## What is Boptonic?

Boptonic turns your phone into a sound sampler and beat sequencer. Record anything you hear, shape the sounds, and build a loop in minutes. Export WAV, stems, M4A, Midi, compatible with Suno, Logic Pro, Ableton, FL Studio, Pro Tools, GarageBand, or wherever you work.

Record
Tap to start recording. Long press or toggle record on and off with a tap. Capture takes seconds to initiate. Recording does not require a project, record first, then assign to your active project or a new project.

Reach the record screen instantly using the lock screen widget and start recording from a locked phone. Or say "record in Boptonic" to Siri and the record screen open and triggers recording hands-free. On iPhone 15 Pro or later, you can set the Action Button to go straight to record.

Sound library

The Sound Library is where you gather sounds for your beats.　Bundled sounds you can preview and add, also save favorite sounds to reuse across projects, or import sounds from Files or by opening audio from another app via Share.

Shape

Each sound has its own pitch, reverb, delay, EQ, trim, gate, dynamics, and drive controls. Duplicate a sound to create a separate processed version of the same recording. Changes are non-destructive, so the original stays intact.

Sequence

Place sounds on a step grid. Transient detection and one-tap gets each sound on the beat without manual adjustment. Adjust tempo, volume, and panning per lane. A 6-sound, 8-bar loop takes a couple of minutes from capture to playback.

Export

Share as MP3 directly from the app. Studio subscribers get a complete export package with WAV files, individual stems, and MIDI, ready to open in Logic Pro, Ableton, FL Studio, or any other DAW.

Free Draft Version: 3 sounds per project, 8 bars, core effects set
Studio: No feature limits, full effects set, DAW export package with WAV, stems, and MIDI

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-05-07

Introducing the Sound Library, where you gather sounds for your beats. Bundled one-shots you can preview and add in a tap, and **keepers** (favorites you reuse across projects) and **imports** from the Files app or by opening audio from another app via Share. Everything lands in your project as a normal sound so effects and sequencing work the same.

### 1.0 — 2026-04-29

No release notes.
