## What is Study Beats?

To any aspiring songwriters out there, or anyone with a creative itch and no outlet, let me introduce you to Study Beats.

One of the hardest parts of making music is finding the right instrumental to write to. And if you don’t produce music yourself, that can feel like a wall between your ideas and a finished song. That’s exactly why I made this app.

With a Study Beats subscription, you get 10 new tracks every week, each from a different genre. You don’t need any gear or experience. Just pick the one that inspires you, give your song a name, and start writing. When you're ready, record your vocals right in the app using just your phone and headphones.

The free version gives you clean reverb to make your takes sound good. But with Pro, you unlock the full vocal chain — compression, EQ, a doubler, de-esser — all the tools you need to get a polished sound without needing a studio. You can try Pro for free for 7 days and hear the difference yourself.

Genres include:

Hip Hop

Pop

R & B

Rap

Country

Rock

Acoustic

Dance

Reggae

P.S. Headphones are required to record — otherwise your mic will pick up the backing track.

You can also share your recordings straight from the app, or just use it to build your own private catalogue of songs.

So if you’ve got something to say — start writing.
Download Study Beats and get creating today.

Happy songwriting.

As of the latest release Study Beats now helps you learn how to sing!

### 5/5 — Glad I found it

*2025-05-01, version 16.2.1*

Such a cool app. So many tracks to make songs over and the effects make my voice sound good. If you don’t know how to make music but want to write songs and sing this is the app for you.

### 3/5 — Ok…

*2023-12-09, version 15.4*

It’s ok but you can’t add other sounds so you will need another app to produce you wonderful song

### 5/5 — With this new update..

*2022-09-05, version 15.1*

Changed the feel of the app completely. Not in a design sense but in the sense that I can hear myself clearer and in sync with the music. Which makes a big difference. Maybe more effects or slightly lower volumes for certain genres would be good. 

Thanks.

### 3/5 — Songs got erased

*2021-10-08*

I have used this app for years and didn’t have any issues. But one of the updates erased all the songs that I had and I can’t find them at all.

**Developer response:** Hi Jackson, if you still have the phone you made these songs on I’m working on a way for the app to find them and then give them to you. They get saved in your phones document directory so if you still have the device you made them on they will be there.

### 1/5 — Don’t recommend

*2020-04-27, version 12.34*

Terrible app doesn’t work do NOT get not worth it

### 2/5 — Unable to record

*2019-09-18*

Every time I try to record my song the app automatically closes out and will not let me record is there anyway this can be fixed

**Developer response:** Sorry for the delay in response. Is it a specific track that is crashing the app or just every-time you try to record with any track? Thanks.

### 3/5 — It's alright.

*2019-07-22*

It's ok but can you fix the delay when people  record their songs?

**Developer response:** Hi, can you be more specific. Is it when you’re recording you still feel there’s a delay? 

Or is it the delay effect within the app that you feel needs adjusting?

Thanks for your feedback.

### 4/5 — Overall satisfied

*2018-06-30*

I love everything about the concept! But there is a delay when recording only a second off but it sounds good during playback. After playing with it, I got the hang of it and created some awesome music! *(also the reggae was a tad disappointing 😶)lol but like I said once I played with it, I really had fun!

### 5/5 — Dope app

*2017-02-03, version 6.5*

I know this is marketed as a ap for revising but i've used it for lyric writing. I find the hardest part about writing songs is writing them to music and this app allows me to practice this. I do believe it really has helped me develop a style.
