Fun , but …
I bought this app a long time ago, when the ipod was still a thing, lol, and then they did an “upgrade” which was cool, I even purchased some extras, but it would be great if I could take the ideas I made and transfer them into my logic daw and continue to build on them. I’d give it way more stars if I could do that.

It’s enough
Straight to the point, biggest issue is crashing with no autosave. So just be careful with large projects. Everything else is fine.
Bad Model
I loved Beatwave years ago, used it a bunch and purchased Pro version. Figured I would come back to it today and discovered they now do subscription and my previous purchase is worthless. No thanks;
I don’t support this anti-consumer model.

Ruined by Subscription Fees
This was an awesome easy to use music making app until the original developer sold it. Now there are subscription costs to unlock tools that were originally sold as one time upgrades. Still fun to use Beatwave for recording purposes in conjunction with acoustic instruments though.
Overall 4 stars because Beatwave is still fun and generally easy to use.

Genuinely One Of The Best Apps I’ve Ever Used
I’ll keep it short and sweet. This app is phenomenal and always has been from the very beginning. Although, since I’ve been using this app for the past 7 years straight almost every single day it hurts to feel this app will become abandoned. I know certain things can’t be recovered due to just lack of attention but this app is so good! The sound are very well pitched, it incredibly easy to pick up and learn on and make something within minutes, and it’s just all in all makes for a very, very unique music maker. The problem off top are… well I’m not saying these are easy fixes but here they are-
-App Randomly Shutting Down
-Random Sound Bursts When Interrupted With Phone Calls/Hanging Up/Or In The Middle of Usage
-Pressing “Stop Recording” Causes App To Freeze
-Pressing Project Occasionally Freezes App
-Having App On Loop For Too Long Will Cause It To Glitch Out And Close Randomly
-Attempting To Copy & Past Square On Grid Frequently Glitches Forcing App To Close
And honestly that’s pretty much it. Not too much just mainly the app closing randomly. All I’m saying is the songs I’ve made on this app are timeless, sound so good and came out so well I couldn’t believe I could make those songs. Tbh y’all could go even further with app and add little by little and I’ll still support 100%. The songs I’ve made on here are so nostalgic to me & the noises, this app disappearing would honestly be so sad to see. It’s been 2 years since the last update and I’ve still been able to produce high quality music from this thing! Please keep it going!
