### 2/5 — No la recomiendo

*2020-04-10, version 1.6*

No me ha gustado ni el diseño, ni cómo funciona. La verdad, dinero tirado a la basura

### 1/5 — A Shame ...

*2019-11-05, version 1.6*

Just bought the app for my iPad Pro and can’t even run it because there are unwanted sounds coming out from it. I Aldo tried to sing, but what comes out doesn’t looks Linke the melody I sung.
And Thérèse is NO WAY to contact the designers for help ... Just got ripped from my money,  feels very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Can I get a refund?

*2018-12-02, version 1.6*

The app aims to transform your voice into various instruments. The concept behind the app is incredible but the app is incomplete and should not even be sold on the App Store yet. It needs a better design and needs to be tested and developed further to get rid of all the glitches. It’s really difficult to use and it’s not intuitive at all. To the developer behind this app, please invest more time and money in this app or sell the concept to a company that can do the app justice. I truly believe this app has so much potential, it just needs way way way more work.

### 1/5 — Clunky

*2018-10-07, version 1.6*

Downloaded on my iPad and got the cello and the violin, the app doesn’t register that I bought them so I can not use them on my phone.

### 1/5 — Headphone Only ?

*2017-12-02, version 1.5*

iPhone XでLitning端子経由で使えないようです、Bluetoothも同様。
ヘッドホンを激しく推奨していますが、イヤホン端子があるレガシーなiPhoneじゃないとダメ？

### 1/5 — Nul

*2017-08-19, version 1.5*

Pas du tout ce qui est attendu

### 1/5 — 残念…

*2017-01-26, version 1.5*

これから良くなって行くのでしょう。

### 4/5 — Nette Spielerei

*2016-12-04, version 1.4*

Ein bisschen experimentieren und sich überraschen lassen. Der ein oder andere Song wird gelingen.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2016-11-25, version 1.4*

Very bad

### 1/5 — Absolute garbage! Save your money!

*2016-11-22, version 1.4*

The developers should be ashamed of themselves. It deletes purchases every time I close the app and freezes when I do pretty much anything. It could be the worst app ever made.

### 1/5 — I want a refund

*2016-11-21, version 1.4*

I want a refund

### 2/5 — Bug à corriger rapidement !!!

*2016-08-19, version 1.4*

Ce concept avait tout me séduire... Mais voilà ! Impossible de faire un morceau puisque l'application bugghe !!!
Elle se fige alors que je souhaite effacer l'essai que j'ai fait... Du coup impossible de faire quoi que ce soit ! Un comble pour une appli payante... Donc je ne prendrais pas d'instruments supplémentaires dans ces conditions !

### 1/5 — Basura

*2016-06-25, version 1.4*

Creo que no he visto peor aplicación en mi vida, diseño peor imposible, mal funcionamiento y descuelgues cada vez que entras...

### 1/5 — Not working for me

*2016-05-27, version 1.4*

App freezes on front screen.  I have downloaded twice on an iPhone 5s on fairly recent software.  No headset but according to app not necessary?  Will change review if fixed

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2016-04-17, version 1.4*

Hangs all the time and crashes. Latency makes its useless. Voice recognition is pretty useless too. A big disappointment.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2025-08-29, version 1.8*

Shocking and awful 
Waste of money

### 1/5 — Blatant false advertising

*2025-04-25, version 1.8*

You can’t record anything, this is only a play along with your library scenario. Utterly useless and not what is advertised. I’d ask for a refund but pretty sure it will be more pain than it’s worth. Probably what the scammer devs are relying on. If you don’t mind losing a few bucks to waste your time and feed these scammers, go right ahead. You’ve been warned.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all

*2024-03-08, version 1.8*

Doesn’t record, only converts voice to instruments live so you can’t layer instruments. Broken waste of money 🤷🏻‍♀️ I now have very disappointed kids.

