User Reviews

Overall, users praise Guitar Tab Maker as beginner-friendly and fast for creating and sharing tabs. The app shines with a simple, tap-based fretboard input, easy editing and playback, and a solid free feature set that suits casual players or band rehearsals. Many also appreciate quick saving and cross-device access to saved tabs. However, reviewers repeatedly note gaps for advanced notation (hammer-ons, pull-offs, slides, harmonics, muting), limited printing/export options, and a paywall after a small free quota. Other tweaks include tuning changes and a cleaner UI. It’s practical with room for growth.

Pros

Easy to use / beginner-friendly interface.
Tap-based fretboard input for quick tab creation.
Free base feature set is sufficient for many users.
Playback and editing capabilities for checking and adjusting tabs.
Easy sharing/collaboration of tabs with bandmates.

Cons

Lack of advanced notation features (hammer-ons, pull-offs, slides, harmonics, vibrato) and muted strings.
Printing/export options are limited; no batch export and saving/organization can be unclear.
Paywall after a small number of free tabs; perceived poor value.
Tuning changes are limited (difficulty changing tunings, e.g., drop D).
UI/UX and learning curve issues (unintuitive interactions, nomenclature not explained).

Recent reviews

I was very pleased with this app because i couldn’t find anything else on the app store that encompassed exactly what k needed it to do like this one, but unfortunately it seems like somehow several of the tabs i made before today just disappeared from the app entirely.
