Mobile POD for Negative User Reviews

No native coreaudio supportFirst of all a word about gear: if you expect sound from the 1/8 headphone jack adapter to be as good as one going through the 30 pin digital, you are setting yourself up for disappointment and frustration. Trust me, you can hear and feel the price difference. I’m a bass player and have an iRig and an iRiffport. Actually, no, I just gave away my irig to a friend. Sadly, the app does not work with either. I would have been willing to pay a fair price for a Line 6 app that would work with the iRiffport. However, Line 6 seems decided to only support their own interface, the “digital in”. Still, being able to browse around the app I see two important features missing: a recording interface and background audio/ ios multitasking. This would basically enable you to dial in your tone, hit the home button and run a sheet music app like forScore or iRealb while still hearing yourself. Interestingly enough, you can actually do that with the free version of Ampkit! (And yes, Ampkit works with the iRiffport.).Version: 1.0.6

Not so much anymoreI was enjoying my Sonic Port as a way to practice without noise. But after my last iPad update, it doesn’t work. I plugged in to my amp to be sure it was the Sonic Port. It works fine through the amp, just not my i{ad or phone. You get 2 stars because I used to like it..Version: 2.0.4

Too badLooks like a great app but once again I have to go buy another piece of hardware. Irig guitar jack etc etc why don't these developers make it (the app) compatible with all hardware (other than to make another buck) I would be glad to buy the app if I didn't have have to buy another piece of hardware. Looks like another one to delete. Too bad.Version: 1.0.0

New ISOI cannot find the new version that goes with the updated ISO of my ipod.Version: 1.0.4

Not working with iOS 13Just spent $100 on this SonicPort, hearing great things about it. Only to find out it doesn’t even work with iOS 13. How do you get away with selling a product that’s labeled “Made for iPhone and iPad” when it does not work out of the box? I don’t care if it’s a Line 6 or Apple problem, why were sales not suspended knowing that you have a non-working product? PLEASE get this fixed!!.Version: 2.0.4

It used to be very goodI purchased this on my old iPad. I cross loaded it onto my iPhone , but now I have installed it on my new 6th Gen iPad and it won’t restore my old purchases. It keeps asking me to purchase it again. Now I notice I’m not the only person who has had this problem but Line 6 doesn’t seem to have responded. I have an original Pod and a MiniPod. I also have an origin 112 Spider amp and have been happy with Line 6 products for years. So how about it Line 6? How about responding to back you product?.Version: 2.0.4

IncompatibilityWas working great until incompatibility issues with AppleOS 13.1.2..Version: 2.0.4

Has been working great, until today. IOS 13I’ve had the sonic port for almost 2 years now and it’s been working okay (had to replace it via warranty). The software has been working well though. Until today. Updating to iOS 13 has broken this app, which means my sonic port is useless as I can’t get any sound from it. Thankfully I don’t rely on this as my rig. Or I’d be screwed. Let’s hope Line 6 gets a fix out fast..Version: 2.0.4

A new twist to an already remarkable idea.The mobile POD and Mobile In combination work great. It a very good cost effective effects processor/ modeler for those who already have an iPhone or iPad. My only two complaints are that the effects are only active when the Mobile POD app is open and running in the foreground. Once the App is minimized to say access a digital chord book such as OnSong, it's no longer processing. The other complaint is that there seems to be no support for monitoring via Bluetooth. Other than these two things this work very well..Version: 1.2.1

Not HappyWas an awesome sounding tool but unfortunately it now sounds absolutely horrible after I installed the latest Apple update. Bitterly disappointed. I hope Line 6 can fix whatever the problem is caused by Apples latest update to the app.Version: 2.0.1

It's a start.Very un-intuitive and confusing. Today's gripe is the fact that there is no independent volume control if one uses the app's ability to use backing tracks from the music library. What happens is, you often have a loud backing track that drowns out the guitar, even if the guitar amp model is on full rendering the option quite useless. Perhaps this is an IOS limitation? If not the ability to control backing track volume would be useful,As well as the ability to select tracks from playlists, not just artist, song etc...Version: 1.7.3

BugsMy app no longer works I can't hear anything and when I play a pre made track there is just a lot of horrible digital noise!.Version: 1.5.0

Needs an updateAs a looong time Line 6 user I am astounded that this app has not been updated to work with the new iOS. I travel a lot and this is a great app with the Sonic Port hardware. Please fix it..Version: 2.0.4

