Learn That Song (REMIX Edition) — Slow down music, change the key, and loop [previously iLift] Reviews

Love it

Fun to use. Even if You don't play music. You can speed and slow a song and just listen to how it would sound in different keys. All smiles, here.

Does Not Work with Apple Music

Really wish I’d read the reviews before purchasing!!!!!!!!

This app is perfect for learning songs. I use the slowdown feature constantly for figuring out the notes and pattern of complex guitar riffs, and I couldn’t be happier. One of the other awesome features I also just discovered was the key change option, which allows you to play a song in a different key so that you don’t have to re-tune!! That’s super useful when I want to switch from playing a drop D song to a drop B, especially if I don’t want to swap strings! As an added bonus, I think this app is gorgeous, so I don’t mind looking at it for hours on end. Apps don’t have to be shiny and pretty for me to give them 5 stars, but having a simple and elegant interface makes the user experience that much better, and shows that the app developer cares to polish their work. I’ve used all the features in this app and they work incredibly well, I can’t thank this app dev enough!

Bring Back iLift

Rain Gilly

I am still on iOS 10.2 and refuse to update so that I can still use iLift (the previous and far superior version of this app). I don't even get cell service anymore because of how outdated my cell service is, but cell service<iLift. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring iLift back, or at least integrate the good parts of it into this app (better UI, better sound quality). This "learn that song" app sounds like taint and is really buggy, doesn't feel nearly as put together as iLift. At the very least, make iLift 64 bit so I can update my OS. You guys are awesome app developers, I know you have it in you. - Rain

Deception through omission

its ok to be honest

I like many others purchased app in the belief that it worked across all formats as the creator implied . Still after many people complained about the incompatibility issue with Apple Music there is nothing in the description warning potential buyers. Even if you have downloaded the song from Apple Music and it’s on your device it WILL NOT WORK with app.Feedback is unsendiable so they get your money with no recourse. 1 star For the omission and deception. . That said if you use this app for learning a specific song you have the option of purchasing the song from iTunes for a buck or so then it will work just fine .

Does not work with Apple Music

seamus the wise

Nowhere in the description does it say that the app does not work with Apple Music. They could have easily made this explicit. In fact, the description suggests quite the opposite as it says “works with any file in the music app” No, it does not.

Doesn’t work

What good is the app if it can’t work with the songs you have on Apple Music? Won’t work on all 352 songs that I have on my phone and can’t find where to get a refund.

Great functionality hurt by file selection.

It does a great job with its core functionality. I took off 1 star because it lacks the ability to browse cloud services. The Loopman app can do this, so it’s not some kind of platform restriction. You have to basically export out of the cloud service to get songs in.

Another paid rehash of iLift, Interface barely usable

Pearldrummer992

I used iLift (from the same developer) for a couple years before buying this. It worked well, and had almost identical functionality to this. iLift has since stopped working as the dev hasn’t updated it, so I begrudgingly bought their new bundle that includes this one. Not only is it a rehash of the same app renamed to force another purchase, but the interface is slow and jumpy to the point that navigating the waveform is useless. Button presses take a few seconds to respond, which is painful in an app meant to provide fine control over music playback. Fix this or bring back iLift.

I completely agree with the devs, nothing in there description says anything about Apple Music, they must be the type of person who drives in the left lane on the highway going the speed limit - just a complete moron. This app is so versatile, it's a great feature where you can change the start and end points of your loop on the fly. After trying 4 other apps similar, 2 of which don't exist anymore (after OS11); this is the first one that still plays if you lock your phone, or still plays in the background if you activate a different app. Just as a note; I am unfamiliar at how Apple indexes searches in the app store or if you are even able to manipulate it -- I don't really use this for musician purposes, therefore wouldnt really search this app using any musician terms, I happen to find this app only by using Google and not in the app store with the term 'song loop'
