Ultimate guitar application

Can anyone please help?
I frequently use the application ultimate guitar to find out guitar chords and lyrics which voice-over reads out excellently.
unfortunately, in the last week with a new update it refuses to read out any lyrics or chords as it has done before.

I would greatly appreciate any help on this matter.

I also noticed with the recent update that ultimate guitar is no longer accessible. I also frequently used this app to find guitar chords to songs. I'm wondering if there's a way to go back to a previous version?

Hey guys,
This is a good time to go back and make the developer aware of the damage they have done. Tel them you have been a loyal customer and now you cannot be anymore.

Good luck!

Thank you Brigitte and Victor.
It is good to know I am not the only one experiencing these problems with the ultimate guitar application.
I will get on to the developer about this
Many thanks

So I took the plunge and bought this app as there had been no recent comments on whether accessibility was improved and initially, everything seems accessible. My question is, how do you go about reading the actual tabs? Voiceover speaks gibberish with all the e's dashes, c's, etc. I've always played by ear and am interested in reading tabs, but this has proven harder than first thought with either Jaws on a PC or an app such as this. I have to believe others have gotten this app to work for them by reading earlier comments or tabs in general. Any feedback to this app or an alternative would be appreciated.

I haven't personally used this app; however, if you have not synchronized your phone to iTunes since the last update, perhaps if you deleted the current app on your phone and then do a sync, it should add the older app version back onto your phone.

What I would do first, before anything else is to locate the iTunes folder inside the music folder of your computer. Open up iTunes folder, open media, open moble apps, and then locate the guitar app. Copy the app and put it into a safe place outside of iTunes. This is assuming that you haven't synchronized.

Note: Do not delete it from the Moble Apps folder.

Then try the above suggestion of deleting from the iDevice and then synchronizing to the iTunes app on the computer. If I am correct, this should restore the older version.
