Tape It - Pro Audio Recorder

Tape It now records in higher quality in the standard (AAC) format: 256 kbit/s in stereo and 128 kbit/s in mono, twice the previous bit rate. New recordings take up about 1 to 2 MB per minute. Lossless recording is unchanged. Recording from a USB audio interface at a sample rate above 48 kHz no longer fails when AAC is selected. AAC only goes up to 48 kHz, so choosing a higher sample rate now switches to lossless. Imported files above 48 kHz are saved lossless as well. With repeat on, a tape now keeps looping while you edit it, for example while you type its notes. On a trimmed tape, dragging the playhead past the end marker now plays the trimmed end, just like dragging it before the start marker plays the trimmed start, instead of skipping to the next tape. Exporting a long tape as MP3 is now several times faster. On iOS 26, MP3 and WAV exports also keep going when you lock your phone or switch to another app. While exporting, the Share button shows the progress, and VoiceOver reads it out. Tap the progress circle to stop the export. If an export is still interrupted, Tape It now tells you why. USB-C EarPods and USB-C headphone adapters, such as Belkin's, are now treated as headphones instead of a USB audio interface: you can choose between the headset mic and the iPhone mic, just like with Lightning EarPods. Tape It now shows your stereo setting for the built-in mics right away when it opens, instead of showing mono for a few seconds. USB audio interfaces now keep their selected input channels and sample rate when you reopen Tape It or reconnect them. If a recording can't use your saved settings, for example stereo or an interface's channels or sample rate, Tape It still starts it with what works and tells you what changed. With the Bluetooth mic turned on, the record screen now shows the Bluetooth device you'll record with, instead of the built-in mics. Your stereo and lossless choices are now kept if your subscription ends, and come back when you subscribe again. Apart from that, this update improves the stability of the app.
