Review Analysis

Sentiment Score

Negative

Summary

The app currently receives overwhelmingly negative feedback, primarily due to recent updates that introduced a mandatory subscription model, data trackers, and a requirement for a constant internet connection, which severely impacts offline usability. Users who previously purchased the app express frustration over the sudden paywall and perceived betrayal, with the 3.6 update specifically noted for removing MIDI and mixer functionality. While some positive remarks highlight the app's historical strength in audio mixing and routing, praising its intuitiveness and integration with other audio apps, these positive aspects are largely overshadowed by widespread complaints about performance issues, including frequent crashes, slow startup times, and connectivity problems with Inter-App Audio (IAA).
