### 3/5 — I can’t figure out how to get my sounds into the board

*2025-01-04*

I was trying to use this app as a sound board for a production I’m doing sound for but my files won’t allow me to click and add them in. I can’t add them through the music option either

### 4/5 — Programmable buttons

*2023-02-10*

Just what I was looking for to play my own sound effects. My only problem is working on iPad I don’t know how to transfer downloaded files to iTunes/music. Can the app retrieve files directly from the iPad or iCloud folders?

**Developer response:** Hi Tradersam, 

I'm glad this looks like a good solution for you,  but sorry you're having issues adding custom sounds. After receiving a similar feature request recently via my contact page, I've made a release which supports the Files app, which I hope solves your issue? Please take a look when you can and let me know your feedback!

### 2/5 — App kann nicht mehr auf installierte Music App zugreifen

*2022-04-08*

Ich nutze die App auf meinem alten IPad (ios9.3.5). Bisher immer ohne Probleme. Seit dem letzten Update bekomme ich die Meldung: Apple Music App muss installiert werden - App kann sich damit nicht verbinden! Apple Music App ist aber installiert!!! Bei jedem 5.-8. Versuch gelingt es manchmal ein Par Knöpfe mit samples zu belegen. Dann wieder der Warnhinweise und kein Weiterleiten zu meiner Library.
Wäre toll, wenn das wieder geändert der verbessert werden könnte…

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you had some issues. After your comment, I've made some fixes for iOS 9.x. The latest version (1.4.2) has all these fixes and some new features - I hope these fixes work for you, but please let me know if not!


Thanks for the feedback!

### 4/5 — Nach Update alle eigenen sample weg

*2021-12-17*

Leider sind nach dem großen Update alle eigenen Samples verschwunden. Nach dem letzten Update sind die Namen meiner eigenen Samples wieder da aber die Samples immer noch nicht. Das ist sehr schade und schafft Mühen lieben Gruß an die Entwickler’Innen…

### 3/5 — Good but not perfect

*2021-11-12*

Can you please update the app so it‘s working even when ringtone is muted? 
And rearranging the buttons would also be great. Thx

### 2/5 — Custom sounds no longer work

*2019-06-01*

Set used to open your music library, but does not work anymore on newer hardware/OS

**Developer response:** I know it's been a while, but perhaps you could try out the latest version. I think I've fixed all the issues, and would appreciate any feedback if not :)

### 2/5 — Customize option didn't work for me

*2018-01-01*

The "Set" button did nothing so this was completely useless for me. Interface looked nice though.

### 2/5 — iOS 10 not supported?

*2017-03-05*

Doesn't seem to play any sounds in iOS 10. But it's pretty!

### 2/5 — Good but...

*2016-01-28*

It's a very good app I just wish there was a feature to record and download the product. That would be a big improvement!

### 2/5 — 10 minute limit

*2015-10-31*

I needed to play loops on this but can't because the time limit for importing a sound from iTunes is 10 minutes. Other than this it might have been a great app.

### 1/5 — Crashes....

*2015-10-06*

This app crashes ever time I try to change one of the buttons and put a custom sfx on it. 

Ripped off of my $1.19

Thanks a lot.

### 4/5 — Really wish speaker was supported

*2015-08-25*

App works well via headphone jack but really wish speaker out out was supported for sound boarding. Pls enable :'( otherwise great.

### 1/5 — Poor, crashes

*2014-11-25*

When trying to add my own sounds into the soundboard from library, would crash every time. 
Only reason it's worth 69p and isn't free..yet it doesn't even work!

### 4/5 — Please fix

*2014-06-29*

### 1/5 — Not useful

*2023-06-22*

Can’t use custom sounds. Please add a modern way to add custom sounds :/ Response: I’m looking for a way to add custom sounds via the Files app or Photos app as the iTunes music doesn’t work for me. Thx

Second response: Don’t worry, I will.  I read all replies and will keep your app installed looking forward to Files implementation 😁

**Developer response:** Hi Diray, 

Thanks for your response! After receiving the same feature request recently via my contact page, I've made a release which supports the Files app. Please take a look when you can and let me know your feedback!

