Reviews: What People Think About TrueFire Guitar Lessons

Stompin Willy

Rating: 5/5

First off, I want to differentiate between the service, lessons and content, and the applications. Like the title says, I think the content is great. That said, I am not a fan of any of the interfaces into accessing it, whether it’s the web, the native Mac app, or the iOS app on an iPad. They all have some annoying quirks and glaring bugs that really need to be addressed. I’ve caught issues with keeping things in sync across the apps as well. The most annoying thing on this app is that it will start auto playing when I bring it to the front, and the only way to stop it is to find which specific lesson is playing and stop it. Starting a different lesson will just cause ANOTHER thing to start playing in addition. The preference for background playing is off. I just kill the app and then start it again instead. I’d love nothing more than to come back and give this five stars, because I think the content deserves it. But, the quality of the apps has to improve. As is, I think it’s bad enough that it detracts from the over all solution. Haven’t had any bad experience on the TV app. Yet. Please, put some attention on tightening things up. The content deserves it.

You can never get back to the home page without closing the app and restarting it. I just started using this app again. I had to do that 8 years ago and was thinking they would have fixed that by now. This isn’t a judgement of the content. The content is great. I’ve kept my phone and app updated and I’m using an iPhone 14 Pro at the moment. But I don’t see any difference between now and then which I find surprising. I wish they’d do a little makeover with the app just to fix its navigational abilities. Am I the only one with this problem? Without getting back to home page I can’t find the tools/tuner menu unless there is another way to get there. But I couldn’t find it. Just need to get back to that home page to check tuning once in a while. And then I’d go 4 stars. 5 stars would be if they improved pop up and casting performance. Pop ups seem to be hard to get rid of and the casting button can get hidden behind a pop up. Sometimes I have to close the program and restart just to get rid of pop ups just like I do to get back to the home page. Generally I’m rebooting 2 or 3 times a lesson. It’s annoying. I love True Fire but it really is time for them to come along and fix these things in the app. I generally use my phone for this. Everything works much better on a laptop and there is no issues. Just the iPhone.

I’m a professional musician and discovered Truefire because I wanted to learn to play the harmonica and had the luck of running into Annie Raines’ incredible course here. I then decided to also take a few of the guitar courses and I am truly impressed by the quality of the lessons. I am feeling that I am progressing every day as a musician. The lessons are not only top-quality but really fun and engaging. They really focus on musicality aside from being very specific on technical skills. They zoom in on the specific “feeling” behind a given technique and what it communicates and make learning much easier. I am also impressed by the selection of themes for each course. For instance, Sue Foley’s Trail Blazers course, which focuses on six legendary female guitarrists. Sophie Lloyd’s Bulletproof Rock Guitar course, too. It really feels like the curators for the courses want everyone to feel included. I also really like that we can purchase individual courses to own forever instead of having to get the monthly membership, even though the latter is also a great option. I couldn’t be happier with the platform and will keep coming back for more courses!
