Groovepad - Music & Beat Maker Reviews

I am just going to start off by saying, I love Groovepad, I have had it for not even a day and I have already made eight songs! (I accidentally deleted one when I tried to delete it so I actually have seven) before I even downloaded Groovepad I was reading the reviews and they all said “TO MANY ADDS!!!” I was thinking “I don’t mind a couple adds.” But I kept reading reviews and I found they all complained about adds! I almost said screw it and didn’t download Groovepad (but I didn’t) I noticed that the first thing I saw on Groovepad was an add, I was a little disappointed but on the add there was an “x” so I tapped it, and as I began to play the game I noticed the adds weren’t so bad, there were ways to get around them! The reviews made it sound like only 25% was a game and the other 75% was adds but it was opposite! Another review I read complained about how Groovepad should be a game but I thought that was stupid “if you wanna play a game download or bye a game, not an app. All I am saying is if you are reading this, the other reviews are lies or just plain dumb. And for the developers, I dunno the game is sorta perfect. Maybe more sounds? Aside from that don’t change a thing (I guess you are aloud to get rid of a couple adds 😄) thank you for taking the time to read my review and I am looking forward to making more songs.

I’ve had this game for two days.. and I already have six well-produced songs. I think it’s clear that this app is by far one of the best music-producing games to date. I learned quickly that the Subscription is optional (though, I think you should bring it down a notch about advertising it), and the game is very easy to understand. Even better was finding out that the sound packs can be unlocked through watching ads (which is a very good trade seeing that you keep those packs afterwards). A lot of the sound packs there are pretty cool, too. But after all of this, I’m still hungry for new music, and I’m sure others are too. I’m just suggesting more sound packs to be added. Maybe adding some sort of rough Dubstep with a few soft elements, like how some of Skrillex’s songs are. Or even a new genre (oh, Idk... maybe rock?) that introduces more sound packs with even more electronic/organic sounds to it. And another cool element some might like (which might be completely optional to the users) is to add an option to listen to songs shared by other people. It would add another layer to this game that (in my opinion) will launch this game beyond just a “music game”. I don’t know... maybe I’m asking a bit much, but consider these suggestions and decide for yourselves.

Very cool app, I like the sound packs and effects but I feel like there should be more genres to choose from and that there should be an editing feature to where you can edit a song even after you’re done recording because I don’t like having to restart ENTIRE songs just because one instrument wasn’t playing or something was off beat or whatever the case may be. I feel like that’s a very big struggle and so the editing feature would make it waaay easier on everyone. I also know I should probably email y’all about this but whatever. On the sound pack Wobble Trouble the sounds aren’t loud whenever I tap on one of the instruments (like if I was to tap bass or spooky, it would be a lot quieter than what it’s supposed to be and my volume is turned all the way up and I’ve went through my phone settings and have cleaned the speakers on my phone.) I hope y’all are gonna read this and add those features and if possible fix the problem with Wobble Trouble.

For whomever reads the reviews I just wanna say that this is a cool app with loads of potential and you should try it out.

I’ve tried countless music makers, from GarageBand to Edjing Mix. None of them even come remotely close to this app! I found this app through an ad that actually caught my attention and immediately downloaded it— best spontaneous download on my iPad. It’s incredibly user friendly, easy to understand— I’m making songs after just a day.
I saw some reviews complaining about a “forced” subscription— there’s actually an X hidden in the top left corner you can use to get out of the ad. A lot of apps like this have it, it’s meant to make you think you need to subscribe, but you never have to.
There’s not as much freedom as say GarageBand just because the loops are all pre-installed, I wish there was an option to delete loops you didn’t want or add your own or edit them, but for basic music Groovepad is excellent. My only complaint is the ads! They are so abundant, I’ve learned to expect one every time I close a sound set. I didn’t mind at first, I get it’s a free app, but recently I’ve had Call of Duty ads pop up. If I wanted to see people’s heads get blasted, I would download the game, not be making trap music on this app. Is there a way you could filter the ads or just make them a little less abundant? Overall an excellent app, glad I found it!

