Reviews

Introduction

Our wonderful in-house editor recently mentioned to me that she is considering taking up learning the ukulele, so I thought what better music app to review than this awesome toolkit for iPhone and iPad which provides all kinds of handy tools to get you started!

This app definitely seems to offer everything you’ll need to expedite the learning process in the early stages. This includes everything from chord diagrams and progressions to a tuner, metronome, and a collection of more than a hundred scales from around the world.

You should find more than enough here to play all kinds of styles ranging from straight up blues and rock to Hawaiian and Japanese styles, so I would definitely recommend checking it out so that you can crank out some songs in very little time!

When it comes time to start putting together some of your own chord progressions you’ll be pleased to know that this app includes the Cycle of Fifths for you to easily determine which chords will go well with each other.

What’s more, all you lefties out there can stop fretting - until you get your hands on the fretboard, that is - because Ukulele Toolkit also provides full support for left-handed players.