Is noisy and would not work with GaragebandI am a fan of Line 6 generally but this app was frustrating, It was noisy and generated feedback at even low levels, It would not connect to garageband via inter apps, mighta have to stick with AmpliTube..Version: 1.7.3

Warning - Doesn't WorkI never take the time to rate an app. But when I run across something this horribly bad, I feel obligated to warn others -- do not buy a Sonic Port device if you are expecting it to work with this app. Line 6 knows of all the problems discussed in internet forums and has never taken the time to fix them. The app is supposed to recognize the Sonic Port device, but is unable to. Many blame it on defective cables, but overall it is completely useless with this app. However, you can use the Sonic Port with other apps, but Line 6 lures you into purchasing the devices with this software. Hopefully Line 6 will decide to remove the in-app purchase and allow its customers to finally use this app. Just when I was starting to love Line 6, I've lost faith in them..Version: 2.0.2

IOS 7Worked great until I updated to iOS 7, now it doesn't work anymore, just hear static..Version: 1.5.0

Doesn’t work in iOS13I’ve used this for a long time. It was not bad, but it stopped working in iOS13 and I don’t see any attempt to fix it..Version: 2.0.4

Update your product please!!!I’ve really enjoyed using my Mobile POD but you’re not keeping up with updates for iOS 13 it doesn’t work...PLEASE UPDATE!!!!.Version: 2.0.4

Bought to use with bassThere are no bass amps or effects so this app is of little use. I'm pretty disappointed..Version: 1.2.4

Update pleaseMy line6 mobile in wont work on iOS 9.2.1 I think it's firmware related it was working Fine before 9.2.1 please update app and firmware.Version: 1.7.3

TrashIt started out fine but now in 2019 barely ever even opens. By the time I get it to function properly I’m too frustrated to even start jamming..Version: 2.0.4

BewareDoes not work with iOS 13. Confirmed on iPad still running iOS 12. Hopefully Line6 will update..Version: 2.0.4

Incompatibility IssueIt won't work with my son's iPod 4th Gen iOS 6.0 Works great on my iPhone 4.Version: 1.2.4

The blame gameI bought a brick! iOS 13 will brick your sonic port and they are blaming Apple for changing things when they have had 4 months to figure this out. You can’t even sell it now and downgrading to iOS 12 is not an option. Customer service 0. They are still selling this thing! DO NOT BUY!.Version: 2.0.4

IOS 13???????Since the iOS13 update, line6’s sonic port became useless. I couldn’t find any reliable information about what is actually going on, if this is apple or line6’s fault and even if sonic port will ever work again. Even if it’s apple’s fault, isn’t line6’s responsibility to get in touch with them and, to honor the trust of the user base, to get them to fix the issue or at least let us know that a fix is on its way??????.Version: 2.0.4

Want the original version backCant even open. Do not update. Deleted and reinstalled and still does not work at all! 4/7 no updates to fix. Has rendered my interface useless. 4/13 they finally fixed it but im not sure i like it. Wish they would just go back to old style!.Version: 2.0.2

Ridiculous appWas supposed to get this app for free including iap. Line 6 making rubbish software meant I was charged in full for it, despite all instructions being followed. So watch out if you use line 6, their software is so far below par it’s crazy.Version: 2.0.4

DOES NOT WORKWarning - do not purchase this app or the associated amp li fi amplifier. I have had this product for about a year now and this app has never been stable. It crashes at times, and usually fails to sync with your amplifier until you've tried/failed the manual sync process several times. Do not purchase this and make the same mistake I did - now if i want to play my guitar using this gear, I need to waste time that could be spent playing trying to get the app and amp to sync. So disappointing.Version: 2.0.2

IOS 13 IssueSonic Port does not work now with IOS 13 update on iPhone 6S Plus or new 11 Pro Max. After three months, still does not work on new 11Pro Max with updated IOS 13. When will this be fixed?.Version: 2.0.4

UselessUseless doesn’t work on iOS 13. Means any sonic port product from line 6 is useless..Version: 2.0.4

Bricked by I OS13A tool I have been using for a couple of years is now bricked by the latest iOS update. Not extremely happy. I would assume they are working on an update but the official statement says that they don’t know when or if Apple will address the problem..Version: 2.0.4

