Enjoy your music — record, refine, remix, share.
About this app
Tune Tangler is a simple grid for short musical ideas. Record with the built-in microphone or USB-connected audio hardware. You can also load a file from the device.
Play tracks together so they stay in time, or run them independently. Use looping or a single pass — whatever you need. All recordings and settings are kept after you close the app. You can share tracks or save the whole project as a ZIP file.
NAVIGATION
The top bar shows the app title: the logo on the left opens the side menu; on the right, start/stop all tracks and a “⋮” menu for actions for the whole grid at once — ZIP project export/import, shared playback tweaks, trim resets, and More settings… (which also opens the side menu). The side menu lists Help, Recording, Tracks & Grid (including keyboard shortcut presets), Screen, Permissions, the maintenance area, and profiles at the bottom.
WORKING THE GRID
Each colored block is a quick control: tap it, or — with a keyboard connected — press the matching shortcut key. Want sliders and finer options? Hold the block — or, with an external keyboard connected, press your shortcut key together with Ctrl. Set each track’s shortcut in its details. Each grid row also has start/stop for that row and a “⋮” menu with bulk actions for every track in that row (playback mode, level, balance, speed, trim resets, delete that row’s recordings). In the side menu, pick a preset shortcut map for your keyboard: standard (PC-style, flexible grid) or the 24-key 6×4 layout.
INSIDE A TRACK
Trim the start and end, choose loop or single pass, set level and left/right balance, change playback speed, name the track, and assign a shortcut. Move the track on the grid, replace the audio with another file, share a recording, or clear the slot.
ICONS ON THE BLOCK
Icons show shortcuts, audio source, level, balance, trim, and loop mode. Open Help from the side menu for a full legend.
RECORDING QUALITY
Settings include file format, time resolution, bit rate (bitrate), mono or stereo, and — when the device supports it — automatic level control (AGC), less room echo, and quieter background noise.
SETTINGS PROFILES
Profiles store full setups: recording options plus language, light or dark theme, accent color, and keeping the screen on. Save several profiles, switch with a tap, remove one with a long press.
PROJECT ZIP EXPORT
One ZIP file holds the grid layout, every track’s settings, and the audio, with a short integrity check and a small summary (version, export time, grid size, and recording statistics). Import shows a preview and a warning before overwriting. The app rejects damaged or incomplete files.
PERMISSIONS
Microphone (and USB audio when the OS allows), storage for imports and exports, and optional Android notifications if you record while the app is in the background.
For a fuller guide to the icons and options, open Help in the side menu.

How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be pro.kwiatek.tune_tangler is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
If the current release misbehaves, 1.7.5 is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall Tune Tangler first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of Tune Tangler, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.

Permissions Required
What each permission lets Tune Tangler do. A highlighted one is worth a second look — not necessarily wrong, just worth asking whether this app needs it.
Previous Versions
The signing certificate fingerprint for this release is on record, so a build that does not match it did not come from this publisher.
