Ratings and reviews

I love this app. It's a great writing tool because of the constraints and quirks And lack of a note grid. Which is why it's awesome. I have had it for a couple years. But now when I switched to a new phone it won't let me export. Samsung a52. Latest general release edition of Android. It's worked on every other phone it tablet I've owned. Even in emilatirs. Frustrating but I'm still giving 5 stars because I love it so much. Maybe a future update brings us some more presets?

I was initially skeptical. At first it felt limited and I was ready to return it for refund. But once I started messing around, tweaking the built-in grooves to make them less cheesy, I discovered that I can import my own samples! Then power of this way of working opened up! Understanding how saving works and locating the file folder in /Android/data/jp.korg.kaossiltaor.android/ was annoying. But this app is fun, sounds great, and is powerful. I'm adding this to my live setup!

Spent all night messing with it and still love it! I own the hardware version of this and while the app isn't even close, it's a great tool/toy to play with! The sounds are good, the interface is mild, (could use some improvements, but is decent) ... Highly suggested turning up the sensitivity on your display, it helps the app detect better. ... Wish there was an Ableton Link... ... Also a way to mute one of the 5 tracks in sequencer mode, like double tap to mute that one channel.
