### 3/5 — Not what I was waiting for

*2025-09-04*

The app has a single function, and if it works well - that's okey. But it didn't: moving the slider works too fast, you can't choose the timestamp precisely, moving the trimming positions (bottom) breaks all the tracking done with the slider (top). Was hoping this app would solve the problem with cutting audio files on iOS.

### 4/5 — Pretty handy

*2025-01-12*

I can’t tell if the app is adjusting the audio quality settings. I’d like to think not but it changed my file size more than I would have expected based on what I trimmed.

Feature suggestion: add the ability to do fades in and out by using the top “handle” on the clip slider.

### 3/5 — Needs instructions

*2024-10-29*

Dev should add a popup that indicates the file edit is complete. I was getting frustrated because the app appeared to be crashing, but it just quits when done.

### 3/5 — wavで書き出せるともっと良い。

*2024-07-08*

.wavで書き出せるともっと良くなると思います。

### 2/5 — Audio doesn’t align with trim markers

*2024-04-25*

The app itself is simple and easy; however, once you go to “trim”, the result is not the same as what you’ve selected- I’ve had to re-do the same file 5 times because it’s either too much silence at the beginning or the first few words are cut off. Super frustrating.

### 3/5 — not a great ui/ux

*2024-01-30*

just bought this based on positive reviews and am editing an aac file but the waveform seems very inaccurate and compressed and doesn’t line up with what i’m hearing. also the trim and play functions are very frustrating and will jump around and reset in unexpected ways. it works and the interface seems familiar but not as intuitive as it should be

edit: actually it doesn’t work properly, it plays most of the file and then stops before the file ends abruptly so there is a time mismatch or something going on. would also be nice to have function to snap the trim to the current play line

### 1/5 — Greift nicht auf die ITunes Mediathek zu

*2022-08-29*

Greift nicht auf die ITunes Mediathek zu, daher für mich nutzlos. Die Beschreibung der App ist viel zu dünn.

**Developer response:** If you change this to a 5 stars review I’ll add iTunes support in less than 7 days.
Let me know.

### 1/5 — Having some problems…

*2022-06-29*

1. Where is the tutorial?  It isn’t in the app. and the developer’s website does not have a users’ guide.

2. I cannot find a way to trim an audio recording that’s stored in any of my audio recording apps (including Apple’s native recording app).

3. This app seems to be incapable of adding any specific audio recording app (to allow export of a file into AudioTrimmer).

I understand that this app is less than 2mb but a help guide is, imo, essential and really well worth the few kb it would require.  Sadly, I could have used this app…🫥

**Developer response:** Hey there!

To use Audio Trimmer, simply pick any file in iCloud Drive, on your iPhone or any other cloud provider.

To be able to trim any file from another app, first save it to Files, then open it in Audio Trimmer. It’s that simple!

### 4/5 — Great simple app

*2022-05-09*

Please add the Dynamic Type feature to make it more usable for visually impaired people. The Trim button is so small even if there’s plenty of space.
Also, there is no option to choose compression quality, so some cut files are larger than their originals.
Otherwise the app just did what was expected. Recommended.
Thanks

### 1/5 — Nix funktioniert

*2022-04-19*

Ärgerlich!

**Developer response:** Hello!
Your problem has been fixed!

### 1/5 — Imported a mp3 it exported a m4a

*2025-07-15, version 1.0.18*

I just need to trim an mp3. Using this app will export a m4a file which is not what I need. It should explicitly say it will convert any mp3 to m4a in the description.

### 1/5 — Cannot trim Wav to Wav

*2025-04-25, version 1.0.18*

App trims wav files and renders m4a. No option that I could find to switch it so it will render wav files. I don’t want m4a.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy this app

*2024-01-01*

There are no instructions so before you make a decision try and figure out if it’s gonna work for you, but wait a minute, there’s no way to figure it out because there’s zero instructions.

### 1/5 — Audio Trimmer

*2023-12-15*

funktioniert bei mir nicht

### 1/5 — There is no App!

*2023-09-01*

Paid my money to Apple Store and all I got was an icon on my Homescreen/desktop.
When you click this icon it opens up an empty folder in Files and *drum roll* THERE IS NO APP!
I’ve contacted the developer, Rony Fadel, and received no response. Disappointed but not surprised, so I’ve passed it on to Apple to investigate.
P.S. I’m forced to give at least a one star rating in order to post this review - how can even 1 star be justified for an empty folder!

**Developer response:** Hey there, I must’ve missed your message.

The app is based on the Document Browser (like Pages or Keynote).

