A quick note: Thank you for being patient with us. Rapchat is a small but mighty team of one right now, and we're working hard to make this the best it can be. We're shipping new stuff every week — so please keep your app updated to the latest version so you don't miss anything. We appreciate you.
🍎 iOS (v12.2.2)
Share Songs as Videos
You can now share your songs as video clips directly from the app. Choose a template, pick a duration, and post straight to Instagram, TikTok, or anywhere else. This is the easiest way to get your music out there.
Beat Uploads on Mobile
Producers — you can now upload and edit beats directly from your iPhone. This is brand new. Previously you could only upload beats from the web, but now you can manage your entire catalog from your phone — upload audio, set cover art, edit metadata, all from iOS. Learn more about uploading beats.
In-Studio Lyrics Overlay
You can now view your lyrics while recording in the studio. Scroll through your bars as you lay down vocals — no more switching between apps or staring at a notepad.
Quick Actions on Home
We added a quick actions grid to the home screen: jump straight to your Liked Beats, Liked Songs, Artist & Producer Charts, or the Featured Challenge. Less tapping, more creating.
Faster Lyrics AI
The AI lyrics generator is now significantly faster and returns a title along with your lyrics. We also fixed the scroll jump that happened while lyrics were generating.
6 New Languages
Rapchat on iOS is now available in Spanish, French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, and Latin American Spanish. Change your language in settings — more languages coming soon.
Subscription Sync
If your Gold membership ever showed as inactive even though you were paying, that's fixed. The app now syncs your subscription status on launch and listens for changes in real time.
Bluetooth Audio Guide
Ever been confused about why your AirPods sound different while recording? We added an info sheet that explains how Bluetooth audio routing works. Tap the info icon in the studio to learn more.

6 New Languages
Rapchat on Android now speaks your language. We added support for Spanish, French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, and Latin American Spanish. Change your language in settings — more translations coming soon.
Better Song Exports
Songs now export more reliably. No more corrupted exports or incomplete audio files — we fixed a sync issue that could cut off the end of your track.
Beat Player Controls
Play, pause, and skip now work reliably everywhere — including inside beat playlists and collection detail views. We also fixed the record button not launching the studio from collections.
Subscription Sync
Same upgrade as iOS — your Gold membership status now syncs on launch and updates in real time. No more mismatches between what you're paying and what the app shows.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a crash when sharing links
- Fixed the app becoming unresponsive on startup
