NEW: Audio Export

You can now export your beat as an audio file to share or use in your own projects! Customize your export with the following options:

Format: AAC (.m4a) or WAV (.wav)
Tempo
Count-In: 0, 1, or 2 measures
Click Track Pulse: Off, Half, Quarter, 8th, 8th Triplet, 16th
Sound: Click, Clave, or Digital

Audio exports include 1 second of silence at the start and end. Your settings are saved between launches (except tempo, which defaults to your current beat).

IMPROVEMENTS

iPad Users: We’ve brought back the standard iOS tab bar to ensure a smooth experience with Beat Note's UX Playback Bar.
Freemium Clarity: It’s now easier to see your measure limit if you’re not a subscriber, and the upgrade screen provides a clearer breakdown of limitations and Pro features.
Rest Positioning: Better positioning for rests when using split drums/cymbals voicing. (Thanks, Damian!)

BUG FIXES

Playback repeat type changes now take effect immediately.
Fixed blurry notation and playhead glitches when rotating the iPad or zooming. (Thanks, Hinrich!)

Other Notable Updates

Minimum iOS version is now iOS 15. This helps us stay compatible with Apple’s latest changes while still supporting as many users as possible.
Plus, various performance and stability improvements behind the scenes.
