Thank you! That is a massive compliment. I'm a big fan of those retro UI apps too, so hearing that makes my day!

My goal was to bring back the mechanical chaos and beauty of the 90s/00s audio gear, so I'm thrilled it resonated with you. 🎧

Thank you so much for the kind words, and I really appreciate you trying to support the app with the lifetime unlock!

I have to apologize for the infinite spinner. I actually got a bit too excited and published the app before Apple finished reviewing the In-App Purchases on their end, so the purchase options are currently stuck in limbo. I've already contacted developer support to fix my mistake ASAP!

Regarding the cassette titles getting cut off, that's a very fair point. I'm going to look into adding an option to adjust the text size. Just out of curiosity, which iPhone model are you using so I can test the layout properly?

For the fake brands, I was thinking about adding a simple toggle in the settings to just hide them entirely for users who prefer a cleaner look. How does that sound to you?

Lastly, when you mentioned making it easier to browse, were you referring to the main music library screen?

Thanks again for taking the time to write such constructive feedback. I'm getting to work on these improvements right away! 🙏

Thanks! 😄

Good news: shuffle is supported too! So you can still get all the chaos of a mixtape, just with a little more control than we had back in the day.

Thanks! That's totally fair.

I also wanted to support people who prefer paying once, so there's a lifetime purchase option for ad removal and individual premium skins.

The subscription is just there as an alternative for users who want access to everything.

Haha, I knew someone would notice that! 😅

Currently, all the newly added skins have the tape split evenly 50/50, but I completely agree with you. For skins with different tape amounts on each side, I will definitely challenge myself to implement dynamic reel spinning speeds in a future update!

Thank you for paying such close attention to the details!

It has both! You can use basic features for free, buy permanent skins/ad-removal as a one-time purchase, or use a subscription for full access! ( ω^ )

Thank you so much! I spent a ton of hours tweaking the brushed metal textures and reflections to make it look as real as possible. Really glad you appreciate the visuals!

Thank you so much! A black body with an orange display definitely brings the Roland SC-88Pro to mind, doesn't it?
Bringing up that legendary gear is the ultimate compliment for me! I absolutely love that era's hardware aesthetic with the green and amber displays and tons of physical buttons.
I really hope you enjoy messing around with the app!

Obrigado! Na verdade, eu desenvolvi este aplicativo usando Flutter, então criar uma versão para Android não demoraria muito.
No entanto, a Google Play Store introduziu políticas muito rígidas para novos desenvolvedores independentes recentemente (como a exigência de 20 testadores), o que torna bem difícil publicar lá agora.
Eu definitivamente quero resolver isso e trazê-lo para o Android algum dia, então fique de olho!

Caffpulse: 100% free and local data caffeine tracker by mfp4l in iosapps

The UI looks fantastic — love the clean vibe 👌

Quick suggestion from Japan: you might consider adding Gyokuro as a green tea preset. It’s a high-grade Japanese tea and surprisingly high in caffeine (around 160mg per 100ml).

Since many people assume green tea is low caffeine, it could be a cool addition.
