Very useable!!!

I am happy with this app! It does so little, that I can actually write tabs down. Roll-a-dex style selection allows you to plunk in the fret number. It's slow going, but very effective. You can also write in custom chords. You can keep a chord library, say you are playing in open D tuning, but you want to play a chord; if you know how the chord is played in open D, just write it in! You'll have that chord at your disposal. As I said, very useable! Thanks Dev!!!! Someone got it right!!
Amazing

This app does what it has to do and it's easy to use! But it crashes when you trie to rename files...
Great App!

The app works fairly well but many times doesn't save it and then crashes. It exports perfectly though.
Very limited

This app is heading in the right direction but very limited right now. I was not able to include lyrics, chord names, or a bar in the right places and this is just what I found in the first 5 minutes of messing with it. I believe the app should be free at its current design.
Good as-is, could use some polishing

This is helpful if you want to quickly write down a little riff or something you're working on. Making a large song is a bit tedious. I like the fact that it has air drop support so I can save the text files on my MacBook. I would recommend the developers take time to make it easier to use right out of the box.
Good start.. but very limited

I like that I can finally create tabs on mobile device but this app missing a few things that would make it much better. Here are several: Should use a monospaced font (like courier) so exported tab alignment isn't distorted. Should be able to add repeats, 1/4 1/2 3/4 Full bend symbols, long slides, tremolo etc. Change number of strings for bass & guitar. Export options (Tabtoolkit & GuitarPro would be very useful). When adding lyrics would be better if they insert at your cursor position instead of left. Just a few of my initial observations. Could be a great tool and I'm looking forward to future updates.
Not Very Usefull

The Good: 1) tabs can be created and edited with this program. 2) Limited export options are available. 3) it is not, nor should it be, costly. The Bad: 1) Tab entry is very cumbersome. 2) There is no playback mode. 3) As aforementioned, export is limited. PDF can be scanned into Finale but exporting to GPX or other tab editor format would be more helpful. 3) Forget about note dynamics and effects - ghost, dead, grace, staccato, vibrato and most others ad nauseum cannot be entered. In all fairness, they do have a P, B, H and a /. They are located on a spinning wheel, which also includes a Blank, and X in addition to the numbers from 0 to 22. Place six of these spinning wheels together and dial away. Let's hope that you can enter a tab in a reasonable amount of time. I found it a nightmare. 4) There are separate screens for note tabs and chord tabs. Navigation between the two seemed galumphing. 5) There is quite a bit more to this program's hollowness, but let me end this critique by summarizing what you have already gathered, if you read the above: In my humble opinion, this program's function as a tab building and editor is rather limited and if it were being sold for free, it would still be a bit overpriced. 6) Just one more caveat; note duration is not addressed.
What I want to see from this

Overall this is an amazing app. The ability to tab out things on the fly is crucial to any guitarist. 1. Please add in a 'play tab' interface/system where you are able to hear the tab you have made. 2. add a 'home page' where you can easily select create new tab or edit old tab or use a current one. Now the only bug I have experienced is the crashing here and there. If there could be a bug fix patch as well that would be sweet.