The first time I downloaded Groovepad, I was so excited when I saw that there was so many free albums to use in order to create my own music. However I deleted it because I was lacking inspiration and didn’t want it filling up space on my phone. But when I wanted to try again, I was excited and I had all of these ideas I wanted to rest out with certain albums because the music I created the first time were pretty good! However I was met with confusion and frustration. Now most of the amazing albums are premium for a subscription that you gave to pay in order to use a specific type of album. There are a few free ones but it’s just not the same anymore and because of this I might end up deleting Groovepad again because Groovepad has become a money grabber at this point which is really disappointing. Yes lay, the free ones you can download...they aren’t the best. You can still make decent music but not amazing ones like before when it first came out. Now the ADs don’t bother me, which was one of the features I really liked. Yes it got a bit bothersome but I soon got over it because it was in a way for me to feel like I ‘earned’ it by watching the ADs that helped Groovepad. This was my most favorite music making app and it was a good app for beginners like myself. Key word ‘was’. If only it wasn’t a money grabber...it’s sad.

So I LOVE using Groovepad. I love making music! In fact, me and my friends started a music band called the Canine Felines not too long ago, and I’m the one who has to create the background music! So of course, I was looking for an app like this. I downloaded it and couldn’t stop using it. Until... after a while. And here’s why.
So number one: Everything that I press except for the music buttons pop up ads. For example: If I just click “download” on a music pack, an add will pop up. If I exit a music pack, and ad will pop up! It’s kind of annoying, especially when they are thirty seconds long. Number two: there aren’t lots of options when going onto a music pack, and wanting to play the music. Like there are eight options of drums and that’s it. But the first drum, aka the first blue one, is always the same on every music pack! I don’t know if that’s a bug or glitch, but it’s kinda weird. Number 3: There are some things that cost the membership to use, and are important tools that you need to use when making music. It’s kind of frustrating, but I can handle it!
Thank you so much for taking your time to read this. I hope you understand my thoughts :)

First, the reason I rated this five stars is because it’s by far the easiest and best music making app out there and that by itself is awesome, also there are lots of super cool and different options to choose and make music with, overall its a great app and it’s super awesome and cool...but it could be way better. First, you should get rid of all the ads cause there are way to many ads. Second, I know you can either get the premium and stuff to unlock music or watch an ad, don’t get me wrong I like being able to watch music just by simply watching an ad, that’s cool and all but you should have more unlocked without watching ads or getting premium. That’s why I named the title good but could be better. Overall i like Groovepad and I think more people should download it. Cause it’s by far the best one out there for the type that it is. That’s all I wanted to say. If you can get rid of all the ads or at least the majority of them (besides the option to unlock music with ads, don’t get rid of that) than that would be great, thanks!

This is a fun app to make music with, and it gets updated every week or two with a new sound collection, but there are a few things I’d like to see fixed.
1) Song saving. I had 50 songs that I hadn’t saved onto my phone but had saved into the this app app. After a recent update, I lost all my songs. This was triggering since I had put a lot of effort into them and they always brought back nostalgic memories, plus I can’t find the collections they are from, so maybe they could add a feature where you can save the song to your files. I don’t want to lose any of my new songs to another update because those 50 were hard to make.
2) Collection download time. If you want to get a premium sound collection, you either need premium or you need to watch a 30 second ad. After the ad, the download takes like a minute and a half and it’s frustrating because you can’t use another app or sound collection otherwise it will cancel.

Please fix these two things, if they get fixed I would rate 5 stars ✨ but it needs to get fixed please. Thank you for reading this review, if this app sees this please fix it. Bye and I hope you have or had a great day!!

