This app plays sustained, hand-tuned drone notes that fill the room with deep ambient resonance. Pick any pitch across the full chromatic range and hold it as long as you need — no loops, no seams, just a perfectly steady note with warm overtones. Blend waveforms, soften the attack, and dial in detuned layers to shape the texture. Set a gentle fade timer and let a single tone carry you into stillness. Background audio, AirPlay, and headphones — your drone keeps glowing wherever you go. Perfect for meditation, breathwork, deep focus, sleep, and musical practice or tuning. — SUBSCRIPTION — Premium unlocks all features. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.

BEAN VOICE

BEAN VOICE shows you what your voice is actually doing. Open a recording and it draws the pitch line over time, so you can see where you went flat, where you wobbled, and where the note settled. It marks which register you were in rather than guessing from loudness alone. It also reads how open your mouth was, how much air was in the tone, and where the energy sat in the sound. The Range view shows how long and how loud you held each semitone, and Tension by pitch shows whether your throat tightens as you go higher. None of that is a score out of ten. It is a picture of the take, so you can compare today with last week. Works with anything you have recorded, including the sound from a video. Live analysis draws the pitch of what you are singing right now; when you stop, play back what you just sang while the graph follows, and save it or send it to the full analysis view. The sound stays on this device and is never sent anywhere. Register, Formants and Spectrogram views are available in live analysis too. The Spectrogram draws louder sound brighter on a dark background, and you can change its colours and contrast. The same sound looks the same at any recording level. In the Spectrogram view you can also split the sound by harmonic number and listen to just those. Tap a number below the graph, or a harmonic line on the graph. It works on recordings you open and on what you just sang in live analysis. Ear Training sharpens your ear: intervals, chords, melody dictation, scales and modes, and rhythm dictation, plus sight-singing where you sing from a score and each note is scored for pitch and timing. Your practice records stay on this device. About the license The app works without a license: opening a recording, all six views, the measured values, playback, and live analysis with the Pitch view and playback of what you just sang are all free. A license removes the ad shown when you open the app, and turns on the AI analysis, the Register, Formants and Spectrogram views in live analysis, hearing harmonics in the Spectrogram, and Ear Training. BEAN VOICE 1 month license — KRW 12,000 per month, auto-renewing It renews at the same price unless you turn it off at least 24 hours before the period ends. You can turn it off any time in Settings > your Apple Account > Subscriptions.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: DroneTone at none against BEAN VOICE's shown. BEAN VOICE's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
