About this app

Bring your 8-bit computer back to life. Easy Tape turns retro cassette files into real tape audio, so you can load games and programs into your original machine straight from your phone — just connect a cable to the EAR / cassette port and press Play.

No tape deck, no PC, no special hardware. Your phone becomes the cassette player.

★ LOAD GAMES ON REAL HARDWARE
• Converts tape images (TAP, TZX, CDT, CAS, P and more) into accurate audio signals
• Waveforms tuned for each machine — square wave with bass boost for the ZX Spectrum, sine wave for the Amstrad CPC and MSX
• Exact timing, turbo blocks and custom loaders preserved
• Works with a simple stereo-to-mono audio cable or a Bluetooth audio receiver

★ SNAPSHOTS TO TAPE
• Turn ZX Spectrum and Amstrad CPC snapshots (.SNA, .Z80) into loadable audio with a fast loader
• ZX81 turbo loading option, up to 3× faster
• MSX BLOAD binaries converted with an automatic loader

★ SEE WHAT YOU ARE LOADING
• Loading screen previews for ZX Spectrum and Amstrad CPC files
• Tape block list with sizes and addresses — jump to any block
• Retro cassette player with spinning reels
• Recent files history with thumbnails

★ SUPPORTED SYSTEMS
Confirmed on real hardware: ZX Spectrum (TAP, TZX, SNA, Z80), ZX81 (P), Amstrad CPC (CDT), MSX (CAS).
Experimental: Amstrad CPC snapshots, MSX TSX and BIN, Commodore 64 and VIC-20 (TAP), Atari 8-bit (CAS, XEX), BBC Micro / Acorn Electron (UEF), Oric, Dragon 32/64 / CoCo, Thomson MO5 / TO7, Sharp MZ-700, Jupiter Ace, Mattel Aquarius, Camputers Lynx and SAM Coupé.

★ MADE FOR RETRO FANS
• Keeps the screen on while loading and keeps playing in the background
• Signal boost for machines with less sensitive inputs
• Adjustable MSX baud rate (1200 / 2400)
• Built-in step-by-step help for every system
• No account needed, and tape conversion works offline — everything happens on your phone

Perfect for retro computer collectors, homebrew developers and anyone who wants to load a classic game the way it was meant to be loaded — from tape.

Easy Tape does not include any games. Use your own tape backups, homebrew or freely distributable software.