Best game ever, I saw an advertisement about this game and I saw it looked really fun so I thought to just give it a shot. Before I downloaded Groovepad everyone kept on saying “Too many ads! I cant’t take it anymore it’s so annoying!!” I thought well I don’t really mind a couple of ads when I opened up the game I loved it instantly! I love music and too make my own with just a couple of buttons was so much fun! So about the ads honestly I don’t see any ads?? I am so confused on why people put a bad review on this game for ads when there is none the only ads I see are he ads on the bottom of your screen I and if there is ever an ad that covers your whole entire screen hen just close the ad and press the little “X” button is it that hard? The only problem I have with this game is that you can not do a lot of beats because a lot of them cost money and you have to buy the membership. But honestly I don’t really mind that I mean after all how are they gonna make money? Honestly I love Groovepad no reason to not like it! 💝💞💞💗💗💕❣️❤️ 😁😁

Okay so I’ve had Groovepad for several months or even a year I lost count but all I’m saying I love Groovepad bc I get the make music and song and all my friends like them I haven’t had a bad song I haven’t made yet I love Groovepad and there is a lot to do and for people reading this always get the first before reading comments and reviews Bc they might like it but you might at first I was like nah I’m not getting this but then it kept popping up on my phone and then I said screw it imma give it a shot I have this other app where I can download my music over there and listen to them and I’m about to try and get my music out there but other then that Groovepad not game but app is awesome pls give it a try and if you like it like I do keep it bc it’s the best app for road trips when your board and trynna do something so pls try Groovepad and don’t listen what other people say about Groovepad bc I haven’t found one thing I haven’t liked about it what so ever.

It’s really good game and it makes me happy when I can make my own music and listen to it! And maybe a lot of people like it o hope,, I do and I can tell the creator of this game worked hard to make me smile like I am while I listen to the music I made ir like no offense but the only thing I don’t like about it is: the ads!, there is way to many ads just to get an sound and I don’t like that so to the creator can you please change my problem to make me more happy and give you a 5 star to this game so I’m being polite enough to be nice to you creator and pkaee change the ads for me pretty please 🙏 you don’t have to thought I’m just saying so your game can be more nice and complete! Maybe all the other people are complaining about it also! So I’m probably not alone.. and if you get hate comments then ignore them because they aren’t worth any part of your game or buissness just mine 😳 so please fix that problem. This is a really good game though 🤩😜😏🤗🤭🥴🤤😽👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙈🙉🙈🙉🙈🙉🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🦥🦥🦥🦥🦥🦥🌸🌸🌸🌺🌺🌺🌹🌹🌹🌻🌻🌻🌻💐💐💐🥀🥀🥀🌷🌷🌷🍁🍁🍁💫💫🌈🌈🌤☀️🌤☀️

I have had it with Ads! I just got it and got a problem. TOO MANY ADDS. So many adds I can’t even do Groovepad . “ all access “ I didn’t read it, but hopefully it includes NO ADDS! This game is great, but when I play, it’s like you can’t even see a single music that isn’t limited, please make less limited and more unlimited? Also take away all the adds! I will find a unlimited and it will ask for a save name even if I never recorded! And before that? ADD! Before I can press cancel on the name save it makes me do ANOTHER add. I’m starting to get SERIOUSLY disappointed. Then when the add finally ends I get back to the screen and it’s a dark grey and it froze. Then I have to restart and it happens AGAIN! Please fix!

Hello! Yes, I’m back. 🤣
I felt kinda bad I felt as if I was being a little mean. I’m really sorry and the problem has stopped on my app. This game is surprisingly great and yes, the ads but I seem to not mind. As long as I can let my mind wonder like a kid... ( well I am a kid so uhm ) review in a nutshell.
Welp
Okay so thank you so much you guys are great I love your game, I’m sorry I was being a bit mean. I was really tired that night. Premium looks pretty nice but I can’t buy it and watching adds is okay too> at least it doesn’t expire after watching ads like when you watch a add, get it, and when your done with Groovepad you shut it off, the next thing you know you play it and have to watch the ad again. Well
Yeah. Thanks again! Bye! 😊 👋 😃

