I subscribed to the print and digital version. I was unable to log into the print version and after finally being able to it said I had to pay to download the current issue. After numerous attempts to contact the company I only received automated messages with a link to the same useless faq page on TotalGuitar . I had no choice but to turn the matter over to the fraud department of my bank in order to get my money back. Don’t waste your money on this.

I have had TotalGuitar for awhile and all was great. Tried to read one if my back issues. Got message that my files were corrupted and was instructed to delete and re-download my issues. Now I see that a couple of issues I had purchased are gone. I have to buy them again to read them. Emailed the developer twice and no response. Screw em, I'll never give them another dime!!!!!

Magazines are great when they open, but TotalGuitar is getting even buggier as time goes on, and their customer support is useless: delete and reload is the only answer (and that means starting over again from scratch to download any issues that you own)

All the Future Magazine apps appear to be crashing since iOS 11. Looks like the last update to TotalGuitar was a year ago.

This is only the front end for the pay per issue. What is a joke is the magazine comes with a CD that is referenced all through the issue. They do not provide access for the CD content. So on other words , you pay more than the normal subscription, and receive less, and cannot print anything from the issue. Pretty much a useless ripoff!

App hangs and fails to find subscription info - just caught in a loop with a revolving circle icon. Also does not seem to load magazine on multiple devices as promised i.e. I subscribed on iPad 2 (which now hangs) but fails to load on iPhone 4s. Looks like it needs work.

Just installed the update and now as well as the icon in the Newsstand, I have an extra Total Guitar icon outside of that which doesn't do anything. Not a huge deal but it looks weird.

I imagine this magazine would be okay on an iPad. But on an iPhone the screen is really just too small to sit here and read a magazine. The included tabs in particular would have been great in the paper magazine or maybe on an iPad, but they're useless to me on my iPhone and I have no way to print them. The rest of the content is something between a fan magazine and a player's magazine but I guess that's to be expected. At least the copy I chose to buy had an article about Mastadon in it. But typical of the way this magazine sort of touches on subjects and then quickly moves on, it showed photos of their guitar rigs but didn't explain the much. I might pick up a paper copy of this magazine sometime, especially since it comes with a CD, but I don't think I'll bother with the iPhone version ever again.

This is, basically, Total Guitar magazine on the iPad. Now I know that sounds obvious but given all the 1 star, 'it's not free' comments you'd think people would realize this. It's a high quality magazine which reviews guitars, guitar gear, song notation for guitar, guitar players ... I think you get the picture. It looks exactly like the magazine, the picture quality excellent as are the reviews.
Since they (the company produces a lot of magazines) are produced in the UK the cost in the US was high, I always preferred this (and Guitarist) to their US equivalents so it's great to be able to get these at a reasonable cost. Of course all the (minimal) gear ads are for the UK, but that never bothered me even when I purchased the original mag!
I much prefer having these on the iPad rather than the paper, now I don't have to throw away my old mags anymore.
4 stars since you can't jump to pages from the table of contents
Currently you can download a free example

It’s fun to read and good songs to play.

Guitar inspiration for all levels. Not only do you get excellent lessons with audio but toss in great artist interviews from not only established artist but also some artist below the mainstream audience. This is one of the places I learn of some amazing artists. Then add gear reviews that give you all info you need, all in a handy well presented format. Worth every penny!

Nothing is free in life, although I do agree they should have samples. What's deceiving is the fact that TotalGuitar is free but there isn't default content. It made perfect sense to me based on all the content I've purchased prior to Newsstand.

I started buying the physical magazine back at issue #2 but stopped when I moved to the states due to cost and availability. I had a huge shelf full of them.
Now with the awesome iPad version availability is no concern, price is very reasonable, and as an added bonus I can take countless issues with me wherever I go.

When Borders closed in Augusta GA I couldn't find Total Guitar anymore. I Google searched it and found out about TotalGuitar. Now I have several issues right in my cell phone and i get them as soon as they come out, not a month behind like when I was buying the paper magazine. I'm 100% satisfied.

you idiots you're downloading TotalGuitar ! not the issues! all of the magazines on TotalGuitar store are set up just like this, jeez people grow a brain! so far TotalGuitar functions properly for me. you download TotalGuitar so that you can buy subscriptions or issues, this is kind of like a folder on your ipad or iphone to put the issues in.
AND THEY GIVE PRICES IN THE PRODUCT DESCRIPTION!
maybe instead of mindlessly clicking download you should read about what you're getting first so you don't come on here and make a bad review of a perfectly good product and make yourself look like a total idiot in front of God and everyone else on the internet.
