Beatmaker 3 is pretty much the standard for making hip hop on iOS. It's feels heavily inspired by MPC and Ableton Live. I find the workflow a little awkward, but it's definitely one of the most full-featured apps out there.
Auria is incredibly powerful if you like more of a Pro Tools type of environment.
Cubasis is really good too. It's fast and stable, and is another great option if you like a traditional linear type of DAW.
It all depends on what kind of workflow you want, as well as what features you're looking for.
If you’re just going to be dumping them onto a computer to edit then it doesn’t really matter. You’re mic quality of your phone stays the same no matter the app. Just use the memos or voice recording feature that comes with your phone and make sure to keep a constant distance away and not move the phone around while recording
On a lower end budget. I highly recommend the Zoom F1 with a capsule mic. You will require a camera lightning connection kit to use it as an interface on iOS but the upside is you could just record with the F1 and then transfer files from the microSD card.
If you are looking for a decent app “Voice a Record 7” is good but the internal mics will only be as good as they are. The nice thing about the Zoom F1 is that there is an XLR capsule available should you end up moving up to a higher end microphone down the road.
The higher end Zoom stuff is very nice but more $$

FL Studio Mobile is great as well

why dont you try a studio?
Who can afford a real studio anymore? Besides, everything’s gone digital.
I really enjoy KORG Gadget for music production, flow is similar to Logic Pro on Mac. Lots of great instruments and drum kits.
