Buy GuitarTapp with discount

If you are using the free trial version of GuitarTapp, you can now buy the full version with a discount! Besides distribution through the Nokia Ovi store, GuitarTapp is also available through a payment with PayPal. Because PayPal’s tranaction fees are (way) lower than Ovi’s, we are able to offer GuitarTapp for €2.49 (17% discount)

You can read more about this offer by clicking the ‘Buy with discount..’ option in GuitarTapp’s main menu. If you currently don’t have this menu item, it will be added automatically once you perform a band or song search.

Power Tab support in GuitarTapp

As you might have noticed, we’ve updated our back-end to support Power Tabs last week. GuitarTapp is the first and only mobile app that supports this! The Power Tabs are converted to plain tabs on our server, and then displayed on your mobile. All you have to do to open a power tab, is selecting one from a song’s Versions screen: if there are power tabs available for that particular song, an additional  ‘power tab’  section will appear!

GuitarTapp 1.3 available

About a week ago, we’ve released GuitarTapp version 1.3. Since we haven’t blogged about any version since 1.0, here’s what’s new..

New since version 1.0:

  • IntelliWrap: Intelligently detects and wraps tabs and chord-guided -lyrics to fit on your screen. This really is a major improvement, as it eliminates the need to scroll tabs horizontally!
  • Chords colorizing: detects chords in the tab and displays them in blue.
  • Transposing: Instantly change the key of the song by transposing a number of steps (frets) up or down. Extremely useful if a tab uses a CAPO, and you don’t have one nearby..
  • Adjustable font-size: You can now define what size the font the tab viewer should use, this is especially handy on some phones with smaller screen resolutions.
  • Improved Favorites (including local saving)
  • Improved History
  • Help
  • Improved support for small screens (different layouts used on some screens)
  • Lots of bugfixes!

If you are still working with an older version of GuitarTapp (you can check this by going to Options > About), you can update the software automatically by going to Options > Check for Updates. A notification will appear asking you if you wish to install the new version. By selecting Yes, you will be taken to our update website to download and install the new version.

What’s happening now?
We are currently working on functionality to display Power Tabs, and support for Guitar Pro tabs will possibly follow in the near future. Keep your eye on 845tools.com to stay informed!
