PocketBand Pro - Social DAW for Android
Can the developers add a login to the app. It is inconvenient to have to email yous to recover my account. I'm sure yous feel the same way too. - the devs that is
I pay for my apps so I don't see ads. I still see ads. Wasted my money. Also, the interface is atrocious. You have to stop, hit save, and start again to hear any changes you made. Real-time processing is practically assumed for a DAW. I'm not even talking intensive FM synthesis here. I can't add a single MIDI note without having to save and replay. I could get over all that, but the one star review is because of the ads on a paid app.
Very nice app. I've been looking for something I could use to make beats on-the-go. This works perfect for me. My only gripe is that I have no way to end a Collab Session if I accidentally start one. Please fix this in the next update!
The arpeggiator is wonky time to time because after you pick four notes and if you like the sound,but want to change the sound or the order of the notes,it completely reareanges them. Might be because of the reseed feature after randomizing the notes,but i dont understand. And put what notes are being played as a display (keyboard and cursor)so its easier to harmonize notes please. Same problem with synthesizer,no telling what notes play when except for the few that are displayed on the piano. Also need this app to be access for IPhone users asap please. Im a android user.
It's a really good app, and I used it alot back in the day. Unfortunately I don't see any proper support for the galaxy s8 when clicking on tabs and what not it's blank rather than showing text.
Over all I think the sound quality of different instruments are better,louder and more realistic...one of the problems I'm having is the timeing signature bar freezes up..so I have to constantly stop and restart loop, usually after 4 measures it does this.. Also after paying for the full version you should be able to add as many vocal tracks as you want.after 8 seconds That's all you get unless you buy more storage. But I guess for 10 Buck's you get what you pay for...
This used to be great, but now there are pauses that throw off the flow. Sound quality isn't as good as it used to be. I regret having bought the full version.
I absolutely love this app! My only real complaint is that the playback needs to be able to read in blocks of less than 4 measures. Some of my songs have parts that are only 1 or 2 measures and it insists on repeating them to make them 4 measures, which screws up the whole song. Plus it'd make repeating identical measures much easier. Please fix that. Also, if you could make it so that your songs stay on your workspace after they're published, that'd be great. Otherwise, awesome!
Love this app been working with it for years just have one problem I can't share my songs on fbook. Every time I try it tells me. We could not log you in: you can not log in to this app because you do not meet this apps requirements for country, age or other criteria. What does that mean. I have around 30 or so songs I would like to share with the world not just the pocket band community plz help me.
Excellent community. Solid samples. Simple and effective tools. In terms of android offerings for those without or with only a little experience, this is the best possible app for you. Seasoned DJs or producer probably would be frustrated by the lack of precision tools, but this app can definitle produce the basics of a track to be tinkered with later on premium PC software later.

Idk what happened but ever since the last update, the orange bars to change tempo, volume, etc. are gone and the songs always have a long pause in the middle of each bar. please fix this.
If you know how to write music it's easy. If you don't it's still easy. Buy the pro and alot more can be used. Just depends on the time your willing to put into it to perfect it. Best wishes
Seriously. Its been MONTHS since this app had a decent update, and the forums have Hundreds of Ideas for updates. We know you are busy, but abandoning the needs of this app isnt right either. Make a formal announcement if you arent updating anymore. Seriously.
My LG Stylo 2 doesn't have the menu button needed to import loops or use any menu features. You need a menu button on the app. And i bought this app twice! I had this app a long time ago when it was called uloops all my songs are gone i never deleted them you guys did how do i get them back? Need an upgrade ASAP And a lot more thought put into it. P.s i need my money back too because i shouldn't have had to buy it again nor should i have lost my songs. Reply with urgency please
This app went from great to mediocore and lately lame. It lacks updates and freshness. Still it is a good sequencer if you accept it's stagnant limitations
I am uninstalling this and just wasted ten dollars for no reason. The app is impossible to use as it is not logical. From the tutorial, I learned that every loop-based 8 second track can contain one uploaded or recorded 8 second sound bit and can combine on different longtracks but will overlap so you might have to start over because the 1, 2, 3, and 4 "levels" move the track back and forth between sound holders. This didn't make any sense to me so I am willing to use literally any other app to edit music.
