It’s good but lots of glitch
It was good for a few days and then all of a sudden it was just really glitchy. other than that it’s really good and it’s really easy to make music. so I gave it 4 stars
Good enough for a few minutes…
Good enough - to play for free for a few minutes. Terrible - as a ridiculously expensive paid subscription….Especially when apps like Grarage Band is free for IPhone users and it allows your own recording and so much more... Get rid of the subscription model and be reasonable w/ your pricing and you MAY?? be up to something.

Why?
I had bought all the music packs years ago and I went to install the app again only to find out I need to pay a subscription to get the packs that I had already purchased back. 😑

Beatwave blew totally mine mind!
Deleted my daughter’s work
I’ve never had a problem on iPhone. I gave my iPad to my daughter and she created this amazing song. I wasn’t present but she realized her music was gone. I don’t know if the software is to blame or human error but I’m shocked her music wasn’t retained. I’ve never had an issue with this app before. It caused a ferocious argument. Now my whole family is mad at me. The song was so good. Now it’s gone.

Subscription change Ruined this app.
I purchased the pro packs years ago and now I’ve reinstalled on a new iPad and can’t get those back without paying a monthly subscription. This is horrible. Such greed has ruined what was possibly my favourite app. Don’t waste your time. I am very upset by this change.
Now a subscription app, no support
I LOVED Beatwave 2, but this new version with the pay gate is really unfortunate. It's not worth $50+/yr. I guarantee sales and downloads have gone down since this started. And the support is nonexistent. I've emailed support in the last few months a few time, not one response. The question was simple: can I somehow share or convert project files from iPhone to iPad? I'd rather use the iPad version than iPhone. I want to work with my existing songs on a larger screen.

Wow, with every update it’s worse
You guys just erased my projects again with the update. Thanks. I was just about to record Beatwave into Cubasis and take it out of the novelty app category…and there’s nothing there but a 3card monte sucking me into a $50 dollar purchase. I get you guys wanna get paid but let people enjoy what you released for free without bamboozling them or erasing data.

Ripoff
I had purchased in-app the one time purchase pro version years ago. Reinstalled the app and it's nowhere to be found. Instead, now I can pay a subscription to regain access... The app looks extremely different with somehow less musical features than before (but somehow more social ones??)
Do yourself a favor and get a real music making app. They're other great options with begginer friendly user experiences.

Been a loyal fan for 7 years
I have been using BeatWave since I was in middle school to create tracks and play around with music, and it’s now been 7 years since then. The app has always had a few glitch errors and crashes a couple times, so if you don’t exit and re-open to save your music every few minutes you run the risk of losing progress. But it has been super beginner friendly. I wish it was still updated regularly to add features like 3/4 tempo and pitch shifting to every instrument but I am still a loyal fan and continue to use the app to make everything from club bangers to ambient dreamscapes.
