### 3/5 — Huge potential, but needs polishing

*2026-08-03*

Seems to have all essential features, but the UI&UX really need some rework. There’s a lot of duplicate information and functionality with unintuitive interaction and feedback. And text/interface element sizing is quite random. Unfortunately the documentation doesn’t reflect the current state of the app and there’s no way to figure out the functionality of some buttons and interactions. It’s also somewhat buggy in the way interface elements scale/reset and are partially obstructed, or the note editor triggers false positive input actions (extending notes to the right selects previous notes and moves instead, or deselecting notes sometimes triggers inserting a new note etc).
I could see myself really liking this app for its function-completeness alone, but it‘s not there yet in terms of UI/UX.

### 2/5 — The game is probably good, but I cannot play it

*2026-07-31, version 10.5.179*

I can make a beat, but can’t hear it. I can’t listen to other people songs either so this is a good rate.

### 2/5 — Last message before removing the app

*2026-07-24, version 10.5.165*

The app wasn't helpful AT ALL yk.. Hehe.. 2 stars..

### 3/5 — Listen

*2026-07-01, version 10.5.147*

I gave it 3 because it is hard to work with and you have to have you mic on so when you do the drums I can hear my tv in the background also when I have jbl headphones and I can’t hear anything

### 2/5 — FIX YOUR APP!!

*2026-06-13*

There is a glitch in n-track studio with the drum sampler, when a sample is finished playing, it replays the ENTIRE sample slightly quieter, regardless of the selected section. I’ve looked through just about every setting in the editor and i can’t find the source of the glitch. I think it’s the name but I’m not sure, it’s messing up my song and I’m can’t find the issue. Fixing this would be greatly appreciated.

**Developer response:** From what you’ve described, it’s most likely a combination of two factors: the loop button set to "Loop until release" mode and a long release time. 
You can change the loop type by following these steps in the manual https://ntrack.com/help/manual.html?platform=ios#loop-modes
The release time can be adjusted on the page following the samples one, using the graph, or in the "envelope" page.

### 2/5 — Was Amazing

*2026-05-31, version 10.5.119*

I’ve used and loved this app for years but the recent changes have made this app hardly usable. The layout used to be intuitive and direct - now it is’bt. The focus on making a song with loops and autogenerating  song structure has gotten in the way of us who make songs by recording and building songs front to back. God knows I loved the old Ntrack and I miss it. I hope so hard that we can atleast have the option to switch to the old layout in settings. Please - atleast give us that option. Thanks.

### 3/5 — It’s okay but I have a ton of issues with it

*2026-05-03*

Okay so I was trying to find softwares to make glitchcore on and this came up and this is what I have to say abt it IF you somehow figured how to make that on here then good for you but if you haven’t THIS APP DOES NOT WORK also it dosen’t help that it IS CONSTANTLY TRYING TO GET ME ONTO PRO it’s like I can’t use it for half a minute without them advertising pro to me and it’s really annoying so those are my main issues PLEASE add a glitchcore section or at least deal with the pro advertisement 3/5 stars

### 2/5 — The interface is awful

*2026-04-26, version 10.5.81*

Just getting to automation for reverb or volume etc. is like solving a video game mystery. I don’t need or want this level of frustration. The app is just too difficult to use. Goodbye!

### 2/5 — New update is difficult to work with

*2026-04-10, version 10.5.53*

I love using this app but the recent update had the app crashing constantly. Also removing the metronome from the hotbar in the vertical UI is really inefficient, I would have to rotate my screen in order to use some of the features which is mildly annoying. Also this didn’t happen before but now when I try to import an mp3 file, it would say that the file type wasn’t supported even though it worked fine before. Though, that wasn’t so big of an issue because it would still allow me to work with the file anyways.