Could be great, if...The sounds are serviceable. No midi control of the effects, so what's the point of using the effects if you have to take your hand of the guitar to work the effects..Version: 2.0

Horrible waste of lifeNo matter what I try, this app is a failure, why won’t the app ROTATE on an iPhone XR, but will rotate with just an fraction of a turn on an iPad 6??. The app has no good metal sounds with any volume, but the jam feature is awesome cause you can COULD adjust the music volume to match with guitar, COULD was the word, I had it setup to jam along with MOOER GE, but the dam app won’t rotate in screen to adjust any volumes, it’s either iPad or nothing. I’ll choose nothing. MOOER GE ALL THE WAY!!! And I own the HELIX LT! MAKE AN HELIX IOS ALREADY!!.Version: 2.0.4

BEWARE: No longer worksWith the release of iOS 13, this app and related device no longer work..Version: 2.0.4

Be careful if you own older versionI owned an older version of this that came as part of a package for a guitar interface to Apple devices. The software came free with the hardware. I looked up the software and it showed newer version with no cost. I was charged $20 plus tax and in disputing with Apple they said there was no grounds for a refund or reversal. Shame on you Apple. Buyer beware!.Version: 2.0.4

How to use preset tones?How do you select and change presets? I can search and select tones from different artists but they all sound the same? Even if I select a clean tone it is still heavily distorted when I start playing? What am I doing wrong?.Version: 1.5.0

Decent.It's a great idea, really: using your iPad/iPhone/iPod for recording guitar. Especially since the interface for this app is pretty cheap! What makes this app "decent" is the fact that it's almost impossible to get real tones. Try out any high-gain amp model and you'll see, it cannot produce something comparable to an actual amplifier. What I do is plug into an actual amplifier then line-out into the interface. I just skip this app because it doesn't give a nice tight distortion..Version: 1.7.2

CrashesI've had this app for 5 minutes to sample some sounds and it's already crashed 3 times. The UI is very cluttered, especially on the 4-band EQ where the dials start physically overlapping each other. The sounds are pretty good for just a quick sample, but again, the UI could be (and should be) improved to make it less of a headache. And like others have said, add the sound-share back. It was advertised and it feels kind of dishonest to have a pretty big feature like that taken out..Version: 2.0.2

Stopped working with ios13My Sonicport, which I just bought a year or so ago, is now a brick. Where’s the new app?.Version: 2.0.4

Not bad but could be betterHonestly it's not bad at all. Sounds pretty good and has a bunch of neat lil effects but compared to a powerhouse like Yonac's Tonestack it kinda falls a little short in my opinion. The distortion modeling sounds really crunchy and fun to play but lacks some of the dynamic quality in other apps. Not to mention I just bought the motherload for tonestack which has like a million pedals and amps and they all sound good. Sorry for the comparison but yeah. Get tonestack instead.Version: 2.0.2

Hey do a update to make sure perfectAdd on a looper pedal free. Like I said also please just make sure it’s perfect so do a update. I’m also thinking I did have the previous purchases does not work in app so fix that too. How do I search online set up rigs like Clapton or Mayer rigs ?.Version: 2.0.4

Needs update for the new iosNeeds update.Version: 2.0.4

CrashesUnable to open app. App crashes!.Version: 1.5.0

Thanks for nothingWas considering the purchase of a line 6 product and wanted to test this app with my non line6 interface. Apparently no can do. You guys not only cost yourselves the sale of an app, but you’ve also guaranteed that I won’t be buying any of your devices. Short-sightedness can be costly..Version: 2.0.4

Forget recording with this device5 stars for amp sounds 0 stars for recording these same sounds BEWARE: These great tones/ amp sounds are not available when recording in any IOS app so its mostly useless for recording. This unit only acts as a quality AD converter when recording and nothing else. Line 6 does not clearly mention this anywhere on there website or in there literature and I personally believe this to be purposely misleading. What they advertise is " quality" recording which is only true for the actual signal and not the tones/ amps. For jamming realtime it is great and works as advertised just like there POD systems etc. Unfortunately , and i will say it again, if you want to record a guitar / bass track in garage band or any other multitrack IOS app with that killer amp sound, you can't! I am a long time line 6 product owner and was greatly disappointed. As far as I can tell seemingly all other IOS GUITAR I/O devices have the same limitations unless you purchase there own dedicated recording apps. I find it likely this lack of recording ability is a restriction imposed by Apple and their usual " George Orwellian" ideas rather than Line 6. If it is a line 6 restriction, then this is the kiss of death to selling there product. I returned mine for a full refund..Version: 1.2.4

