It’s supposed to make sound FX, and while yess it does, I was most excited for the fact that you can record your own FX and stuff to use, and I want to be a content creator so I was pretty pumped. I shouldn’t have been so excited. I was completely unable to download anything at all and that has resulted in the device not ever being touched for the past two years. It’s a piece of junk in my eyes, I’m sry but that’s my opinion. ### 1/5 — I hate it so much. It’s the worst app I’ve ever played *2025-03-21, version 1.1* I hate when I try to get it to connect to my ipad and it doesn’t connect no matter what fix the problems ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥sincerely uwu56826 ### 1/5 — L *2024-11-11, version 1.1* IT DONT WORK ### 1/5 — Sucked *2024-09-26, version 1.1* It sucked whatever I did. It just wouldn’t connect. I tried like 500 different times, but it still won’t connect. ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE *2023-12-24, version 1.1* the device doesn’t connect at all no matter what i do, even when i charged it for 3 hours it still didn’t connect after… made really weird sounds you would hear in a cartoon… there is no way this is for music… it’s definitely a toy that connects to a “music app”… i’m an actual artist who makes music and this is not something you would make an actual song with that is well produced and actually sound good or anything… this whole app and the little toy that came with it is nothing someone would want to make an actual song… i would so much rather use bandlab rather than this… what a complete scam!! 😤😤 ### 2/5 — Tutorial doesn’t show movement of wrists/device *2023-12-27, version 1.1* It would be nice if the tutorials actually showed the movement of the wrists. It’s def not as simple as 1 would think. For instance, I’m punching but it’s not registering..pls update tutorials ### 3/5 — Would not really recommend.. *2025-01-12, version 1.1* Honestly it's good but a few problems. 1: The track thing is, uh.. kinda broken. 2: Isn't the music a lil weird? I mean. it's good but how was it produced? What made it? AI? 3: Yeah, you get the point. music is weird tracks import is broken and sounds like straight up distorted Miss Rachel music.. ### 3/5 — It was OK *2024-12-01, version 1.1* It’s very hard to connect the RUKUSfx PRO to your phone. although the game is very fun you have to take a lot of time to figure out how to play the games and how to work out the problems. And also you got a figure out a lot of time to be able to know how to work with the RuckusFX pro so that’s really it for me. I do not recommend it for small, small children because they might not know how to deal with this type of “toy”. If teenagers are interested, I think if you get the hang of it, you’ll be a very fine game to play with if you are really into beatboxing and DJing. Hope you find the RUKUSfx PRO to your liking. ### 3/5 — It won’t pair with the device 😭😭😭😭 *2024-07-15, version 1.1* After I viewed the videos and read the instructions, I was pretty excited to download the app, not until it won’t pair!!!!! I tired every single way, connect the Bluetooth hard reset it, but it still won’t connect!!! But anyways fun device to make music I recommend this music maker device, but it won’t pair up!😡😭 ### 4/5 — A buggy masterpiece *2025-04-20, version 1.1* So, the device works really well, HOWEVER, the app has NO SOUND, and cannot detect bpm, I know its not my device because I tried my phone and MacBook. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Rukus pro *2026-05-13, version 1.1* It’s hard to connect your phone to the rukus pro ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-06-19, version 1.1* Amazing game the game is so good and the game has no ads ### 5/5 — Review *2024-02-10, version 1.1* This game is a five star because it’s so fun and easy to learn ### 5/5 — Super fun music mixer, easy to use *2023-09-18, version 1.0* Love this handheld music mixer and app! It was easy to connect the RUKUSfx Pro device to the app and make cool beats. There are a lot of features but it was easy to navigate. I was even able to download my own favorite songs. The two games are also fun! ### 5/5 — Music studio that moves. *2023-09-14, version 1.0* Solid app and solid product. I can easily make my own music using the tracks and tools in RUKUSFX pro. Using the device is fluid and seamless with the app. Pairs almost instantly. I love the beat snap feature as it allows even the musically challenged as myself to make great sounding music. Very innovative and unlike anything else I’ve seen. ### 5/5 — Rukusfx Pro *2023-09-14, version 1.0* “This was a great purchase, my son is having a blast with it! We both love music and he loves sharing what he creates with it with me! I feel like it is bring out his true musical talents! ### 4/5 — Review *2025-02-15, version 1.1* Decent with the app but the connection issues could be fixed a little bit. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
