FL Studio Mobile for Negative User Reviews
✓ Major issues1. No recording quantization of any kind whatsoever. So you either play your patterns in perfectly the first time, or take the extra step of manually adjusting or snapping off time notes AFTER every single recording. When virtually every other daw, groovebox, even music making toys aimed at kids and casuals has recording quantization, it’s unforgivable to omit it, oh but thanks for letting us change the colors, big help there. 2. The user interface is very very fiddly and an absolute chore to navigate through. Surprising, because the app is fairly simple in design. Yet somehow, even after knowing where everything is and how to do everything, you still find yourself wrestling with the interface. One panel/page always seems to be obscuring something else or cluttering up the screen and it’s up to you, the user, to keep the screen organized by constantly scrolling and moving things around. Not fun. On a positive note, the sounds are very good and I particularly like how the instruments and fx are sort of organized within the same window. Scale selection for the in app keyboard was a welcome addition as well. It’s unfortunate that the aforementioned glaring issues make it a chore and a grind to use what would otherwise be a very awesome mobile daw..Version: 4.0
✓ Very badThere are WAY too many glitches and bugs in this app most of them being problems with audio not playing, AUDIO NOT PLAYING. Also, this app is like a maze. It’s very hard to get around and can be really tricky to get used to. It’s also very expensive for what it can do and in my opinion isn’t worth buying. I can’t understand why the developers didn’t just allow the “actually good” Fl studio to be on mobile instead of this Fl stupidio joke. Also, judging by what I’ve seen, the developers of this app haven’t even looked at all the reviews from this Fl studio imposter. I expected a lot more than this..Version: 3.2.79
✓ Ok, but can be tricky to use on a iphoneUpdate on the new version Terrible 1.5/5, all my old projects created in the older version either don't work or sound completely different and terrible. Don't like the layout even after a couple of hours trying to get used to it. One thing that is 2x as good is the piano roll and it works brilliantly and not as annoying as the older version DO NOT UPDATE YET, when things are ironed out it may fix all the issues but at the moment it is terrible Old review of older version I use an iPhone 6, it works ok. It's got a good few features from the full version like piano roll, step sequencer etc etc but can all be very tricky to use If I have an idea I need to be able to copy it down Asap so I don't forget but it is hard due to the complexity of doing simple tasks and takes a while to work out how to do stuff, even like drawing notes into piano roll is hard Also I have tryed this on an iPhone 4 and 5 and when playing your loops the sound seems to skip a little making it sound off beat on older devices but works sound on an iPhone 6 onwards Overall 6/10 at the moment because of its issues and doesn't feel like a full unbugged release, but is still fun to use and you can still use it to throw down a quick idea.Version: 3.1.13
✓ CrashesSince the new update it seems to lag and the sound cuts off , then it will crash and return to the home screen . Can you please do a fix please as it's not like the app is 2-4 pound it's an expensive and shouldn't be having issues like this for that sort of money.Version: 2.2
✓ Google drive sync completely brokenIt literally does not do anything.Version: 4.5.7
✓ WONT RECORD WITH EARPHONES INHey guys I was wondering if anyone can help me with this issue, I’m trying to record audio with the beat playing in my earphones like I’ve seen people do with this app on iPhone, it says it’s recording but is not picking up any audio unless the earphones are unplugged( which is useless to me) I know it’s not my earphones or phone because it works on GarageBand..Version: 3.2.48
✓ Can’t Import any MIDI files!I’m giving it three stars because I’ve created 90% of the music I’ve made on this mobile app with relative ease and despite the reviews, I’ve had a lot of fun with this over the computer version only because the PC is a little too sophisticated for my liking. This app has always served as the middle ground for me and I liked it for that reason. Ever since the most recent update which introduced some new instruments and some new layouts, the overall function of MIDI seems to have been impacted although it seems to be the action of importing that has been damaged lately. I used to import midi files and edit them or do whatever was necessary within reason, but now whenever I import any file whether it be MIDI or an audio file, the app crashes. As long as I don’t import files, the app works fine but whenever I import it seemingly crashes, which, is a huge headache. I’ve gone the whole 9 yards of reinstalling the app at the cost of sacrificing my songs that I’ve already made as well as restoring my purchases. So, that’s where I am now. Hopefully the app updates and fixes the crashing issue because I’ve sunk money in on this app and I really don’t want to use garage band for my production needs. Thanks!.Version: 4.0.6
✓ Y U NO MAKE 4 Mac?Hi, I once used fl before and I really enjoy using it to make dubstep. The only problem is I don't understand why you don't make the software for MacBook Pro. This is very confusing and I hope you can fix this..Version: 2.1
✓ Nice for beginners, restricting for othersGot this app because I thought it was a direct port of FL Studio on Pc so i can use it when im away for home but it is its own thing. The amount of instruments is restricting because you cant import your own and your better off using garage band or any other free production app..Version: 4.2.5
