The update has taken these tab’s from the main view and replaced them with tiny and hard to read letters for each chord, making it both harder for slow learners like me to position my fingers right as I need to remember the finger placement for the chord much earlier in the learning process. The tiny and hard to read letters for the chords are also really hard to read even with my glasses.
So, please can we have the old format back, or maybe an option to switch between the old and new formats?
Good app but could do with a few tweaks
I love this app. The lessons are well explained. I love reading along with the music or tablature it I would love it if you could add the feature to shrink the video so you can see more of the written music so you don’t have to quickly scroll down while playing. Or even better than this make the music scroll by its self as we play along. Another nice add on would be to make the music change colour as you play it so beginners don’t get lost on where they are up to.
