Cute, could do with a bit more variety of sounds and sequencing abilities.

very cool. you'd think that with the web audio api there would have been an explosion of creative takes on music generation (like this one) but I am not sure it has happened...

I love that, easy and simple interface. Straight forward creation with nice sound. Fantastic music toy to play with.

Sadly people with those skills will make iOS apps or plugins, because it’s so much more work to monetize a web app.

You're in for a surprise, https://audiotool.com is a fully-fledged DAW with advanced music synthesis running in the browser.

It actually is where ToneMatrix originates from, and is still one of the useable synths in the DAW!

Very fun to play with. I wish there were an option to save the audio file so I could make my own phone alert.

Oh wow, this is so cool. Based on the layout and the sounds, it HAS to be heavily inspired by the Tenori-on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamaha_Tenori-on, and I for one am very here for that.

Just use a separate audio recorder app, since it doesn't have to be hifi for phone sound.
