Contact Auxy Studio Support

So I’ve had this app for a few years so I can casually make beats. Bought a few of the packs at the time before they updated everything over a year ago. As the app has stopped doing these wild updates I noticed that all the packs I bought have now been switched over to subscription based models. It’s pretty upsetting that I’ve spent over $30 in packs and now I have to re-subscribe for things that were not detailed to be subscription based. This app literally did what adobe did but worse with the subscription mode because the app really didn’t actually improve any functionality in fact I would argue that they’ve scaled back really giving more tools to users. There’s still no import vocals and now only 1/6 of all the songs I’ve been making over the year work now because the packs for sounds are locked because of this subscription model they’ve implemented. I don’t recommend anyone to make any real investments into this app. It’s fun to play around with but this app is missing that professional quality in a finished song and just sprinkled with audio sound packs you have to resubscribe for every year and they’re not cheap. Good luck with this app. I will never ever ever use this app again because it’s now a rip off.

Make no mistake … this is a really good app. I applaud the effort. However, like so many other apps, greed will drive it into the ground sooner than later … which is sad. Subscriptions for these kinds of apps are an App Store cancer. Look no further than the version history … people are expected to pay $5/mo or $45/year (before tax) for tweaks and fixes that should be included in the price of the app. Subscriptions should pay for NEW content and features *every* month — not to fix or tweak aspects of the app that should be fixed to make it work as expected. Again - this is a truly great app. However, I will not use it because people shouldn’t have (or be expected) to pay for the SAME features over and over and over again. **Note: Some months have included awesome news content/features. But for a subscription based app, brand new content/features should be added every single month. Otherwise, subscriptions take advantage of people who don’t (or forget to) cancel and end up paying for the same features repeatedly. When I subscribe to a monthly magazine, I get NEW content every month … not the same articles with spelling and grammar corrections along with a few new articles every 2-3 months.

This is one of the best apps for making electronic music on your mobile device. I’ve used it for years to sketch out songs for myself and other clients. Whether you want to export the midi for the performance or the audio, it’s very usable. My biggest complaint is that my kids are very musical and love using this app. The developer will not give new users the ability to use the old starter sounds like they used to. I’m grandfathered into that. But I cannot share that with my kids. After multiple failed attempts at trying to get the original sounds available for my kids, they refused to budge. I have purchased a couple sample packs that are great. If I had to pay $20 for this app and all the original sounds, I would as long as I could share that basic portion of the app with my kids. I’ll change my review if they can accommodate my needs and others like me.
