## Description

AudioStretch Lite is the lite edition of AudioStretch, the world’s first audio and video transcription tool. Musicians can slow down, loop, transpose, and transcribe tunes from audio and video files, and even capture video with your phone to transcribe directly in the app. You can hear individual notes as you scrub the waveform, and you can play at zero speed to study tricky passages.

Note that Lite includes feature limitations (max 3 minutes per song, speed range -1.5x to 1.5x, pitch +/- 3 semitones) but preserves key transcription tools like LiveScrub, keyboard/spectrum views, and precise speed/pitch adjustments. It’s ideal for transcription, learning songs by ear, and exploring music in new ways, with no ads or in-app purchases.

## Review summary

AudioStretch Lite is popular for humorous audio/video remixing thanks to its pitch/speed controls and ability to edit video audio, enabling meme and YTP-style edits. However, users repeatedly report crashes, playback bugs, and audio dropouts. Some frustration centers on paywalls restricting features, and there are common requests for dark mode and a desktop version.

### Pros

- Fun and entertaining for creating memes and audio/video remixes.
- Wide range of pitch and speed editing controls (e.g., +/-36 pitch range, up to 10x speed).
- Supports editing audio from videos to create remixes (video input capability).
- Ad-free experience during use.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and instability (app crashes on launch, freezes, and audio dropouts).
- Bugs affecting playback and audio output (sound cutting out, videos failing to play).
- Monetization/paywall gating advanced features behind a paid version.
- Missing features like dark mode and a desktop version (feature requests).
