User Reviews

BeatMaker 2 remains a powerful, intuitive beat-making tool with strong sample/MIDI capabilities, but it is plagued by stability and compatibility issues. Users want ongoing updates to fix crashes, Bluetooth/audio problems, restore purchases, improve content import, and support newer devices. When it works, it’s a portable studio with a loyal following.
Pros
  • Intuitive, user-friendly UI that many users consider BM2’s strongest selling point, especially on iPhone.
  • Robust sample playback with strong MIDI/workflow capabilities, including external MIDI controller support and quick sample assignment to MIDI notes.
  • Solid exporting/import features for content, including PCM/WAV/AIFF stem export and FTP-based import of large sample libraries.
  • Longstanding, loyal user base with years of use and a perception of being a portable studio.
Cons
  • Frequent stability issues: app crashes on launch or while loading songs, and freezing.
  • Bluetooth/audio routing problems: Bluetooth devices (AirPods) connect poorly or cause crashes; limited headphone routing.
  • Store/content and purchases issues: store crashes, inability to restore purchases, or access missing sound packs.
  • Difficulty importing personal samples from cloud services (Dropbox/iCloud) and transferring external libraries.
  • Need for an update to support newer iPhones/iOS versions and devices.

This was the best music making app on iOS but now it crashes immediately when opening. Yes I’ve tried beatmaker 3 it’s not as intuitive and overly complicated. Please fix this Amazing app.
