Review momentum
20/100
faster than 0% of Music apps
Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.

"I have spent all of my life wanting to play the thoughts in my head through a guitar, but I could never grasp playing... When I connected this app to GarageBand and recorded a tune, I cried... From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU." - 5 star user review from the United States
"My guitarist friend had a stroke that paralyzed the left side of his body and left him unable to play. I fired up Guitarism and handed my iPhone to him. A minute later he was singing and playing, his wife began to tear up and the smiles filled the room. Thank you thank you thank you." - 5 star user review from Canada

A guitar app for those who love the physical, visceral experience of playing guitar! guitarism offers a highly tuned strumming interface integrated with spectacular guitar samples.

- The most natural interface around - literally play with your eyes closed
- Four guitars included: acoustic, electric, 12-string acoustic and 12-string electric
- 10 concert-quality effects, including Distortion, Chorus and Auto Wah, plus a powerful electric guitar amp
- 18 active chords at a time, from hundreds to choose from
- Real playing techniques: fret muting, hammer-ons and pull-offs
- Lefty mode
- Beautiful skins and a diverse range of presets to give you maximum control over your tone and sound
- Beautiful artwork from graphic artist Ryan Hemeon