✓ IAA does not work. At all!I bought this as some reviews say it has good sounds and is very usable. Also because they have just released a new desktop version and this version seems to be updated regularly. But it is very buggy. I have an IPad 2018, so there should not be any issues there but IAA crashes with every instrument I try to load. The keyboard misses notes all the time and the whole thing is not very intuitive. By far the best DAWs are Cubasis and NanoStudio 2. They are just worlds apart. Don’t waste your money, I wish I had not wasted mine. Having used it some more it gets worse. It has Midi import but that does not work. Even saving the track Midi then trying to reload it fails. Trying to record to Audiobus does not work. The track stops when you enable record so nothing happens. Trying to get it int Cubasis does not work, however the transport control starts Cubasis but does not play the track. Trying to onboard record and share, comes up with no device found. I am getting my money back. This is a bad toy and a joke. The developers should not be allowed to upload the software in this state..Version: 3.2.42
✓ Don't buy itPlease don't waste your money on this poor app. I know your thinking ohhh but it's Fruity Loops, NO!!. I thought this would be good because of the name and dev. But no it so limited and with such terrible sound quality. I'm running on the ipad2 but yet it crashes. The piano roll is a joke so pointlessly complex. You can only draw 1 note at a time and press the draw button every time to make sure it actually stays. Makes no sense. Sounds are limited. Yea you can add new ones but that requires you to plus iPad to the computer. And if your gonna do that then what's the point. Might as-well be on the computer version. You can't import sounds from synths like sunrizer's synth. You can only export. What's the point. Until this app is given a few major changing updates I'm afraid 1 star is all it deserves for the price charging. Steer clear and save your money..Version: 1.1
✓ Gettn thereHas potential ....buggy....update needed.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Your solo ain’t operatingTo whom it may concern, Your solo button doesn’t work for me on my iPhone 11 I need it to function as its intended to so that I can individually eq the sounds and instruments accurately. When I click the solo option for any sound I hear nothing please fix..Version: 4.0.6
✓ Overcharged?I was billed more than twice the listed app price..why was that?.Version: 4.0.16
✓ Unfortunately DisappointingI got FL Studio for mobile hoping to be able to further my interest in music, and maybe even produce something. I got FL Studio in particular for it’s good reputation, and everyone was recommending it to me. I went into this hoping for it to be really easy to use, and to quickly make and produce music. Instead, what I found is that the system is not user-friendly in the slightest, the sounds you’re able to use are quite limited, and half of the buttons don’t properly work. This is really disappointing considering how much this was recommended to me, and how much this costed. In my opinion, it isn’t worth it..Version: 3.2.42
✓ Whats the point when the audio crashes every five minutesUnsatisfactory.Version: 4.3.16
✓ It’s good but has some bugsSo I tried to make a midi file but it didn’t work at all, it just sent me to a blank file with 120 as the tempo, and I didn’t click New Song, I clicked save and opened the file, please fix this.Version: 4.3.5
✓ Another ToyIf you put all the ipad music apps together you could get a decent workstation. Don't know if I'll use this one. Apple should make all contributors write apps in an evaluation form so you can see if it's useful. As it stands buying an app is a gamble. And on this one I think I lost..Version: 1.0
✓ Good but expected betterI bourght this thinking that it could help me make my rhythms faster but it doesnt even have piano roll. waste of $20, the computer version it much better. And i would suggest you buy that..Version: 2.0
✓ Big let downI was hoping by now the limitations of this app would be remedied but apparently not. If you've tried GarageBand Mobile you'll sorely miss the arpeggiator, scales and natural instruments. The interface is also very clunky in comparison and isn't especially intuitive for touch. The piano roll editor is difficult to use and requires the use of too many buttons where gestures or more intelligent design should have been employed. The synth collection is nice but completely sample based and so the desktop integration, while convenient, is therefore limited. I think Imageline needs to go back to the drawing board if they intend to justify the high price tag. As for the latest update the new sound packs offer a much wider array of sounds but the trade off for me seems to be a glitch that has disabled saving and tells me that I have pirated the software despite my registration and receipt..Version: 1.4
✓ It's not what I expectedThe app had a lot of hype and was well taken from most in the general production community but it as its downfalls. In some ways I have no one to blame but my self for misinterpreting what this app can really do. Image Line promotes it as something that you can get ideas out on but by no means is this a full fledged mobile daw. It has all the same functionality as regular fl but In a watered down fashion. Almost like comparing color richness to that of acrylic and watercolor. I am a sample artist and one of the biggest issues I had was that the drum pads did not have a trigger or choke function. This meant I had to hold ever pad to cue a sample and let it go right I hit another. Needless to say this completely changed my workflow and took seem naturalness away from using the app. This is just one thing I found to be a bit annoying and reason enough to pass for anyone who uses samples. All and all it's not a bad app if you can get past some of its downfalls and the support is has for external hardware may trump some of these issues. All except for the playlist workflow, but for the price of this app I would pass. The best thing about it though is the ability to export to fl so if working in a flawed but well put together enviro net is worth twenty smacks to you the by all means get this app. Ask for me I will be sticking with externals like the Oregon keyboard and the mpc fly..Version: 1.4.1
