Music transcription software (for learning songs by ear) on ios?

iOS and iPadOS

Hello,
I play the saxophone and the piano and I learn songs by ear. On the pc I use transcribe to full satisfaction with nvda. I would also like to practice on ios (more portable) with a headphone however but not sure if there is any accessible transcription software (that at least allows you to slow down music without changing the pitch and also easily skip backwards/forwards in a song or better yet create and jump between loops).
Has anyone got any experience with this?
Thanks in advance for any info,
Greetings, Anouk,

Hello, I did some more searching and found anytune (i have the pro plus version with extension to be able to use it with external bt keyboard). I have only been able to import a file so far and decrease its speed but that did work well.
It seems to have more options then amazing slow downer which was mentioned before.
I also tried garageband but could not find there quickly what i needed and another app transcribe plus did not seem very accessible.
I could change speed when disabling vo but then my phone an iphone se 2020 crashed.
So so far I am having the most luck with anytune. Have to test it further though to see if i ca nget loops to work.

I use that app all the time. It works great with Voiceover.

I use to use that app before... Last time I used it, it was accessible. How is the accessibility now since you use it?

Hi, sorry that it has been so long, havent used this software in a while but have now gotten back to it. I use fairly basic options like slowing a track down and speeding a track up, creating 2 marks and then a loop betweenthem that then can replay so that you can hear a small part of a song over and over.
So for what I use it this app is accessible and it does what I want but I am not sure about more advanced features.
