And it doesn’t work on iPhone 16 ### 2/5 — Bof *2025-04-23, version 1.3.4* Ça se voit que l’appli n’a pas été mise à jour depuis des années, vu l’interface qui n’est pas du tout adaptée aux écrans récents qu’on a l’habitude de voir depuis au moins 2017/2018… d’ailleurs elle est plutôt inutile et très limitée. ### 3/5 — Heavily outdated. Dysfunctional. Unfortunately! *2025-04-12, version 1.3.4* Guys, why did you abandoned this app? Last update 8 years ago thus no surprise this app became dysfunctional on newer iOS versions (e.g. iOS 17+). Fails to connect with FL on Desktop though button is enable in FL Studio's MIDI-Settings. Wonder why IL still keeps the "Connect to IL Remote" option within main FL App if IL Remote is totally outdated. Nevertheless might be a nice handy way to control certain parameters in FL from within another room e.g. Rec Room while pc is located in Mixing Room. I suspect IL abandoned the project as literally everyone can buy a cheap MIDI-Controller like a drum pad or midi piano. So it makes this app superfluous. What a pity! ### 3/5 — Please add support for fl studio mobile *2025-03-01, version 1.3.4* I have fl studio on my iPad and I would like to control it using my phone. ### 2/5 — Não funciona mais! *2025-01-21, version 1.3.4* Baixei e fui tentar usar na versão mais recente do Fl Studio e não funcionou! ### 4/5 — Works flawlessly , but UI updates required *2024-11-28, version 1.3.4* As the title says ### 2/5 — Poderia ser bem melhor *2024-10-11, version 1.3.4* Já usei a algum tempo, mas deveriam refazer o aplicativo. Outras daws já tem uma versão remota mais decente mas esse aplicativo tem que melhorar e muito kk ### 2/5 — needs to be able to go longer distances *2024-09-08, version 1.3.4* This app is good just very temperamental on distance if you go too far it disconnects and never connects back to the computer. i have been tryinna connect it back for hours already after it disconnected ion recomment it until they fix the connection problem. you literally need two people in the studio dont trust this app ### 4/5 — Please update this. *2024-06-21, version 1.3.4* I love using this as it improves my workflow a lot, but it hasn't been updated in 7 years, which has caused quite a few issues. Please update this. ### 4/5 — Problemas con IOS *2024-06-01, version 1.3.4* La app es el futuro, solo que por el momento en IOS luego de hacer algunas modificaciones al layer se cierra la aplicacion inesperadamente ### 4/5 — Works great most of the time *2024-03-08, version 1.3.4* This app is great for everything it does, just sometimes it doesn’t connect. ### 3/5 — บั้กบรรลัย *2023-03-17, version 1.3.4* แต่ก็พอใช้ได้แก้ขัดที่งบประมานซื้อ hardwear ### 4/5 — Fruity Scratcher *2022-09-20, version 1.3.4* Не хватает контроллера Fruity Scratcher ### 2/5 — doesn't work anymore *2022-09-11, version 1.3.4* it used to be perfect, now it doesn't want to connect no matter how long the app is open. please fix it!! ### 4/5 — Crash when save preset *2022-05-05, version 1.3.4* Please fix crashes when saving preset. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t Open This App in My IPhone 15 Promax Please Update *2025-10-16, version 1.3.4* Can’t Open This App in My IPhone 15 Promax Please Update ### 1/5 — What is this *2025-08-19, version 1.3.4* Piano don’t work ### 1/5 — Crash *2025-07-17, version 1.3.4* The app keeps crashing every time i try to click on fl studio to continue. ### 1/5 — 今はただのゴミ *2025-04-05, version 1.3.4* こんなの要らん ### 1/5 — Still having crashing issues *2025-03-17, version 1.3.4* Can’t change nor edit the layers. Also crashing when inputting. 8 years is more than enough for a good update. ### 1/5 — Outdated, but great concept *2024-11-20, version 1.3.4* I really wish there was an update for this. Image-Line is much better at making software now and they could fix the clunkiness of this app in a matter of seconds. Also PLEASE ADD the option to enable countdown recording and to move the playback arrow. This could easily level up my recording workflow if these features were added! ### 1/5 — Update please *2023-06-30, version 1.3.4* We already need an interface update for the current iPhone screen resolution, improving buttons and their overall appearance. ### 1/5 — Seriously Looks Atrocious *2022-06-20, version 1.3.4* I cannot believe this is supposed to be the companion to FL studio, it looks awful, is clunky, doesn’t even fill the screen. An embarrassing companion to the DAW I use. Logic remote is amazing so this is such a shame to see. ### 1/5 — Prepare for Hours of Frustration *2021-12-13, version 1.3.4* What a mess. Hasn’t been updated in five years and it shows - want to build custom layouts for a particular plugin? Enjoy adding one button at a time, saving your layout, and then adding another button only for the app to crash (without fail), losing any changes you made since saving. It’s a shame really - the responsiveness of the few things you can manage to program before crashing is on par with a hardware controller. If you’re a “time is money” type, skip this and buy a hardware controller. I’ll see you in a year when I’m finished crashing my way through creating a layout. ### 1/5 — Frequent Crashes. *2021-10-24, version 1.3.4* This app got so much potential that could replace keyboard. but it crashes so well when i customize things, and screen ratio is not optimized for new iPads. this app need to be revived with new design! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ok *2025-06-16, version 1.3.4* Ok ### 5/5 — Exceptional! *2025-01-18, version 1.3.4* I use the FL DAW when I have trouble converting analog processing. The problem is that analog has to be converted by a digital software in order to identify inconsistencies in analog programs. The remote is a useful much needed tool to simplify a complex process. ### 5/5 — Just used it for the first time today *2024-07-28, version 1.3.4* Once I figured out how to get it working with my computer's FL Studio in settings, I was able to start recording, stop, and make a new recording without having to go all the way across the room. Very significant help! I don't really know what all the other things do, but for a remote, it is very handy! ### 5/5 — No me lo esperaba *2023-02-11, version 1.3.4* Descargue la app con pocas expectativas de que fuera tan sencillo emparejarlo con el programa y lo fue! Funciona perfecto, se puede hacer par con los controles que tú quieras dentro del program de una manera muy responsive y sin ningún problema. Se puede configurar los layouts como uno prefiera cambiando tamaño, botones y sliders. Muy bueno. Totalmente inesperado ### 5/5 — Connect via USB? *2022-08-08, version 1.3.4* Is there an option to just connect to it via USB just in case my Wi-Fi is shotty? I really don’t wanna buy another MIDI Keyboard. ### 5/5 — Useful and easy to use *2022-04-06, version 1.3.4* It can temporarily replace midi keyboard to a small extent,Besides, many other functions are integrated, all of which are very practical.The current version of the connection is very simple and fast. The only fly in the ointment is the delay caused by Bluetooth connection. It's not obvious. In short, it can improve a lot of efficiency ### 5/5 — Please update the app! Would love to use this as a keyboard for my fl studio! 😆 *2021-01-31, version 1.3.4* Title ### 5/5 — Very good *2020-07-15, version 1.3.4* Nice App for FL Studio ### 5/5 — 唉。 *2020-04-01* 功能齐全，赞一个！但是就是没有声音了。 ### 5/5 — ค่ะ *2020-03-17, version 1.3.4* ครับ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
