Developed by ambient pioneer Brian Eno and musician / software designer Peter Chilvers, Bloom explores uncharted territory in the realm of applications for the iPhone and iPod touch. Part instrument, part composition and part artwork, ...
I ve had this app since it s release and use it almost every night to help calm down before falling asleep The generative music and it s programmed forever changing order is both soothing the almost repetition leading to a sort of gnosis                     Essential app Troyzzer
I am blown away with this app Loads of potential here as well Eno is one of my fav s so it s a must to get Should hold me over till Rjdj 12 9 2017 Update Still one of my favorite generative apps but it desperately needs to be updated to iOS 11 because it crashes frequently now Very frustrating because it s a one of a kind app Hopefully the developer hasn t abandoned it Do not purchase unless running iOS 10 or lower             12 9 2017 Update Zjenji
Bloom represents a brilliant fusion of Brian Eno s ideas about generative music with the computing power and mobility of an iOS device courtesy of software designer Peter Chilvers a fine composer in his own right It was innovative when it was first released several years ago and thankfully Chilvers has now updated it to be compatible with iOS 10 You could regard this as a sort of infinite album a software engine that you can either customize or leave to its own devices which will endlessly create a kind of music that Eno has at different times called ambient generative and thinking music The music never exactly repeats itself though of course it s restricted in other ways by the specific design of the software and the limited number of sound types available If you ve ever enjoyed the work of Eno and others in this vein I highly recommend Bloom                     One of my all time favorite apps richardgrant
This is a great generator of Enoesque sounds and flavours                     Brilliant johnemr
I ve been searching for this app on and off for three years After reading an article online the creators name sounded familiar so I looked into it and finally found this app Truly an amazing app                     Beautiful Elliott VĂĄzquez
Almost everyone I show this app to is delighted by the simplicity and beauty of the app It is a pure delight to tap on the screen and make looping ambient songs What starts out as a basic colored screen transforms into a palette of round raindrops of music as you interact and perform with the app And with smart intelligence built in you can feed it a few notes and get hours of ambient background music in return                     Delightful and Magical Musical Fun kc! Bradshaw
Wow I didn t think we d ever see this app updated again It was one of the first apps I got on my first iPhone 4 and it seemed like magic at the time But I stopped using it when it didn t get updated for iPhone 5 and 6 What a pleasant surprise to see that it was updated It s on my iPhone 6 and seems better than ever Bloom is great                     Thx for the update kittycaster
If you like Brian Eno you ll love Bloom Fun to interact with but just as good on autopilot                     Amazing app Pure bliss FotoByWes
FINALLY An update after 4 years I had forgotten all about this app My Original Review I love Brian Eno s work and checked this out because of that It does not disappoint Beautiful music that you create with the touch of a screen Interactive and fun Great as background music if you are working                     Finally and update tfigs

Nice redesign I ve had this app on my phone for years and just revisited it after latest update Beautiful graphics and mesmerizing sounds I just wish I didn t have to buy a separate iPad version I don t like buying the same app twice                 Brian Eno You ve Done It Again Mole555

I have loved this app for years and I m excited that it s finally been updated for iOS 8                     Great app finally updated WellHungTurtle
I simply love it I ve had Bloom since shortly after the first version was released something like six years ago and it never loses its magic The new version is beautiful The echo option added to Freestyle mode is lovely I hope a future release allows the options icon to fade away after a short while because although it s small and tucked away in a corner it s visible nonetheless and Bloom is as lovely to watch as it is to listen to Removing that tiny distraction would be an improvement But this is a mere quibble Bloom is miraculous                     One of my favorite apps for years Stuart Gardner
So glad to see an update at long last Such an awesome app and now fully modern and iOS 8 ready                     Original Awesome faroffplanet

This app was my first favorite Since I have found many new favorites but BLOOM still holds it s own It would seem boring if I was into really lame music But I love eno cage basinski etc so I love BLOOM Think of it like having a piano in a world where you re floating in purple slow motion and you ll be happy It s a live looper also but you ll never know when it s about to loop so get creative My only beef is UPDATE Make it audiobus compatible and port it to iphone 5s Give me the ability to have a midi clock sync Plz                     Ambien t toiletooth

