 In 2023, there were quite many music making apps on the App Store but still no Protracker compatible app that could load and save mod-files. I was hoping that someone would release a Protracker clone, but since this didn’t happen I came to the conclusion that I needed to develop it myself. I took the mod player I had for the Roll a Stone game and made a user interface to allow editing the module. It would take about a year, but in January 2014 I happily announced the release of VividTracker, the very first and still only truly Amiga Protracker compatible iOS app. In 2023, there were quite many music making apps on the App Store but still no Protracker compatible app that could load and save mod-files.

 +Recently, Apple has made it possible to install and run iPad apps on their new M1/M2 processor computers and VividTracker has therefore been adapted to work on these new computers. Unfortunately, VividTracker depends on third party libraries that do not support Intel based Macs, so a separate Intel version will probably not be developed.
