Ultimate Guitar: Chords & Tabs

Ultimate Guitar: Chords & Tabs helps players learn and play songs with a large searchable library of guitar, bass and ukulele chords, tabs and lyrics. Browse more than 800,000 arrangements and filter results by difficulty, tuning or rating to find versions suited to your skill level. Save favorites for offline practice and use built-in tools to edit tabs or compile personal song collections. The app also brings playable tones to many tracks through Tonebridge, supports left-handed mode and offers display options that suit practice, rehearsals and live performance preparation.

Key Features

In Ultimate Guitar: Chords & Tabs you can access a broad catalog of chords, tabs and lyrics across instruments, download tabs for offline use, and use Tonebridge Guitar Effects which recreates tones for thousands of popular songs. Personal tabs let you edit chords and lyrics and organise playlists of go-to songs, while accessibility options include adjustable font sizes, dark mode and a left-handed setting. Search and filter tools make it easier to find the right arrangement by difficulty, tuning or community rating.

Advantages

Ultimate Guitar: Chords & Tabs offers an interactive Tab Pro player (Pro feature) that plays songs note-by-note with synchronized lyrics and backing tracks for focused practice. The app includes a metronome and guitar tuner, autoscroll and display customization for rehearsal or live use, and tools to transpose or simplify chords to make learning more approachable.

Disadvantages

Many advanced practice features such as interactive tabs, backing tracks and autoscroll are part of the Pro subscription. Because much of the catalog is user-submitted, arrangement quality can vary and some tabs may need editing before use.