✓ No longer able to save or load projectsUsed to love this app but now it’s completely not functional. Lost my project files trying to get this app to make a new. Pretty upsetting..Version: 4.5.7
✓ Problem with the recording partSo i found a problem with the audio recording. every time i try to make a custom sound to make a beat. when i hit record. get it down and save it to use it it turns the sounds i make into a 1 tone high pitch sound that isnt what i even recorded. can you guys try to fix the audio recording please. Thank you.Version: 4.2.5
✓ Bugs and laggingI’ve been a long time user of FL Studio Mobile, this just started happening recently but when I open the audio clip to upload it into the channel the app freezes. I’ve closed the app and tried again multiple times and it still doesn’t work. I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled it and it still freezes when I try to upload an audio clip into the channel. Another problem comes when I save an audio file into the samples folder, some of the audio files are not showing up in the samples folder. Developers could do a better job by trying to make it possible to copy and paste an audio files directly into the channel without having to save it in the samples folder. I’ve done it with other apps, I’m sure it could be possible with FL Mobile too. Ironic that the app recently updated to fix bugs and that’s the very issue we are struggling with. Until this issue is fixed I’m not going to be satisfied with this app..Version: 3.3.2
✓ NO TIME STRETCHING = BADPleas include time stretching cus it would be usfull eg an out of bar or out of beat audio (1 out 5 audio tracks doesnt fit in with the rest of the audio tracks (timeing) eg rest are 4 bars while 5th is 5 bars u could time stretch it down to 4 bars so it fits with the other tracks).Version: 2.4.2
✓ Good, but...I'm Gradually getting used to FLM3, however a lot of my old songs are different now, even since the latest fix. Some instruments are now on a different octave. Others have the riff written down but no sample. And when I drop the instrument back to its original octave it refuses to save the change. So next time I load it, it's back to where it was, usually one octave too high. I don't know what to do....Version: 3.1.13
✓ If they could just sort that piano roll...Having used FL Studio for a number of years, I was excited by the prospect of a ipad version. I'm often getting little tunes and ideas pop into my head and I thought this would be great for starting on a track when I can't get onto the desktop version. After a little while, I realised this wouldn't be the case. My biggest woe is with the piano roll. It's needlessly complicated. Rather than the intuitive touch interface you'd expect and pasting notes where you touch, you get a much slower "paste and move" thing going on. You have to press a button to draw a note on the piano roll, then move the note where you want, then draw another one, move it etc. If there is another way of doing this, then I'm happy to be corrected, but at the moment I find it a bit long winded. I think this has the potential to be great, but I use the desktop version as its simpler and more intuitive than other DAWs I've used, but this ipad version isn't..Version: 2.1
✓ Not the Fruity Loops you know and loveThis app claims to be the fastest way from your brain to your ears.. More like the fastest way to get frustrated and start a migraine. You can't design your own sounds.. Okay, this is a limitation I could live with if the sounds weren't completely over produced with tonnes of delay and generally uninspired. But what I can't live with is the utterly idiotic piano roll. What makes FL Studio so great on the pc is the fantastically simple and intuitive piano roll. This has been reworked for the mobile version and is absolutely awful. A UX nightmare. For me this is a showstopper and renders this app useless and a waste of money. Bummer, because I've used FL Studio on the pc for many years and love it and was looking forward to an ipad version. Do yourself a favour and don't waste your money on this lemon..Version: 2.4.2
✓ The songs never playThe songs that I right rarely play and I have to shut down fl studio just to hear it once.Version: 4.0.7
✓ DisappointingI dont want to be another person that complains and wants something for nothing, but, when I compare this against other apps around the same price for example Beatmaker2, this is really disappointing. I have been using Fruity Loops or FL Studio since 1998. One of the defining aspects of FL Studio is the incredible ease of use and the ability to get a great sound real quick. In my judgment this is App is a very very 'lite' version of what the full desktop application has provided for years. I find the FX setup whilst promising, it is very limited in that effectively you are limited to 1 effects send across all of your instruments. The instrument pool that Imageline has provided is lame, and has no editing capacity/ sound manipulation beyond ADSR, Volume and Panning. The pros: step sequencing and recording piano roll instruments and looping is easy. Where I think this app is really let down is the poor FX bus, zero instrument editing, and a dull mix of bundled instruments. In short an elementary app. For the same money, try Beatmaker2, an incredible app. Or for a $5 the mighty Xenon Groove Synthesiser!!.Version: 1.2
