App doesn’t even open
The app just crashes and doesn’t open or work at all.
Doesn’t open anymore
Ever since the last iOS update, it now crashes upon opening. It just doesn’t work anymore.
great till it stopped working
5-4-23 worked as intended until today. Not sure if it’s incompatible with a system update or what? The app will not stay open. It instantly closes itself. If I turn off Bluetooth the app will open but once it’s on the app closes. Please help!
This app is essential. But needs work.
I use the app every time I use my SD mixer, but I would love a refresh on the UI and some added functionality. It’d be nice to have more features with naming/metadata. As well as more remote mixer control options from the app.
Buggy, No Updates = SoundDevices Can’t Be Bothered
There are so many ways this app could have been updated and improved since its release, such as allowing more characters for file and track description, and to fix the LARGE BUG where the MixPre does not display the same file name as the app. No updates and improvements in such a long time means that SoundDevices has completely dropped the ball on this one, and that’s a shame.
App is crashing with new IOS?
Love this app and use it all the time. Unfortunately I can’t access it. It keeps crashing and exiting out whenever I try and open it. It might need an update. Please help
"Works" but that's about it
It's been over a year since the app as gotten an update while the new stuff for the 8 series gets updates. Still have issue where the app launches and when I try to input notes on past takes it backs me out of the app or when in I type I can't see my sentence after 3 words making me guess. If you aren't going to update this app like the 6 series now then just tell us and let 3rd party handle the app or make a new one.
Fixed a crash when using Sound Reports on some iOS versions.
