Read full descriptionHide full description
jd.Edit is a waveform editor for iPhone — cut audio like on a desktop. On top of that, the app records through USB audio interfaces in true stereo and remembers your input choice instead of letting iOS silently switch back to a Bluetooth headset. And it writes MP3 with its own encoder — something iOS cannot do at all — calibrated against the reference encoder LAME. FREE — INCLUDED FOR EVERYONE • Opens WAV, AIFF, CAF, MP3, M4A/AAC, Apple Lossless, FLAC and Opus (mono and stereo) • Waveform with two-finger zoom all the way down to individual wave cycles • Select, listen, delete, trim to selection, silence — non-destructive, with unlimited undo; the original file is never touched • Linear fade-in and fade-out • Zero-crossing snap and a 2 ms micro-fade at every cut edge: no clicks • Recording with the built-in microphone as uncompressed WAV (44.1 kHz / 24-bit) • File shelf with folders, search, preview playback and mini player — visible in the iOS Files app • Export as WAV and AAC. At the same bitrate, AAC actually beats MP3 in quality — the free tier does not get the worse result, just not the older format The free tier is deliberately complete: if you trim a voice memo or cut a ringtone, you will never hit a wall. THE PRO UNLOCK — ONE-TIME PURCHASE, NO SUBSCRIPTION • MP3 export with the built-in encoder jd.Codec: constant bitrate, variable (V0–V9) or average bitrate, joint stereo, sample-accurate gapless • Freely shapeable fade curves with seven presets — drag, add and remove points, with dB and time readout • Normalize to peak level or loudness (RMS) with a selectable target and clipping protection • Recording through USB audio interfaces and in stereo — with a real-time spectrum analyzer and level meters • Wi-Fi transfer: upload and download files in a browser on your computer, with QR code and access code; hotspot mode gets around hotel and guest networks • Export in 24-bit and 32-bit float, with dither • Edit ID tags on MP3s: title, artist, album, cover and more — in the app and in the browser on your computer via Wi-Fi transfer And nobody buys blind: every Pro feature can be used five times for free — only then does the app ask for the purchase. ABOUT JD.CODEC iOS ships without an MP3 encoder — jd.Edit brings its own. jd.Codec is developed entirely in-house with zero third-party libraries, verified with 116 round-trip checks against Apple's own decoder and benchmarked against LAME. And lossless is always available: import → export without edits is bit-identical for WAV.

Most alarm clocks offer only a beep or a random melody. Wakefy wakes you up with the music you actually love. PICK ANY SONG Connect your streaming service or Apple Music and choose the track you want to start your day with — a favorite song, a saved track, something from your playlist, or a calm mix for a gentle wake-up. Find the song you want, preview it, and make sure it’s the one you want to hear in the morning. SMART WAKE Tell Wakefy when you need to wake up, and it will help you choose the best moment within your sleep cycles. Wake up between cycles instead of during deep sleep. The volume increases gradually, so your music starts softly and naturally. AN ALARM YOU CAN RELY ON Wakefy uses the system alarm service, so your alarm goes off even when the app is closed, your phone is on silent, or Focus mode is enabled. If streaming music is unavailable at wake-up time, Wakefy automatically plays a saved clip of your chosen track or a backup melody — so you’ll never miss your alarm because of a connection issue. RIGHT ON YOUR LOCK SCREEN Live Activity shows the cover art of the upcoming track and counts down to your wake-up time. Stop the alarm or snooze it without opening the app. MORE FEATURES INSIDE • Repeat by weekday, one-time alarms, and custom labels • The option to completely disable snooze • Gentle built-in melodies for those who prefer not to use streaming REQUIREMENTS Playing full tracks requires the Spotify app with a Spotify Premium subscription or an Apple Music subscription. Without either, Wakefy uses a saved clip of your chosen song or a built-in melody.
