OKMusician: Guitar & Ukulele 4+

Nearly Perfect!

I enjoy many aspects of this app, especially the tools. The built in tuner and chord library are amazing. The reverse chord finder is a brilliant idea. The user interface is simple, and the lessons are great. Ok Musician has wonderful customer service representatives that respond to emails very quickly. The main issue I have is that I’m unable to seamlessly switch back and forth between ukulele and guitar lessons. In order to access one or the other, I have to delete the app, and download it again. Thankfully the account saves my progress!

Terrible app, horrible lessons, lousy quality control

This app is filled with errors and typos, from the first screen (“chords”? Really?) to the instructions on how to pass a lesson (“you need “B” stars to continue”) (how many is B stars? It should say 4 but it says B on every lesson… what a junky app.) Also, on what planet would anyone ever teach a brand-new ukulele player the G chord as the 4th chord you’ll learn AND then expect them to be able to switch to it from C or Am or F in perfect 4/4 time? It goes crazy fast and is frustrating as heck. Also another typo I found as I was writing this: instead of “1st” it says “1th.” Is that pronounced “firsth” or “oneth”, OKMusician? :D What a terrible app. Certainly NOT upgrading or renewing. In fact, I’m deleting it. There are many other apps for ukulele out there and this one just has WAY too many issues and problems. Terrible proofreading. Oh, and the dude doing the lessons? He’s a chach, and his “humor” comes off as being a D bag.

1 on 1 coaching for ukulele learning

This is not my first time attempting to teach myself ukulele. I have an ukulele for two years and every time when I tried to learn ukulele from the scratch, I got stuck on evaluating my performance. That’s why when I saw “1 one 1 coaching sessions” in the ads and it just hit me like “Oh my God, this is exactly what I need!” The first thing I do after getting the OKukulele app is to ask a coach for instructions and suggestion, and I got very useful and inspiring tips for improving my ukulele skills. I think I am starting to learn because of the app :)