### 1/5 — 환불되나요;; 어플이 작동을 안하네요;;;

*2023-07-01, version 1.6*

어이없는.. 유료인데 뭐 이런..

### 1/5 — I LOVE this but it needs to work better

*2022-07-14, version 1.6*

I love the concept I guess I’m trying to say. Hope you reinvest in it with the money you make. Needs tweaking, and more functionality. Been wishing garageband would do something like this for a long time.This will really be big if you can perfect it….which I’m sure you can… Just a matter of money and time I guess …someone will eventually do it if you don’t. … wish I could use it with or send it to GarageBand… that would be my first functionality request…

I originally gave this 4 stars but have since discovered the email function doesn’t work and I can’t find anywhere to report this problem or find anyone to help with this problem … so I’m hoping the developer will leave me a message here on how to resolve this problem

### 1/5 — Should be able to do more.

*2021-05-21, version 1.6*

I would really like to be able to run a wav file through this app. Kind of pointless to re-sing something I’ve already sung if I don’t want to. Also what’s taking so long with either this app improving or competition coming out that has the same function? I first got the app in like early 2015 and the whole thing is dead in the water why is that?! I don’t have allot of money and this could really save me allot of time in some areas. Seriously, what’s the hold up?! Sometimes I feel that tech like this gets held back for some reason the general public is unaware of. Seriously, nobody wants to make any money on this concept?! It’s been like five years! This should be way more than what it is. That’s the truth.

### 1/5 — Bring die App in Ordnung!

*2021-05-18, version 1.6*

Ich hoffe, ihr übersetzt meine Bewertung. Ich bin stinksauer, dass sich hier nicht um regelmäßige Updates gekümmert wird. Momentan funktioniert die App überhaupt nicht mehr. Ich habe aber jede Menge Instrumente gekauft um damit zu arbeiten. Wenn ihr hier keine Updates verwendet, dann gebt mir gefälligst mein Geld wieder! Letztes Update vor zwei Jahren. Das ist eine Frechheit!!

Update: Ich will mein Geld wieder!!

### 1/5 — Pas terrible

*2021-01-31, version 1.6*

Je m’entendais à mieux très déçus un achat fait pour rien dégoûter je ne la recommanderais pas !!! Vous me rembourser ?????

### 1/5 — Facilite

*2020-09-09, version 1.6*

I bought the Magic Chords synthesizer and it didn't install. and it no longer allows me to make another purchase, what can I do?

### 1/5 — Trash

*2020-04-15, version 1.6*

Trash, trash, trash

### 5/5 — BRING IT BACK

*2025-05-01, version 1.8*

Omg, I loved this app when I was 14 and now I'm 32. I wish it was still a thing!!

### 5/5 — Awesome !

*2023-12-22, version 1.8*

This app is really amazing.
Great job !

### 5/5 — おもしろい

*2022-11-02, version 1.6*

更新止まってるアプリだから不安だったけど機能としては使える（XR民）
大声で歌える環境のある人なら使いこなせそう
保存はmp3だけ
480円ぐらいの価値はある

### 5/5 — Great fun

*2022-05-11, version 1.6*

Pay no attention to the other review.. this app is great fun.. you probably aren’t going to use it to create a masterpiece or anything.. but it’s fun to play around with and does what it says pretty well.

### 5/5 — Compré mi primer iphone en 2009 por esta aplicación

*2017-09-20, version 1.5*

Sencillamente genial, no hay mucho más que decir, evidentemente los sonidos no son perfectos, ni mucho menos, pero no es su función, no vas a grabar un disco con ella, pero si componer, y en eso es insuperable. 

P.s.: gracias por actualizarla a 64 bits. Un detallazo

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2015-05-29, version 1.4*

So I have a band and this makes it so much easier because I do not have a recording g studio 
And also if you know how to play guitar you can just play in real life 

So BEST APP EVER!!!

### 5/5 — iOS 8

*2014-10-01, version 1.4*
