LOOPBAR is a multitrack looper for guitar, on iPhone and iPad. Record a riff, let it loop, stack the next part on top – and jam over your own band. No pedalboard, no cables – just your guitar and your iPhone or iPad. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap record and play your riff. With the metronome on, you get a one-bar count-in and the recording starts on the one. 2. LOOPBAR finds the loop points for you, bar-accurate. Fine-tune them on the waveform – even while the loop is playing. 3. Add the next track. Chords, bass line, lead – as many layers as you like. 4. Play everything together and solo over it. FEATURES • Multiple independent tracks, each with its own loop • Automatic, bar-accurate loop point detection • Waveform view with drag & drop loop points and fine-tuning in 10 ms steps • Adjust loop points while the loop keeps playing • Metronome with count-in, tap tempo, 40–240 BPM, 4/4, 3/4 and 6/8 • Play your loops through AirPlay, HomePod or Bluetooth speakers • NEW: Save loops to iCloud Drive or on your device, load them as new tracks, share them via AirDrop, Mail or the Files app • NEW: Import audio files (WAV, MP3, M4A, AIFF …) as a track – voice memos, backing tracks, ideas • Play, pause and stop all tracks at once • VoiceOver support LOOPBAR records through your device's microphone. No account, no tracking, no data collected. Made by an indie developer who plays guitar – and uses LOOPBAR for exactly that.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: ClashSiren at Free against LOOPBAR's $0.99. LOOPBAR's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
