Features & Capabilities

Guitar Pro Mobile is the companion app to view and play sheet music and tablature created with the Guitar Pro ecosystem. It’s ideal for practicing on the go and capturing musical ideas with the NotePad single-track tablature tool, which you can later finish on desktop Guitar Pro.

Key features include support for GP3–GP8 (.gp) and PowerTab (.ptb), tab and standard notation, a multitrack player with metronome and tempo controls, fretboard view for left- and right-handed players, on‑the‑fly transposition and looping, file loading via WiFi, iTunes, or email, dark/light modes, export to PDF, and the option to export NotePad ideas to GP6/GP7 formats for continued work on desktop. It also integrates with MySongBook for sheet music access.

User Reviews

Guitar Pro on iOS serves as a portable, low-cost companion for practicing and accessing GP files on the go. However, it struggles as a desktop replacement due to paywalls for songs, limited editing and file management features, audio/compatibility shortcomings, and slow updates. Users repeatedly note it’s best for practice rather than full composition or editing workflows, with reliability and parity issues dampening the experience.

Pros

Portable practice tool for on-the-go use, including fingerstyle practice.
Lower overall cost for mobile use compared to the desktop version.
Access to Guitar Pro files and ecosystem on mobile via the GP browser, allowing you to open and view files on the go.
Useful for learning riffs and practicing techniques.

Cons

Requires a paid app plus additional subscription/credits to access songs, leading to paywalls and ongoing costs.
Not a full editor: editing capabilities are limited or removed (e.g., copy/paste), making it feel like a viewer rather than a desktop replacement.
Audio quality and feature parity with the desktop version are lacking (MIDI quality is uneven; limited audio file integration or synchronization with tabs).
File management and reliability issues (files can appear corrupted, poor cloud/structure handling, and awkward file navigation).
Update frequency and parity with the desktop app are lagging (slow updates and removal of previously available features).

Great app for learning when mysongbook works, but loses connection and can’t access tabs even though viewing mysongbook account via the app is possible. Frequently shows error that mysongbook account not connected even when logged in. Marked down for this bug, otherwise 5 star app. Even though I’ve bought score on mysongbook on my mac GP Pro8, the iPad app asks me to buy it again. Won’t sync the score. iPad MSB account shows I’ve bought the song and asks me to buy it again. Why?

Terrible app after you pay for the app you have to pay for the songs !

I use guitar pro 8 on my computer almost every day when practicing. I've used the mobile app maybe 5 times. I wouldn't recommend the mobile app unless you absolutely need to write tabs in a life or death situation. Even if you don't own a computer, I'd recommend other options first. The midi audio quality is alright. It's almost like 8 bit sounds, which is kinda cool, but terrible compared to the desktop application. I'm not expecting modern sounding midi guitar from the mobile app, so it's not really my biggest complaint though. It's more that the articulations such as palm muting, slides, and bends can be bad. Writing tabs on the app is abysmal. I've done it once to remember something, but it was almost not worth it. You cannot add an audio file to the tabs like you can on desktop. So if you have jam tracks that you'd like to sync up to the tabs, you won't be doing that on mobile. Adding this feature would sort of negate my complaint about the audio. If I could sync an audio file to the tabs, I would just mute the tabs and only play the audio.
