    Useful... but
    You mean to tell me that an app that I purchased is asking me to subscribe to get updates to functionality? Something stinks here.

    Waste
    They ignore you and they don’t want to help you. Horrible subscription... app ruined.

    Tone deaf
    Capo is supposed to be able to detect chords to songs and when I read that I thought it would be the right chords but I was thinking like a fool. The slow down feature is the only usable feature of this app. Update: after the recent update Capo did recognize the the first chord of AC/DC Highway to Hell but after that it totally failed. Good thing they named it Capo instead of Capable. Show more

    Easily the best tool out there
    As a music professor, professional musician and tutor, this software has exceeded any other form of ear training and transcription tool out there! I have analyzed Jazz solos, composition and have been able to transcribe elusive chords and sonorities with the spectrum analyzer. By far and away this tool has increased my own musicality triple fold. Absolutely worth every penny if you are a serious musician and professional. Show more

    Why subscription? I bought this app. Idiots application.
    Why subscription? I bought this app $9.99. Idiots application

    Somewhat misleading
    Program works great. Calling a required subscription after the trial period is over isn’t an in-app purchase that adds value to a free program.

    App Doesn’t Recognize Subscription
    I originally really enjoyed Capo. I think it’s one of the better tools for transcription. But I have since encountered a bug in the app that prevents me from using it in any meaningful way. This is why I have rated it 1 star. Here’s my issue: I have a Capo touch Pro subscription, but the Capo app will only let me play a 60-second trial of the song I’m trying to transcribe. In the song playback mode it thinks I am a trial user. The app tells me that I have a current subscription—when I go to “Choose a Plan” under Settings it says as much—but it won’t let me listen to a song for more than 60 seconds. This makes the app unusable. I contacted Capo support, who was initially quite responsive but weeks later they still have not fixed the problem. I like this app, but I am very disappointed that I have spent money on an annual subscription that is currently getting wasted as time goes by where I cannot use it. I hope they fix the problem soon so I can use the remainder of my annual subscription. Show more

    A MUST for jazz drummers!
    I have used this app for years. It has been a “Game Changer” in helping jazz drummers hear the rhythms, drums, and sticking of solos by slowing the tempo down. The app is great because it maintains the sound quality like no other app. Show more

    Subscription services are lucrative for developers, I guess. But, for the user I have to decide which apps to subscribe to (if any) and which ones I have to quit using because I can’t afford a subscription for every app I use. I don’t mind buying an app at all, but having to pay an annual fee is just beyond my means. And so, I will switch my slow-down app to something else other than Capo because they, at some point, will go to the next version (x.x or Y.x or whatever) and I will be left in the dust having to subscribe again to enjoy some minor tweak of the app. If every developer ends up with subscription requirements I will just have to abandon my support for them all. How many $50, $20, $75, $20, $40, $20, $25 services can you afford? For me it’s not many and so I just stop using an app that thinks their product should charge me a monthly or annual fee to use it!! There are plenty of alternatives out there. The smart developer should appreciate their customer’s PURCHASE of an app, like I did with Capo years ago, to support their further development of the app. They should take into consideration that users will have to decide which apps to keep or which apps to abandon. The less used apps I have will be the first to go. And, Capo falls into that category as there are many alternatives that don’t require a subscription fee after purchase. Show more

    Useless
    Used Capo for many years with my laptop but this is useless. Cant even add 1 song to try before buying it.
  • Dreadpiratecorey, 29.03.2020
    Free Version is No Version at All
    The free version of this otherwise promising program is so useless that I don’t even get a good sense of what the pro version would improve. I despise this sort of “in app purchase” silliness when the product does absolutely nothing otherwise. Rather than driving me to upgrade, I’ve decided to never use a product so cynically marketed. Uninstalling...NOW. Show more

    half of nothing is still only nothing
    seriously? why did you bother if you don’t understand. at all ?? thanks tho ?? the intentions were obviously good but musicians are not rich enough for this especially if it’s worthless to begin with. geez. you play ? i didn’t think so. Show more

    Love this app - it’s a big timesaver
    This is the fastest way I’ve found to quickly get basic chord changes and beat counts from MP3s. Can also set up loops to keep going over tough parts. Nice. Uses iCloud storage to save your files and save specs on the device. Which I like. Development team responds to emails and questions. Which I like. Disclaimer....No app that does chord recognition is perfect. You may still need to have some musical expertise to fill in some missing pieces. But this one is as good as any and better and faster and easier than others I’ve used. Me recommend you buy dis Show more

    Terrible Transition to New Version
    I’ve purchased and used Capo for years. Now they want me to cough up a bunch of money every month or year to use the same app I already bought! The restore purchases conveniently doesn’t work in this latest version, so I’m out of luck unless I decide to pay. I’ll be switching to another app, thanks Capo. Show more

    Good but could be GREAT
    I love this app, but HATE that you can only use songs you’ve bought from iTunes. I can’t use ALL the songs I’ve bought from iTunes dating all the way back to 2006 or songs that I burned off my CD’s when I converted everything to digital. Show more

    FANTASTIC !
    I use this app every day for teaching and my own practice. I don’t know how I lived without it ! Well, I do know: it was cumbersome and aggravating. This app does everything : slow down , change keys, loop. I love it. Show more

    Just arrived not impressed
    I thought this had something to do with decoding hard solos I guess it does just slow down things a bit but why Is 90% of my catalog denied and I only have a blank screen is I’m trying to load a song? Show more
