Ok but I’m over the IPad

It’s a decent app, once you learn the ins and outs I’m pretty sure you can do almost everything you need to do, but tbh…my IPad days are getting further and further away in my rear view mirror. I love my time making music and everything else on the IPad , but it seems like every app is becoming subscription based now. I’m essentially just exclusively making music on my M3 Max MacBook Pro and won’t be buying anymore IPads in the future. I don’t want to spend almost $2000 on an IPad and end end having to pay a subscription for all the apps on it..that’s just crazy. I would gladly buy this app outright, I even subscribed for a whole year but decided not to renew. I’d buy in app purchases if that were a thing to support further development but I’m not paying to rent it for another year

Tried reviewing this,Apple keep ‘losing’ whatI send.

Hmmm. The latest update features a classic reverb, drag track repositioning and user folders. I’d hoped for more, such as Rhythm Guitar and/or Lead Guitar Session Instruments. No other IOS DAW comes close to Logic, whatever the fan boys say. But progress is not in the express lane. Considering this is still a subs only app, features should be arriving more frequently. I’d also love to have an option to buy outright, and perhaps a second option to buy in conjunction with Logic for Mac. Is anyone at Apple listening?

Bluetooth broken since iPadOS 18 update

Please fix so I can use this app on the train again. Currently unusable. Was working fine until I upgraded to iPadOS 18. AirPods Pro v1 user.

NEEDS A BUY THE FULL VERSION OPTION NOT A SUBSCRIPTION!!

PLEASE FIX THE WIRELESS AUDIO DEVICE INPUT!!!

It has been more than a month now since Logic stopped recognising any wireless headsets within the software, so the audio comes out only from the iPad’s speakers. I believe it’s something to do with the new IOS 18 update.
I am surprised how there aren’t any comments here about the issue, since the online forums and Reddit have long threads with people talking about this.

It feels like a very slow response and action from Apple and it certainly leaves you questioning if it’s worth paying the subscription, since you can’t use the software properly. And while at, please make it easier to add third-party VST plugins from desktop to the iPad version.

Better than the rest!

No other IOS DAW comes close to Logic, whatever the fan boys say. The recent updates (mainly for those with M series iPads) adds features such as ‘smart’ session players. The instruments are very good, but need user input to stop them sounding artificial. I am keen to hear more, such as a Session Lead Electic Guitar and Rhythm guitar strummer. Also keen to have an option to buy outright, and perhaps a second option to buy in conjunction with Logic for Mac.

Another F’n subscription!!!

I don’t care what this app can do.

Enough with the subscriptions. I have a new iPad and I already own the desktop version. Have I not paid enough already???? I’d be fine paying a reasonable one time price but subscribe? no no no - Delete.

Perfectly fine other than being fundamentally worthless

This app is not a service. If you would like people to pay a service fee, provide a service, perhaps a monthly drop of free sounds, whatever. Make paid updates. Don’t do this. Garbage.

GarageBand On Drugs

This is literally GB, but harder to use, Subscription based, less Guitar and Bass instruments, and too much downloading for large amount of GB

Subscription kills the fun

Since I have Logic on desktop, it made sense to run it on my iPad as well, and overall it’s been a good app for my music making. It’s not perfect - having to use the inspector to dial in fades rather than handles on audio clips for example - is a UX cludge, but generally it’s been fun to use.

But, subscriptions. For the last two months I haven’t used it, due to work/health/life stuff taking up my free time, but I’m still being billed. So I’ve been charged a tenner to rent something I haven’t actually used.

So today I’m cancelling my subscription and deleting the app, since I don’t know when I’ll next use it. Could be next week, next month, but I don’t want more money coming out of my bank account for something I may or may not use that month. Yes I can cancel, then resubscribe, but that’s just messy. I’d rather pay a one-off cost, like all my other music apps, so I know how much I have, and will, pay.

Come on Apple, give us a one-off purchase option.
