Mostly good app. Couple bugs and suggestions

Bought the full app. This is the only iPad app I’ve found to write tabs with chords and notes. The interface is mostly good with a couple bugs and some desired features. First the bugs. Notice the audio playback only works through Bluetooth not speakers on iPad w/latest OS. Also noticed you cannot create a D chord in this app - it forces a barre chord across GBE strings.
Now some feature requests. Please add ability to denote hammers and pull-always like “8 p5” or “5 h8”. Please add ability to show finger numbers on chord diagrams above the tab. Please add ability to place text notes above/below or right/left of tab grids to describe techniques. If bugs were fixed and features added this is a 5-star + app!!

Jarring Price Change

So, this app was pretty useful for me for a while when I was just starting out playing guitar, because it was free, although it had limited access. Of course, I felt that was understandable considering it was free. There was a paid version though, like there is now, however the paid version was like 5$ for a one time purchase. After which, you would gain access to the pro version which was offered as an in app purchase. It had been like this for literal years, and I loved it. However, I got on the app today, and suddenly, it essentially just reverted me back to the limited free version, when I had already spent money on the app. All of this, because they wanted to switch to a subscription model, but I had already paid money. I don’t believe this is fair, and I feel like I should be entitled to a refund, or at least get the version back that I had already paid for. Regardless, I’m definitely not paying for a subscription when it can suddenly flip on a dime like this, and I wouldn’t recommend it either.

Imagine you bought something for like 5$ or something like that, because it could’ve honestly been more, and then suddenly, you no longer have access to it, and you have to pay 10$ a month for something you already had. It feels like a slap in the face.

Free version without subscription is USELESS, subscription is highway robbery

TL/DR synopsis: Pass on this one for now and save yourself the headache.

So I saw this and thought it might be helpful in putting music ideas to paper (or in this case, electrons). I had hopes for this app, but wanted to try it out before committing to any kind of subscription because $10/month is a lot to pay to save paper when I can print tab/staff lines for free and play them on my guiar instead of my iPad. But the free version is practically unusable. I’m unable to change time signatures and I get continuous pop up ads that interrupt my workflow. I don’t mind supporting the dev through ads IF I GET A FUNCTIONING PRODUCT. I get the developers have to earn a return on their investment of time and resources. But this app goes overboard and the bombardment of ads for something so useless is really just a pressure tactic to get you to commit to the subscription. I chose to delete the app instead. If they go to a more functional product with better ad spacing I might reinstall. If the monthly subscription was better priced I also might reconsider. But as it stands, this is an overpriced product at best, and the epitome of frustration due to constant interruptions at worst.
