### 4/5 — Great soundscapes!

*2026-07-18, version 1.35.0*

I really like this app. I especially like the triangle volume/ambience controller.

### 3/5 — Not sure

*2026-07-12, version 1.34.2*

Whenever I open the app it says I need a universe but see no option to create one.

### 4/5 — Great app but struggling on iPad

*2025-08-31, version 1.13.0*

Really like the app but I’m struggling to get it to recognise my subscription on my iPad, my iPhone is fine though. Any help on getting my sub on the iPad would be much appreciated, other than that I love it!

### 3/5 — Didn’t work?

*2025-05-27, version 1.12.0*

Didn’t seem to work, locations were blank, play button did nothing. Probably user error, but that in itself means a problem with design. If the app requires a subscription to function, that is a problem when someone wants to demo (not trial) the app. Would recommend a functional limited demo with no requirement to pay first if that’s the case. Free trial = payment; that is not a demo.

### 4/5 — Images included more

*2024-06-08, version 1.1.2*

Great if you can’t find anything good on YouTube, but there is still a limited amount of music and doesn’t have everything that the images they show do. Maybe there is a specific way to get the other sounds but I can’t find it.

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2024-05-23, version 1.0.7*

Really cool and intuitive, can’t wait to see what it’s like once more sounds are added!

### 5/5 — Wow

*2024-04-17*

Hätte es echt nicht erwartet aber ist echt super. Sehr empfehlenswert für dnd.

### 5/5 — Incredibly Cool

*2024-04-02, version 1.0.4*

I never write reviews but this is truly such a cool app, that I can only see getting better!

### 5/5 — Would pay for this app

*2024-03-23, version 1.0.4*

I like this. If a subscription model between $2-$5 a month would help with development expansion the features of this app I would gladly pay.

### 5/5 — This thing is awesome.

*2024-03-17, version 1.0.4*

Player and DM her for 14 years. This is absolutely perfect. I can’t wait to see what new content comes up for this.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — “no universe available”

*2026-07-03, version 1.34.2*

App opens, tells me there is no universe available and asks me to update. I click update, the prompt closes, and does nothing.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t seem to work at all

*2026-06-21*

For me, the app didn’t work at all. Both iPhone and iPad show “No Universe Available” but I don’t see how to select or add one. Am I missing something?

### 1/5 — Just doesn’t work

*2026-03-18, version 1.30.0*

After downloading the app and content packs, the app doesn’t do the one thing it’s made to do, which is play audio.

### 1/5 — App does not play nice with other audio

*2026-01-26, version 1.26.1*

Saw some ads, took a look for a phone app soundboard that was DnD themed. Couldn’t get any audio to play at all from the app. 

At first believed this may be an app bug. I tried clearing everything away and then attempted again: this time was successful in audio playing. HOWEVER, my need is to have a fantasy styled soundboard I can play behind my decade+ curated music for my DnD sessions. This app completely breaks if another audio app of my kind gets used.

For someone new or not picky, this does fine I guess? I would recommend PocketBard over this though for a free user.

### 1/5 — Either user error (bad if not explained) or bugged app

*2026-01-20*

Saw some ads, took a look for a phone app soundboard that was DnD themed. Couldn’t get any audio to play at all from the app. Nothing in the tutorial suggested something else needed to be done. If some other action was needed, this isn’t made clear at all. The top said now playing, but no actual audio was being registered from the phone as being played from the app.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-11-29, version 1.25.4*

No sound is coming out when I use it.

### 1/5 — Is there an update?

*2024-09-20, version 1.1.8*

Unsure if there’s an update I missed, or perhaps in the works but, the music and sound only work intermittently. I did a test play before our game and it worked fine. Went to use it for the the game and was sorely disappointed. I did the usual, checked the Bluetooth connection, turned on and off all devices, I even deleted and re-downloaded the Table Tone app. It still will NOT play! I would really like to use this for our game.

### 2/5 — Good when it works

*2026-07-05, version 1.34.2*

I haven't used the app since my last update. When I did use it I thought it was great! Made my games more exciting for my players. Unfortunately I've got a problem where the app essentially reset and is asking me to select a universe when I boot it up. It proceeds to not show any universes! I'm kinda sad cause I was looking forward to using the app tonight for my weekly session but I can't.

