### 1/5 — Refund

*2026-04-14, version 1.1.4*

Could not sample downloaded songs from Apple Music

### 4/5 — Mejorable pero divertida

*2024-12-31*

Pondré 5 starts cuando se puedan hacer cosas como en Loopy Pro, como mover las pistas fácilmente, o deshacer acciones… prometo volver y darle 5 estrellas que es lo que se merecerá entonces.

### 5/5 — Absolutely Awesome!!!

*2024-03-12*

I love your sample, with its built in sequencer...I wouldn't mind paying for further development of it-say, with the ability to have more surfaces to record onto, and perhaps to release/quick end the sample playing with removal of touch, instead of it running its full length/coarse with a press-maybe velocity sensitivity (volume up down individually depending on where in the square you touch ,and holds raise and lower the performance volumes etc..?) ultimately, if you could incorporate a sampler keyboard/a layover or keyboard buttons instead of blocks, and the ability to multi-sample one sound according to a scheme or design such as lowering raising pitch etc... There's a thorough lack of decent samplers on the store which can sample both externally and internally any sound, then creating a user scheme with the chosen sound and sample slices etc... It would be easily worth quite a bit more especially nowadays with Apple Music software and music creation software, synths, and especially in the area of tools developed with a high usability for diverse music creation purposes according to user end input and self implementation/tailoring for whatever a musician might think of using tools such as these...

### 2/5 — Nice But????

*2024-02-04, version 1.1.4*

We need the ability to chop samples and also stem separation time shift and pitch bend

### 2/5 — Impossible de nommer les d’amples

*2023-04-08*

Juste rédhibitoire 
Une fonction juste de base qui manque cruellement

### 5/5 — Broken - Lost All Work

*2021-01-29, version 1.1.4*

Samplebot no longer runs on my iPad Pro. It shuts down as soon as it tries to initialize. I have lost a whole slew of one of a kind samples and a song I can never get back. My advice (if your copy is working), is to get your project out of Samplebot as soon as you can, or you might lose everything. Not only have I lost all my work, but the program no longer works. Yes I’m running the latest ios, blah, blah, blah. Seriously bummed! 
I changed the rating on this app because I actually really like the app, it’s just that I lost all my work. I had a similar experience with another app recently, so it makes me think it has more to do with updates on the iPad and glitches rather than the app itself.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2021-01-28, version 1.1.4*

I really like the simplicity and functionality of this awesome app.

### 4/5 — Very good app

*2020-12-15*

Очень крутая прога за разумные деньги, но катастрофически не хватает возможности отключения одной или нескольких дорожек при прослушивании трека, ведь это такая функция, без которой просто невозможно обойтись!!!
Уважаемый разработчик, не забрасывайте программу, у неё огромный потенциал и есть куда развивать! RUS

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2020-05-08, version 1.1.4*

This is the greatest app of all time! So fun and easy to create and so much extra functionality. Also very fun to annoy your family with. Or make music whatever you like ;)

### 5/5 — Excellent Sample pad app

*2020-02-11, version 1.1.4*

This is one of those “does what is say on the tin” apps where straight of the box works with no fuss.

Suggestion:

Sample Edit
Double sample (Double tapping sample with 2 fingers)
This would make a copy of itself and double the size of the sample for longer play time live.  Doing it again would also double etc..

This update from Apple will improve the functionality of this app. No new features are included.

- Fixed issue with input channel selection for multi-channel inputs
- Fixed some MIDI control issues related to PC messages and to double tap/hold
- Fixed an issue where tapping two track edit buttons simulaneously caused display problems

### 1.1.3 — 2018-03-01

Fixed an audio engine bug that caused some other apps to glitch/freeze on startup

### 1.1.2 — 2018-02-20

Added support for Ableton Link Start Stop Sync: Now, hitting play in Samplebot will start your other connected apps and devices too (and vice versa!), if they support Start Stop Sync. Wicked cool.

### 1.1.1 — 2018-02-15

Fixed a playback glitch when triggering playback with velocity from a MIDI controller.

Other changes from 1.1:

1. Now you can import audio from iCloud, Dropbox and other cloud services, from the Clipboard, or from your music library - and you can manage your sounds from right within Samplebot.
2. Adjust the playback speed and pitch of your tracks from the track editor, and export your track audio for use elsewhere.
3. Sync with other apps using Ableton Link. Great for use with Audiobus!

Have fun!
