Pros and cons of D'Tools app for iPhone and iPad

D'Tools app good for

Amazing program does everything perfectly. Loved the modes in scales. I would pay money for this
Great tuner among other things. Definetely better than the Gibson L+M Guitar App.
This app is so killer handy! The scale chart is perfect! Chromatic tuner and metronome comes in handy too wish I down loaded this ages ago!
iPod touchで使用してると、Wi-Fiに繋がっていないと起動しない。
Thank you for update to iOS 7 and iPhone 5 compatibility! Now I can use this great app! With greetings from Russia! *****

Some bad moments

the audio is only working with the scales,why do you lie to us!!!
nice clean design but keeps crashing whenever i try to access the chord finder.
The app was great until the latest update. Crashes. Warning: Dont update just yet. Please fix this issue as soon as possible.
Do not buy this if you have an iPad. The tiny cramped interface is very frustrating.
Previous version was amazing, everything working, better graphics. Its a nonsense the restyling. Chord finder crashes! You cant scroll between chord by swipe the screen. Please correct the bug, and let us decide between interfaces. The new white one is good for computer people not for a guitarist.
This thing has tons of great features, but the Tuning setting isnt available for the chord dictionary. I want to be able to look up how to play chords in any tuning not just standard. The setting is available for the scales and the chord finder though. Will be much better when you can change the tuning on every mode.
