### 1/5 — Crashed

*2021-02-26, version 1.2.5*

i downloaded it but everytime i tried to open the app it would crash on my macbook pro.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2021-02-24, version 1.2.5*

THought I would give it a try - dospite the review. And it crashes after a few seconds. 

Shame as its a clean design. 

Got to get this fixed asap.

### 1/5 — not happy

*2021-02-19, version 1.2.5*

Just downloaded. Crashed after 1 minute. reopened twice, kept crashing without ever opening. Just deleted

### 1/5 — Refuses to open

*2021-02-19, version 1.2.5*

Refuses to open for more than a second. I've deleted & redownloaded a dozen times.

### 1/5 — Crashes every time on M1 Macs

*2021-02-18, version 1.2.5*

I have tried using this software on both my Macbook Pro and my Mac Mini and it crashes every time. I can Start a project, but then before I can even think about recording, it crashes. Hopefully this gets updated soon. I doubt it as the last update was over 6 months ago.

### 1/5 — not working

*2021-02-12, version 1.2.5*

I just downloaded it, but it does not open

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2021-02-12, version 1.2.5*

I've tried re-installing it so many times, every time it opens it quits on its own and an error pops up.

Terribly disappointing. :(

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2021-02-02, version 1.2.5*

Please, don't waste your time downlowading. As soon as I opened the app for the first time, everything froze and shut down. I was NEVER again able to reopen the app. Still...

### 1/5 — Don't bother!

*2020-11-15, version 1.2.5*

It's very difficult to figure this out!  You don't have the ability to edit the track, so you best be prepared and spot on for your podcast. Including bumper and theme music is too complex and you have to have it ready in your iTunes account for easiest accessibility.  If you're like me and have a library of sound you want to use, but haven't edited the sound down to a seconds you want Podcast Studio doesn't allow you do this. You'll need to edit in a different program then import. 

All in all, I spent HOURS trying to figure this out. I'm canceling my subscription right now!

### 1/5 — so frustrating

*2020-11-10, version 1.2.5*

I absolutely do not recommend. Podcasting software should not be this difficult.

### 1/5 — It stopped working with a paid subscription

*2020-11-09, version 1.2.5*

It dosen't work! I stopped recognizing my mic and headphone.

### 1/5 — Waste or time and money

*2020-11-09, version 1.2.5*

The worse experiance ever for, too much to write about, just know the entire "thing" was horrible. i would not recommend at all.

### 1/5 — i cant do anything

*2020-10-18, version 1.2.5*

i oaid for the upgaded version and cant record a second recording very frustrsted

### 1/5 — Unsuited to my needs.

*2020-10-05, version 1.2.5*

I'm starting a one man podcast and this app is unhelpful.

It won't let me record piecemeal and the only way I can delete a bad take is to use reset which loses all the work. 

Would not reccomend.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2020-10-03, version 1.2.5*

Could not get this app to work. Connected my recoding devices to computer and selected them in options but the app kept saying that nothing was connected.

### 1/5 — frustrating

*2020-09-30, version 1.2.5*

It won't let me finish, or discard one recording and start a new one. At first it was great now it's really making me mad.

### 1/5 — Files never loaded

*2020-09-09, version 1.2.5*

I uploaded a couple audio files, one was really small the other was larger. The files never uploaded and were "uploading" for a ridiculously long time.

### 1/5 — waste of time

*2020-08-29, version 1.2.5*

Everytime I try to start recording the spin will pop up making everything freeze. I have no other apps opened and I'm woring on the New MacPro. Disappointing

### 1/5 — IT DELETED MY HOUR LONG RECORDING

*2024-10-13, version 3.0.1*

Horrible app, I spent an hour recording for it to crash (which happened several times) and DELETED MY WHOLE PODCAST EPISODE. JUST HORRIBLE, DO NOT USE THIS APP

### 1/5 — Love the UI and how it should work, but…

*2024-05-07, version 3.0.1*

My test recordings aren’t loading once I stop the recording so I can’t get to the next stage!, very frustrating because if the app worked I’d be excited to use it as my go to for recording episodes. The features seem really cool!

### 1/5 — keeps crashing

*2022-04-05*

Just keeps crashing all the time.

### 1/5 — Do Not Bother

*2021-12-16, version 2.0.2*

This app has not worked a single minute it has been on my desktop; the mic and headphones work great outside the app but it crashes every single time. I have an updated Macbook and everything. Save yoursef the trouble by not even downloading.