New lookIt's now very drab. It's like Line6 doesn't care about it anymore. Maybe so... but we who have bought the interfaces would like updates to improve things on the level of Garage Band, which sets the standard for great updates to their product. Please reevaluate and lose the generic look, guys. Thank you.Version: 2.0.2

It's okIt would be nice if there is a foot pedal in that way it would be a lot better...I know Digitech has made one but it's for the iPad and iPhone...my opinion is THERE'S NOTHING LIKE BEING ABLE PLAY AND USING YOUR FOOT PEDAL INSTEAD OF USING YOUR FINGER FOR EVERYTHING!!! And for those who want to argue go and make a comparison between a GUITAR AND TONES USING (ONLY) FINGERS FOR EVERYTHING!!! VS GUITAR AND TONES USING FINGERS FOR GUITAR AND TONES/EFFECTS USING A FOOT PEDAL OR FOOT CONTROLLER OR WHATEVER NAME YOU WANT TO CALL IT!!!! My point IS (opinion) there is a smoother and better TRANSITION when trying to SWITCH effects only using again a foot pedal rather trying to play then quickly try to switch to another effect using your strumming hand others like Digitech ARE listening and have done it...I know others would then say...then go and use there product and stop complaining!! but the problem with that is I don't trust Logitech enough to get it..I really don't know much about how good are they in the sound...but I know LINE 6 and some others!!! I just hope LINE 6 will consider it after all they have it for CPUs and laptops I believe iPhone 4 and 4s is capable of doing the same question is are they listening!!!.Version: 1.0.6

Will not work with IOS13I strongly advise anybody if you have updated to ios 13 to avoid purchasing any line 6 product . It does not support this update leaving your product unusable . If your haven’t updated to 13 than it will work perfectly. It has been a few months with no changes to functionality and I don’t foresee it getting resolved.Version: 2.0.4

Doesn’t work in iOS 13.1.2Worked fine previously, great sounds as expected. Updated iPad to iOS 13.1.2 and sonic port vx and this app no longer works.Version: 2.0.4

Doesn’t work with iOS 13Please make it work again.Version: 2.0.4

BuggyI was shopping for an apogee guitar interface, but the store I was at only had line6, so i thought I would try it. The hardware required this app, which I downloaded. It worked with garageband, and the app had an OK user interface for playing with the various guitar amps. But the app crashed twice while I was browsing amp presents. I took the hardware back, because it only had iDevice connectivity (the apogee jam has iDevice plus USB). I don’t expect I will use this app, since it crashed twice in the first 15 minutes I used it..Version: 2.0.4

Does not work on iOs13Title says it all. Stopped working after update to ios13.Version: 2.0.4

Does Not Work With iOS 13!I bought the Line6 Sonic Port and it’s useless with iOS 13. Line6 offering no help at all, blaming Apple. Line6 support is non existent. Don’t waste your time or money..Version: 2.0.4

Could do with a bluetooth pedalA foot pedal with expression capabilities would make this the ultimate rig..Version: 2.0

IOS 13 not compatible with Mobile PodI love Line 6 and have the guitar port and sonic port. I love the tones and flexibility of the two platforms on IOS and a Mac OS. Unfortunately, Apple in its update to IOS 13 and OS Catalina have not supported the drivers for either platform. So this app will not work with your IPhone if you are running IOS 13. Also any amp modules you bought will be unavailable to use. Moreover, if you are using Line 6 monkey on Mac all of your amp packages are no longer compatible. Apple and Line 6 need to fix this. This was a great app to use and I used it daily recording riffs with GarageBand. But no longer. Please fix the compatibility issues..Version: 2.0.4

No WorkyVery frustrating that out of the gate this app has no use. Losing my patience with this kind of thing..Version: 2.0.2

It’s a brick. Doesn’t work. iOS 13 broke it.Non functional. Apple knows it. Line 6 knows it. No ones doing anything. If you just bought the sonic port take it back for a refund. If you bought this app then tell Apple you want a refund too because it’s officially a brick as of iOS 13. Worst part of it is they knew at the beginning of the beta and did nothing. Trash..Version: 2.0.4