### 2/5 — 編集の邪魔

*2026-03-31*

ピアノロールの右側にあるトラック選択が非表示になると良いですね。
縦画面ではピアノロールの時間軸が狭くなるので、音名とグリッドのみで良いのではないでしょうか。
現状はピアノロールの右側に邪魔なものがあり、ただでさえ狭いピアノロールの表示領域をさらに狭くしてくれています。

**Developer response:** ご意見ありがとうございます。今後のアプリのアップデートに向けて、縦方向のレイアウト改善を検討させていただきます。右側の要素は、トラックナビゲーターに戻ることなく複数のMIDIトラック間をスムーズに移動できるようにするためのものです。これらを表示・非表示に切り替える機能についても検討いたします。
評価の引き上げをご検討いただければ幸いです。星の評価が高ければ高いほど、今後のアプリ改善に役立てることができます。よろしくお願いいたします。

Thank you for your feedback. We will consider improving the vertical layout in future app updates. The elements on the right are designed to allow you to move smoothly between multiple MIDI tracks without having to return to the track navigator. We will also look into adding a feature to toggle these elements on and off.
We would be grateful if you could consider giving us a higher rating. The higher the star rating, the more it will help us improve the app in the future. Thank you for your support.

### 4/5 — Soft Clipper

*2026-03-13, version 10.4.164*

Add a soft clipper

### 2/5 — Wish it had Pluggnb sounds too

*2026-01-16, version 10.4.164*

I like this app it’s great and it has a lot of great music features but look we can’t make new jazz, jersey club/phonk, rap ,and pluggnb (new jazz is melodic hip hop) pls add updates.

### 4/5 — Интерфейс

*2025-12-10*

Здравствуйте, на русском языке нет версии?

**Developer response:** Для iOS вам нужно изменить языковые настройки вашего устройства. Оно автоматически подберет тот язык, который вы установили.

### 2/5 — It use to be great

*2025-11-26, version 10.4.137*

I’ve been using this app for a long time and it used to be great. Now all it does is glitches and doesn’t capture the reverb when I save it. I’m constantly having to export it because I’m afraid it’s going to get lost.

### 3/5 — 会员专享能不能放过我一次😭👊

*2025-11-08*

内容真的很好很好，值得打满分💯；就是里面有一些很感兴趣的项目，但部分要充会员才行😑，所以扣2分，打3分

### 2/5 — Wish it had Pluggnb sounds too

*2025-10-29, version 10.4.135*

I like this app it’s great and it has a lot of great music features but look we can’t make new jazz, jersey club/phonk, rap ,and pluggnb (new jazz is melodic hip hop) pls add updates.

### 1/5 — Percucion limitada

*2026-07-04, version 10.5.164*

Percusion limitada. Yo hago musica latina en midi(salsa, merengue, bachata, etc) y no tienen mucho que ofrecer para estos generos.

### 1/5 — horrendously bad user interface

*2026-05-25, version 10.5.95*

i couldn't get past the user interface obviously created by soviet era programmers locked in some dungeon paid in bread and vodka and stale cigarettes without so much as a window to look out of let alone any idea of what touch screen technology is or an audio interface is from 2020. don't waste your patience on this catastrophe of a daw

### 1/5 — Problematic occurred.

*2026-03-23, version 10.4.164*

I have a mini iPad that is 10 years old and I get that it’s considered “old” but also fast. When I got on this app the menu part where it says all this info I could not move off the screen at all to use the app so I am stuck with it being to short and unable to move it. Leaving it as a 1 for now till I figure it out.

### 1/5 — No noise

*2026-03-13, version 10.4.164*

I couldn’t hear ANYTHING I tried putting the start bar thing to the 1 sec mark and nothing 1 star definitely looked good till this

*2026-01-02, version 10.4.157*

Your app is beautifully designed and blessings be upon you so long as you are not polytheists or enemies Of Jibriel/Gabriel The Angel.

### 5/5 — Powerful free DAW for iPhone

*2025-11-11*

I really love this app—it’s a free DAW for iPhone that actually feels complete. Most alternatives I found were either expensive or extremely limited, so this is a fantastic option. Even without any subscription or paid features, it’s enjoyable and functional.

It can be a bit finicky at times on iPhone, but that doesn’t take away from how good it is overall. I would love to see a more detailed tutorial that dives into each feature, as that would make it even more user-friendly. One thing that has been frustrating is the two buttons at the top of the piano roll—I couldn’t find any guidance on them in tutorials or official documentation.

Other than that, the app is excellent. Keep up the great work! I’m excited to see it continue to improve and evolve.

Edit: Please add a way to save settings either as defaults or just to keep them the same as the last time you used them. I find it extremely annoying to have to change my input every single time I use this app because it use Bluetooth headphones. You should also add on the in app purchases are that there is a permanent max upgrade and it’s not just a subscription. Keep doing what you are doing.😁
