Wont record, wont delete
Response from developer
Hi Lee, this sounds very odd. We haven’t heard of a user ever having that problem before. Could you please mail me directly at thomas@tape.it? I’d love to figure out what’s going on there. We can jump on a call as well. This sounds so majorly off and really shouldn’t be the case.
On the way to a very good app

Looping is already possible. There‘s a button for the playback mode in both the miniplayer and the full player which lets you toggle between “play one recording and stop”, “loop one recording”, “play the whole list in order”, “play the whole list in shuffle”. I hear you on the discard feature. That came up a few times recently, and I promise we’ll add it in one of the very next updates.
Fantastic App and Great Support
I had some difficulty porting some files over when recently upgrading my phone so reached out to their support who where just brilliant - solved my problem the same day and were so supportive.
Can’t recommend this app enough if you’re a musician wanting some way of recording and cataloging your music it’s an absolute no brainer - plus they regularly update functionality based on customer feedback.

Thank you Loz for this wonderful review. Really glad you like Tape It and that we could help resolve the porting problems.

(1) an ability while recording to quickly delete the voice memo rather than saving; as someone who often does multiple takes of my voice memos, it's frustrating to have to go though after I've recorded 15-20 takes and delete all but one of them
(2) an ability to play voice memos on loop-- this is critical. I can export them of course, but as someone who often writes in layers, it would be *much* better to be able to loop in-app
Overpriced
Response from developer
Pricing is always tricky. Tape It has a really strong free plan that comes with tons of features and free cloud storage. But you’re right, some features require the Pro version and the Pro version is not cheap. At the end of the day, developing an app like Tape It takes a ton of time and effort. We don’t show ads or sell your data - you’re our customer, and our pricing reflects that.
collaboration not working
when i press invite others to collaborate and then on share mixtape link nothing happens
i reinstalled the app but still nothing
PLEASE FIX IT! this app would be perfect
i have an iPhone 13 with iOS version 17.1.2
Response from developer
I believe we‘re already in email contact about it. The issue seems to be that mixtapes cannot be shared before they are synced to the cloud, but Tape It doesn’t yet inform you that that’s the problem. We’ll make that clearer in the next update so it doesn’t just silently fail in that edge case.
It’s great, but…
Response from developer
Interesting use case. We support custom cover art for mixtapes, but not for individual recordings. I’d love to learn a bit more about your use case: do you want the cover artwork always assigned, or only while sharing? Also, which messenger do you use for sharing, and do you have examples of other files you can share there that are displayed with cover artwork? It would be fantastic if you could follow up with an email to me at thomas@tape.it so we can discuss this more. Update: one more idea. Tape It has shared mixtapes which you can use for sharing songs with your bands. They can be quite nice because recordings don’t get lost between all your text messages that way. Might be worth giving them a try and see if it feels right.
Second Time Lucky
Can’t get past sign in page
Response from developer
We were affected by a server problem this Tuesday that prevented new sign ups. Existing users were not affected as Tape It is an offline-first app, and all existing data was always safe (in addition to being directly on your phone it is also replicated across multiple data centers). Everything is back in order again. I hope you give it another go :).
Great but V Annoying Pop Ups
Response from developer
Yeah that is one weird bug, so sorry you ran into this. We‘re already on it!! *Update*: that bug is solved :).
