    We spoke to Founder of Tape It Thomas Walther about why recording your demos on your phone with their new tech is important to any musician. Tape It is an iPhone app for songwriting and recording - built by musicians, for musicians. We know a lot of singers and songwriters use iPhone's Voice Memos to record ideas. However, it's not musician-friendly; it's often difficult to find old ideas, and listening to longer recordings - like songwriting sessions - is really clumsy. Tape It is designed specifically for musicians, with a simple design to help your creative process. It comes with helpful features like markers, smart waveforms and automatic instrument detection. It also lets you add photo and text notes to recordings, and helps you effortlessly organise your ideas. It's made to capture ideas that you'll actually listen back to. We want to encourage musicians to embrace creativity by capturing raw ideas wherever you may be. Inspiration can strike at any time, and we think the best microphone you have is the one in your pocket. Download Tape It today and give your song ideas a better home.
