Everything I ever wanted

Simple easy free 4 track on my iPhone to layer guitar and record songs quickly and easily wha a god send! Thank you! I’m getting lots of latency though , which breaks my heart. Especially with the 3rd track. Tried wired headphones with usb adapter as well as Bluetooth speaker (on low) on iPhone 16e. Any ideas?

Can’t use it (yet)

I was trying to record but a notification popped up to connect headphones. I have an iPhone 15 pro so I don’t have wired headphones. Only Bluetooth. When pressing record, no sound is being recorded. Could be just a simple limitation which makes sense but sucks I can’t test this out. Would he great to create quick drafts.

Hello! You can use bluetooth headphone/airbuds. The recording won’t work as you need headphone/airbuds to records to prevent audio feedbacks.

Will be fantastic with some fixes & updates

Top marks for layout & concept. Love that you can assign images to sessions & mixes. Exact features/effects I want in this particular tool.


On my device (base model ipad, os26) Importing a stereo wav file apparently results in a mono sum with one channel delayed about a quarter second - the same delay I get when recording overdubs. Can't tell if there's a delay when not dubbing over an imported file.

hitting rewind while playing results in the play head returning to start and scrolling but no audio.

A setting to use audio interface inputs rather than the onboard mic would be useful.

Don't know how useful the reverb is past 10-15% mix (given the long tail). That might be true to how a physical plate reverb functions (i don't know) but maybe truncate the slider values to between 0 & 30% or so?

Like the "one knob" execution of the EQ/filter, but maybe make those and the volume sliders vertical?

The interface is a bit sluggish in general with sliders lagging visually (and fx effects lagging audibly) and button presses appearing to trigger on "mouse up".

Hope there are at least a couple revisions, because this shows real promise in a severely underserved "market".

Thanks so much for the detailed feedback — really appreciate it. This version wasn’t actually meant to be installable on iPad yet, since it’s not optimized for iPadOS at all, but somehow a few people were still able to download it. That explains the sluggish UI, slider lag, rewind issues, and also the mono export + delayed channel — all of that lines up with the current build not officially supporting iPad. That said, I’m already working on an update that brings proper iPad support, layout tweaks, and overall performance improvements. That update is planned for January, and it should make the experience much smoother. Also — I added your suggestions to my todo list. Super helpful. Thanks again for taking the time to write this — feedback like yours really helps me shape the next versions. If you have any other notes or questions, feel free to reach out anytime at hello@4track.app

not intuitive, no tutorial

i would love for this to work for me. can’t even figure out how to cut a track. surprised there’s no instructions anywhere for it. i guess it’s brand new. hope y’all keep trucking on it.

Response from developer

Hi! Just tap a region to select it — that will display the region options in the track header (on the right side) - cut, duplicate, delete, reverse. Move the playhead to where you want the split, hit Cut, and the region will be divided. For tutorials, there’s a Help Center button inside the app’s Settings. The app is still new, and I’m working on improving the help center. Hope that helps!

GAME CHANGER

Incredible app! Sleek & intuitive interface. Fast, functional, & seriously useful for nailing down ideas on the go. Screw lugging around a laptop, using Voice Memos or clumsy apps like it (or worse "remembering the idea later"). Total game changer for songwriting, demos, etc. If you make music, just get it.
