can’t confirm bpm/key changes in iOS 27.

Yo, there is a bug in iOS 27. Cannot manually edit either the BPM or the number of a certain loop - the “accept” check mark button disappears under the numeric keypad, so you can technically enter the values, but definitely cannot confirm any changes.

My device is 13mini.

We do really needs a fix!!!
Thanks in advance.

Lack of AUv3 hinders potential

Audiobus is the only way to record into it unless you use an audio interface, but that is subscription based. AUv3 would make this more useful. Packs are still being sold, so an update is needed.