✓ So badFl is trash dawg.Version: 4.5.3
✓ I don’t like this programBought this yesterday and wasn’t happy with the app and throws to request a refund and was denied.Version: 4.5.3
✓ No sound?I bought this yesterday and it worked fine, I was very pleased. Now today, no sound... What gives? This not good enough. Before the program gets to the App Store it should work properly. Very very very VERY annoyed. Fix this!.Version: 2.3
✓ Hopefully be improvedReally poor update ATM. The thing that made the original good was how intuitive it was. Hopefully in time it will get better, but this was a complete rewrite that i don't think needed. Still lots of things missing and not enough tutorials about yet to get around how different it is. This is a bit more like the PC version. Hopefully they will continue to build on that. 3 stars, but a whole lot of potential for 5 stars when they add more stuff and sort a few of the bugs. Btw it's crashed a few times losing my unsaved stuff which is annoying if you don't want to be saving every 5 minutes 😡.Version: 3.0
✓ CrashCant go 5 mins without crashing :/ since update too, cpu is always maxing out and i cant find any ways to fix it anywhere.Version: 4.0.1
✓ Great appThis app looks and feels amazing, as a long time fl studio user im STOKED to see that this has come about, to the guy with the issue with difficulty with the technicalities of the app; this is for people with at least a basic knowledge of how a DAW works, in particular fl studio. Its not supposed to be easy right off the bat, its a proper technical app with real life practicality, im so stoked that you guys at image line have made this happen, MASSIVE props!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Touch tap problemeI cant tap anything look like the app is not compatible with my iphone 8plus... did reload it and still... the touch control are in the wrong place.Version: 3.5.0
✓ Pixely audioI love the app, been using it for quite some time now. But a couple days ago when ever I go to record my voice it would always come out pixely, even when I have vocal monitor on. I searched up how to fix it but couldn’t find any results, and there no options in settings to fix it. I was wondering if you could help my how to fix it, cuz I can’t..Version: 3.6.1
✓ Good, could be betterFl studio HD has some great sounds and it's fairly easy to arrange your song once you get the hang of it. Unfortunately in the step sequencer there are no smart tap and drag or adjust options, instead FL requires you to tap on the tool you want before you edit any of your notes. So if you want to move five notes to different places you have to select each note then hit the move tool, then move the note instead of a simple tap and drag. This is also the same for scrolling and zooming out. The makers of this program have deemed scrubbing more important than navigating. A simple tap and pinch to zoom or slide to scroll on the bar count would have made this program much more user friendly..Version: 2.1
✓ Refund PlsI bought the wrong app and shortly realised after purchase. please give me a refund..Version: 4.4.8
✓ Major bugs.Whenever I go to playback the tracks I've made with a minisynth pad. It freezes, no sound comes and it is virtually unusable... Please fix this soon. I'm on IPod 4.Version: 2.3
✓ Hate this versionApologies if any developers of the app read this but I'm finding this new version awful to use! I loved the old version, was so easy to use and enjoyable which is the complete opposite to this version. I'm sure you've added new features in version 3 but you've also taken away what made version 2 so good. Feel like I've wasted £10 on this and I'm now looking at other studio apps more user friendly..Version: 3.1.13
✓ FIX THE CRASHING RIGHT NOWI love fl and I payed $25 for it so maybe I should be able to use it WITHOUT IT CRASHING..Version: 2.3
✓ Theres a bug where it stays stuck on one projectI tried creating a new project, changing to a different one, everything, and it wont save the progress i do to the one it's stuck on, my favorite app has left me with nothing to do.Version: 4.5.4
✓ CrashAt least make this app more functional without making it crash every five minutes.Version: 4.2.5
✓ Needs improvementGlitchy and can’t make up its mind, copy paste function almost doesn’t exist. Could be great, but isn’t..Version: 3.5.11
✓ Update issueI have fl studio installed. But when I search i cannot find it on the store to be able to update it for ghost notes. In my purchased apps I can find the app but shows no available update. On google I get the link for App Store but when clicking the link I get notification on screen “app currently unavailable in you country or region” please help!!!.Version: 3.4.5
✓ Somehow a bit worse than the trial version.So I got this Tuesday, and after a bit of fumbling I did one (1) song. But the app is really odd. Well first of all soundfonts, for some reason the app doesn't support .sf2 (soundfont) files, something the trial version on PC has, so importing a certain game's instruments is difficult to impossible. Next is the shop, for while there are filters there isn't any way to specifically SEARCH for what you're looking for, which for me at least a is a bit of a nonissue since I never needed anything from it. Next, the UI feels really tight, the piano roll for example, the piano itself takes if a major portion of the screen and it's really awkward placing down notes with it, and the module, opening it is easy enough but closing is very specific. The app can be good but wow does it have a bit of raw bits left..Version: 4.3.13
