SplitFire AI: Watch - Apple Watch Beta

Try the SplitFire AI: Watch beta and control your bass backing tracks from your wrist.

SplitFire AI: Watch Beta

SplitFire AI: Watch is now available in public beta. The Apple Watch app is built for bass players who want quick playback control during practice without reaching for a phone.

What the watch app does

With SplitFire AI: Watch, you can manage backing tracks from your wrist while you play. It is designed for short, practical actions during practice sessions: start, stop, loop, adjust, and move on.

Why an Apple Watch app?

When you are in the middle of a song, even a small interruption can break focus. SplitFire AI: Watch helps with that by giving you:

  • Start and stop playback from your wrist
  • Tempo and volume control without stepping away from your instrument
  • Section looping for repetition and problem spots
  • Quick access to your track library
  • Playback progress at a glance

It works well for solo practice, rehearsals, and situations where discreet control matters.
