To cut to the chase, the app is fun to use in some ways but a pain to use in others. As one who doesn't want to get caught up in the money pit of buying Retronym's various music packs, I choose to import loops from my phone's files to use in Looperverse. It is doable but is not at all convenient, in that I have to convert the files via Audioshare to be useable in the app, which is a process with several steps. But, if you just want a simple looper to record song ideas without any EQ support (not even simple treble, bass, etc), this is a fun app in that you when you hit record, it will record a track then automatically record the next track once you reach the end of the preset loop length. I don't know of other looping apps that do that so that's a positive feature and kind of addictive. I would, however, love to see this app redesigned to play well with external apps and effects as well as being able to easily import loops from my device, as previously mentioned. The interface could definitely use a redesign because it's so easy to hit the wrong button when simply trying to scroll out the volume panel on the left side. There's a lot of potential here to have a superb looping app but it will definitely need changes to get there. ### 3/5 — Why *2020-12-21* Why does Retronyms refuse to update their apps? It's sad. I was always supportive but it's too much. It's not that they can't develop good apps. They have the expertise, but just don't take advantage. It's a mystery. I won't buy any of their apps again. I feel stupid for having given good reviews. ### 3/5 — Nicht für neue iPhones optimiert *2020-08-29* Die App kann man schwer auf den iPhones ohne Himbutton benutzen, da die Seiten abgeschnitten werden. Wieso gibt es noch keine Screen Optimierung dafür? Wir sind schon fast bei iPhone 12 . ### 3/5 — Almost *2020-04-23* Good useful features for looping, editing and mixing. However, the loop trimming tools are so clumsy it is rendered almost unusable. Maybe my particular thumbs, but the guide easily slips and reverts to the entire loop length, with no possibility to undo. Currently slightly bummed about my $7 **Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback.

Honest Review from Musician *2020-04-15* Hi there! If you’re looking for a looper app to actually compose or make interesting music... this is not the app for you. It is good enough to play around with for a couple of days. The time signatures beyond 4/4 and 8/8 don’t even work. The « split » and « copy » functions could be significantly better. Invest in a better app. **Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback.

Cheers -Robert ### 3/5 — Great! *2019-10-04* Works well, easy to use - good help and tutorials. I hope the developers keep the updates coming as I’d love to see it improve and develop. UPDATE: Copy/Paste needs fixing. ### 3/5 — Potential, needs urgent update. *2019-06-17* First impressions are that there is much potential here, which Retronyms are slow to implement. First off, the IAA selection is a nightmare, because it isn’t alphabetical. Secondly, as IAA is soon to be phased out by Apple, this app really needs to have AU3 added. Nic ### 3/5 — 日本語のマニュアルあれば・・・ *2019-04-16* 完璧なのに（泣） ### 4/5 — Almost perfect! *2019-01-09* Great app, easy to use. Would be five star but it desperately needs an update to fit the IPhone X and XS screen sizes. Please update, and if devs see this, let me know if you plan to update for this. **Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback.

Cheers -Robert ### 4/5 — The lesser evil *2018-10-20* Having struggled with many demons in the iOS pantheon (GarageBand, loopyhd, ThumbJam) I can attest that looperverse actually does what it says on the tin. IAA actually works, after a fashion, and it’s not insanely crippled like other apps. However, it has a ‘mute on record button’ which is activated by default. Stupid. But just to add more confusion - using IAA will turn it off...... but Audiobus won’t. Yeah. As I said: stupid. It also has misc glitches that will embarrass you onstage but like I said this is as good as iOS audio gets in my experience. Now if only the dev would respond to bug reports as quickly as they do sales enquiries. Kind of let’s you know where their priorities lie. ### 2/5 — Uhg *2018-09-17* Would be awesome if the screen didn't turn off and go black every five seconds... **Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback.

Cheers -Robert ### 3/5 — Fun and potentially amazing *2018-09-08* The best clip editing I’ve see on iOS. Really fun and intuitive to creatively mangle sounds instantly by stretching them and so on. With some extra love from Retronyms this could be a 5 star app easy but just needs polishing up and some refinements and final touches/features. ### 4/5 — Ein kleines Problem aber dennoch eine super App *2018-07-03* Im großen und ganzen echt gelungen. Ein Verbesserungsvorschlag: wenn man ein Projekt speichert und es umbenennen will verdeckt die Tastatur den „Save“ Button. Da ist dann Kreativität gefragt :) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Never updated but still wants your $$ *2023-01-17, version 1.3* This app hasn’t been updated in two years for and some time and it crashes every time I try to use it. I’m not a Retronyms fan by any way shape or form and the only apps that I think are remotely usable are the Arturia based apps (which thank goodness can still be used in Audiobus and not just that horrid Tabletop joke). This app is just one of Retronyns’ money grabs. It is not an efficient looper. It crashes if you try to load anything from their AudioCopy app which is the only thing they want you to do now is to spend money on new loops they keep releasing but NO real updates. The AudioCopy app is also antiquated and at the beginning of the iOS audio app revolution about 10 years ago it was a ‘must have’ but now instead of keeping up with the current times they just send you crappy beat packs to buy and NO app updates.. Trust me- I have over a hundred audio apps that I have paid for and beta tested. This one looks cool but it is a bummer. I have soo many looper apps on iPhones and iPads. This one is abandoned as far as I am concerned. Crash, freeze, stutter, rinse, repeat. If it EVER gets a menial update I will have an in-depth review.I mean I will test all my iPads and iPhones and see if it actually works with the myriad of sound packs that they released that still crash and make this “Looper” completely unusable. To the developer-thanks for responding a year after I left this review. I emailed you guys a few times with no response. You see I have been beta testing audio, video, and photo apps for 13 years and I ALWAYS contact the developer before I leave a poor review. Usually if I don’t get a response in a month after multiple emails then I leave a review if the app is buggy. I don’t know what you updated in Audiocopy but this app has not had any updates. The same with impc2 for iPhone (I have not opened my iPad this week so I can’t say if the iPad version has been updated). After I read your response I opened up Looperverse and tried Audiocopy today a file straight into Hook I was greeted with a trip to the App Store telling me Hook was not available for my device. I have it installed so I found that odd and that all has also not been updated in years. So I had to do a very long workaround and after two crashes my file exported but these apps should be updated. I have spent a lot of money with you guys and no updates. IAA is still on your apps and it is not supported anymore. At least make your apps work and maybe add auv3 (you could always make it an in app purchase). At least you have my money since I do own ALL of your apps but can’t use them. Sorry and thanks for the response. ### 1/5 — Don’t buy Any Retronyms apps except for Tabletop that’s their best *2022-04-26* Looperverse is glitchy and it crashes constantly, making you loose quality time it’s literally the most unproductive and buggy recording interface, I wish I could get my $ back for it and also for iMPC, iMPC, iMPC pro2, the AudioCopy tool also made by them is garbage and is the sole component in the glitches and constant crashes, all their “D.A.W stations use AudioCopy for fetching sample packs you buy separately. Rendering your hard earned money you spent on their products straight to the garbage. And 100% their profit! Has anyone got a full refund? **Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback.

