Please fix garage band issue.

I absolutely love this app, but recently I cant record using garage band on iOS 9 iPhone 6s. It crashes amplitude and its useless. Please fix thanks.

Getting REAL Bang for my Buck!

This is totally worth the money I paid and I wish people would stop comparing amplitube to bias fx.

Big rip-off

Dont bother buying this when you already get GarageBand with iOS. After paying $20 youll still find that most of the functionality requires additional purchases. The recorder only offers 1 track unless you shell out more for a recording pack. Same with the loops and drums. Just stick with GarageBand as it has more functionality for free.

IPhone Version for Bass not worth it

Not worth it. There are much better apps for bass. The iPad is much better.

Poor tone, weak

I am used to jackson J-Station processor. This is $20 down the tubes. Terrible, artificial sound. Overdrive sounds like plastic. The complete absence of tone.

Still the Best!

Contrary to what some other reviewers here have said, I find Amplitube for iPhone to have everything I need. I always find the tone I am looking for when not being able to nail it down with the other apps. And theres the studio, drum loops, looper, and seamless BlueBoard integration! I am not a novice but have been playing in bands for over thirty years. I also have the other amp/effects simulators. So I can honestly say that Amplitube is on top of my list of best iOS investments, based on experience.

Best IPhone Amp Sim

Best IPhone Amp Sim .... Has lots of awesome sounding Amps,Effects,Cabs,Mics...

Great guitar app

A great collection of amps and effects. A bit pricey perhaps but still cool to have such a compact tone rig in your pocket. Although it might not sound exactly like the original amps it also only cost a small fraction of the costs of owning all those expensive amps. Still a highly recommended app for iOS guitar or bass players. Some stereo effects to widen your sound would be very welcome though. I have to admit that i like Tone Stack and BIAS FX slightly better because of their powerful stereo capabilities.

Noisy (crackling/static noise)

I have tried to use this with my iPad air and also iPhone 6+ but it makes a crackling noise through the amp. I am using only the pedals without the amp simulators as I am running it through my Boogie amp. I was hoping to replace my cumbersome pedal board and am unfortunately, heavily invested with AmpliTube. I have their cables and Blueboard and Pro devices…. I have been in contact with support but all they told me to do was delete and re-download the app which I have done… Googling the problem tells me that there are others with the same… Be careful if you are trying to use this live...

I feel ripped off...

I thought the app with full features but I was wrong! Its really my fault for not reading the description fully, but come on! At least give a few more drum patterns and 1 more track to use! Pretty disappointing to be honest.

Not good for bass

I had high hopes for this application, but the features and the interface are terrible for bassists. Not only do you have to pay for the app, but if you want a half way decent amp, you have to pay extra. You also have to pay extra for some decent drum patterns. I feel like I was nickeled and dimed for every little feature. The interface is unintuitive, and I could never figure out how to program a simple drum loop. I’ll go back happily to my Korg Pandora.

Loved at First

Ive had this app since it was first introduced. I started using it on the iPhone 3GS, then the iPhone 4S, iPad mini, and iPhone 6. At first it was great, but as my usage became more intense, I found that the app just cant deliver a clean guitar sound. Amplitube for desktop and laptop offers some of the best clean guitar sounds, so when the new version promised the same sound engine as Amplitube 3, I was excited. My complaint about Amplitube was the dirty clean sound, and I thought this new update will fix this, however, it did not. The app sounds as crunchy as ever on so-called clean settings. Im very disappointed, I spent a lot of money on in-app purchases, many of them on stomps purchased to create a better clean sound, and still find that I use Positive Grid JamUp and Agile Ampkit way more simply because Amplitube cant deliver a clean amp sound. Every once in a while I come back to Amplitube iOS after an update just to see if the clean sounds have gotten any better, but they do not, so I go back to using my other products, like Positive Grid Jam-Up, Ampkit and Amplitube 3.
