  • Perfect!

    Ignore the reviews below. I took a chance on this app after reading the reviews and it's perfect! To add songs simply select "add song" and point the program at your itunes directory. Plays both MP3's and songs purchased on the iTunes store (M4a). What I did notice is that the "add song" icon seems unusable (goes grey) after adding your first batch. Stays grey unless you clear your songs queued. It's likely user error. A simple work-around to this is to simply drop and drag songs you want to add from iTunes to the app window. Other than that this app seems to do exactly what I want (slows songs down while keeping pitch, and changes pitch while keeping tempo). 5 stars!

    ❤️ thanks for the review! I’m not sure why the import song button greys out for you - I don’t disable it anywhere in the code. It might just be a visual issue and still be clickable
  • App

    Not the app letting me play the songs from file that was put in my phone keeps saying file failed

    Could you use the ‘contact developer’ feature in the app? You’ll find it by pressing the question mark in the top right corner. I’d love to help you get it working ☺️
  • Garbage

    Your app is total garbage. I tried it and it wouldn’t even let me import songs from Apple Music. You are a bunch of money hogs!
  • Doesn’t work

    I am getting “playback error” nearly every time I try to play a song from my Apple Music library. Would love to talk with the developer about how to fix this.

    Were you the one who emailed? Hopefully it’s all working now ☺️

    This app does work! I got your email, where you attached a screenshot of the review prompt that automatically comes up captioned ‘App doesn’t work’. I didn’t hear back from you so I assumed you managed to close the review prompt and get back into the app as normal If you do have a moment could you update your review - it really helps out! 😄
  • Perfection for vocal practice!

    As a professional vocal coach, I am often in need of the ability to change the key of a song on-the-fly to suit a student’s vocal type. For complicated, fast melodies (think: vocal riffs/runs), it can help to slow down a section of a song and study exactly what notes are being sung.

    That is where Pocket Jam comes in. I can simply load an MP3, change the key, and slow down the tempo with the app. It even allows me to loop the part of the song to practice, and export the song in the key and with the tempo that I need. It even includes a practice mode that will slowly increase the loop speed to challenge you to improve.

    Best of all, Pocket Jam works incredibly fast. I have used many key-changing apps on the App Store, and this is by FAR the best app out there for this purpose. It really is no-nonsense, and does exactly what it says on the tin.

    Additionally, the developer was extremely responsive to my questions when I addressed him directly regarding ways the app the could improve.

    If key-changing or tempo-changing is what you need, just buy this app. It is well worth it.

    The only caveat with the app is that it does not support Apple Music or any other streaming service. But, of course, this makes full sense as those tracks are typically copywritten. That said, it is easy enough to make an MP3 of a track and load it into Pocket Jam.

  • Can’t Export or Share Files (songs)

    Is there a way to export or share a file that I made changes?.

    Developer Response

    The app has been updated to add this feature. Hope you like it 😊
  • Trouble adding music

    I added songs to iTune playlist and tried to add them to Pocket Jam but PJ didn’t sync with iTune so it was showing nothing new on the PJ playlist.

    There is no place to contact or get help so whole thing is big waste of time.

    Sorry to hear it’s not worked first time round. You can reach me at hello@jacobdoescode.com , and I can help guide you through it
  • Waste of money (0 stars)

    Overpriced app does not work with Apple Music, app creator fails to address issue

    Developer Response

    Sorry to hear it’s not working for you. Apple Music (and Spotify) only give developers very limited access to the music, and it is not possible to change the pitch of songs downloaded from these services. I know this isn’t the answer you’d want to hear, and it’s not the one I want to give either, but I hope you can understand.
