SongLoop
Practice any song, one section at a time. SongLoop finds the sections, key and tempo of your own audio files, then loops the part you pick. Slow it down to 25% or speed it up to 150% without changing the pitch, and transpose up or down by up to 12 semitones. Everything happens on your iPhone.
How to get songs in
- Files: tap the add button in SongLoop and pick a file from the Files app (iCloud Drive, On My iPhone, or another provider).
- AirDrop: send an audio file from your Mac or another iPhone and choose SongLoop to open it.
- Finder file sharing: connect your iPhone to a Mac, select it in Finder, open the Files tab, and drag audio files onto SongLoop.
- No song handy? Tap "Try the demo song" on the empty screen. The demo does not count toward the free limit.
What works and what doesn't
- Works: DRM-free audio files, such as your own recordings and music you bought and downloaded as plain files (MP3, M4A, WAV, AIFF, and similar).
- Videos: you can also import videos and screen recordings, from Files or Photos; SongLoop uses their audio.
- Doesn't work: Apple Music songs, streaming music, and any other copy-protected (DRM) file. Apple does not let apps read that audio.
- No chords: SongLoop shows sections, key and tempo. It does not detect chords.
- Device: iPhone running iOS 27.
FAQ
- Why can't I add Apple Music songs? Songs from Apple Music and other streaming services are protected, so no third-party app can read the audio. Use a DRM-free file instead, for example a track you bought as a download or one you recorded yourself.
- Are sections always right? No. Analysis is automatic and works best on clear, well-structured recordings. You can rename sections and fix the key yourself. Dense or very free-form music may be split in unexpected places.
- Is there a subscription? No. You can try SongLoop with up to 3 songs for free. "SongLoop Unlimited" is a one-time purchase that removes the limit. There is no subscription and no ads. The price is shown in the app in your local currency.
- How do I restore my purchase? Open the Help screen in SongLoop and tap "Restore Purchase", signed in with the same Apple Account you used to buy it.
- How do I delete a song? Swipe it in the song list, or delete the app to remove all of its data.