### 1/5 — paid for the month and...

*2021-08-17, version 2.0.2*

the problems never stopped. 
All things that resulted in a crash:
hit record
invited a guest
paused recording
reset podcast episode
zoom in/out
exporting

also many features do not work. 
This app should not be aloud to have a subscription until it is fixed

### 1/5 — Kept Crashing

*2021-06-28, version 2.0.2*

Deleted it, just keept crashing

### 1/5 — Useless

*2021-06-11, version 2.0.2*

Can't even import my audio

### 1/5 — Recording is easy but...

*2021-04-12, version 2.0.1*

I could not get this app off my MAC fast enough!  This app will not allow you to edit AT ALL.  The help section is not helpful at all and the file extension will not allow you to convert the file.  Way too many issues to name off.  Save yourself the hassle and use something else!

### 1/5 — Simply Doesn't Work

*2021-03-30, version 2.0.0*

I was really excited at the simplicity of the program.  However, after I upgraded to the Silver Level subscription, it stopped working.  I couldn't hear my background music as I was recording.  The software kept crashing and I had to force quit.  

Definitely not worth it.  I cancelled 3 hours after purchase.

### 1/5 — What a piece of garbage

*2021-03-19, version 2.0.0*

Trying to get started. Nothing is intuitive. Keeps crashing upon open. Also downloaded the Remote app for participants. Can't get through the very first step of creating a profile before it crashes. Repeatedly. Glad I haven't spent any money.

### 5/5 — Fast customer service

*2021-12-13, version 2.0.2*

The app is very easy to use and the ability to add music was great. I had an issue but was able to reach out to customer service and was really fast to asisst and fix the issue.

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2020-04-17, version 1.2.2*

I've toyed with the idea of doing my own podcast for a bit, and never got around to it. This application makes it so easy that I've finally recorded my first cast. The remote app is going to really come in handy for bringing on guests. So far I like this a lot!

### 5/5 — Podcast Studio is the best!

*2020-03-31, version 1.2.2*

I've been making Podcasts before and the software I was using was good, but a bit cumbersome.  This one is all there, easy to use, intuitive, and worth giving it a chance.  Some items are in the menus, some on screen up front.  Works well and I am a fan for sure.  Thanks for a great software!

### 4/5 — First time user; first time podcaster.

*2022-12-19, version 3.0.0*

Easy to use. Took me only a couple of tries to get it right. I like it.

### 4/5 — It's cool but...

*2020-04-08, version 1.2.2*

I really like this app for recording podcasts, and even purchased the bronze subscription, but since purchasing, whenever I open the app to try to record it tells me my trial subscription is expired and doesn't acknowledge the new subscription. Might have to cancel the subscription.

### 4/5 — So far so good.

*2020-02-07, version 1.2.0*

The app is churning along recording quality audio right off my built in mics on my MacBook Pro. Back to work!

### 3/5 — A little behind..

*2019-09-23, version 1.0.3*

This app is absolutely the kind of thing the Mac needs but it isn't perfect. Their subscription model is arguably cheaper than other competing services (such as Zencastr) but at the same time they're behind on a few areas. The key one to note: remote recording doesn't appear to allow allow Mac -> Mac/PC. Remote participants *need* to use the iOS app as of right now, which (frankly) is nuts. Respectfully, it baffles me that this isn't cross platform in that regard. If they make it so, perhaps I'll switch, but until then this needs work to bring it up to par.

I haven't been able to test their audio processing (purely because all my podcast hosts are remote; see point one) so I can't comment on that. In the later Catalina beta's the import track function also seems to fail with the track itself just "importing" constantly, but thats not necessarily the fault of the devs. I'm using an OS that isn't in official release.

I like the look of this, and I love the idea. One place to do everything. IMO, they need to fix the remote application issue to allow non-iOS users that functionality and they should ensure their post-production is of absolute high quality.

### 2/5 — Cannot get skip to work!

*2020-04-30, version 1.2.3*

I'm so frustrated!  I thought this was going to be a lifesaver, but I'm spending so much unnecessary time trying to fix issues.  The main one is:  I finish a recording and need to edit the beginning and delete the first few seconds and I used "skip" function but when I play it back, it keeps on playing the skip portion!!
