### 3/5 — Would be better if…

*2021-10-03*

It’s basic but that’s not a bad thing, too many of the lyric writing apps are over crowded with features like rhyming dictionaries, quotes, thesaurus’, etc… this app doesn’t go over board with that stuff and the multi track recorder is great… or it would be if it could connect to headphones rather than only using the devises speakers for play back. Please sort this out SP.

### 4/5 — Good but to many ads

*2017-11-15*

Put. Less  ads on

### 2/5 — ,, allo ?

*2017-03-10*

On dirait que c'est le désert par ici...
Ça part d'une bonne idée ms encore insuffisant surtout avec l'expansion du split screen sur ios et d'app multipiste diverses plus complètes.

### 1/5 — I hope I didn't pay for this app!

*2016-12-01*

I bought 3 diff multitrack apps at the same time and this was the worst one-  one of them was free and I hope it was this one because it's really a single track and the second portion is only a pay for beat. It's a monthly recurring charge which is definitely not worth the investment - I like the MTSR recorder but it keeps losing its sync- anybody else find a good multi recording app that doesn't have a monthly fee?

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2016-09-29, version 1.6*

I purchased a beat that never downloaded. The money was taken from my account. This app is trash. What a waste of money.

### 1/5 — SP Multitrack Review

*2016-09-23*

I'am very disappointed in this App it could be a wonderful program. I bought many Beats and there gone ,I wrote to support with no reply. Also the only beats available are hip hop and a few pop , no Rock or Country. I continue to pay my Monthly fee only hopping things might Change.

### 1/5 — 💩

*2016-07-05, version 1.6*

You have to pay for mostly everything

### 4/5 — Beats

*2016-05-18*

So I tried buying a few beats (that I had payed for) and I got an email saying that I had bought them, but in the app they don't show up. And I tried purchasing them again and it says I could get it for free because I had already purchased it, but it keeps coming up with error and I don't know why :(

### 1/5 — Doesn't work on iPad Pro

*2016-03-19*

I downloaded and installed SPMulti Track last Sat. It would only open twice then crashed out of the four or five times I tried the FREE version.
Then I tried to upgrade and get rid of the ads to see if that would work.. It didn't..
It doesn't open at all even after deleting and reinstalling several times.
I submitted a report to support asking for my money back 5 days ago and haven't heard a thing back.
Don't waste your money!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2016-03-18*

Terrible! I can't do anything on here! I can not scroll down to finish writing my songs, What is with the fact that you need internet connection to do anything total waist of money!😡👿👺
I can't get any beats for my songs! All I WANT IS TO SING! And I can't!!!
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😡😡😡😡😡😡

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2016-03-15, version 1.4*

This app works great. I don't mind the ads, they don't really get in the way, be glad that they are providing a free version of this, very useful to song writers. The app itself is well-developed, haven't run into any issues. I want to give give 5 stars, but please include a way to import music from the cloud, I honestly don't care what service you add as an option (Dropbox, Google drive, iCloud). I can already download music on my iPad, or if someone makes me beat and send it... even if they were on a zip (using a file manager like Documents). If I'm away from my computer I should be able to load that track. Even if I was close to my desktop, I wouldn't want to go through iTunes. If you add that option I would buy the full version and give 5 stars on this one. It will make it more useful.

### 1/5 — Crap

*2016-03-08, version 1.4*

Used the app for three minutes and deleted it.

### 1/5 — Awful!

*2016-02-12*

This is pants.

### 1/5 — ADDS!!!!!

*2016-01-17, version 1.4*

This app would be great but Everytime I try to click on the beats an add keeps popping up so I can't get to it, fix the bugs on this app and I might download again,

### 2/5 — Cool idea, needs rethinking

*2015-12-19*

I was looking for something quick to do some vocal harmonies on. This didn't do the job. Tough user design, little hard to use; forced landscape mode which isn't too nice on an iPhone. My biggest issue though was that the developer restricted the most critical feature of this app -- the ability to record on a second track!
That was surprising given that the app already has ads popping up all over the place; not a pleasant experience and misleading given the name of the app says Multitrack. I will be deleting and looking for a better app. Sorry!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2015-11-15*

This is a cool idea but definitely could've been carried out better. You shouldn't have to buy everything in the free version and there is no tutorial. Defiantly a waste of time. I hate this app. It is horrible.