I Deleted my favorite app because I wanted to have this game because of that I no longer have any progress on the game it keeps on kicking me out do you not fall for it OK I was a little mean there But don’t get me wrong it’s a good app But it has way too many ads and my favorite game It’s gone forever just because I wanted Groovepad If you have it you better buy an app purchases or else this game is going to be a bad choice for you you destroyed my favorite game I mean I’ll do a review on my favorite game so that you know which one it is because it’s a great app but I don’t need this that app because I wanted Was wanted was a DJ app that was great I got the worst app ever please do not get Groovepad unless you’re going to buy the In app purchases Do not fall for it please I don’t want this to happen to you I have very little storage on my tablet so I deleted my favorite app just know don’t get this game at all please I don’t want this to happen to anybody else. * gasp*😡😭🤯

Groovepad had me want to start YouTubing about me making music on Groovepad Groovepad is AWSOME I play it a lot! And love being creative and trying new things on it! But there’s a few problems yeah I just got Groovepad and I don’t know how to do a lot of things but on the video in Groovepad Store says you can do something or like adjust something but I can’t figure out what or how and you have to buy other music styles LIKE WHY?! This has earned its 4 stars in a good way but I need some explanations quick! Like I absolutely LOVE Groovepad but I would give it a five star if you had that added. I’m sure I’m not the only one who likes this because this is a great app and all but I get bored after playing one type of music it’s sounds the same. It would be an “honor” to play this game in different styles me myself would want to play different music but I don’t want to PAY for it! I’m in love with Groovepad as much as I am with all my others but if you added all those problems I’d play it MUCH more! So plz do!

Ads. There have been so many hate comments on games that have a ridiculous number of ads. Developers use those to make money, so it’s understandable. I don’t want to seem like one of those people who play a little, see a bunch of ads, and write a bad review on it, but this is more than that.

Ok, done with the disclaimer, now onto my whining.
Developers, you’ve got a free trial, then a subscription. I don’t pay to play games, so I’ll just take the limited options. All of the favorited things were subscription only, which made me sad. OMG, this is the first game that gives you a choice between paying or an ad when you want to use the pack. So there’s my praise. However, you don’t need both a subscription AND a bunch of ads. At that point you’re just money hungry. Please, either take out some of the ads or make it so there is no subscription required. This is a 5 star app, but please just lower the ad count, but don’t take away the ad-instead-of-paying option, because that’s what makes Groovepad so good and unique!
If you’ve made it this far, sorry for the long rant, and please consider my words!

I love this game! It gives you so much fun to play your own music! It gives you so much feeling to dance and move around and just have fun! All you gotta do is just press a couple buttons and there you go you are having a fun time! And yeah!
Just the music is great! But this might be a good idea! Maybe you can add more music and maybe they will be more inspired
So that’s just my idea if you just want to keep it this way that’s totally fine. And maybe you would wanna give them a Good welcome! And you can show them how to play. Cause I just got this game and I barely knew how to play but I just pressed a button and some music just turned on, and I like how you just press Vox and they kinda say words, and I like how you press record and you can make your own music, but I got another idea maybe when you record you can sing your own words maybe thats not that much of a good idea anyways that’s my review and I hope you liked it bye!

After seeing many of the ads and watching videos not things people have created, I decided to download Groovepad. However, as soon as you open it is asks you if you want to do a free trial. Okay so exit out of this right? NOPE. The only way to use Groovepad is to use the free trial and have a chance of not canceling it in time. From what I am seeing, this is just a scam ‘feature’ to get some easy money of people who end up forgetting to cancel their subscription. Free trials are things that should ALWAYS be optional. Groovepad forces you to use the free trial or else the only page Groovepad shows is the “Use our free trial” page. There is no option to use Groovepad freely without using the “Free” trial. It is horrible what I am seeing be done and it seems like Groovepad right now is intended to be some free scam money. Please either make their be an exit button to the free trial or remove the free trial entirely. Or you could just make this be a paid app. But the worst thing you could do is make a fake not optional free trial. The free trial is not an opportunity to try out the premium features of Groovepad and later canceling. Instead it is a forced thing you have to do to be able to use Groovepad .

