### 3/5 — I’m sure it’s great but

*2026-06-21, version 9.0.0*

I really only wanted to play an arpeggio chord progression to play on and either the UI is bad and I cannot find it, or this simple functionality doesn’t exist. The closest thing is the chord looper but those four “modes” are terrible.

### 1/5 — Don’t rate it

*2026-05-24, version 8.9.2*

Not great

### 1/5 — Songs

*2026-04-28, version 8.9.0*

I would love to use the app but it has no songs that I like, I would love to play Christian music but I can’t find any plus there is no search bar so idk if it even exists.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2026-04-03, version 8.7.0*

Worked fine. Removed bass. Sounded ok. Tried to save track. This app crashed every time!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t accept my download

*2026-03-29, version 8.7.0*

I saw that it only accepts files OK it doesn’t accept my screen recording. That’s fine little inconvenient but OK and then I go to my downloads because I saved it to my files there and then I see that it doesn’t accept it and there’s only one MP3 file that it accepts and just so that I could see I click on it and the app instantly crashes

### 2/5 — Key and Bgm

*2026-03-26, version 8.7.0*

I used to use this app before and it was very simple it used to tell you what the original bgm and key of the song is and will allow to change it according to you I have even purchased premium but still confused about that. Please help me with that if I upload a song of mine how do I know what’s the bgm and key? 
Thank you

### 1/5 — Can not search nothing up

*2026-03-06, version 8.7.0*

You can not search your own music do better

### 1/5 — It’s not working!!

*2026-02-27*

I purchased premium plus so I can use stem separation and since I purchased the stem section it’s showing error or your offline!!. What is this Developers?? i want this option to work please solve this!! I really need this and so only I purchased!!

**Developer response:** Hi there - I apologise for the inconvenience. That issue was a temporary server issue from a 3rd party. It has been resolved since. Can you please try again?
Best,
Ziad.

### 3/5 — Export

*2026-01-23, version 8.6.2*

### 1/5 — Import

*2026-01-18, version 8.6.2*
