1. 4/5Long-Time User...

   I have been using this app since early high school or so. So it's been about a good seven years or more. There's still not really an equivalent to creating easy video vocal arrangements online. Otherwise, I would have to use premiere or after effects, and I honestly cannot be bothered. Aside from small fixes that I would like to see in the app--perhaps and editing feature in case you mess up apart of the performance; this app has been having quite a few bugs lately. Not to mention, it feels like a ghost town when it comes to overall updates. I haven't been able to login for months, for no apparent reason ("service unavailable"). The song recommendations on the side, if you choose to record alongside audio, are all hits from almost ten years ago--"Uptown Funk" by Bruno Mars, "Hello" by Adele, a track by Pentatonix that came out that time, some Ed Sheeran song. LOL This would be tolerable if the app didn't have the audacity to request MONEY for simple things like longer recordings. I still want to use this app, since as mentioned earlier, there's really no app comparison; but there's some changes to be made.

2. 3/5Why the expensive subscription?

   I really like this app. It’s very useful for sketching song ideas. The real huge bummer is the fact that I can’t record over 1 minute without purchasing a regular subscription for roughly $50 a year. The price in itself isn’t a huge issue but the fact that the advanced features are only temporary sort of irks me a bit including not being able to save my files in the free version. I would have no problem paying a one time $50 price tag upfront for a full version of the app but it feels like a slap in the face when they want a yearly paycheck from people who want to use this. The app itself is wonderful. If you like making Instagram videos it’s great because they can only be one minute anyway. I would recommend this app to friends but the subscription is a little too much for the advanced version to be worth it. If you have access to a laptop or desktop just use iMovie. It’s a one time purchase and the possibilities are endless compared to the limited free version of this app.

3. 2/5Great app — except for the ridiculous subscription

   This is a fantastic app that allows people to be creative and collaborate in all sorts of ways, however this is an awful option for students and artists who just want to experiment. If you can afford shelling out $50 a year it’s great! However most students and musicians don’t have money for a looping app they just want to experiment with. You are better off investing your money in sound equipment and a DAW because you’d have those long term to record on rather than be stuck paying a subscription to a phone app... If this was like iReal Pro and only asked for a one time purchase it would be much more worth while. Even if it’s a steep purchase price, you’d have the tool on your phone to mess around with whenever you felt like getting creative. Sad to see reviews of people that paid the previous one time purchase which has apparently been voided since they changed the terms to a monthly subscription as well.... greed in action, making it harder than it has to be for musicians and artists to find their voice. I’d happily give this app 5 stars if the In-app purchases page was truthful at it really was a one time purchase of 7.99 for all the features.

4. 3/5Expensive and Lacks Key Features

   I’ve been using this app to create music with friends while social distancing. In terms of ease of transferring projects, it’s fairly straightforward and provides a decent platform for doing so. However, given the extremely steep monthly price, I would hope that this app had the following: Ability to work on multiple projects at once — once you start one project, you basically have to finish before opening a different one. There are workarounds, but to me this is such a dealbreaker with an expensive app. Ability to edit takes — I know the video element makes this a little tricky, but if I have a slight mistake I should be able to piece in a short audio clip to “voice over” and cross fade between the original take, without affecting the video. Tempo changes during the song — or the ability to temporarily pause the metronome if you are performing songs with pauses or tempo fluctuations Graphical eq — there are eq settings that can be modified, but graphical eq would be much more convenient to work with in an app setting. Desktop/android support — really need this one. I can’t collaborate with friends who don’t use iOS. I’m still getting used to this software, and I’m probably not aware of all the features it has to offer. However, I pay less for other production software that does way more for a fraction of the price; honestly this is just a rip off. Once quarantine ends, I will most likely not be renewing my subscription.

5. 4/5Expensive and Not easy

   The app cost arrangement has changed. There was a paid down load version, and free down load version. What I’ve paid for a year is a lot for an app, as a church musician. But, now what do I do with the choir members . . . Free TRIAL version now, then they’ll have to pay. And I will lose people because it won’t be worth the money for them, or they can’t afford it, especially if we don’t know if it’ll work for us yet. This is a developer who is now taking advantage of a situation where volunteer groups are just wanting to make music together during this COVID situation . . . until they can come together again. These aren’t professional musicians, they just want to gather a few moments in voice. Congratulations for ruining a decent thing. I don’t mind paying for fair price/service . . . But this is price gouging. Then, there are no directions. You just have to figure it out. We’re all ‘collaborators’ now . . . New jargon . . . With no hints how to proceed . . . Man. I have to use this for now, I’ve paid for it . . . I hope you fill your coffers to the brim . . . You know musicians have no money at this time. Have a good day.
