    Very difficult to navigate and no search function
    If you haven’t already started a class on the website or want to see archived live classes, good luck. Your guitar will be compost before you ever get this to work. Show more

    UI
    App buttons and UI are not intuitive or properly sized. Struggle just to play a video or navigate lessons. Lessons are great though. App not so much.

    Unusable
    App opens up fine when not logged in. As soon as I sign in the app tries to load some data and crashes. I tried re-downloading several times. Still the same issue. I’ve tried different connections 5G/WiFi. Still the same issue. Show more

    Can’t open!
    Used to work great but I can’t open the latest version

    Recent release crashes
    Can’t get the app to open on iPhone. Crashes every time after I log in.

    JamPlay Needs Updating - Not compatible
    JamPlay had been great. It is not compatible with the latest iOS updates. It crashes at login.

    Used to work
    Now it crashes upon opening. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Same problem. Content is a 5, app is 0. Jamplay, can you reach out to me to help?

    Embarrassing miss and such opportunity
    Where do I begin? Lots of crashing. Click the pdf in the supplemental and it often crashes. Click some pdfs and it says you must have Guitar Pro. The supplemental sticks on the previous lesson. Imagine moving from lesson 5 to 12 and then noticing that the pdfs are still on lesson 5. Bizarre. There is dashboard. There is no playlist. There is no way to manage your practice selections versus what you surfed because it’s all in your progress page. This is super frustrating. Finally, the interactive tab you get on the website is missing from the app. It’s the one feature that separates it from Guitar Tricks. Not on the app. What a miss. Show more

    Very user-friendly app
    The JamPlay app is very user-friendly and easy to navigate. The app is nicely made and a big upgrade from what it used to be. Nice work JamPlay staff!

    Honestly really helpful
    It’s hard for me to even find the time to practice between work, life, and so on. JamPlay’s app made squeezing helpful lessons in to my very limited free time VERY easy and I’m actually noticing incremental improvements. Bravo! Show more

    A much needed rework
    Jamplay has always been great, but the app needed work. The UI is much easier to navigate and all the features work across the JamPlay site as well as the app. Show more

    Huge improvements right off the bat
    So great to see so many significant improvements made to the app. Tons of great guitar lessons spanning so many genres and styles — and song lessons too! Such a welcome update! Show more

    Old
    Looks like it hasn’t been updated in 10yrs

    Good lessons, outdated app
    I’ve been using this for a few months now. While the lessons are pretty good (sometimes a little long winded), the app is not the greatest. It doesn’t track progress of lessons very well. It doesn’t remember where you left off. You can do anything clever like watch the video and view music at the same time. It would almost be better off just posting to YouTube and having links to downloads. It feels lazy and outdated. Show more

    Terrible App Hinders Practice
    Going on my second year of the lessons which are great. Unfortunately the credibility of the service as a whole is severely hindered by the app. I’m sure I’m not the only person who uses there phone to access the content. At the time of this review, the app hasn’t been touched in 4 years so nobody is paying any attention to the users of the service. Please, get a current developer to redo this from the ground up. Things needing attention (in my opinion) 1. Make it so you don’t have to log in every time you open it. 2. Use iPhone native programming language for the tools. They seem to connect to some online tuner or metronome. 3. Organization of lessons is a bit confusing. 4. Video controls are not standard and clunky. Sorry for this poor review. I do like the lessons, I just don’t look forward to accessing them because of the app. Show more

    Can’t even get started.
    I ran across a video of somebody playing a dokken song.I like how it was easy to see what their hands were doing and I thought, what a cool app. I downloaded the app, looked up the song I wanted to learn. Attempted to upgrade And all your App does is buffer.Stuck in buffer mode and paralyzed. I just realize there must be similar apps out there, if this is any indication of how my money is going to be spent, I will pass. Good idea, Poor execution. At least you gave me the chance to see what your product was like before you took my money. Waste of time. I’m really disappointed Show more

    Love the Lessons, App Needs Work
    I’ve been using JamPlay online for about 6-months and lesson wise, I’m really enjoying it. However the app is all kinds of inconvenient. There is no remember option when closing the app, so each time you want to start a new session, you have to re-log in. And when I do log in, I try to view my prior lessons, but the app takes me to the upgrade membership section, despite having paid for a year of all content. The videos themselves are great, but if you’re looking for the app to replace using a web browser, this update will not be it. Show more

    Amazing service, app has a mile to go
    The most annoying thing about the app is that it signs you out every time you lock the phone. The app also does not remember the progress of the lesson or even the progress within the video. Having said that, the video quality is very high, the instructors are good. So it's a matter of Jamplay getting a good app developed for the great service they have. Show more

    Great service APP IS USELESS!
    I really like the Jam Play website on a computer. But the app is terrible. USELESS

    Great content; app needs improvement
    First, I mostly use JamPlay on my computer. The content is extensive and great. There are, however, issues with the app that have been complained of for a long time. They have not been addressed. For example, if you leave for even a few minutes, you may be required to sign back in. Once you do, you will have to navigate all the way down to where you left. Also, I haven’t figured out a way to download the supplemental documents so that you have them on your phone to review. It’s easy on the computer. Of course, since you have to relogin and navigate back to where you were, that wouldn’t be as helpful anyway. I have also had a few problems with the content fitting properly on my iPhone 7+ screen in portrait mode. And I have had some videos refuse to go to landscape mode. Don’t get me wrong. JamPlay is a great resource and learning tool. Possibly the best on the Internet. It’s just the app that needs improvement. The content is well worth the price. In the meantime, you should use it on a computer if you can. Show more
