### 2/5 — Black screen

*2025-09-30, version 3.1*

Watched the opening tutorial video. The screen went black and I haven’t been able to get the app back since. It just opens to a black screen.

### 3/5 — I thought it was drum beats

*2024-10-23, version 3.1*

Its mostly instrumental songs, not easy to find drum beats, so not as useful as I thought.

### 3/5 — Interface is Clunky and Poorly Labeled

*2022-06-23, version 3.1*

and ill-formatted for screens that aren’t 12… even though it’s fully capable of stretching along the X axis. just not the Y axis. it’s a fine app but the technical limitations interfere heavily with its ease of use.

### 1/5 — Language..REALLY!?

*2021-06-28, version 3.1*

Can’t use this. Offended by the track titles and can’t use with children…not getting my money.

### 1/5 — Absolute rubbish!

*2021-01-16, version 3.1*

Introduction videos have sound but no pictures, held videos don’t work waste of £9.99, DO NOT PURCHASE THIS APP IT DOES NOT WORK

### 4/5 — Wondering about sustainability.  Developer Still Around?

*2020-06-15, version 3.1*

This is a very clean, useful and user friendly app.   Visually, it’s quite stunning which is apparently no easy feat (so many fantastic apps look like crap!)

I’m looking at the subscription option here and comparing it to the other paid app from the same dev (Easybeats 3 I believe it is).

I’d rather not purchase both but might - they’re both priced extremely well - appreciate that!

My concern is that it doesn’t look like there’s been an update for 2 years.   Perhaps it just hasn’t required much but most of the apps I end up using the most are the ones that are being updated fairly frequently and the devs are looking for new things they can add to improve.

I guess that’s really my only knock though.   It’s a beautiful app and I’m sure the other one is as well.   Just hope it sticks around and we see the dev pop in!

### 1/5 — No save button.

*2020-05-30, version 3.1*

No save button. 
‘Watch tutorial’ option doesn’t work.
‘Erase pad’ doesn’t work.
No response from tech support. Quality.

### 5/5 — I am on the other day

*2020-05-12, version 3.1*

The best of the most part I am not a big fan and the slippers to be cute 444433 the same time is no

### 5/5 — Good little app.

*2020-04-10, version 3.0.7*

### 1/5 — Hello

*2026-07-14, version 3.1*

2weeks after buying a year long subscription it stopped loading all the kits except for the like 10 on the first page I’ve been trying to find a way to contact customer service with no luck all the links don’t work or there broken

### 1/5 — Clunky and outdated

*2026-06-01, version 3.1*

Very outdated and not intuitive interface. Very limited sound shaping capabilities. Very limited step sequencing options. The UI elements overlap with iPad’s native buttons (such as iPad page split, three dots, etc).  Very bad experience.

### 1/5 — Not even app

*2026-05-03, version 3.1*

It’s just a video

### 1/5 — No longer works on iPhone

*2026-01-10, version 3.1*

I paid a subscription for a whole year and now the app won’t load. I’ve lost many things I’ve spent time programming. There’s no way to contact the developer. The app was great for the many years I was using it. But now I feel short changed out of my fee.

### 1/5 — Deleted immediately

*2025-04-09, version 3.1*

I searched best free drum machine in google, and EastBeats was the top result. However, on downloading it, I was faced with a video and no menu keys. The video was not helpful. Unusable. Removed app.

### 1/5 — Network error

*2025-01-25, version 3.1*

The app is broken

### 1/5 — Network error

*2024-12-19, version 3.1*

I bought this app a couple weeks ago and now I'm getting the network error. I paid for a subscription for a network error. Please fix this.

### 1/5 — If you want to use your own sounds, this isn’t it.

*2023-10-27, version 3.1*

“Easily import your own sounds.” This is not an option in this app. It does not exist.

### 1/5 — Wont leave demo mode

*2023-04-30, version 3.1*

App just runs a demo you can never leave. Total junk

### 1/5 — Nothing free

*2022-06-16, version 3.1*

If you make a beat it changes the entire rhythm nothing you can do about it. Can’t make custom beats

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — I get to make beats

*2026-04-02, version 3.1*

I love to make beats I get to make beat

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-03-08, version 3.1*

One of the best beat making apps I’ve came across yet.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-06-13, version 3.1*

Great app for learning how to make beats or jam out. Gives you a wide variety by being able to download other users sound packs I love it and for the price or lack there of who could complain.thank you easy beats

### 5/5 — I have loved this app for years

*2023-12-19, version 3.1*

This is hands down my favorite music/drum machine/synth combo ever. I have only a couple issues but none of which would ever get me to stop playing it. One is sending uncompressed Audio files, you used to be able to send them to a friend to check out what you’ve been working on for them to listen to on their stereo but for some reason now when I send it only 30 seconds of the track is sent most the time. Key word there being most the time. It’s weird cause sometimes it will send it all and it’s not just my phone, it did it on my other one too, I did the usual turn device off and restarted it, then I deleted and reinstalled and it still did nothing. So that’s one kinda crummy thing. The only other thing is when I modify a sample for the first time after closing the app fully when I go back, then it acts like I never touched it and sometime I will have saved it to a very particular spot and when I go back it’s hard to find right where I had it. And yes I save the machine after doing so and I save the track and the machine again then the track again just for good measure but to no avail. Other then those two things I love this app and I play it more then any other game I have hands down.

### 5/5 — Ez Beats is fun

*2023-02-20, version 3.1*

It’s fun to make Beats ez Beats there’s so much to Beats I say a 10 out of 10.

### 5/5 — Lol

*2022-12-07, version 3.1*

I haven’t tried it yet just love the fact it says “HOPEFULLY USEFUL SOFTWARE” 😂😂

### 5/5 — Bloody superb

*2022-10-17, version 3.1*

This is what I’ve been looking for. A deserved 5 stars!

### 5/5 — Free version is nice but worth the cost for a subscription

*2021-11-16, version 3.1*

I’ve had this app for a week, and I’m hella satisfied. The tutorial was nice, but I decided to go online, and look at beat patterns are made. I incorporated that into this app, and I’m having a lot of fun. You won’t be disappointed. This app is amazing.I gave the UI a 8.5 out of 10 for the iPhone. Obviously, the screen is small so somethings are hit or miss but overall the UI on the phone is pretty friendly. I’m almost 100% sure navigation is even better on an iPad.

### 5/5 — The best an awesome generator 21

*2021-06-30, version 3.1*

You can not beat this app/program it is as it says on the package description plus more .. I love the easy to get asmples effex and allready installed to downloadable drum kits 110/100

Kind regards

### 5/5 — Easy to use, no ads

*2020-08-17, version 3.1*

Just wanted a simple drumkit to use while practicing piano, this fits the bill. I like how the tutorial message hovers over dual purpose buttons, and that it has both pads and sequencer. The best part is not getting your beat interrupted by 30 second ads.