✓ THE APP ALWAYS CRASH!!!!!!!!!!PLEASE FIX THIS IT CRASHES SO OFTEN I CANT EVEN OPEN MY FLM FILE.Version: 3.3.2
✓ New update not goodMy pluckin's won't even load, i have full version..Version: 4.2.5
✓ Core midiCore midi is actually terrible on this app. You will find yourself wanting to throw something really badly. A few shaky interface problems also. Not as happy as I felt I would although hopefully they will fix the freezing up on the core midi. This Is a main reason I purchased the app..Version: 1.0
✓ Do not downloadThis new update corrupted all of my files, I HAD 30gb worth of sounds, samples, and songs, and now all of them are gone..Version: 4.5.7
✓ Doesn't separate itself from the pack.There are currently only 3 serious daws for the iPad this, beat maker 2 and nano studio. This is a descent daw but if you have used fl studio before on the pc this might feel it a bit constraining. On an iPad 1 this app runs great definitely better then beat maker 2 (which frequently crashes) it has better sound samples out of the box then beat maker 2 (by light years ahead) but I always go back to nano studio( their sound samples are provided by loop masters). This app is not as fluid as nano mainly because it's not as intuitive and can be almost clumsy at times . I'm also not sure of the best way to get my own samples onto this app quickly nano has a program that sends it instantly I wish this had something similar. The drum step sequencer is superior to nano and beat maker 2. But editing sound samples is vastly superior in nano. I got this app the day it came out on the store and hoped that it would be improved on in many ways but it doesn't look like fl wants to upgrade it too much from the launch version. With this app You are getting a daw that is portable on an iPad I was disappointed that I have to buy it again for my phone while beatmaker 2 and nano are universal..Version: 1.4.1
✓ ScamI was charged without my permission a month after I get this.Version: 3.2.85
✓ Nice but..All almost good but one of big disadvantage I found in MIDI implementation. Cannot setting midi in channels for control included instruments and I not find MIDI master clock synchronisation in/out and no transport control. Midi out also is no good. Poor setting section. Why??? these functionality is the most important in DAW software. Is any chance in the future that it’s will be available??.Version: 3.4.9
✓ BruhEvery time I try to load an instrument I BOUGHT FROM THIS APP, the app always crashes.Version: 3.6.17
✓ In app purchases reset?!?!I have had in app purchases since I got the program went to use it after a couple of months of no use and all my purchases are no longer there.. it’s telling me I have to pay for them again?.Version: 3.2.56
✓ Sort out shopGood studio to make your own music but need to sort out the shop, every time i want to buy more vocal fx it says my internet is to slow or download the latest version. My internet speed is more then fast and i do have the latest version so please sort it out cos i do want to buy more.Version: 2.4.2
✓ It’s cool but it’s hard for me to take serious as of nowI think what would make it even better would be to optimize key commands/shortcuts for users who are on iPad using a keyboard, just like on FL Studio Desktop. Not being able to do things like copy & paste with Command+B or Being able to quantize with Command+Q makes producing on this such a hassle. Also a strum feature would be amazing on this. & why not be able to go through tools like in FL Desktop? I know that FL Mobile PROBABLY wants to be it’s own thing, but to ignore the features that make FL Desktop great is a big mistake. It’d be an update I’d like to see :) so that I can potential start to make more music on my Ipad. I think a great way to implement this would be through the settings menu, & to add a button that says “Enable Desktop Shortcuts”. Moving across the piano roll with commands like Shift+Down Arrow/Up Arrow makes it tremendously more convenient than having to constantly click/touch & move the notes manually. It helps get ideas across faster.Version: 4.3.2
✓ Fix crashHad about 2 months worth of work on the app, took effort to make multiple beats. Thought I backed it up but the app didn’t. I signed in with my email too . Only for the app to keep crashing and so after crashing again even after restarting my phone I try reinstall the app to see if it stops. All my files are gone. And I can’t recover them at all. And i can’t just “start again” either my folders, projects, everything is gone.Version: 4.2.5
✓ Really DisappointedI am completely blind and loads of my sighted friends have been telling me about this software and how much they have enjoyed it so I decided to download it and give it a try. This app is so unusable for me as a blind person and it makes me sad that my lack of site has prevented me from using something that other people have found really useful and enjoyable..Version: 3.5.4
✓ BuggedI’ve spent a lot of time making beats for fun but now when I open fl it’s completely unresponsive. I’ve deleted and lost everything and re-downloaded still nothing..Version: 3.5.0
✓ App stuck a lotToo much lagging, nowhere closer to pc version. No option to undo deleted channel. Totally disappointed. I request the refund please..Version: 3.6.17
✓ BadThe computer version is much better.Version: 3.6.17