To use the editor, simply tap on an audio/video file in the browser.

### 1/5 — Data Collected !!

*2023-06-10*

Bye Bye

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht!

*2023-05-07*

Diese App funktioniert nicht. Weder schneidet sie, noch lässt sie sich intuitiv bedienen. Es gibt keine Hilfe, keine Anleitung und keine Erklärung. 

Das ist ärgerlich. Ich möchte mein Geld zurück!

### 1/5 — Audio Trimmer

*2022-12-20*

schaffe es als Ingenieur nicht einmal die mp3-Datei zu öffnen, geschweige denn sie zu editieren - intuitiv geht anders oder die app funktioniert schlicht nicht …

### 1/5 — Doesnt Work on Long Audios

*2022-11-08*

Title explains itself. The whole point i bought this was to trim down a long (20+ Mins) audio but i get an error message that it cant open the mp3 file. It can open other shorter files just fine. Disappointed.

**Developer response:** Stefanie, let’s fix this for you! Can you email us at support@fadel.io?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work!

*2022-10-28*

I downloaded this app and spent hours yesterday fine tuning some clips from a podcast I’m working on however when I open up the saved audio they have been cut in the wrong places - I always tested the trims both ends before clicking trim but then it seems to ‚jump’ the cut a few seconds each end - I Finally fussed out that each time I should trim with additional footage then go in and trim again and then again - to get it accurate I needed to trim 3 times. It would be a great app if it could trim where you originally position it!

**Developer response:** Dang! I’m sorry for the trouble.

Can you please email me directly? I’ll need to ask you for more info (it could be the media file)

### 5/5 — Good App

*2026-04-19*

Does what it says it’ll do without fail

### 5/5 — OMG Why is it so easy?!

*2026-03-11*

It used to be common to find apps for the iPhone that do one thing and do it well, but sometimes it seems like that's harder to find these days. Today I just needed to trim an audio file real quick, and I took a chance on this one based on its reddit thread from four years ago. App costs $2.99 now — small price to pay for the convenience! The only thing I might suggest is the ability to fade either or both sides where the audio is clipped. Even without that, this is what I needed in a bind. Thank you!!

### 5/5 — Easy and Efficient Edits; Great Support

*2024-11-01*

For over 2 years I’ve used this “easy to learn” app to edit audio clips. It has performed flawlessly for me until this week when the app experienced a slight hiccup. I reached out to the developer for a fix. An initial response was received within 15 minutes and the problem fully resolved a few short hours later. I appreciate great customer service and today I experienced it. The app is fairly priced and does what it promises.

### 5/5 — Literally does exactly what it needs to

*2023-11-17*

App is great. My laptop died so I had no idea how to edit my audio for things. This fixed that problem and it’s affordable. The way it works visually is kinda funky to me but I learned it pretty quickly! Thanks for making this.

### 5/5 — Awesome, works great

*2023-06-12*

I make music on my iPad and often incorporate field recordings and import them into music-making apps. Until now it was a pain to trim recordings to fit the tracks - I used to load them on my PC then use Sony Sound Forge to edit and trim them. But now with Audio Trimmer I can do everything directly on my iPad. Brilliant!

It's a very simple app but it's really easy to use and when you click the TRIM button it saves a new file, retaining the original. Definitely gonna recommend this app to all of my friends in the iOS music community - it's excellent, and very affordable 👍

### 5/5 — Long-Awaited, Elegantly-Executed

*2022-12-23, version 1.0.4*

Somehow, this 1.4 MB, virtually inconfigurable, single-use application manages to be one of the most powerful audio manipulation tools on iOS. Those who remember maintaining a GarageBand install *just because they occasionally needed to trim audio files* will celebrate. One of very few apps I’ve come across that I absolutely wouldn’t change at all but would pay much more for.

### 5/5 — Works simple

*2022-08-14*

It works simple, there are no extras and no options, just trimming.

As feedback I would add horizontal view, to edit/trim the sound files easier.

**Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for the tip, I’ll add that in a future version.

### 5/5 — All this dev’s apps are top notch

*2022-07-11*

It would be awesome to finally have something of this caliber but for a multi track editor/recorder.

I believe you can be the one to help podcasters who want to go full ipad only.

With a multi track editor/recorder.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback!
I’ll message you on Twitter to brainstorm about how to get this done!

### 5/5 — Just works.

*2022-05-29*

Handy tool which suits a specific purpose and does so well!

**Developer response:** Thank you!

### 5/5 — Great app by a great developer!

*2022-03-24*

Love how simple yet functional it is. Great work!