Groovepad is wonderful, there are tons of great packs. To name some of my favorites; Chandelier, Lollipop, Synthwave , and even more. Though there may be lots of add wether your getting a pack or stopping your mix, but how many thing you can do in Groovepad makes up for that. You can also always get more packs (either with the subscription which you can easily hit an “X” once you start to use Groovepad or watch a 5-20 second add) and these packs have never disappointed me. If there was any problems with Groovepad it would be the adds that come up if you hit the stop button when your making a mix. But I don’t really mind them. Besides, this is a free app so they have to make money some way. They also have almost hourly new pack and packs with lessons! So, I have to say this is a great app for people who want to make sick beats. Also, Groovepad is great for children and adults so, win-win!!!!!

This game in explicit and is really good, and if I were a tester for this great game... I would only so to add more kicks to it, but that is a small thing that doesn’t matter that much and does not affect my FIVE star rating; in fact if there were such thing as a six star I would rate that exordinaryly or however you spell that word. But this game has CROSSED the line cause it is so spending 👍 great, these are so good that I think I should perform it like Alan walker does or marshmello or just people like that that are really good at EDM ! Trust me if you are reading this review this is the right one to read cause Groovepad has different types of music or sounds that I NEVER even heard of like “cosmic pluse” and “ultra garage” so I love this it’s really cool 😎 oh and I can’t forget “upbeat pop!” this app is a good game, in fact, you see other reviews from other people’s opinion, I looked at them and most were five or four stars ⭐️! Anyway bye bye!!!

To be honest, I wouldn’t get any other app that you can ,ask beats with. I thought I wouldn’t find any program fit for the type and styles of music beats I like. But one day, a few months ago, I saw an add on Groovepad giving it a 5 star review. That was the best day of my life. Sure, some of you might not believe me, but that’s ok. I didn’t pay a thing, I’m ok with the free ones they provide for you when you start. Developers, I recently saw you added some new types of music, thank you for that! I love it so much. Groovepad is child friendly, and easy to use. Please, developers and other people looking at my comment, read this through carefully and thoroughly. Developers you have cured my stress pop lumps, Groovepad makes me feel free. I used to have stress at school, but I don’t now. I let my self be free with music. I just have one request. Will you add more modern pop music selections. Thank you for reading this!

Listen I may be thinking crazy and you can believe that you can believe that all you want but this game is amazing I just love it and the best part is I can express myself for what music I like I get a pick the music I get to pick the harmony I got to pick the Beats I get to pick everything and I can make up my own song and that’s everything to me and I really hope that you guys feel the same way with me it’s so amazing you guys can’t believe it like one time I got on this game I was really bored like my head was really hurting I went to this game I put music on l suddenly felt better and after a couple of minutes I just love the beats I was making music I was so happy I want to show everybody what I was doing and they were impressed of how this game could do so much thingsI really hope that you buy this game it’s amazing bye

This is honestly the best beat maker app I have ever downloaded. Some of the genres are for premium members only, but I don’t have the subscription and I can still make beats that are FIRE! Another reason this is a good app is because when you save the record, it’s in waveform audio so it can be distributed to music stores and streaming services! The ads are a little annoying. But other than that, I would 10/10 recommend this!

Edit: Also, for anyone who’s annoyed that the free trial “isn’t optional”, just know that it is. In the top left corner there is an X. I am a person who needs glasses and I saw the exit button perfectly fine without any. You people who are complaining about it should probably get your eyes checked, because IT. IS. THERE.

