  1. [R1] Audio Editor 2/5 · US very limited.: This app is a no. There’s a lot of options of how u can supposedly edit, from a computer, from ur files or making a new recording but u can’t actually edit anything, like something as simple as volume without them shoving the subscription page in ur face. I should be able to edit a recording with basic editing such as that without having to pay. This is the most limited “editing” ap
  2. [R4] Audio Editor 1/5 · US ugh: no. capcut edits music better than this. don’t waste your tine or energy or money girly pop and get capcut instead. this sucks and makes you pay for the snalles things. noooo.
  3. [R19] Audio Editor 1/5 · US seriously?: you have to pay to do something as simple as fading out the audio or changing the speed.
  4. [R22] Audio Editor 5/5 · US The best app in the world: This app will allow you to take any video screen, record or any song or sound so that you can save it as your own personal sound clip, which is major for those who do not have the monthly subscription for every app that requires them to pay in order to use the app for music or content
  5. [R40] Audio Editor 4/5 · US It’s easy to use!: It’s simple and easy to use!
  6. [R11] Audio Editor 1/5 · US Interface still needs work: Wave Too small. Won’t turn sideways on phone to make it larger. Can’t position playhead manually. Only can pause from playback and split that way. Great idea. All not ready for quick and easy use.
  7. [R21] Audio Editor 1/5 · US Does not work: Functions are extremely limited
  8. [R3] Audio Editor 3/5 · US Please fix audio tracks misaligning when i save a project.: this didn’t happen before, i love to make song transitions for personal use but it’s annoying that one of these new updates completely broke certain tracks. now tracks seem to “shift” somewhere in the process of saving them, i can’t fix it unless i manually adjust the track out of where it SHOULD be just to barely get it to align. i also
  9. [R13] Audio Editor 2/5 · US Not free: I mean it’s a good app but you have to pay for like everything so idk
  10. [R46] Audio Editor 1/5 · US Insane Paywall: You basically can't do anything unless you pay for the subscription. The word "Free" that is shown when downloading the app is basically a completely misleading lie. Yes, downloading the app is free, but that's about it. You get an app on your phone's homepage and about nothing else. This app is basically useless unless you forfeit your money to the paywall guarding almost every si
  11. [R8] Audio Editor 5/5 · US The best: Constant updates these guys are worth their weight in gold
  12. [R18] Audio Editor 5/5 · US Have used for years. New AI is limited though…: The new ai editing feature is basically only capable of performing simple tasks that can be performed by the user about as fast as it takes to type them. Some better decision-making and track analysis logic would elevate the tool from novel to genuinely useful.
