### 5/5 — Blows away my desktop DAW

*2026-08-10, version 2.0.5*

I’ve been a music producer in multi-instrumentalist for 20 years, I have a few album albums, assigned to a record label in Europe. I have been using Cuba’s, and then studio one, and then more recently getting into live looping. Had a little boss pedal which was kind ok. I heard about this program Loopy Pro. I downloaded it over a year ago, initially overwhelmed. Everyone says it’s so powerful but it has a bit of a steep learning curve. For some videos, understanding the nuances, and the subtle brilliance with this simplicity, I can now say after using this for a year and a half it is more than just a music looping program, it is in fact life-changing. Once you start using it you can see the potential, you can literally do anything live. I mean anything. I have used Ableton for some live looping in the past, and this completely blows it away. I cannot give it enough accolades, it is absolutely brilliant, and served me in a path, spending thousands of dollars to upgrade my physical equipment with the main hub loopy pro on an iPad. I’m telling you right now, in the right hand this will blow away anything on a laptop, anything on Ableton live. It’s worth so much more than the nominal price here on the App Store.

### 5/5 — pretty much my main DAW now

*2026-08-10, version 2.0.5*

I've tried so many different hardware and software loopers I've lost count.  I own an RC505mk2, mk1, RC5, ableton, logic pro, and have tried countless others - this DAW just blows them all out of the water.  It is one of the most fun and intuitive DAWs I've ever used - so much so that it's basically my main idea generator these days.  I use it on both my iphone and ipad, with a more elaborate hardware rig (12 channels) and with a very simple 2 channel interface for buskin' and Loopy pro handled both flawlessly.  Waiting desperately for the macos version so I can use it on every platform.  The development team is responsive, I've never had it crash, and even with my 12ch setup the CPU usage barely goes about 20% on a medium range iPad.  This app is an inspiring instrument, a breath of fresh air.

### 5/5 — Wonderful way to come up with tunes for songs

*2026-07-31, version 2.0.5*

I love loopy pro. I’ve only used it for a month or so, but it’s very worth. My creation process is very spontaneous, so having an app that not only makes looping easy, but fun, is great for my music making. Thanks Michael!

### 5/5 — Pretty Awesome

*2026-07-28, version 2.0.5*

Not greedy like many app devs

### 5/5 — Amazing software!!!!!!

*2026-07-23, version 2.0.5*

I’ve been looping for 10 years and this is a game changer!!!!

### 5/5 — The last piece of software you need

*2026-07-22, version 2.0.5*

I’ve been trying to figure out how to get an easy multi-instrument set up to loop and play live for years. Loopy Pro has brought my vision to life and gave me the power to bring it even further than I had dreamed of. I run drums, guitar, bass, and synths all through a single iPad, each with their own effects/apps, and out to a single amp. It’s insanely easy to switch between the right sounds exactly when I want them. The learning curve is extremely low and the community creating tutorials and walk through is incredible- so you can find how to do almost anything in the app with ease. If I could give it 6/5 stars I would. Whoever is building this thing is a genius and deserves more money than they are charging for this.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2026-07-22, version 2.0.5*

Super powerful…just takes time to learn

### 5/5 — Loopy Pro becomes what you need

*2026-07-21, version 2.0.5*

It is hard to describe how good Loopy Pro really is. It becomes whatever kind of looper you desire. There is a learning curve of course that comes with this much versatility. There is a multitude of people online including the developer willing and able to help you fulfill your looper dreams.
Hate subscriptions? Me too. The payment model is the way of the future in my opinion. You pay one time and get a full year of updates after that keeping all you have. If you want more updates after that you pay more. A perfect balance that encourages customers and the developer.

### 5/5 — Dope

*2026-07-19, version 2.0.5*

This is it boys and girls.  The one piece for music heads

### 5/5 — Only Limited By Your Imagination

*2026-07-13, version 2.0.5*

Probably the most powerful and flexible music production/performing app there is. I think it’s also safe to say that Micheal would have to be the most helpful, hands-on and inspirational developer there is. A brilliant mind and such a rad human. 

I’m only new to LP and will update this soon. 

#melbsmusicscene

### 5/5 — 10 out of 5

*2026-07-12, version 2.0.5*

THE best looping app around. Period.

