    I love the sounds/songs this app puts out. There were a couple accessibility issues that were standing in the way of my being able to dive in and create with it. I wrote them, they make improvements, and now I'm having fun creating new music with this.
  • Suport is not good

    Review revision: I did figure out how to synch between my three devices. But I still think some kind of a written manual would be useful - and not that hard to do. Original review I have this app on my Mac, my iPhone and my iPad. I use it every day for at least an hour. So I really like it. But there's not manual and the Youtube videos are not that helpful. Also, contacting them for support is useless. I've asked them about how I synch between my three devices and I just keep getting a link to a useless video about installing the app on ultiple devices. It seems they could do a lot better if they just had a simple written set of instructions like every other piece of of software.
  • Game Changer

    I am an intermediate guitar player, learning jazz. This app, after even one week of regular use, has accelerated my ability to learn jazz by orders of magnitude. This is what I have been looking for forever. After a few more years of regular use, I am confident I will become the expressive melodic musician I have always knew I was able to become, I can already feel it starting to build. I am forever grateful to iReal Pro, for the continued gift of learning music. You got a lifelong champion in me. Bravo.
  • One Page Limit is a Deal-Breaker

    I just wanted to make some nice looking chord charts to share with a bandmate. Had I known you can't go over a page, I wouldn't have wasted $20.
  • Great for beginners

    Just playing shell/tone chords along with songs allows you to start feeling more 'musical' as a beginning guitar player, which I am. Being able to slow down the tempo is super helpful. iReal has made learning more enjoyable and fun.
  • Editing is awful

    By Shadwell von Bernstein
    I like this app, but get with the 20th century and make score editing usable. Add, edit, insert, delete... these are not new concepts but you make them incomprensible and a real hassle.
  • Great app but...

    Great app though be aware you have to purchase the desktop and iOS version separately. I had to get on with Apple Support to determine this.
  • iReal is really great

    I play Trad Jazz and had been looking for backing tracks. A friend showed me how to go to the globe and find over 200 backing tracks for trad jazz dixieland.

    iRealPro is like having a pro rhythm section with wide repertoire set up in my practice studio and on call around the clock every day. iRealPro is a great gift to jazz musicians from beginners to professionals. I practice to iRealPro tracks almost every day. Boundless thanks!
  • Indispensable Tool

    Without iReal Pro, life itself would be imposible. Ok, a bit overstated, but this thing is really indspensable. I use both the MacOS and iOS versions every single day. The charts are reliably accurate and you can change keys on the fly. Wow!
