Audiobus: Use your music apps together.
What is Audiobus? — Audiobus is an award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you use your other music apps together. Chain effects on your favourite synth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app like GarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface output for each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive a synth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDI keyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear. And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.
Download on the App StoreAudiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.
How to gift IAP purchases? (Also: good music apps for toddlers?)
I want to send someone an app as a gift which is a free download with full version IAP unlock. Since it shows up as a “free” app in the store, it has no “Gift App” option.
This app looks like a good gift for a toddler, any other suggestions?

Not sure about gifting IAPs but Bebot is an adorable app for a kid. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bebot-robot-synth/id300309944
I think you'd pretty much have to just gift App Store credits and tell the parents how to redeem them.
Tiny Orchestra, I think is still FREE, usually $2.99 for kids.

Are all really fun and awesome for little kids to play with music.
Yeah, that’s what I figured; seems like it would be an extra hassle for the parent in question, so I found a couple I could send directly—I hear they’re enjoying them lots in case any one is interested!

@DukeWonder the robot looks amazing! I might get it for myself some time.
I looked at the various ones with bands but I think they’re aimed for older little-ones. Will keep them in mind for the next year or two, although who knows what’ll be around by then.
Thanks and happy holidays!