DisappointingUnlike previous versions you can't download tones from customtone. I feel ripped off..Version: 2.0.2

A shameI'm super disappointed that couldn't make this work with the IO DOCK. Otherwise, I would have purchased the Mobile In hardware..Version: 1.0.0

Do not waste your moneyThe app and sonic port do not work on latest version of iPad. Simply a waste of money and frustration that you don’t need. A real shame as this used to be my go to set up for the couch..Version: 2.0.4

Un-aapyCrash's on ipad1 and iPod touch4..Version: 1.2.1

Utilisateur Mobile 6L'application était complète et performante. Après une mise à jour, toutes les commandes sont indiquées en caractères asiatiques. Impossible de naviguer dans les menus. J'ai contacté le support à plusieurs reprises, aucune réponse et toujours le même problème. Décevant..Version: 1.6.3

Need Developer FeedbackI’m confused, I paid for the upgrade on one device (iPad pro) do I have to pay another $30.99AU to unlock on my phone. If this is correct, then the 1 star review stands, (otherwise 5 stars..?).Version: 2.0.4

Mobile pod 2As a guitarist, the previous version worked well for me, it made sense. Mobile Pod 2 looks cheap, unintuitive, and a step or 10 back..Version: 2.0

Good sounds, decent latency, bad UIKludgey UI! I can't figure out how to turn it off without doing a forced quit. How to disable when I've finished playing and switch apps?.Version: 2.0.2

Doesn’t work anymoreGuess the iOS 13 update has killed compatibility with Sonic Port..Version: 2.0.4

Doesn’t work on iOS 13Please fix it.Version: 2.0.4

Poor quality mobile in adapterThe app is fine, but the mobile in adapter is a cheap plastic loose fitting faulty item. Mine stopped being recognized after only using it a few times. I have even been taking special care not to be heavy handed with this flimsy feeling adapter ever since I bought it. It is no longer working for some unknown reason. NOT PLEASED! And line6 is acting like there is and has been no problems with them ever..Version: 1.2.4

ScamApps not working at all.. it opens at least. Total scam. Sonic port won’t work with n e of my apps now..Version: 2.0.4

Used to be awesomeI loved this app, but a recent Update to either IOS or the app causes it to crash on load. IPad II, latest IOS.....Version: 2.0.2

Always check reviews before purchasingThis works on my iPhone 11 Pro, but not my iPad Pro (2020) model. Maybe it’ll work better if they update things a bit..Version: 2.0.4

No tap tempo, no note value for delayTitle says it all. Completely inexcusable failure to include basic features renders this useless junk. Line 6 should know better..Version: 2.0.4

Do not waste your money on this garbageForget Line 6. The app doesn’t work with any iOS device. I have 2 sonic ports and now nothing works with this app. Line 6 is garbage company will be out of business soon..Version: 2.0.4

Hate to do thisI am completely astounded that they still, with this big 2.0 update, have not implemented midi control of patch changes. Midi control of any kind, near as I can tell. Bias has it, amplitube has it. And if they say it's because their hardware doesn't have midi, well that is just dumb and short sighted. The sounds are great, I would pay full price in a second, but without this, it is a completely useless piece of junk to me..Version: 2.0.1

Stopped working with recent iOS updateLoved this app but now this and my Sonic Port won’t work thanks to Apples new IOS update :(.Version: 2.0.4

2.0.4 broken in iOS10.3.3 iPadBuilt-in audition loops no longer work, nor getting any sound through Audiobus or AUM as an effects unit. I have seen this issue happen on more iPads that run 10.3.3. In general i have had good experiences with Line 6 hardware, but my experience with this software app has been a constant let down..Version: 2.0.4

From beautiful design, to UGLY flat trendy lazinessI really do not understand the psychology involved in replacing beautiful graphics with the flat fad crap. Dear tech industry: STOP DOING THIS..Version: 2.0.2

A1 tones but ultimately useless.Five stars if recording capability is added in the future or if the POD tones could be used with other apps. What's the point of having all these great tones when you can't DO anything with them?.Version: 1.2.1

Sonic Port VX not working anymoreYou guys gotta update your stuff, otherwise you’ll get a reputation for creating products that go obsolete after every iOS update..Version: 2.0.4
