Reviews

Was good
crazy894509

It was good until I updated to iOS 13 on my iPhone 7 Plus the app freezes and does all kinds of weird things. The sounds are constantly delayed


The record option is on the keyboard
ExcaliburKaizuhan17

I couldn’t record anything... I could only play with the keyboards, that’s it.


Terrible
hoffenheim7363646373

Horribly unintuitive and painful user interface. Whoever designed this clearly doesn’t have any idea what the UI for a music recording software should be like. Waste of time. Extremely frustrating to try to understand how it works. Pretty sure this was made by some 14 year old kid who doesn’t know what he’s doing


Cant get it to go off of a hard rock sound
YoMama2019

So it sounds like a piano but heavy metal its classical themed so yeh


App is behaving weirdly
Cyrus68b

This guy hasn’t updated the app for a year. It’s behaving very weirdly on iOS 13. This app is the only reason I’m not upgrading to new iOS. I invested a lot of time on it and have a lot of projects. This is disappointing for an expansive app like this.


The App is great. Till it crashes and glitches.
JonGJr.

You’re able to airdrop tracks, edit waveforms, and record etc. But when your app crashes unexpectedly or your screen looks like it’s split in two and looks glitchy, you lose everything. Should be fixed or an update should ne made in order to fix this colossal problem.


I am confused
