  • Works on iPad

    For anybody that was misled by NAPSACK's review, iPhone apps can be loaded on your iPad. I have this app on both of my iPads, it is definitely a keeper.
  • Amazing!

    Eno has been trying to do generative music for 30 years. This app is the realization of his vision. I listen to it through the stereo while doing random things during my day. The sound and parts are tremendous. It's as Eno intended it. Thanks, Brian!
  • Great (but)

    I really love this app. It's a totally logical extension of Brian Eno's ambient music theories and methodologies for the 21st century.

    In addition, I'm a lifelong insomniac and since I've been listening to this in bed, I've been falling asleep considerably faster than usual. (FWIW, I slept restlessly with it playing all night. The sleep timer came in handy.)

    My one significant complaint though: I read about Trope in the iPhone edition of the music mag The Wire. However, when I try to open the magazine (in Newsstand) while Trope is playing in the background, the mag shuts down the instant after it opens. Trope is the only app that causes the mag to do this. If I could read The Wire and listen to Trope as I go to sleep, I'd be REALLY happy.

  • Love it, but some problems with iOS6

    This is one of my favorite apps. However, I am having some trouble with this as well as Air and Bloom and how they work in iOS6 on my iPod Touch. The sleep timer, which I have never had a problem with, doesn't work correctly, and the app will stay on. Hopefully this bug can be squashed when the developers update it. This is such a wonderful app, and the sleep timer is necessary for me.

  • Wish it was available for iPad too...

    I love this app. There is a multitasking option, so the review that states the app won't "freeze" when closed is inaccurate.

    I just wish this app was available for iPad as well.
  • Unbelievable.

    Serenity, makes you feel like you are floating in deep space, past the planets and moons, the stars...Beautiful. You do not want to miss this. Perfect for meditation or insomnia.
  • Well

    Well it's okay I guess I kind of expected more out of a Brian Eno app-definitely needs more options like copy paste music file, there's no way to save anything you create also the sounds are all pretty similar, it's alright to sleep to but really needs a lot more options and some moods that are actually different.

  • I like Bloom slightly more

    Cool sustained sounds. Still trying to figure it out. I like Bloom's more piano-like soundscapes more
  • Very nice

    I am really discovering some nice results. Can we look forward to streaming to an airport express? The ability to listen on the home stereo and still have my phone close by would be Devine. Thank you.
  • Please read app makers

    I love the concept but trope needs more sensitivity to the touches we make. You can hardly hear the sounds when you touch the screen hard. This results in basically only the background being heard. Please boost the volume of our touches and also add more variety of sounds, thanks.