A few recent bugs with AudioCopy interfered with the downloading of sound packs and we will work with you to make sure you don’t miss out on some of the best sounds around. We haven't received many recent reports of bugs in Looperverse but we'd love hear hear your experience and work on a fix. Cheers -Robert ### 1/5 — Unusable *2022-04-12* Because the panel is too big for iPhone 5s I can’t use this app. I wrote to your support but haven’t had a reply. I will get a refund then. ### 1/5 — Non-sens ! *2020-01-15* À Daw that is not synchronised to the system clock ???! Tell me how to use that please ? I can’t even evaluate that swindle ! ### 1/5 — けそ *2019-01-31* えいご嫁まてーん ### 1/5 — Buggy *2019-01-23* Lots of potential but hampered by bugs and no support. Doesn’t work with 2018 iPad Pro. Monitoring of Audiobus record sources is mono even if the incoming signal is stereo. **Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback.

Cheers -Robert ### 1/5 — Problem with Audiobus 3 *2018-12-09* The quality of audio recorded on looperverse through Audiobus 3 is altered. ### 1/5 — App crashes *2018-09-25* I have tried adding a track from Audio Copy 8 times and it says “pasting” then just crashes. Not worth the money when I can have a free app do that... **Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback.

Cheers -Robert ### 1/5 — When will the pedals be available for purchase again?? *2018-09-06* This seems to be a great app, but it seems like this developer is having a hard time making the pedals available for purchase again. I’ll reevaluate this review once I have the pedal. For now, it’s just lame that they don’t seem to care. ### 1/5 — Very bad crackling *2018-05-08* Terrible crackling sound on playback...it’s not only on playback but also when I use the in-app piano, whenever I hit a key there is terrible crackling. Also, tried archiving a scene and when I tried to name it the keyboard would not go away no matter how many times I hit return or touch the screen outside of the keyboard. I paid money for this? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2025-10-06* Y’all’s apps r absolutely the best ### 5/5 — How to get more Bars *2025-10-04* Apps great maybe it’s intended to be this way but seem I can’t add more bars. If I try to drag out I guess if pocket it shows your loop splitting into the beginning not adding time. My only downfall so far but just got this today ### 5/5 — Fastest way to get tracks down..... *2021-08-28* Such a great tool to be creative with. It’s ease and work flow are unparalleled in it’s intuitiveness and efficiency. Top notch. **Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback.

Cheers -Robert ### 5/5 — 完璧 *2020-01-01* 英語読めないとか言って低い評価つけてる奴は勉強しましょう ### 5/5 — Superb *2019-07-08* Using on iPhone 6s Plus and loving it , takes a bit of getting used to but patients pays off once your able to navigate and select correctly . Looking forward to getting some serious tunage put together with this outstanding app . Many thanks to the developer/s ### 5/5 — So many $ *2018-12-21* I downloaded another loop recorder (with less recording options) and it was free, and I don’t understand why this one cost so much, but I downloaded it anyways because I just so happen to have a gift card next to me and it is pretty good. It’s a lot like that Free loop recorder app I was talking about, so I don’t know why it cost so much. **Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback.

Cheers -Robert ### 5/5 — 使い勝手は間違いないNo.1 *2018-12-21* だがしかしmic lineからのinputの音割れが酷い ### 5/5 — とても良い *2018-11-20* ハードウエアのルーパーを使っていましたがLooperverse が気に入りました。 以下の点が改良されると更に良いと思います。 1.settingのmute during recordが保存されないため 毎回、設定しなおしている 2.input sourceの入力レベル調整機能の装備 3.midiトラックの装備 ### 5/5 — Nice *2018-06-02* It would be fantastic to have the possibility to select different source for different tracks to allow to record several sources on several tracks at the same time. ### 5/5 — アップデート *2018-02-16* すごく気に入って愛用していましたが、最近になってファイル読み込み時に閉じてしまいます。改善のアップデートを希望して待っています。 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