✓ OK but FX assignment needs improving & expandingIt's not bad, the touch implementation is good, but what I find frustrating is the lack of effects assignability. There is only one effects bus or you can apply and effect to all tracks. The problem is you can't set the FX level per track if you do this. The other issue which is more of a problem is that you can only assign on FX type to the single bus, so you can't, for instance, have reverb on the drums, delay on the lead and then use the filter on the pad. It really needs to have at least 2, preferably more busses and for you to be able to set the level of FX per track. Do that and it would improve the whole package enormously.Version: 2.1
✓ GarageBand is better!!!Did you guys even tested this app?! It’s way too complicated and it doesn’t have the benefits that GarageBand has. It’s a shame that I can’t use GarageBand at the moment because apparently it won’t be available until it reaches a certain software update which I still have yet to get!!! GOD DO I HATE APPLE FOR THAT!!! Now I just wasted twenty dollars just so I can afford this awful app and I can’t get my money back! Thanks a lot, thieves!!!.Version: 3.2.61
✓ No Auv3????Ok, I’m sure this is all you need for people and it has everything they want and everything they need, but for me personally I’m not going to give up all the auv3 instruments and fx I’ve invested in. When I first bought Fl Studio for the IPad there was no auv3. Tbh if I hadn’t already bought it , by today’s standards I would easily skip over buying this app today. The Ui is so so, it’s just not inspiring, but I could probably get past it if I could use 3rd party auv3 instruments and fx. I don’t expect auv3 support anytime soon if at all because apparently there’s still an issue with getting Audiobus and iaa apps to work without crashing and it took over a decade to port a native desktop version of Fl to Mac. I think the real issue is there isn’t someone who really knows or understand how to really program for Apple products. And also, why isn’t there a real sampler yet??? Image Line, it’s 2022, what are you doing????.Version: 4.1.2
✓ AlrightThe app is very good and I have made a living off the app. I love the way you can import samples and you can share the actual stems of a beat to another device for free. The one thing I really want in the app is a pitcher. I would like to change the pitch of a audio clip without speeding up the sample or slowing it down. Please do keep the slowing down and speeding up stuff but I would like a pitcher to go with it too. Thank you..Version: 3.1.73
✓ No Audio?I can't hear anything and the audio of my piano.Version: 3.5.15
✓ CrashingMost of the time when I try playing the song I have added, the all crashes, it’s pretty repetitive.Version: 4.4.8
✓ FrustratedHi, I bought FL studio to make some music, and i did make some epic music. I bought GMSynth and used that. But now for some reason it says ‘GmSynth will only save after you have purchased. It is so frustrating!.Version: 3.2.42
✓ Very limited and not getting any better with updates.It's worth knowing that you can't build your own sounds in this app. They need to be made in Fruity Loops on the desktop, then exported over. Personally I think this is short sighted, mean, and greedy. If this is how they are going to develop this app then it's not going to get any better for non PC FL owners. That said, it works OK (no crashes for me on iPad 1), and if you're a PC Fruity Loops user, then this is maybe for you. However, having lived with this app for a while now, core issues are not being addressed so I wouldn't recommend it..Version: 1.1
✓ AnnoyingKeeps pressing random stuff by itself.Version: 3.5.0
✓ A little disappointed but looks promisingI just bought this app for my birthday and I’m very excited but I’ve run into a few bugs that have stopped me from using it. I can’t figure out how to get a hold of support or how to create an image line account either so I came here. The main problem is I can’t select the instruments icon even if I flip the screen. My touch screen works perfectly fine outside the app too so idk what to do. When I randomly click it, and it works, and I put in notes, it plays random melodies that’s not what I’m clicking. When I went to buy sound packs it freezes and or spams me with messages when I click the buy icon. Besides these few things this app looks amazing. I’ve been using GarageBand and this is easier to use and looks like I can do way more. I don’t have a computer either so I can only produce music on my phone. Help would be greatly appreciated.Version: 3.2.61
✓ Not very goodNot a professional DAW compared to Auria or even NanoStudio. Also, the plugin names are deceptive as they have nothing in common with the desktop plugins with same names..Version: 3.1.3
✓ The app is good but there are some issuesWhen u try to select a different song I made the app crashes and then when u reopen it the song u choose is the same song u choose before I made a really good song if been working very hard on and that messed it up and now. I have to delete my hard work thank u very much fl also can u even up the amp like make the beat longer and this app is basically a more restricted version of fl studio on computer.Version: 4.5.4
✓ Changed a little too muchI lovee the old FL STUDIO MOBILE. Since this new update 3 all of my music has chnaged. My 'violins' dont do anything and it sounds terrible. I spent years making music and theyre now all terrible sounding! Im coming from FL studio 2 and this update wrecked my hobby..Version: 3.0
✓ Would be good if it workedFor what ever reason right now it is not working on my Mac Mini M1 after the latest update. Would be nice if it did..Version: 4.2.5
