yeah no. ⭐️ _ _ _ _

This app isn’t good or free but if you wanna spend money for all the features have at it buddy.

A great mobile solution as always… but come on.

Update:
The app, as always, is great… but I’m wondering what’s happened to the updates. The six-month waits in between packs are getting a bit old (it’s not THAT hard to design usable sounds), and it’s been 5 years since the last major x.0 update. What’s happening with Medly? (Hopefully they’re not using valuable time redesigning the UI to be closer to liquid glass…)

Review:
Medly has only gotten better over the years, and I have a feeling it’s going to get even better pretty soon. It’s been 5 years since Medly 6, so I have reason to believe Medly 7 is coming soon (especially since they’ve taken a short pause on making packs, similar to how they did just before releasing Medly 6). If this is the case, I’m excited! I am kind of wondering what’s happening behind the scenes, considering it’s been 5 months since the last pack or feature update.

Easy to understand but…

First time I opened this app it was amazing! I was fooling around with the starter pack & all, but when I existed it; I saw that everything is behind a paywall! I was so excited to try another app & it looked SO promising, but I can’t use anything; especially the string instruments because I wanted to make violin songs. I understand that you guys need money, but find other ways without blocking everything for $60!!

Good app

Good for making songs

Need some help

I cannot buy the subscription directly through App Store anymore because I live in Russia, but I really want to keep making music here. Is there another payment method or((

It’s ok

It’s a good making thing but most instruments are not free so mid

Wow

Okay first I have never made a beat like this before it’s actually fire! But there is one thing, the member thing,after your free trial is up it goes straight to paying and for me that doesn’t really work,it would be better if you had an option,so you do the free trial then you pay,instead of put your details in before the trail and automatically starts paying straight after you finish it. but over all it a great app its amazing for beginners! And don’t look at the name I promise i am normal.

Wow

Just wow .Wow that crazy

Meh

DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!!!!!!

I have used this app for years, believing it was the best fit for me. However, the subscriptions, the weird sounding instruments, & the mockery I got from making music via Medly (2018 - 2025) tells me MUCH more than otherwise.
Most instruments you would WANT to use are locked behind a paywall, you can only go up to 144 bars until the app says “okay, that’s enough music lol”, + when you decide to delete the app & redownload it, it will ERASE ALL OF YOUR DATA. ALL OF IT.
I got mocked for my work because of those instruments, found out what my actual style was, & I REALIZED I WAS USING THE WRONG DAW THE WHOLE TIME.
I GOT RIDICULED FOR NOTHING.

Do NOT get this app unless you want to waste both your time & money.

Heed my warning.

Review

Very Disappointed

I really love this app and the format of the interface. My issue is with the fact that I purchased a pass to unlock the full library at one point and now everything that I purchased was pretty much revoked once the update for the subscription system was put into place. Now I've lost access to edit any of the songs I have in my library that I composed. It just seems a little shady and unfair from a business perspective to revoke something that was already purchased and force someone to pay a subscription to access what they already should have. Now the stuff that used to come free with the app is behind a pay wall. Would not recommend. They’re dipping their hand into the cookie jar too much.

Easy to use

Literally, it’s very beginner friendly and I can make good songs with it

Thank you

It’s nice, thanks for the content.

Good but bad..

So basically this saw has some pretty good instruments but most of them are paid.

Love it! But one thing is missing

I love the app, it’s fun to use and has a wide variety of sounds, I do have one request though. Do you think you could add an industrial sound pack with things like gear, metal clanging, saws, welding, and machinery sounds? I’d love it if you could!

Please

I need you to make it so you can to three sections as well as two and one

This is awesome

I gave this app five stars. This is the best app in the world.

Good

Paywall

Too many basic instruments get locked behind a paywall. I swear essentials and classical used to be free but upon re-downloading the app, everything is behind a paywall.