### 2/5 — Toller Kern, verwirrende und buggy UI

*2026-01-28*

Die Idee hinter der App ist sehr cool und sie bietet auch viel Potential. Aber leider ist die Umsetzung selbst leider bestens mittelmäßig. Die App ist unübersichtlich, und selbst auf einem aktuellen iPad Pro laggy. Ich weiß nicht, warum so viel spezielle UI gebaut wurde anstatt sich auf die Kernfunktionalität zu konzentrieren und eine Standard UI zu bauen die wenigstens gut funktioniert.

Leider bleibt das Angebot so weit hinter dem beworbenen zurück.

**Developer response:** Hey, sorry zu hören dass du keine gute Erfahrung gemacht hast und das UI bzw die UX nicht überzeugt haben. Möchtest du teilen was dich stark gestört hat (neben den lags, die wir mittlerweile sicher ausgebügelt haben)?
Danke für dein Feedback 
Dein TableTone Team

### 2/5 — App doesn’t work without payment

*2025-10-16, version 1.21.3*

I downloaded this app as I run my own homebrew campaign and wanted to play sounds/music without getting ads. I was throughly disappointed when I opened the app and the interface doesn’t work. Like nothing plays, despite clicking multiple buttons and settings. The only interface that seems workable is the “start trial” which isn’t a trial because you have to pay for it. This app would be massively improved if there was a limited, free version. Don’t be fooled by the “free” advertising.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2026-07-27, version 1.35.1*

Good for setting the mood. Perfect for describing actions and interactions. The players would often get worried and alert when I would suddenly change the mood to dark and suspicious when entering a cave. Works also very well for when going on a hike for some music 👍

### 5/5 — Tip Tabletop

*2026-01-25*

Sehr coole Idee mit richtig viel Potenzial. Bitte dranbleiben und weiterentwickeln!!!

### 5/5 — Amazingly produced ambience!

*2026-01-21, version 1.26.1*

The packages of music, sounds, and ambience sound perfect for pretty much all the generic scenes I have in my campaigns! I’d have to say some of them are silly though like the zombie noises and screams, but the rest genuinely scratch that tension uneasy feeling for scary ambiences and the happy wholesome ambiences don’t annoy me like other happy ambiences I’ve encountered! 

Can’t wait for more samples!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-12-08, version 1.26.1*

Very easy to use, just needs to be set up

### 5/5 — So underrated!!

*2025-08-12, version 1.13.0*

I haven’t payed a dime and this app is so amazing and useful, there is so much free content and you get to control every aspect of the audio! You get to control the tone, the location, and the ambiance aside from music. There are even a few awesome sound effects. What I love most is how cleanly it transitions from different sounds. I WILL be using this in my DnD campaign. Absolutely phenomenal!

### 5/5 — App Rocks

*2025-05-27, version 1.12.0*

Thanks to Bob (the worldbuilder!) for the suggestion, use this in my games now and love it

### 5/5 — Grüße von Spiel Messe Essen

*2024-10-08*

Hat mich gefreut, Euch kennen zu lernen! 
Habe auf der Messe meinen Ohren kaum getraut! 
Topp Sound!
Bin gespannt wie der Einsatz bei den Spielabenden sein wird.
Macht weiter so!

### 5/5 — Game changer

*2024-07-26, version 1.1.8*

I always WANT to do sound in my game but it’s been such a pain because there’s so much that happens and it takes so much effort to find all the different things. This app changed all that. There is so much room for adapting to situations and environments with such a simple interface. It made my game soooo much better and immersive. I’ll be using this app all the time.

### 5/5 — Exceptionnel

*2024-07-20, version 1.1.3*

Super app le son est de qualité et les transitions sont propres

### 5/5 — Great app for TTRPG immersion!

*2024-05-26, version 1.0.7*

I have constantly been searching for apps to use to play sounds and music during my TTRPG games.  This app makes it so easy to adapt to the game when it goes sideways from what you are expecting.  And let’s be honest, it ALWAYS goes sideways.  The intuitive controls to let you seamlessly switch from location and mood is what makes this stand out.  No searching playlists and trying to find the perfect sound, just one or two button pushes and you’re done!  I highly recommend!!
