WARNING-Incredible app with a HUGE flaw – Music Memos Review

The reason to use this app over other higher rated ones is the automated drums and bass that matches your tempo. That is a huge innovation and I can’t believe Apple has not done more with it. However there is a huge flaw in the app, and that is with iCloud sync. DO NOT switch iCloud sync on. The app was working great for me until I went to settings and hit that switch. Suddenly the app kept freezing. So I disabled the sync. Then it loaded and all of my demos had disappeared. My heart rate went through the roof. I thought I had lost everything. Eventually I figured out that once you sync to iCloud, you cannot go back. You are stuck with iCloud. And it is horrendously slow. There may be a way to delete the app without deleting the data, and reinstall and leave the sync off, but don’t try any of that until you back up. I had to download software on my Mac that could locate files on my iPhone. Once I found the file (called Ideas.bundle) I saved to my Mac and all the demos were in that package. I spent hours figuring that out. But again, do not enable iCloud sync! Either email every demo to yourself, or use the file explorer software. Or both to be safe. Not the first time I’ve been burned by iCloud - I will never trust iCloud again.