### 5/5 — Mind. Blowing.

*2026-07-12, version 2.0.5*

I’m only scratching the surface but I keep finding new ways to make my workflow more creative to suit my needs. Basically, if I have an idea that I want do go for live, I’m able to. Really inspiring app. While there’s a slight learning curve, it’s worth every second.

### 5/5 — Imagination all you need

*2026-07-10, version 2.0.5*

You can do almost anything with Loopy Pro. I’m still learning how to utilize its features. You do little or much. Takes a little time and guidance for me, but plenty of support and help available from the Developer and elsewhere on the internet.

### 5/5 — Excellent live tool

*2026-07-05, version 2.0.5*

So many features that just work! Super low latency, incredibly flexible and drama free.

### 4/5 — Very good

*2026-07-03, version 2.0.5*

It’s a very in depth app that’s awesome only thing is I would like better instruction

### 5/5 — This app is the one I’ve been looking for

*2026-07-01, version 2.0.5*

I initially discounted loopy thinking the spinning clips were a gimmick. But I was wrong. Not only does it look great, but has almost every feature I could ask for. You can tell the love, care and attention to detail that has gone into making this thing. Try the demo it seriously rocks and worth every penny.

### 5/5 — Love it, but a question…

*2026-06-30, version 2.0.5*

I’ve been looping since Boss came out with their first pedal. That was the first of many pedals…  LP blows them all away. Question:  I have 10 starters saved on my iPad.  How do I get those projects into my LP on my iPhone 17e?

### 5/5 — Fire app!!!!

*2026-06-26, version 2.0.5*

I feel like the next ed sharan

### 5/5 — Fun and powerful app.

*2026-06-25, version 2.0.5*

I have been wanting to try Loopy Pro for ages. It’s so much fun to play with. It did take me a while to get started but the online community has plenty of great tutorials.

### 5/5 — Great Workflow

*2026-06-23, version 2.0.5*

The approach to song building in Loopy is much more intuitive than other apps I’ve tried. It feels more natural to me than using a linear daw like Cubasis or Logic and has an easier learning curve than similar apps like Drambo (also a great app but took me a while to understand), Loopy has been a breeze to get the hang of.

### 1/5 — File explorer

*2025-11-03*

Overall app is good. It can be best sampler/DAW app on iOS. But there is huge BUT! There is no proper file explorer!!! Picking any sample from your library takes about 20-30 secs!!! And you can’t properly listen it because files app is slow!

Working in koala sampler is much more faster and handy. Please, add NORMAL file explorer, like in koala sampler.

**Developer response:** Hi there. Sorry to hear you had a frustrating experience. What you’re describing definitely isn’t typical. Picking samples should be fast. Drag and drop from the Files app straight onto clips, for example, usually works great.

If you’re finding it’s taking 20–30 seconds, something unusual is going on. If you’d like to reach out directly (support@loopypro.com), I can take a closer look at your workflow and help you get things running smoothly.

### 1/5 — 中文中文

*2025-04-02*

中了那么多年了，还不中，youtu上不是更新了midi音符嘛为啥这里没有？？？

**Developer response:** 你好，这里对评论内容做一个澄清：评论中提到的功能 —— MIDI 循环 —— 目前从未在 Loopy Pro 中提供。该功能正在开发中，并将作为即将发布的 2.0 版本的一部分推出，目前已开放 TestFlight 公测。

我一直与用户社区保持紧密联系，了解大家最关注的需求，并在此基础上持续改进应用。同时，我也坚持维持 Loopy Pro 的稳定性和专业水准——这是许多职业音乐人所依赖的工具。高质量的开发需要时间，尤其是在由我一人独立完成的情况下。相比仓促推出不成熟的功能，我更倾向于把事情做好。

如果你是根据现有功能购买的 Loopy Pro，我相信它已经兑现了它的承诺。如果你在等待尚未发布的功能，欢迎加入 beta 测试，或者等 2.0 正式发布后再做评价。

因为一个尚未发布的功能而给出一星评价，对开发者是不公平的，也会误导其他潜在用户。

感谢阅读。

### 1/5 — Is this an abandoned product?

*2025-02-14, version 1.1.24*

Paid for updates, nothing new…

### 1/5 — Wants thirty quid from you. Not getting mine.

*2024-12-28, version 1.1.24*

Appears to be free, but is actually thirty quid to keep, which is, to be frank, a lot of money for a fairly simple app… whoever the guy selling it is, he clearly doesn’t know the economy.

