As a musician, or someone who is started learning music, one of the most helpful tools you can have is the ability to slow-down, loop or change pitch for a piece of music you are trying to learn.
With the award-winning AudioStretch app you can change the speed of an audio file without affecting the pitch, or change the pitch without changing the speed. With its unique LiveScrub™ feature, you can even play audio as you drag the waveform so you can listen note-by-note.
AudioStretch is incredibly responsive and easy-to-use. Ideal for transcription, learning songs by ear, crazy sonic experimentation, or just listening to your music library in a new way.…

The evidence, sources, measurements and versions behind every label above.
Open observations that have not cleared the evidence bar.
Paywall blocks the basics: raised by 9 distinct reviewers (about 1 in 44 reviews we read)
This observation has not cleared the required evidence standard.
The core of the app — not extras — sits behind payment, or previously-free function moved behind a paywall.
Nothing was published as a thing to watch for in this assessment. That is not a finding that nothing is wrong with the app.
400 reviews read for this analysis. Each observation keeps the sample and store it was based on.
What once was free software has now turned to the paywall. Going as far as limiting how much of a file you can listen to without paying. My rating will now indefinitely remain at 1 star, and I will uninstall this app. "Please let us know…
limiting to 3 minutes behind a paywall, Shame
wow. another app that makes a basic feature behind paywall.
A sampled review illustrates one person’s experience. It does not establish a finding on its own.
“Not assessed” means we could not measure it. It is never a zero and never a pass.
No package has been scanned for this app, so nothing is published about what it ships. That is an absence of evidence, not a finding.
Supporting measurements: not a complete list of possible harms or positives. Measurement vocabulary 1.4 · how these are measured

audiostretch-google-com-bandlab-audiostretchAssessed 2026-10-25 from 400 user reviews. We have not scanned the app's package, so nothing on this page was read from inside the app itself.
What the stores publish. Store ratings are the stores’ numbers, not Appworthy’s, and are never averaged across stores.
This assessment is produced automatically. One independent signal is read — user reviews — and each candidate finding is filed under the source that supports it.
No charge stands on one kind of evidence — with one published exception. A finding is either a measured fact that anyone can reproduce (an ad SDK is in the package; every subscription bills weekly; the privacy label omits a tracker we can see), or it is an interpretation — and an interpretation needs independent sources to agree before it reaches the catch list. The exception is a harm only users can see: a charge may publish from reviews alone, as “Reported by N users”, once enough reviewers raise it to clear that charge’s own published bar. That agreement rule is what replaced the human reviewer, not a model’s confidence.
There is no overall score, on purpose. A 0–99 number was published here until 2026-09-15. It was withdrawn because it discriminated too weakly to be the instrument — 44.7% of every pair of apps tied — and because a single number is a verdict where a count is an observation. What publishes instead is a row of measurements, each of which says what was counted and, where we could not look, says that instead.
Findings under One source only are real reports we do not stand behind as findings. They are shown because withholding them entirely would hide a genuine complaint, and labelled because publishing them as charges would be an accusation off a single source.
