TINK-ON
iPhone + iPad / Support

Sketch a sound.
Play a beat.

Tink-on turns your drawing into a playable sound. The instrument works offline with four local synth voices. Optional AI generation is available in Settings.

Getting started

  1. On iPhone, turn your device to landscape. Choose one of the four inks and draw on the dotted board.
  2. Press GENERATE to create a sound. Tap the filled pad to play it, then adjust PITCH.
  3. Press PLAY and tap pads to record a repeating 16-step beat. Tap a filled step to erase its hits; press STOP to stop the loop.
  4. Select a filled pad, then tap Share beside Settings to export a WAV file. Choose Save to Files or another app.

Your saved kit

Your current sketch, pads, pitch, tempo and beat save automatically on this device. Export sounds you want to keep before deleting pads or uninstalling the app. There is no Tink-on account or cloud-sync service.

If you cannot hear a sound

Turn up media volume, check the selected audio output and tap a filled pad. Empty pads do not play. Calls, backgrounding and disconnecting headphones stop playback; tap a pad or PLAY again when you are ready.

Four local voices

Blue ink creates resonant tones, yellow creates grainy textures, orange creates metallic impacts, and pink creates deep sub drones. Your drawing’s shape, speed and corners change the sound. AI + SYNTH is selected for new installs. The first AI generation asks permission to send a sound description to ElevenLabs through Tink-on’s server. Choose Use AI to continue, or Use Offline Synth to generate on your device. Your choice is remembered. You can switch sources in Settings; SYNTH needs no internet connection. AI sends a derived description and duration, needs internet and uses the service’s credits. It falls back to local synthesis if the service is unavailable; saved pads and WAV sharing still work offline. See the privacy policy for data handling.
