cut&loop is an audio player that lets you cue and repeat language-learning audio, podcasts, lecture and meeting recordings, drama CDs, and generated audio at the phrase level.
With automatic phrase splitting based on silence detection, AB repeat, pause insertion, variable speed playback, and transcription, it makes re-listening and focused practice much easier.
From when you select your first audio, you can try ad-free and background playback with no subscription for a limited time. After 3 days, removing ads and using background playback requires an in-app purchase. No account is required.
Main features
• Automatic phrase splitting using silence detection for easy phrase cueing
• AB repeat, pause insertion, and 0.5×–2.5× playback speed
• Transcription and translation, plus pronunciation checks with speech recognition
• Audio recording and automatic playback of recorded audio
• Sleep Timer (iOS 18.4 or later)
Works with audio from your music library, files, and downloaded podcasts (some content, such as DRM-protected audio and audio from the Books app, is not supported).
I really like how this gives me the ability to easily adjust custom AB points I’ve already made (plus or minus 0.1 of a second), enabling fine-grained control over my audio when the auto-segmentation function cuts them a little too early or late (which works very well the majority of the time).One improvement I’d like to see: the ability to hide the “next/previous track” buttons. I spend a lot of time working with one file at a time, and having the fast forward/rewind buttons so close to those buttons causes me to skip to another file very often by accident when I’m using the app while running. Maybe this could be improved by adding a simplified car/workout listening mode? Thanks for your consideration.

Thanks for your review.Regarding your request to customize the player controls, it may be difficult to address right away, but I’d like to explore a simpler playback mode that helps prevent accidental taps while running—one that makes it easier to play/pause without having to look at the screen.Thank you for your valuable feedback.
Very useful and intuitive

I've been really enjoying using this app for language learning practice. I have one feature request to ask for: a randomize button so that I can shuffle through playlists rather than hearing the same sequence all the time. Thanks to the developer for this great app!
Almost amazing

It chops up the audio into phrases for you and let’s you repeat them etc. This feature is quite convenient. The only problem is that it’s cutting too much off my files and it lets you go in and manually fix it but I would need to do it for about half of the files and that’s too much work. This app has tons of potential.
Developer Response
Thank you for your feedback!Regarding the excessive cutting, it might be improved by turning on the "Add a short phrase to the previous or next phrase" option in the "Split Phrases" of the Edit Screen. Additionally, adjusting other parameters within the "Split Phrases" might also lead to improvements.If you haven't tried these adjustments yet, please give it a try!
Great for languages, just like it advertises

Fantastic app!! Exactly what I was looking for. Easily repeat sections of an audio file X times then move on. Thank you for developing this program, I’m grateful for the work you’ve put into it and plan on subscribing.
Thank you for using cut&loop.
