About

SoundPad+

Features
Read full description

Turn your own sound clips into a soundboard you can trigger with a tap. SoundPad+ is a simple, no-nonsense soundboard app that you fill with your own audio. Every pad is yours to name, colour and configure — there's no built-in meme pack, no bundled sound library, just your own clips. TAP, LOOP, STOP • Tap a pad to play a sound once • Double-tap to loop it • Tap a playing pad to stop it • Long-press a pad to rename it, swap the sound or pick a colour 16 PADS PER PAGE Build a page for each set — one for a gig, one for a stream, one for sound effects — and swipe between them. Reorder and rename pages and pads, or delete a page in a couple of taps. MADE FOR LIVE USE • Polyphonic mode layers several pads at once, or switch it off so a new pad stops the last • Per-pad volume sliders balance a soundboard without re-editing the files • Colour-coded pads make the one you want easy to hit under pressure • Playing and looping pads light up so you can see what's running • The screen stays awake while sound is playing YOUR SOUNDS, YOUR DEVICE Load any audio file already on your device — MP3, WAV, OGG, M4A and more. Each sound is copied into the app, so your soundboard keeps working even after you tidy up your downloads folder. FREE, WITH AN OPTIONAL UPGRADE Free to use, with up to 4 pages. An optional one-time Pro unlock removes that limit and adds: • Export a page to share with someone else — they import it straight into their own SoundPad+ • Playback that keeps going when your phone locks, with lock-screen controls to pause and resume No ads, no accounts, no sign-up, no tracking — SoundPad+ works entirely offline. GOOD FOR Live music and theatre cues, streaming and podcasting, sound effects and drops, drum and percussion pads, language and speech practice, classroom and therapy prompts, accessibility boards, or just keeping your favourite clips one tap away.