Groovepad is good with a variety and combinations of different tunes and beats. It’s just missing one thing though, that is for phone users....... SCREEN ROTATION! It’s hard to make cool beats and songs when phone users don’t have the luxury of the entire display of beats showed. Tablet users can see the entire screen and press the right buttons at the same time to create those “Wow Factor” tunes. We phone users have to press a button which delays the next beat(s) we press, thus making it harder for amazing tunes. Please add a screen rotation feature for us phone users. If I’m wrong and their is a feature making that possible, feel free to correct me. If not, please add that feature. Keep up the amazing work :)

I really love Groovepad a lot, and it has great tracks. Personally I love making beats, my style is Hip Hop and RnB. But in the Hip Hop and Trap section there’s one thing I didn’t like. It’s that most the tracks in those sections have dubstep mixed in it. It’s the bass and brass that mostly messes up things. I’d like it if you would change that, especially in the Trap section. Because it feels more like dubstep with the beats, brass, bass, and pianos(synth, keys, etc). In the HipHop section I noticed the diversity, which I like, but all feels like a Hip Hop dubstep, Trap dubstep, House dubstep, dubstep, etc. I can still make awesome and sick beats. But I feel like I can’t do certain things without making it dubstep which I’m not a fan of, others may like it or dislike it. Just at least find a solution.

I love Groovepad literally so far. No problems I just started using it. Although, I have a few suggestions. Ok! When it comes to the different selections of music and genre, I wish i was able to mix the different genre of music together to create something unique and creative, and also I’d like to hear some native beats and sounds, and foreign sounds and beats as well. Old hip hop beats, and a little bit more mainstream sounds and beats we here today in this year , including R&B. Other than that I love Groovepad! If you’re into music and making your own sound this is definitely for you. And one thing pleas always keep Groovepad available for people to use🙏🏻💗.

I absolutely LOVE Groovepad!!!!! I’ve tried so many different apps and Groovepad does the best out of all of them!!!! My only critique is that I want to be able to play my own music outside of Groovepad . And maybe there can be an area where you make your own samples or a set of samples and you can submit them and which ever ones are the best should be able to be used by all users!!!! Of course you should ask the person putting their track out in the public if they want to do that but I just thought it would be pretty cool. I haven’t seen an app that does that yet so that might get you a lot more ratings and fans of this game just like me.

Shortly after opening Groovepad it asks you to sign up for a free trial, but there is no option to not sign up for it. There is no exit or cancel button, just the 7-day trial button. I went back and looked at the reviews to see if others were having this problem, and saw many reviews complaining about it. The developer replied to them saying it “offers” users to a free trial and then after 7 days asks them if the wish to continue or not. But several statements in this response are false! It does not offer, it FORCES people to start a free trial or else they can’t use Groovepad . It does not ask you if you wish to continue after 7 days, just like any other free trial you would have to go into settings and cancel it. Lastly, it’s not actually 7 days! It’s 6 days, because you have to cancel a day before. So if you do go up to seven days it isn’t free anymore.

This is the best app for music. I tried others and I was just like no this isn’t so good. But groove pad changed my mind. This is one app I don’t delete when I run out of storage on my iPad! If anything I would use this for a great DJ. I dance to the beats like crazy! I make lyrics for them but they’re too good to let loose! There are so many beats u can choose from and many hits like hip hop and dub! Even techno beats! I gave this 5 stars because it changed everything. I love Groovepad and it helps me make lyrics but I don’t sing them.. I try to make beats for them but it’s too hard to make lyrics when the beats are so good! Bye!

✌️

I have downloaded a few of these types of apps to see which I would like to recommend, and this one is most definitely on the top as #1. Groovepad is literally the best, I just got it earlier today and I have already made 9 tracks!
I was reading reviews and some people said that you had to do a trial but for me, there was a button that said something like “Continue without trial” or something like that. I don’t know if it’s new or not but it is there. I would definitely recommend Groovepad if you want to make some music like Hip-Hop or EDM.
(Would give 10 stars if possible)
