User Reviews

Ruffio is praised for being free and ad-free with easy use and strong stem separation, making it useful for covers and learning. However, multiple users report serious drawbacks: unreliable YouTube import, iPad/device stability issues, lack of export/save options, and inconsistent audio controls (sliders/muting). A few also mention limitations like not enough sections. Overall, the app delivers solid core functionality but suffers from key feature reliability and editing/export limitations.

Pros

Free to use and ad-free, which many reviewers notice and appreciate.
Strong stem separation that works well, enabling effective audio isolation for learning and covers.
Easy to use / user-friendly interface, with a straightforward workflow.
Generally reported as a useful tool that works well for its intended purpose (positive overall performance).

Cons

YouTube import feature is unreliable or broken across multiple reports, reducing a key draw for many users.
iPad compatibility and stability issues (crashes, missing UI elements) and other device-specific problems.
No export/save feature for individual parts or the final track, limiting further editing or sharing.
Audio control issues: sliders and mute/isolation controls often don’t work as expected (bleed, voice cutoff, fading).
Some users note feature limitations like not enough sections to split a track.

Recent reviews

Love love love this app! Have for a very long time now… however recently it’s started to glitch pretty regularly! & it seems as if it’s clipping more than it used to as well… hopefully it gets back to it’s normal greatness VERY soon!!

Really useful tool I’m super glad it’s free. The only thing is that the YouTube function thingy doesn’t work all the time which gets kind of annoying other than that very pleased with this app.