My favorite all ever is now flawed. On Android 6.0 playing stops most of the time after a loop is finished. Cannot listen to any song all the way through anymore. Devs please fix
I paid for pocketbook because I liked the lite version but it's not letting me go pro and it keeps on saying go pro and I click on it and it brings me to this page saying uninstall open
If your a good music producer then this app is awesome for you. Has many editing options. For a phone I put out amazing beats and have people take it to the studio for vocals. I gotta say, I love it!
Love this app. I have made over 10 songs with it. However, there really NEEDS to be an offline mode. Here you could make some and listen to ones you have made without wifi or data
Great app until I loaded it on my Droid Turbo
I bought this software barely got to use it installed it from the same google account the only Google account I have or ever had and I get some creative inspiration that got lost trying to use this app I have several other paid music production apps from the play store.ive yet to have that problem with fruity loops or audiol.and several other.cant even say this app was any good because like I said I did not relly use it when purchased.google play won't even five the option to buy because the say I bought it
I forgot my username how do i recover??
It's really cool I made some hits on this app for real !
I haven't really found anything quite as good for Android. I like most of its features. Its interface reminds me of systems like Fruity Loops or Rebirth, and it's fairly straight forward, fun, and easy to use. End user support exists and has been helpfully human when I needed it. This is not my main studio, but it is so handy for catching ideas when away from the instruments. My only real wish for pocketband: include features like variable tempo and time signatures.
This is the best music making app i have ever used! I use this to make my cool new songs,but I feel like there should be more awesome features.Still really good.
I have made a EP & two full lengths And a Split threw my solo band B.A.M.H. & One Demo threw Erbe Des Nordkrieges and numerous of other releases with friends on this app. But what I grown to dislike is the fact that I cant record my songs that are 20-25 minutes long because I naturally write songs that long. And the other thing is when I'm recording I have to break the songs apart which is very time consuming so if there was a way to record "Guitars. Bass. Vocals." Without breaking it apart. That be cool.
Its just it needs a offline mode and I read the private policy that u can do anything with our songs we upload is that true
You mean to tell me I can't upload a recording longer than 8 seconds? I just paid $10 for a useless app. Thanks
I have an android maxx and for some reason the last note is covered by a menu bar and I can't figure out how to move it. It really killed the app for me.
Great app, but we need more time signatures.
I like this app though... would like it more if there was more time on the loops for me to rap on... ps put some more eq on so i can make my voice clear
I'm PRO! I finally sprung for the pro version & I'm ecstatic! Nothing else comes close! The developers are geniuses! THANK YOU, uloops!!
None of my recordings are getting in sync with my loops once I record. I keep adjusting it and no matter what I adjust it to it is always off. Fix it
I love it. But i have one suggestion. Can you make a way to add pickup notes without having a long space before the note? Basically can we please shorten loops? And more time signatures!
I have used this app since it was Uloops. It hasn't really changed and it sounds cheezy. Even with good headphones and a system. It sounds staticky and distorted. I have tried this app on several nice phones so I know it's not the phone...cool concept though...
I phone has nothing like this. Wish I could export whole tracks, this is dope
I had this app for years and I love it. I've ran into a problem that was taken care of fast. Thanks for helping me with my problem. This is a must have app. The different variety of sounds and a lot to choose from makes the fun keep on coming. A must have app.

Perfect. This app is am addictive tool that enables any composer's abilities to soar. With a friendly interface and collaborative features, it is a place to learn and grow as a musician and songwriter. Sure, it has a couple flaws, but they can easily be worked around. $10 is definitely worth it for pro. Disclaimer: Made for EDM. Guitarists and singers may experience difficulty.
