Comments on RecForge Lite - Audio Recorder for Android
★★★★★Husni Pratama· Oct 20, 2021
For being a free-lance voice-over artist and news-reader for a radio station, it helps me very much. My voice sounds genuine and everybody thinks I use expensive recording devices.
★★★★★Alicia m· Jun 5, 2019
I use this app to record my audio journal while commuting to work. It has great quality, and you can adjust the volume at which it records. No editing that I have found, but I can record at the end of existing files.
★☆☆☆☆Kim Rowden· Sep 4, 2020
No user-friendly; can't play wav files; can't see files in other folders
★★☆☆☆Phillip Shaner· Mar 24, 2019
Do not use this app. Frequent bugs and devs forgot about this app. Last updated in 2015. Use reforge 2 it was last updated feb 2019
★☆☆☆☆R Misra· Apr 10, 2019
Horrible experience. Can't record anything well, can't play or hear anything well. Default setting terrible.
★★☆☆☆Jeffrey Bigornia· Feb 8, 2022
Started out great... But for some reason when playing back the recordings, certain portions of audio were missing. It's been frustrating at times as I use them to record my vlogs and can't sync to my videos. I may have to find an alternative now.
★☆☆☆☆S s· Nov 2, 2022
Stopped recording more than 3 minutes on update... caused important records to be lost... why do I have to look at all these ads if it isn't self-funding? Seriously... updates that delete features like this on users piss people off to no end. I would gladly have given you guys $15 for good software.
