Guitar Notepad - Tab Editor

New update fixed the issue of not being able to load the app without crashing. I did lose the tabs I had in there but it could have been from deleting the app at one point. Either way, I think it’s worth the couple bucks to have an app to quickly write down ideas or a quick Tab. I like the easy to use guitar fretboard as well as being able to switch to ukulele. Appreciate the update!

I just downloaded this app after the App Store says, “works with this iPad” which is an iPad Pro. Upon opening the app it immediately crashes and will not open the app whatsoever. Waste of $1.99. Nothing on their support page addresses app crash issues that I can see. To be fair, I’ll change the review if this is corrected. Otherwise, total waste of money on my part.

Unlike some other apps that kinda lead you on to think you can actually take useful and nice looking notes for the songs you’ve learned, this one actually does what it says. It has a learning curve and needs more instructions to operate but just play with it and you’ll figure it out if you at least know a little bit about music to get yourself started. The chord list currently doesn’t display properly on my iPhone 12. The dots are not displaying on most chords. Everything else is working fine so far.

Really useful app for all guitar players, especially if you have a lot of songs and tend to forget them easily :(

How do I change time signature and add rests?

I started to tab my first song and needed to tie a note into the next measure and I didn’t see this option. Is it available?

So far with my guitar the app works fine. But I’ve tried to make a custom for my mandolin, but the pitch of the strings are wrong. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Bb note displays it like C Fail

Thanks Phil, you seem to listen and care about the users, great customer service per say. Can’t wait to try out the new update!! Thanks!!

I’m new to writing tabs that look so great!! I’ve already had a couple suggestions (since I play less popular instruments like banjo and mountain dulcimer). Phil got right back with me and was receptive to adding those. After a week of using it I love it!! The only thing I’ve seen so far that would down rate it just a touch for me so far is that when I add a repeat the tab is uneven. That’s not a big deal or anything but the repeat makes it go just past the upper lines of tabs. Overall very fun to mess around with. I have a YT channel and I am making the tabs to what I’m posting so it’s definitely nice to have the ability to make good looking tabs. Thanks so much for this app, and the price was amazing!!
