## Review summary

Baby Scratch is loved for its fun scratching feel, low lag, and nostalgic appeal, with praise for the microphone option and ongoing developer support. However, users report crashes, startup stalls, and broad device compatibility issues across iPhone models and iOS versions. Usability quirks (small turntable, accidental taps, swipe.exit issues) and missing features (multi-sample libraries, uploading own sounds, AUv3, saved recordings) undermine reliability. Overall, a strong concept needing stability and feature improvements.

### Pros

- Engaging scratching experience with quality breaks and cuts.
- Very low lag compared to other mobile DJ apps.
- Nostalgic appeal; long-time fans praise it and feel it’s worth revisiting.
- Microphone input option expands creative possibilities.
- Responsive developer who updates and fixes issues over time.

### Cons

- Crashes and startup/loading failures across devices and iOS versions.
- Widespread compatibility issues on various iPhone models (6s, XR, 6s Plus) and OS versions.
- Usability and UI problems: small turntable, accidental control taps, and inability to close with a swipe.
- Missing essential features like saving a library of samples, uploading own files, AUv3 support, and saving recordings.
- In-app glitches and performance hiccups during scratching and play (lag, stuttering, display glitches).
