    Fret Board Position Markings
    I love this app. Position Markings or fret numbers on the side would be helpful. I’d prefer markings or side dots.

    Wonderful tool
    This is a wonderful tool to assist beginners on learning chord fingering.

    Huge list of tunings
    Great resource to quickly look up scales and chords for dozens of banjo tunings

    Where are the fret markers?
    No fret markers on the fret board makes me think someone without banjo background wrote this. Where are the pentatonic scales? Also, it looks like all scales are single string without melodic based scales (Keith style). Show more

    The best!
    I use this app almost daily. It is easy to use and very helpful.

    Pop quiz: where can you find YouTube videos?
    On this app! Why do I need to download a stupid app just to watch Youtube videos? this is the worst waste of space on a phone. Srsly Apple, are you even reviewing this garbage anymore? Show more

    Great!
    Best way to learn and see all of the chords and scale clearly. I appreciate this app.

    App Crashes after open for 6 sec.
    I paid for the all the chords version apparently before the "upgrade" that now crashes every time I try to use it.....

    Solid app for modes and scales
    Solid app for learning banjo as a second (or third) instrument. If you've got the fundamentals of music down this app lays out modal scales and chords very well. I'll probably buy the alternate tunings soon too. Show more

    Very helpful
    Very good app I just wish it had roll patterns.

    Junk!
    Very hard to get around in this app. Pretty much junk

    AD's
    I would have rated this a 5 but I just paid to remove the ads. Why is the Google ad still being displayed? Please remove or refund my money and I'll give you a 5 Show more

    Cool
    I like this app because it really sounds like a banjo.
  • Bongobates, 22.09.2014
    Mr
    No provision for capo. No way to enter custom tunings. Quite a few tunings but I rarely find what I am looking for. Ok otherwise.
  • Classic Dodge, 04.09.2014
    Terrible
    Not accurate at all ?

    I'm a beginner and use this app everyday.
    I just started playing the banjo 10 days ago (my first instrument to learn), and I have used this app since the first day. It does have several features that I don't understand yet, but (again) I am just starting out and haven't learned much yet. I use this app to help me tune my banjo, learn/check my chords, and I use the metronome all the time. I didn't give it give 5 stars only because I am not experienced enough to rate all the other features yet. Show more
  • Mattpier, 25.05.2014
    Not for beginners
    If you already know your way around the banjo this app may be more useful but if you are just starting it goes way over your head from the get go. Maybe I will come back to it in a few months after learning the basics some place else. Show more
  • Bluegrass Fanatic, 05.05.2014
    Excellent for learning chords and tuning!
    This application does everything it needs to do. It is an instructor, not a virtual banjo (you'll have to work harder than that to be a banjo virtuoso).

    No sound have to reboot
    There are occasions when the sound stops and and all I know to do is reboot
