Tips and troubleshooting

Quick fixes for the most common questions.

  • Apple Music track won’t open? Check that your Apple Music subscription is active.
  • Stems not appearing? Separation runs in the background — you’ll be notified when it’s ready; large songs take longer.
  • Loops missing on another device? Give iCloud a moment to sync, and make sure you’re signed in to the same Apple Account.
  • Nothing recorded in Play along? Music Looper needs microphone access — check it in the iOS Settings app under Music Looper.
  • Out of free analyses or separations? Without a subscription you get 5 of each every month; the count starts again next month. Analysis also has a daily limit that resets tomorrow.
  • Stems waiting to download? They download automatically on Wi‑Fi only. On cellular, tap the row in Processing to download now, or turn the Wi‑Fi-only setting off.
  • Other apps’ music stops when you play? Turn on Play with other apps in Settings to keep it playing (Lock Screen and headphone controls are then unavailable).
