Android Apps

Google "Best (free) android DAW apps" or variations and there are quite a few things out there.
 
I have been researching this recently as well since upgrading my phone. I tried Caustic in the past, but didn't click with it, so downloaded "Walk Band" which is lauded as the counterpart to "GarageBand." Not done a lot with it yet, but it is free and has free instrument modules available. I can see capturing tracks with it, but anything editing/mixing related would be rough. On a phone, anything "DAW" gets clunky just from the tiny screen space (fat finger syndrome). This phone (LG V30) came with "HD Audio Recorder" (also free), which I have used more since most ideas can be captured vocally and that will do vocal tracks and vocal overdubbing (not tested that yet). Basically one-track, but good for capturing things on the fly (also an advantage of a phone over a tablet).
 
Unfortunately, the iOS market seems to have precedence on anything music-related. I have made a few purchases in the past year with free iOS support and zero support from Android... in some ways this does make sense since they are tactile apps and best suited for iPad... even on an iPhone I can see some of them being rather clunky (again, the screen space).
 
I can see "forced to buy an iPad" somewhere in my future

This is an older link. The code has gone a long way since. Just in case you want a class compliant interface for the Android. Android Gets USB Audio

Stuff that's still on my phone (hope the links work as I entered them on my PC - might need to remove the &hl=en_GB if you aren't in the UK)... The only thing that's DAW like is the first one.

Probably some others that I've forgotten 

Here’s to the demise of subscriptions.

Unless they offer a lifetime option, I'll pass.
 
All I need is to add YAS (Yet Another Subscription) to my current list:
 
YouTube Red
Slacker Radio
XM Radio
MS Office 365
Amazon Prime
4 personal web sites (all ad-free)
 
Those are just the ones I can remember this early in the morning.
