Love this
My only complaint is that it needs the classic 80s memorex shell. And yes the tape reel changes as the tape plays
2023-05-24
wonderful my friend
dear Alexander, your love for technology from other years really shows. this cassette player is just beautiful to watch in the background while i cook or get ready in the morning. i just have a few suggestions.
let us save our mixed tapes so we can switch between them like we can switch real cassettes. if that’s possible. vinyl fetish does that by letting the user create custom records and save the records for future plays. but limit each playlist to the length of the cassette a person chooses. so a 90 minute cassette can only hold 90 minutes of music. that would be amazing to have a collection of cassettes limited by time.
but no matter what you can or can’t do, this app is my music app forever. i love it way more then the default player.
2022-03-08
A lot of fun:)
The best three dollars I've ever spent. Keep up the good work. There's taptic feedback with transport controls, and the reel hubs move proportionally.

Pretty Awesome!
As a child I carried my cassette recorder EVERYWHERE! I would document sounds, storms, winter wind, birds and of course my family at Christmas… funny how I never used it for school, I could have recorded my teachers lessons, oh well.
2021-12-22
Great app!
I really like this app. I live the fact that it has the cassette deck door that can be opened and closed.
To the developer…is there a chance you could add the clicking noise when the start and stop button s are pressed? It would give it that one added realistic feel. Otherwise, this is a great app!
Keep up the great work!

Decent Player Great graphix
Took an idea from tapeless Deck and retrofitted my 1977 Sharp tape player with an iPhone 6. Use this app for audio and graphic. Audio is great and looks like a tape is playing. This is a great by for the price. Easy to use.

Tape player app
Looks nice and functions perfectly

Great Nostalgic Feel
I’m loving this app. Ever since I saw the skin used on the Anniversary Sony Walkman I wanted the same for my iPhone and iPod. I come from the Cassette Era where a Columbia House cassette subscription was our Spotify of the day in analog form. Lol.
One thing I’d like to see is a toggle to keep the screen from sleeping while it’s playing music and maybe spruce up the look of the button controls. Otherwise great job. I hope the developer keeps it updated and adds more cassette looks. I’d even pay for those as add-ons.

Does not work
This does not work with iPhone update 14.4.2 loads then freezes. Please fix cause I love this ap. I also paid for cassette gold thinking that would fix. That doesn’t work either same issues
2020-10-26
Does not play local files
Hello, can you please add the ability to play local music files in the app? Even the ability to “share” files to the app would be nice. I bought this thinking it would work for my mp3 and m4a files but it seems to be only for Apple Music which I don’t use. If you add the ability to play local files then I will gladly increase my rating.

Love this app
Besides looking really cool, I really like the swipe controls to play music.
2019-04-05
Excellent!
Love this little player... Very nostalgic... Fun to remember the good old days!!

Pause / Play heads & capstan roller animation reversed
I tried every button push combination, but when the tape is playing the heads and roller are in the down position. When I press PAUSE they move up. Any help is appreciated. Thank You
2019-01-10
nice
I made some great tapes
2018-07-23
Cool App!
Brings back memories of the ‘80’s.

Nice app
Nice app but difficult to get operating instructions
2018-07-21
Fantastic
This is one of the best music apps that I have found. I love it and would highly recommend it to all of you music lovers out there!!

سلام و سپاس

Nostalgic Music Player
If you have a love or affinity for the 1980’s, this player is for you.

Wonderful nostalgic app
This is my second review. The more I use this app, the better I like it. It's a fun app........now it's my third review. I have been using this app for 3 years, I absolutely positively love it. Besides enjoying my music, my niece who was 3 when I downloaded the app could maneuver the app well for us to play musical chairs. We still play musical chairs and she still stops the music in her favor! After she picks out her favorite cassette cover.

Retro days
Love this app as it takes me back to the good old days of cassette players in hand listening to great music.

80’s tape
Really nice player caught the attention of a lot of my colleagues 😁
Brings back all the cool memories
I like that you can create a playlist directly from the app.
Thanks to the developer.
2018-05-29
Cool
Awesom 80s
2018-04-16
Simple yet well developed and authentic
This is one of those ‘I wish I had thought of that!’ apps. Attention to detail and historic authenticity is evident in every part of this fun app. It does exactly as described and hey, it’s FREE! Much appreciation to the developer for the hard work on this player as it has brought those of us old enough to remember the original Walkman, back to our youth in the 80’s...
2018-04-10
Nice
I like the app it’s coooool..
2018-04-09
Flashback
Sounds strange how something as simple as this can bring back a lot of memories just for making something look like something else that was utilized many times while younger. User friendly and “fun” to use.
2018-04-01
Cosplay dream!
This was just what I was needing. I created a Galaxy of the Guardians Starlord Walkman and was going to use an mp3 player hidden behind a tape, but with this I just made some modifications and boom now my phone is the cassette! Only thing I would like to see is if you could create the cassette look from the movie. The Awesome Mix Vol 1?
2018-02-05
Súper cool!
A great retro inspired way to show off with your friends... the cassettes are just great. The UI is superb. Gorgeous!
2018-02-04
Rockin' the 70'
Fun to change cassettes. When I got my first player I had three tapes I used over and over again. This found much better and doesn't eat tapes.