✓ Uhhhh....are you ok, Fl?Doo doo doo doo doo doo...wait heh? I was starting a song from the Electro House template. Kick Mix. Ok. Oh here’s my drums. *goes to make a clip* All the sudden this glitchy thing appears. It looks like too many instruments on the left. And it shows too many things on. Green on 1000 pixels Yellow on 7000 pixels Blue on 500 pixels (Just kidding) But it just looks weird. Absolute glitch. I can still add instrument notes, but they’re... A. Invisible. B. No play button. And C. Why do I have to restart in order to get rid of it? If I could send an attachment you would have enough info and just get rid of it. BUT NO. I HAVE TO ACTUALLY BULLY YOU TO FIX IT. It just hurts my brain to look at it. And please. Please. Please. Please. Please. Please. JUST FIX IT..Version: 3.5.11
✓ /:Since the new update came out yesterday the buttons on my screen have not been working properly. I touch play, it presses the button to the left. I press on settings it presses something else. Atm currently unusable. I thought it was my phone at first but by using an older version of the app I could press all the buttons fine. Pls fix!.Version: 3.5.0
✓ It looks far better than it is to work with. :(Having just spent the last hour plus, working on my Tangerine Dream ambient tune idea ... inserting / editing notes in it's notes area is a major P.I.T.A! One of the most difficult things is placing the notes in the view, with proper quantization. (Doing it without, is quite difficult to place with any strong timing accuracies, hence, bringing you back to quantizing to help yourself out. :( ) But - dotted note lengths? Wholey schidt! Talk about even FURTHER pain in the a! Anything outside of 4/4 quantization is extremely difficult to do. I've had to do the note placements by eye and ear. I got them in to their satisfactory positions but ... is it really worth the time required? (I don't remember ever having troubles like this working with the few versions of Fruity Loops that I did in the late 90's and / or early 2000's.) Next - changing things over time. Recording wise, you have _ONE_ set of effects, for the entire collection of tracks in the sequence. Not, per track, like the other sequencers that I've seen so far. That helps to take away from the 'mood' of the piece if you're using an effect to help accentuate a sound. (I was using Filter Cutoff and Resonance on one of the presets to give it some animation through the 1st 24 bars. As soon as I added a bassline, IT had the same effect applied to it. Nope. Can't do that. Thereby, lost the Cutoff/Resonance changes. :( ) Next - trying to zoom in and out of the track you're working on as well as moving the track along to look at it further into the tune? A horrible method for doing both of those! I haven't seen that many sequencers yet, but their method IS by far, the worst way of doing it that I've yet seen on the i-Pad 3. :( Next - volume changes have to be done note by note. They can't be recorded over time. Overall - composing by manual placing notes (as opposed to recording things by playing live) in the current version, takes way, way too much time away from the creative flow. It shore looks great but ....Version: 1.4.1
✓ Just overly complicatedI bought this a while back and it was really good because i was able to create music and cool beats nice and simply with its old layout. But now it is just too complicated and i dont even know where to start when i wanna create new beats which is so frustrating. Please update the app and return it to its original form and i think it will be appreciated by many other users..Version: 3.1.50
✓ Network errorKeeps saying there is a network error or storage error when there’s nothing wrong with my storage and network, I’ve tried everything.Version: 4.2.5
✓ Recent updates cause problemsAs someone who uses this app practically everyday, it’s extremely noticeable to me when a new update has been brought out. With each new update, there are new bugs as well. It can be extremely aggravating when one moment something works, and then an update is released, which immediately causes it to stop working or not function as intended. As of now, I am having problems with the DW Sampler, as trying to load certain DWP files now simply doesn’t work, despite them having worked before. I’m hoping this is something which is patched soon, and that future updates don’t heavily impact the software and break other elements of it too much. However, this is still an app which I enjoy using. Essentially all my songs and sound design is centred around this app, and I would recommend this app to anyone looking for a good starting point!.Version: 4.3.13
✓ Missing Basic Functions and AUv3This app wouldn’t be so much of a problem if it weren’t for the fact that this app doesn’t allow a free splitting feature that GarageBand offers, but rather a cutting feature that only works if you add multiple loops. This is ridiculous considering how often I have to fix complex patterns in audio/midi sequences. It’s more than time consuming to have to duplicate and then trim track after track. Also not to mention how you can’t properly change the pitch and tempo separately. There’re more things I can rant on about, but those primarily are the reasons why this app is so lacking from the very start you open this app. Unfortunately, despite such great tools of virtual instruments and probably one of the most helpful effects I've found in an iPad fixed DAW, the basic audio editing features are less than user-friendly. Because of this, I have to resort to neglecting most of FLSM’s potentially fantastic and integral features for GarageBand’s simple editing components. Simple yes, but undoubtedly important for a digital audio workstation. Please, I beg of you to change my opinion for this beautiful looking app..Version: 3.2.61
