cut&loop is an audio player that lets you use your own audio for language learning and instrument practice. Jump to the start of a phrase and repeat it for listening practice, shadowing, memorization, or learning music by ear.

You will not be charged automatically when the trial ends. A subscription is required to use paid features after the free period. No account registration is required. I’m continuing to improve the app to make it easier to use.
