## What is Music Vibes?

With Music Vibes, don't just hear the music, feel the music in your bones - with vibrations! 

With Haptic vibration technology available since iPhone 8, play a melody in Music Vibes, and you can literally feel the frequencies of a melody by the changes in vibration. Hold the bottom of the phone on your jaw or the side of your head and feel the music! 

A fascinating and thrilling exercise for the deaf or hard of hearing (or just curious!) to feel music as vibrations. 

If you are able to hear but would like to experience the vibrations without audio, you can simply switch audio off. You could also place your device on a hollow box (such as an empty tissue box), and you will be able to hear the haptic vibrations bouncing around inside the box!

• Play and record tunes on the piano
• Load up preset tunes
• Listen to the audio, or feel the vibrations!
• For a small in app purchase, load up a huge package of Christmas classics!

Q: How is it possible for the deaf to feel music through vibrations? 
A: Bone conduction!

Did you know that Ludwig van Beethoven, one of the most famous musical composers of all time, was almost completely deaf? Beethoven discovered a way to hear the sound of the piano through his jawbone by attaching a rod to his piano and clenching it in his teeth. He received perception of the sound when vibrations transfered from the piano to his jaw. This has proven that sound could reach our auditory system through another medium besides eardrums and the other medium is our bones. This is now known as Bone Conduction.

Compatibility: Music Vibes is compatible only with iPhones since iPhone 8, and requires at least iOS 13.

### 2/5 — needs loop and backgrounding

*2026-01-05*

good but unusable without loop and backgrounding (play w screen locked)

### 5/5 — Très fun

*2024-12-22*

C’est fuuunn

### 3/5 — I like the app a lot, but there’s only one problem with it

*2024-12-03*

The problem that I’m having that I would like you to guys to fix is whenever I am playing on the piano and I record it. The haptics get all screwed up and don’t play half of the time even whenever I slow down the tempo of the speed of my song 

whenever I load one of your songs that you guys made, it works perfectly fine even when I’m playing it works perfectly fine but the second I start recording it kind of breaks

### 5/5 — Feel the vibration!

*2019-12-10*

Interesting idea, thanks for creating this app and including one of my favorite tunes - greensleeves!
