The features it offers are endless and it just works so well. It is completely stable and runs perfectly. You do need to subscribe for £2.79 a month but it is well worth it if you are going to use it regularly. ### 5/5 — Kreative VYBN *2025-11-25* I’m enjoying this very much. I’m still learning as I’m going along, but the effects helps out so much. Can’t wait to learn the video editor. Thanks! ### 5/5 — This right here app I have used two forensically cleanup audio. *2025-08-18* I have had to clear up some audio that was very important to the lives of myself and my children. I did not get any assistance from the law in my county. I have gone through many different programs and apps, but this is the one I always return to to break down the madness and get to the vocals. I have taught myself how to use this app as a forensic audio tool and it has worked! I found it easy to learn, and I had never touched audios before. I can now take some thing that no one else can hear voices in and bring the voices out. This app may very well help save our lives. ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-04-25* Just better sound and background music/noise to only hear talking and whisper would be great ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-02-07* I got this app to have fun and record but as soon as I got it it said I needed to buy a subscription and I understand that sometimes you need to do that but come on it’s kind of annoying. So I ended up deleting the app because I thought there was no point in buying so one star **Developer response:** Hi, We are sorry to hear you had a bad experience using our app. We have a free version of our software which offers basic functionality with in-app purchases for more advanced features.

Fails to save your edited file (no further information in the pop up of course) and then reverts it. You cannot try again because all features are now paid. Not willing to pay since I don’t know if the saving bug will persist and I only got to see 3 features before it became paid content. Sick of clownery so I’m leaving this circus. **Developer response:** Hello, You are downloading a Free version of our software which offers basic functionality with in-app purchases for more advanced features.
