Great for language learning – Audipo - Audio Speed Changer - Review

I got this app to help with listening to audio files for a Chinese language class I’m taking. I wanted to be able to easily repeat certain sections and the built-in audio player on iOS is terrible for this. This app does everything I wanted and more. You can place as many bookmarks on an audio file as you want and quickly jump back and forth between them. It’s also very consistent in how it labels a time stamp, unlike the iOS player which sometimes shows you a positive number (e.g. you’re 1 minute into the file) and sometimes negative (e.g. you’re 10 minutes from the end). The timeline also just gets visibly longer for longer files, so if you’re listening to a 30 minute file and you have to go back 30 seconds, it is as easy to scrub to 30 seconds back as it would be for a 3 minute file. The only downside is that your audio files have to be in a playlist in the Music app, which turned out to be tricky for me as I had the files saved in the Files app, and neither Audiopo NOR the Apple Music app can interface with the Files app. So I needed to transfer the audio files to my Mac, then put them in Music/iTunes, then wait for the playlist to sync to my iPad. It was a bit of a pain. But worth it.