✓ Poor app if you want to make songsIf you want to make “beats” or sample someone else’s work then this app might be for you but if you actually want to make your own music then I’d recommend Music Studio by Xeton. It has a lot more instruments to choose from (strings, brass, woodwind, percussion, electronic, guitars and so on). It’s like having the wrecking crew at your finger tips. It’s also a lot easier to use and I had a great understanding of the app in no time. Oh, and Music Studio is also cheaper. I believe FL Studio is more suited to people who want to make electronic music. The choice of non electronic instruments is shocking..Version: 3.1.941
✓ Needs improvementI purchased this app on the impression that you can upload music from iTunes to remix etc. This cannot be done, even after spending a lot of time researching if it can be done, the answer thus far is no! Instead it leads you to have to purchase the pc/Mac version at a far higher price which even still may not allow you to upload music..Version: 3.2.20
✓ Mp3 qualityWhen you convert to mp3 the quality is horrible.Version: 4.3.13
✓ New update too difficultI'm disappointed with the new update fl studio has had recently, it is too hard to make a simple drumbeat and I can't even find where the Kim's and claps are..Version: 3.1.62
✓ Good DAW (but missing vital features)One of the best workflow daws out there but it’s let down by some major shortcomings. No auv3 support, which would have been fine if we could “freeze/render to new audio track” but you can’t even do that. Gotta solo each track and render project one by one then menu dive and drag the audio in..Version: 3.6.17
✓ Useless without swing!You can’t add swing to any instruments! I repeat, you CANNOT SWING YOUR MUSIC! Everything has to be stiff and straight, completely locked to a grid. It can’t make serious music, and it’s not even good just for fleshing out ideas, because the timing is so bad. Forget about pop, house, funk, jazz, anything electronica, any kind of dance music, or any other genre. It will only make little rinky dink jingles that are so frustratingly lifeless, you will be too embarrassed and ashamed of them to ever show them to anyone. You will eventually give up even trying and regret buying this. Curiously, you CAN add swing to drums, so I know it can be done, but not to any other instrument or sound. It’s such a shame, because clearly they worked hard on this and they want it to succeed, and it could have so much going for it, but all the features and development are rendered useless by this one huge flaw. If they could fix it, I’d easily give it 5 stars, but as it stands you’re better off spending your money elsewhere..Version: 4.3.2
✓ Need to update ASAP - crashes every time music importedNeed to fix import function. Pre update worked great -now completely useless.Version: 2.2
✓ Used to be greatVersion 2 had an incredible amount of precision. Whilst subsequent updates have added many features the user interface has been scaled back in direct proportion. As features increase, control decreases. The latest patch allows you to place multiple samples on a single audio track, which might be useful to some but comes with the removal of the option to select a single sample for the entire audio track. So if you have 3 minute track with a hi-hat audio track and think maybe a different sample might be better you have to go through the entire track and change each sample one by one manually! No more can you creat a four beat drum loop and trial different samples, now you have to delete and replace each sample by hand each time. This change enormously reduces the usefulness of the app and is enough to put me if using it altogether. They had a great app and ruined it..Version: 3.2.05
✓ Just boughtIt took forever to load and is tiny bit glitchy but ok.Version: 4.4.3
✓ GO BACKThis app used to be perfect. in every way. it was awesome and I used it for two years before upgrading to my pc. And I go back to mobile for the nostalgic effect. And its completely different now. It used to be simple and great, there weren’t accounts that you had to make to restore purchases (which btw soft locked all of my old purchases) Im not saying that the app is crap, even now its pretty good for beginners. But if you want my personal opinion for if someone who has the power to act on this statement. Go back. Go back to the way the app used to be. It was compact. Simple while still allowing you to make your music complex. And it didn't crash every second. The downloading and extracting of the .mp3 files or the .wav files were impeccable. And now if your phone is low battery or your wifi isn’t the best it could be it will affect the way your app sounds when using lets say an aux cable or especially bluetooth. And sometimes when extracting the files not only does it take a long time but sometimes they come out sounding like a microwave. Fix the app. Or dont. I dont care that much i've got it on pc which is like 100% better. But I feel like more people would download and like the app if you changed back to the classic or at least released a separate app thats just the classic. Later!.Version: 4.0.16
✓ Where does the audio keep going?Ever since I had either downloaded the last software update for my iPad 11” pro or downloaded the update for FL studio mobile, the audio keeps crashing. It’ll be playing and then hear a static sound and then the sound is gone. I’ve come to learn that I’m not the only one experiencing this technical issue. It happens nearly every time I start the app but yet any other apps audio works fine. Fl studio mobile won’t work again until I restart my entire tablet. Since it’s an audio app, only 3 stars until this bug is fixed to stop the failing audio..Version: 3.5.15
✓ Audio glitchThe master track just randomly pauses. (Playhead doesn’t move when I click play) Clicking play again does nothing and the sound only works when it wants to.. it’s unusable and honestly I’d really like a refund unless someone can help me..Version: 4.0.16
