Enabling wireless headphones would greatly increase the users experience considering most phones don’t offer wired headphones any longer especially Apple phones ### 4/5 — Good but it’s missing one thing *2018-02-22* I really like this app and all the features has to offer. It’s one of the best looping audio apps I’ve ever used and it’s definitely worth the money. But one thing I am particularly confused about is why you can’t import audio from this app to GarageBand. I use GarageBand sometimes for making music but it’s not good for looping. A feature for importing audio clips from this app to Garage Band is the only thing this app is missing for me. Otherwise I’d recommend thing app. ### 3/5 — Wireless problem *2017-03-05* The app is lacking a wireless headphone update. With the new iPhones you can't use the app properly. ### 2/5 — Disappointed! *2016-09-05* Waste of money.... Don't buy it, you can do the same looping and over laying with other apps that are way easier and free to work with. ### 4/5 — Crackly sounding iPhone 6s *2016-08-03, version 1.3.50* I had this on my 5s and loved it! However on my 6s it plays back with crackly sounds . Need to update? ### 2/5 — Almost Awesome *2016-04-06, version 1.3.50* This app is a super cool concept and almost a good execution. You definitely can’t skip the tutorial to figure it out and you may have to do it a couple more times until you get it (still not entirely sure I know what all you can do on the thing). I do have some COMPLAINTS/ SUGGESTIONS that i think would improve the app though. 1. Bar Count Selector/Metronome/Count In: As is, the app is great for creating weird voice recordings and laying vocals, however, it is not that great for layering instruments because you have to use your hands to start/stop recording. When you have to hit record on the phone, then play guitar, then stop playing to hit the stop recording button, it creates a pretty ugly silent period in the song and does not loop well. One way to fix this would be to be able to have a countdown at the beginning and a way to cut the silent part of the loop off at the end of the recording once you finish recording. A BETTER way to fix it though (which I think would make the app waaaaaay more desirable/be taken more seriously by serious musicians) would be to have a built in metronome that you can hear but that does not get recorded, a way to choose your tempo, and a way to choose the number of bars (1,2,3,4s) that you would want in each “orb” (similar to the “2x” button….If you had this OPTION, you would be able to fool around and have fun on the app with vocals and all like you can now OR you could try to make a more serious recording. It would also be HUGE for songwriter to be able to play their chord progressions, put them loop, and then fool around on the guitar to find a good picking pattern that goes with the chord progression. It would help solo artist be able to kind of have a one man band. 2. Play Multiple Orbs at Once: After going through the tutorial, i think that there is a way to listen to one recording and record on another orb without recording them on the same track. That being said, it seems like, in order to listen to them both at once, you have to combine them eventually (?). It seems very complicated. I wish that for each orb, you could either record or just play it and that they could stay separate. Seems like that would be an easy thing add. 3. More Sonic Effects: ones for voice, guitar, etc. 4. Simplified Interface: more elegant, less distracting background, easier to see buttons, easier to understand what you are doing, label the orbs 5. Better Undo Button: Be able to see a list of like the past few things you did and then select which one you want to undo 6. Drum Pad: this one is a long shot, but a built in drum pad would take this thing to next level (especially if you had the option to record your own sounds) 7. Collaborate with Garageband: don’t know if this would be possible, but if this app on iPhone and garageband on MacBook could kind of be one with each other and you recorded using both, that would be pretty cool. With some work I really think that this app could be one of the best to record music with on the whole App Store. While Garageband for iPhone does have a lot of features and does more than VoiceJam will probably ever do, I personally feel that there are too many features for such a small device and think that, with some changes, VoiceJam would be a more fun, more creative, and easier way to record music. And honestly, it could maybe even rival some of the expensive equipment that many artist’s use for performances that feature looping. This app is so close to being so so awesome. Thanks for making it! ### 2/5 — why doesn't it work anymore?? *2016-04-02, version 1.3.50* I had this app on my iPhone 5 and I loved it so much! I upgraded to a 6s and now the recording plays back in horrible quality! please update so I can use your app again!!! ### 1/5 — No good at all *2016-02-25* Basic. There are better apps out there. I spent money on something i never use. I want my money back ### 4/5 — Great app *2015-12-03, version 1.3.50* Great creative app ### 3/5 — Want it to work!! *2015-12-03, version 1.3.50* I love this app so much. Used it on my old iPhone 4s. Upgraded to a 6s and downloaded the app to the new phone but every time I record it always plays back crackly. Is this common? I checked to see if it was my phone. When recording sound through other apps the playback sound quality is crystal clear. Why Voice Jam, why? You're so awesome. How do we make it work? Please! ### 3/5 — Needs update *2015-09-16, version 1.3.50* Please fix the time length to unlimited every time I cover a song for YouTube it's a problem and add more adjustments with audio sound like a echo stuff like that I love this app it's just time it adds things ### 4/5 — awesome but *2015-05-21* Great app! Does record but the only thing I find trouble with is deleting maybe two layers of music, as opposed to only being able to delete one or the whole track and start over. I would also like for there to be an option to record from an audio track (song) and add to it. As well as being able to delete bits and pieces of something if you don't like it . ### 1/5 — Lost everything! *2015-04-25, version 1.3.50* I created a voicejam which I worked extremely hard on and was very proud of. I saved it and that was fine. I quit the application once and came back to it to listen and it was still a-okay but upon closing and reopening it later, the app crashed and I LOST EVERYTHING! I was actually about to share the song when the app crashes and it erased itself. I was devastated to say the very least. ### 3/5 — Gets you started. *2015-04-19, version 1.3.50* The app has good functionality. Minor bug is about a half second silence when the loop is about to reset. Maybe fix that. You get three pickup effects: reverb, distortion, and echo. Echo won't stick to the channel on which you record, the effect only lasts for as long as the pickup is turned on. For the most part, a fun way to be creative with your voice. ### 1/5 — Very limited *2015-02-07, version 1.3.50* Very limited function. Not worth the money unless they include all the inapp purchases with the already over-priced tag!! ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2015-01-30, version 1.3.50* Every time I try to record something it just starts acting really weird and I have no idea how to use it. And the instructions don't make any sense. Please fix. ### 1/5 — Not very good. *2015-01-29, version 1.3.50* I bought this App in the hope that it will work, only to find out that it gives you just 30 seconds of recording and the double looping does not work. Not impressed at all. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — suddenly useless *2024-05-14* all of a sudden this app either crashes immediately or says tutorial and freezes. update. ### 1/5 — No Export Audiofiles Option! *2023-07-30, version 1.4* Why have the developers not included this simple option to export audioloops as wavs or mp3 etc. It would be really really helpful to be able to export the files and work on them within a DAW session. Feel like I was just ripped off 😟 - can’t really use this now ### 1/5 — Want a refund *2023-07-22* I bought this because I thought it was a plugin ### 1/5 — Avoid *2020-12-26* WAS good, now GARBAGE. Why? No updates. No support. Buggy. Doesn’t even connect to AirPods when the iPhone shows the AirPods are in fact connected. ### 1/5 — bluetooth headphones? *2020-04-21, version 1.4* I bought this app awhile ago but it seems like they haven’t updated it to allow for AirPods compatibility. Disappointing. ### 1/5 — WAS SUPERB. NOW HORRENDOUS. *2019-12-15* This is what you get when a developer stops TRULY supporting their apps and ignores the MASSIVE bugs that have been in the app for years. Fancy losing an entire song before you upload it to Soundcloud (the only means of exporting on Voice Jam)? How about experiencing ENORMOUS, PERMANENT tempo changes that not only speed up your track - when you load it up once again - but have you in Chipmunk Mode? Sure...you can upload to Soundcloud immediately after laying a song down, to avoid this... But why go through the pain when there are far better loopers on the App Store. The even “better” news is that their companion app - VOICE RACK - with all of its “amazing” vocal effects...is even worse. More bugs than a Presidential Campaign Office. Completely uselsss in every respect. And don’t bother writing to TC Helicon support either. You’ll simply get a polite email explaining that the App is no longer supported. But they WILL leave it up on the App Store of course - knowing full well what a bug-infested piece of trash they are peddling. Shameful behavior from a company that once prided itself on delivering excellence. ### 1/5 — Already own the app *2017-02-15, version 1.4* I have this app on my iPad and to download for my iPhone 6s I had to buy it again why was there no restore?? ### 1/5 — Scratchy Sound...!? *2016-06-05, version 1.3.50* I saw a video on youtube about people mixing their voices and making SFX and when they added all together IT WAS SICK! But when I buyed it, as soon as I record my voice and I play it back.... It sounds very scratchy as an my mic is broken, tried it on another device and it still did it.... Waste of money here. Not rating 5 stars till it gets fixed. PS I was reading some reviews and other people like me have the same problem. ### 1/5 — Terrible feedback *2016-05-27, version 1.3.50* No matter what I do I cannot get the terrible feedback to stop on any single loop (vocal or otherwise). I've tried using headphones, without headphones, adjusting the mic to headphone setting but it all includes so much feedback it's not even usable. ### 1/5 — bad *2016-05-02, version 1.3.50* I just wasted money on this and the audio playback is horrible ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Voice Jam *2017-08-07* I can sing and record will be fun. ### 5/5 — Best app for songwriters and musicians *2016-10-30* This is absolutely the best app I've ever used. I've never had as much fun making music as I have with this app. Better than every other looper, by far. Record vocals and sounds and switch to beat mode and use the app as an instrument. It's amazing. Only suggestion is for a Release-Trigger mode so a sample will only play if your finger is on it and release when you release the button. ### 5/5 — . *2016-09-27* Who was brought here by Douglas Bako??? ### 5/5 — I can't believe they sell it for so cheap *2015-01-18, version 1.3.50* Listen, I started off about 4 years ago using a Boss RC 50 to create music by way of beatboxing. I sold it after using the TC Helicon's Voice Jam app. I was able to combine it with Garage Band and take my imagination a lot further. I use it on stage weekly for live performances. And it's portable! So I make music wherever I go! ### 5/5 — Salute *2014-12-27, version 1.3.50* Awesomely awesome ... ### 5/5 — Made for performance *2014-11-10, version 1.3.50* Once you get your head around the interface, it becomes apparent that is a legit performance tool. Rather than just start and stop of loops, you can mix and fade phrases which seems to be a limitation of other loop apps. The included effects are a treat as well. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2014-11-07, version 1.3.50* A must-have for all singers. ### 5/5 — Super Fun! *2014-08-08, version 1.3.50* Honestly, the app is user friendly AND fun. The microphone pics up a lot on my iPhone 5S and I had a cool vocal loop going after about 5 minutes of tutorial and 5 minutes of messing around. Great job! This Super fun app will definitely stay on the phone! ### 5/5 — Cool app! *2014-08-07* This is a really neat app! I love that the effects are included. I'm already a TC Helicon user, so I trust their products. Love the tutorial. It is very detailed. I would like the dials on the effects to be easier to use. You can't see them under your fingers. Overall, I'm still very new to looping, but I've always wanted to learn how to do it right and this app is great for the practice without jumping in and buying expensive equipment before I'm ready. ### 5/5 — Great experience *2014-07-31, version 1.3.50* Does everything I would want it too. Has a good tutorial, and is easy to use. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