### 1/5 — CRASHES PLEASE FIX

*2015-10-11, version 1.3*

Spent countless time making a song on this app just for it to crash every time i hit export and not upload when i try and send it too soundcloud

### 3/5 — where are the instructions

*2015-10-10, version 1.3*

this looks like a good app but how does it work I'm having trouble with it

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Low marks for being deceitful, don’t feel bad, almost all apps in each of the appstores do this

*2021-07-31*

You developers are aware that people can easily tell when an apps reviews are genuine and when they’re fabricated to achieve a high rating, right?

### 1/5 — Let down

*2021-02-18*

They accidentally called this app SP multitrack, but that was a big mistake because they only give one track.

### 1/5 — Not the greatest

*2019-09-23*

I just got on the app and it just asked me to pay for bunch of things there was also commercials every 20 seconds very annoying I’m not trying to be rude but it’s not too great of an app I wouldn’t recommend it

### 1/5 — WHERE DO THE FILES GO?

*2019-08-16*

How do you save the files to a pc? How can i access them out of the crappy app? Updated to the latest ios and it wiped EVERYTHING! 3 years worth of songs, ideas and lyrics, should have recorded it on to a analogue dictaphone! Would have been safer! Crap app, dont trust it! Back up twice and cloud it too

Lost all my projects, 5 years worth, the previous review questioned this app and my doubts were proved right, pos thanks for nothing

### 1/5 — KILLS CREATIVITY, so... fail.

*2018-01-31*

Imagine here I’m sitting at jump out of my chair with excitement as an instrumental piece of music inspires me. Only to download this app and be unable to do actual multi track recording. All I wanted was a vocal and guitar. Two tracks. By the time I wrote this review and deleted the app the inspiration is gone, so basically for any musician this is a useless app. A monthly subscription is also quite absurd in 2018.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2018-01-21*

Can you please update this app? It keeps crashing while using due to the version being outdated for IOS’s latest update.

### 1/5 — Dam!! Don’t download it

*2017-11-06, version 1.6*

I just downloaded this app this week and try to buy a beat for $9.99 , and never be able to download until now what the heck !
I think this is cheating how can I get money back !!!!!??? So don’t be a victim like me !! If there are minus star ?

### 1/5 — Ridiculous

*2017-03-18*

You need to pay 6 to 10 pounds or dollars for one song I do not recommend do not buy ridiculous stupid out of order scammers who would pay that much for a blummin song out of order

### 1/5 — I KEEP READING THIS APP IS RIPPED OFF FROM OTHER APPS?

*2017-01-22, version 1.6*

As I stated I keep reading people saying that this App is a ripoff of other Apps?  Hey you bought it so three stars just for that and by the way EVERYONE the new GarageBand, they just added this into their App but times x10!!! So I don't see this app being around for long! Why use this App when you have everything included with so many other Apps!!! But whatever App you use, just keep writing music! I just bought a $800.00 Sony 4 track cassette recorder it sounds awesome, warm it has life. I'm so tired when all I do is update ProTools my mac my iPhone. I'm tired of updating Apps taking away from the time I actually have to spend writing music. I'm sure allot of people can relate to that?  These Apps were supposed to make it easier??? 
ANY SIMPLE RECORDING APP (WITH A METRONOME) A SHEET OF PAPER AND A PEN!!!
Hey dude remember when I was helping you with the App in the beginning you should have listen to me! I have a ton of digital software etc, also Recording at Paramount studio in LA on real to real. I'm an MI graduate, I've been playing since I was nine years old, band since I was 13!!! You had a good idea in the beginning but the app is useless. I've now erased it from my iPhone it could have been great!!! Could've should've would've…………

### 1/5 — Not good

### 5/5 — Laying down Tracks with Ease

*2018-11-19*

Was skeptical, tried upgrading, got access to 15 beats most of them hot! Able to spit my rhymes and background vocals on 3 tracks. Completing demos like crazy!

Just what the doctor ordered - keep up the good work.