### 1/5 — No sounds?

*2023-04-26*

Just downloaded and it doesn’t have any sounds?

**Developer response:** I'm sorry to hear you're having issues with the app. Can you describe the issue in more detail? Do you not see any buttons on screen? If you reply via selwynleeke.com/contact, we can open a conversation where you could provide screenshots...

### 1/5 — Latest update has killed it. Such a shame

*2022-08-07*

The latest update has killed the app. The buttons are much bigger and you now have to scroll to get the the buttons you need. Hen you do this you accidentally set another button off. It is such a shame. Before the app was great but now it’s useless 😢😢

**Developer response:** Hi Ashleyknight, 

I'm sorry to hear the latest update has broken things for you. I took great care to make sure all used buttons were visible in all cases I could think of, but it seems there's at least one case I missed. 

Please could you get in touch to let me know what device you're on, and which OS you're running? You can send me mail at https://www.selwynleeke.com/contact

### 1/5 — Don’t buy

*2018-01-27*

It’s a ripoff

### 1/5 — Sounds don't work

*2017-07-29*

Sounds don't work- don't waste your money on this one

### 1/5 — Custom sounds don't work

*2017-06-15*

Selecting anything gives an error.

### 1/5 — WASTE OF MONEY

*2017-03-23*

This app crashes every time I attempt to use it. It's utterly worthless and a waste of money. DO NOT BUY THIS APP.

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2023-09-27*

This is an outstanding product. It was so easy to use. I see in some of the comments that people complain because it wasn’t easy to download sounds but he is fixed it and now it is easy as pie. I looked at a whole lot of different soundboards, and this was by far the best and the least expensive, congratulations to the maker.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your kind words! I'm so glad you like the app :D

### 5/5 — OMG - Excellent

*2017-12-24*

No ads - superb
Plays sounds - even in parallel
Extremely easy to use
Perfect for Roleplay and annoying persons around

Only way to further improve it: allow for additional panels (swiping to left and right)

### 5/5 — Excelent

*2014-12-10*

Ive used this for over a year now and everynight in the summer djing in kavos and it has been my fav app ever since!!!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2014-08-29, version 1.3.1*

Love it!!!!!

### 5/5 — Great for our show!!!

*2014-02-08*

As the co-host of The Matt and Pat Show, we were looking for a customizable soundboard, that ran on an iPad 1 running iOS 5. This app does exact that, and more! Built in sound fader, instant kill all sounds button, multiple sounds at once can play, each active sound button lights up and pressing an already active sound button instantly plays another instance of the assigned sound! Want to change a buttons sound is simple, hit Set, press the button, pick it from your synced music/playlist and it even supports custom button names! Super responsive on this iPad 1, to say I'm impressed, for 99 cents, is an UNDERSTATEMENT! This app is now going to be a key component of our weekly show! Do a show or podcast? You will want this! We were not paid to write this review but we will certainly mention it on our show! Thanks for an awesome iOS app!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2013-08-13*

Pros:
It does what it says and it does it well
The app is very smooth.  
Plays clips and songs soundboard style very well
Volume slider is great
Clip button layout is perfect

Cons:
Cannot test things without something being plugged into the headphone jack if the headphone volume is down
There is only one page for clips so if your project requires more you will have to change buttons on the fly instead of just switching pages
No save function to quickly load a different layout for other projects
Stop will stop all clips (usually what is wanted) but if there was a smaller button to tap if you wanted to stop an individual track as well, that would be great

### 5/5 — First review!

*2013-07-22*

Since this is the first review AND its 5 stars you'll probably all assume that it's a fake review posted by the developers, but I assure you, I'm a real human customer! 

Works perfectly for what I need. Downloaded this for use as a soundbox for fun fair rides. Plays my own custom jingles over the top of music being played through the phone already. Brilliant!

### 5/5 — .

*2013-04-12*

Awesome, exactly what I was looking for.. I wish I knew about this app sooner!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2012-09-23*

The first reviewer seems to have got the wrong idea about this app. It's great used for adding sound effects over the top of tunes as you play them live in another app, or over a live DJ set by plugging it into a mixer. Really useful!
