Nice, I sure will use this soon when I release my next app. It is a great idea!


That's next! We hope to make enough money to make the iPhone version. Follow our launch diary to see what happens:)


It's questionable whether it's worth doing an iPhone version. Most iPad kid apps aren't but I think this one might be worth it, since it appeals to more adults as well. The ability to make ringtones adds a lot of phone appeal too. Certainly much easier and financially rewarding than doing an Android version.


We've found a bug on iPad4: we're having trouble playing shared beats in the web browser :´( We'll fix it tomorrow!!


Thanks for the feedback! The monetization is hard to solve. Only thing you can do in the end is to try it out. Thanks for the tip regarding the "toddler resistant" mode ! We'll consider that for a update.


1up that 'toddler resistant' mode; just got this for my girl's ipad, going to have lots of fun with it and it will be more fun if the music doesn't stop every five seconds because she hit the one button she wasn't supposed to hit again.


Hope you solve it, beautiful app, you guys deserve to get money out of it.


Wow thanks a lot! Would be great if you would give us some feedback from your classes. Just throw us a mail: per@discofingers.com


What iPad do you have, and are you connected to internet? You can send feedback to per@discofingers.com Thanks for letting us know!


Yes you are correct! We are gonna continue to come up with more concepts for easily and fun composition tools. This was the first step:)


Thanks for the tip, we'll check that out! We used web audio for audio processing for this app. There were a lot of challenges on the way!


Thanks! We're big fans of Beatwave! Great to hear that this type of app has gained a lot of downloads. We've spent hours discussing and trying out different monetization models, but you'll never know until it's been launched in the end.
