NS2 - Latest iOS version compatibility check thread - v18.7.3 OK | v26.3 OK

edited February 24 in General App Discussion

I would like to offer a small service to the community.

Since Nanostudio 2 is no longer actively developed, there is a risk that at some point a future iOS update might change something that causes NS2 to stop working.

I have an iPad AIR M1 which I will no longer use for music (I gave it to my son), so I will keep NS2 on it and continue updating it with the latest public versions of iOS. I don't mind if at some point NS stops working on this device because I have another iPad where I want to keep NS2 working forever. :-)

So this old Air will serve as a 'canary' device.

After each update, I will check if NS2 is still working and let you know by posting here in this thread. This way, you will have an overview of whether it is safe to update.

My methodology is be:

  • load some project with both build in synth/fx and some VST plugins (instruments and effects)
  • check if everything was loaded correctly
  • play it for a while
  • check if everything is playing correctly

So, you guys don't need to be in stress when updating new version of iOS :-)

I will always actualize this info also on my homepage, so it is easily and quickly available without need to remember an search this thread:-)

    👍 Thank you 😊

  • Great, thanks!
    I think that the last resort will always be to:
    1. Save an .ipa file of the app purchased with your Apple ID
    2. Get an older iDevice that is stuck at a lower maximum iOS version and install it on that one.

    Confirmation that NS2 works as expected in iOS 18.4 on 2018 iPad Pro. (Edited)

    Confirmation that NS2 works as expected in iOS 18.4 on 2018 iPad Pro. However I stumbled on a few apps that did not work:

    Poseidon “*depreciated” wasn’t working and after update still not working.
    Sensual Sax and Shire Whistle crashed immediately, no updates available.

    What does the depreciate part mean?

    Should be "deprecate" - to withdraw official support for or discourage the use of (something, such as a software product) in favor of a newer or better alternative.

    let’s keep this thread in topic, it’s purpose is just to inform about latest iOS NS2 compatibility, keep it simple and clean. thanks ;)

    Also not needed to thank me always when i post here :-))) I want that latest post always holds information about compatibility so nobody needs to search in history .

    Latest checked version: 18.4

  • @dendy Fair enough, but not everyone knows what's going on with Nanostudio/Blip Interactive. You might want to link to an explanation in the OP.

    Latest checked version: 18.4

    I thought it is enough explsined but ok added more explanation there.

  • It really puts my mind at ease knowing someone is checking NS2 after each update. I appreciate the simple and clear tests-you’re doing a great service to all of us who worry about future iOS updates.

    :+1:

    i even didn't noticed yet there is 18.5 :))

  • @Nighur any update on 18.6?

    @Nighur any update on 18.6?

    Once I update, I’m gonna report on NS2.

  • Test w 18.6. At first I had to press save several times and wheel spun like it was saving but the word didn't grey out as it should. Finally it did save the project I had when opened the app. Closed that and opened an older one, did some automation. All seem to be fine in that somewhat shallow test.

  • edited July 2025

    i am still travelling at least until 3-4 august so will check/update later

  • Confirming 18.6 ok.. also highly suggested update cause it fixes major bug which allows attackers to infect your phone and steal sensitive data just by visiting of malicious webpage

  • Has anyone tried using NS on the iOS 26 beta?

    I’ve noticed this save issue a few times now - always scares the H-E-double-hockey-sticks out of me - but no harm done as of yet. Thanks for the testing! I’d rather have my data leeched than lose control of my mobile DAW 😅

  • You're doing an important job here, keeping the flame lit for a man and his amazing creation that was too far ahead of its time and too focused on delivering actual value to be understood or valued properly by The Market™️.
