Our verdict
TrueFire for depth and known pricing; Yousician for interactive, app-led practice.
TrueFire: $19/mo, $119.88/yr, 14-day trial, 85,000+ lessons for beginner to advanced guitar. Yousician: 7-day Premium+ trial, 10,000+ lessons/songs, microphone feedback across five instruments - but no USD price is published on its public pages, and its 14-day refund requires not having accessed the paid service. Editorial recommendation based on features/terms only - not hands-on testing.