A wonderful generator of Eno ambient soundscapes                     Bloom Overly Earnest
This new version has its own ambient melody which wasn t in the original There isn t an option to remove it It becomes annoying fast There should be an option to turn it off             Not like original Jensta is

For 4 I wish that I had not bought this app based on the AT T recomendation for a fun children s app It is just kinda lame         Kinda Lame alskdjflskdj
I love this app It creates the most serene atmosphere The only downside is how quickly it drains my battery                     So peaceful (acs)
Simple intuitive Pitch goes up to the top and time interval goes up to the right I think Feels like a Music For Airports on your phone Wish there were dynamic compression included On occasion those high notes are anything but calming Great for work or going to sleep or waking up                     Quite good tony-mac
This is a nice app and all but definitely not worth 4 dollars Sort of limited in features too I was disappointed         Don t understand what the hype is about Frank368339
Entertaining for about 5 minutes Not worth paying for         Meh Akwein

Dont waste your money     Waste of money

A wonderful generator of Eno ambient soundscapes                 Bloom
Simple intuitive Pitch goes up to the top and time interval goes up to the right I think Feels like a Music For Airports on your phone Wish there were dynamic compression included On occasion those high notes are anything but calming Great for work or going to sleep or waking up                 Quite good
I really like this app helps me fall asleep at night                 Relaxing and fun
This app is the perfect example of a good idea that has been poorly executed It has the semblance of ingenuity but you are basically listening to andor watching colored circular representations of random notes which are mostly dissonant and therefore slightly unnerving The repetitive nature of the sounds is creepy rather than relaxing Maybe if it played well known classical music it would be better The mood names are unfamiliar and seem pretentious Ylang Really The colors are about the only redeeming quality to the app I had one of those disco lights that would keep time with the music about 40 years ago I liked it better Can someone take this diamond in the rough and make something useful out of it        I dont get it
Ive been a huge Brian Eno fan from decades back so when I first found Bloom three years ago I snapped it up immediately Now after having upgraded to the new iPhone 4S I find that I still love this simple and mesmerizing app Its experience is at once intuitive soothing and contemplative                 Still One Of My Favorite Apps
I love Enos Ambient music and enjoy both the generated and interactive modes of this app                 Yay
This is a nice app and all but definitely not worth 4 dollars Sort of limited in features too I was disappointed        Dont understand what the hype is about
This is a wonderful amazing fun app I love it Very creative and children will be occupied easily with this app Thanks so much                 Bloom
This app is so peaceful and relaxing Please please update for iPhone 5                 Update
Strangest app I have by far Best app I have by far Every time I use bloom I discover something new such as a different feature or hear something new I love to listen to all kinds of music and the music that you can create with this app falls into its own genre The organic sounds created mesmerize me The repetition almost forces you to pick out meaning and familiar music in the seemingly random notes I was surprised the other day to hear the app begin to play a piece that I had composed and cleared long ago I was pleasantly surprised to be brought back to something that had been forgotten The music that I create with this app plays in my head even when Im not listening It is a very calming and worthwhile experience to purchase this The sounds are like no other                 Unique
The screen looks awful Please update     Time to update
Like you                 Beautiful
Really happy to see this app get an update Its one of the original great audio experiences on iOS                 Updated Beautiful Awesomeness
This is a great app Will be great for kids and music tinkerers Unfortunately its not working with iOS 811 It freezes when younadjust the settings Please fix within an update        Crashes with iOS 811

You can buy an extra value meal for 4 and that will last you 10 minutes Or you can download this app for the same price and get soothing music and an infinite array of soundscape goodness to keep forever Not a hard choice                 A musthave
I have loved this app for years and Im excited that its finally been updated for iOS 8                 Great app finally updated
For 4 I wish that I had not bought this app based on the ATT recomendation for a fun childrens app It is just kinda lame        Kinda Lame
I can spend hours with this app 5 stars                 Get Lost Playing with Bloom
I love this but when I set to listen it plays for a few minutes then stops Can you set the defaults to not stop playing when you listen Its frustrating to settle in to listening then have to mess with the app to get it to start again Bloom is wonderful but this interrupts things              Why does listen stop