Fun app

The best!!!
One of the most cutest apps out here!
I think that I have every single one of the tapes! Enjoy!

Still Doesn’t work
Gave it another try and still nothing works except for the eject and settings buttons. All it does is open the cover and close it. Doesn’t play songs.
2017-12-11
Throw back
This app breaks the boredom of other players. It is amazing. Great work.
2017-12-11
Interesting App
I'm a sucker for novel apps like these. I'm happier that it actually works. I would hope that this app would work with spotify.
2017-12-11
Pretty cool.
Nice and very cool player! I love that you can make a playlist from this app itself. Really cool!
2017-12-01

Brings back memories of the days making tapes with all the songs off the radio. Loads of fun!!

YESTERYEAR RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW!
I salute the Developer(s) for recreating '70's in a manner that's visually consistent with a considerable number of the very cassettes I recall from my teens. Bravo!

Nice
Like it
2017-11-09
So great I love it
My iPhone now become a cassette player really looks great. Also it took me a memory 20 years back. I remembered those lovely cassette tapes. Thank you app developer you did a wonderful job. Keep it up. This is a 5 stars recommended app.
2017-11-09
Nice Idea
The interface is nice. The only problem I have is that the app sometimes closes for no reason. I takes a couple of times to get it open.
2017-11-08
Super Cool!
So cool to “see your mix played ON TAPE” again! Very fun!
2017-11-08
Perfect for us 80’s Kids!!
The second I loaded my music (80’s of course DUH!!)... it brought a huge smile to my face! Being an 80’s kid means the best music and now the best way to play it!! It merges two generations of technology together in perfect harmony!!
2017-11-08
Nice App
Love the throwback look!
2017-11-08
Holy Throwbacks and Reminiscings Batman!
This is a pretty nice and easy to use little music player. Looks and functions like a vintage cassette tape player which is a lot of fun! Choose from an assortment of different cassette brands popular from the era so make that special person that one of a kind Mix Tape! All the controls are there just where you'd expect so it's intuitive and easy. The graphics are great. I really like this one folks and I think y'all will too! Try it out!
2017-11-08
Great app
I love how this app makes it look just like I’m playing a cassette tape. Works woll.
2017-11-08
Great app
Like the look and is something from my time
2017-11-08
That 80s Feel
I've always been curious, is there an app out there that simulates a Walkman? This fits the bill perfectly.
Thanks kind developer🤗
2017-07-13
Better than deli tape? Maybe!
I love this app, it's probably better than DeliTape (another app that looks very similar) because it isn't overly complex, and comes with hundreds of cassette tape styles without need of purchase, and more you can purchase and earn! And sure DeliTape has internet radio and stuff like that, but what cassette played radio? Not this one and I like it that way, TAPE has an easy to use interface, and an awesome Walkman style with extreme attention to detail right down to the playheads, from the openable cassette tray, to the multiple kinds of control you are given. My only complaints is that the swipe controls are a bit confusing, it might just be me, but every time I try to close the tape tray I swipe down. I don't know why I do that, it's not the apps fault but I just feel like that's what it should do. But that's not really important, but the swipe controls, while still awesome, are a bit confusing, like VR games, haha. Another complaint is the track order by artist, I don't understand why it orders the track by artist name rather than order in the iTunes library, seems a bit easier to just do that. My last and only complaint is that this app isn't available for iPad, I'd love to see this app on the big screen, literally, because I think if you took the same design of the app, changed the play and pause etc controls to virtually key switches, made the tape a bit bigger, and put a fake speaker on the top, it would look pretty cool, but that's just my suggestion. Get back to me if you like my idea, or don't, I'll love the app either way, thank you for blessing the AppStore with this awesome music player!
2017-05-12
Great app, occasional crashes
I love this app, the animations and details are all excellent. Exactly what I was looking for. It's crashing occasionally when I open menus, otherwise 5 stars.