### 1/5 — THIS APP DOSENT WORK

*2024-11-28, version 1.1.24*

It is bad. Don’t ever get this app no matter how good your friend says it is

### 1/5 — glitchy and doesnt work

*2024-11-20, version 1.1.24*

literally doesnt work.  imported my song Im working on to select a chunk and test vocal ideas over it.  unfortunately the media import and trim feature is so broken and glitchy.  not sure how this app has such good rstings when I cant even do the bare minimum with it

### 1/5 — Could be amazing but

*2024-03-16, version 1.1.18*

this must have the most unintuitive app design when it comes to how monitoring and routing are implemented. The manual is appalling for a paid-for app. I managed to cobble a working rig, but a few hours later I already no longer understand why it is working, so that gives some idea of how hard it is to figure out what’s wrong when it’s not working.

### 1/5 — You have to pay

*2024-03-15*

Every where I touch it say buy:(

**Developer response:** Yes, I ask to be paid for my work, just like you do! However, I have a well-publicised policy that if you can't afford to pay, I will give you Loopy Pro for free. You just need to get in touch. A one-star review complaining about having to pay for others' work, however, will get you nowhere, I'm afraid.

### 1/5 — Subscriptions, subscriptions, subscriptions, of course.

*2024-02-05, version 1.1.17*

You have to PAY 39.99 DOLLARS FOR THIS APP! 

Now, by looking at this game, you see it’s free!
You download it.
You go through the stuff.
You started by pressing the disk, and all of a sudden a subscription pops up with 39.99 DOLLARS TO BUY LOOPY PRO!

I was looking for a new music app, and once I saw two “free” apps that required complications, or a subscription. And I gave up on making my own music.

### 1/5 — Too complicated!!

*2024-01-01, version 1.1.15*

Was hoping I can do the basics and learn to  use more features as I go but I realise I have to spend big time learning how to do very simple tasks like recording a basic loop. Not intuitive and rather frustrating.

### 5/5 — Incredible and flexible!

*2026-08-30, version 2.0.5*

The term “Looper” doesn’t even come close to justifying this amazing piece of software. Imagine Ableton Live, complete with Session and Arranger - then add a totally flexible MIDI controller which you can design yourself - both with looks and functionality. Then add some more cool stuff, like the Ability to run Loopy Pro as a plugin - IN Loopy Pro! The fact that this also runs on an iPhone is insane. Big thanks to dev Michael!

### 5/5 — Amazing and flexible beyond imagination

*2026-08-24, version 2.0.5*

While I use very little of what Loopy Pro can actually do, it really helps to have a looper fully integrated with mixer for routing (eliminates so much cabling). Full MIDI control over everything. Loopy Pro is incredibly powerful for live music creation.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-23, version 2.0.5*

You won’t get board with it it has so many options creativity is endless

### 5/5 — The best.

*2026-08-22, version 2.0.5*

Does everything you imagine and more.

### 5/5 — Exceptional

*2026-08-21, version 2.0.5*

This is an exceptional app. If you know what you want your looper to do it seems limitless in its capabilities. If you don’t then it will require some thought before you start building templates or it will make your brain hurt! I’m somewhere in between at the moment but the potential of this thing is staggering.

### 5/5 — More powerful than RC-600 and RC-500

*2026-08-18, version 2.0.5*

Being an RC-600 and RC-500 experienced user, I am very happy with this extraordinary looper that provides new possibilities for composition, rehearsal, and multi-track recording. I guess my old Boss hardware can take a break and move aside for Loopy Pro. Good YouTube video support for learning the interface, which is a very friendly UI with minimal time invested in the learning curve. You know how we get excited about a new instrument or pedal…. Loopy Pro is one of those things that captures the imagination by allowing our inspiration to guide us.

### 5/5 — The Best Looper!!!

*2026-08-18, version 2.0.5*

The Best Looper!!!

### 5/5 — Super

*2026-08-17, version 2.0.5*

Very inspiring! Thoughtfully made, and capable.

### 5/5 — Loving it!

*2026-08-14, version 2.0.5*

Just touching the surface of LP capabilities- learning a lot already, especially about song arrangements.Great start!

### 5/5 — Топ за свои деньги

*2026-08-13, version 2.0.5*

Кайф
