App doesn’t fully open, then disappears.

I’m running updated tools, iPad, the app won’t open. Seems other users also in pain. Why advertise this? False advertising!

App crashes on my iPad.

The app consistently crashes on my iPad. I have a slightly newe iPad Pro, one of the models that has no physical button on the surface. I’m running the most current version of the iPadOS as of September 2026. I’ve been forced to use Mixing Station.

Broken

The app was usable and got the job done, but now it just crashes every time I launch it. Unusable.

Crashes on startup

Older ios versions seem to work well, but nothing current works anymore. No support or fixes available

Absolutely Pointless App

Bought the Behringer XR18 to use with my iPad Air but the app doesn’t even load. You get the X Air flash screen but then immediately crashes. What’s the point of an app that won’t even load? Would give zero stars if I could. This is just shameful and pitiful for Behringer…
