Works but use with caution
Leap works. I mean it using the mic and our phones so I’m not sure how effective it will be, but I just downloaded it to play around well I can say he must be very careful with this app. Like me, if you have the volume on your phone and equipment up too high when it plays the sweep it blew 59K worth of Martin Logan speakers in my system. And homes so probably should have used a more professional mic, and definitely checked the volume levels. just thought I would throw this out there to others. This is not anything against the app. Other than they should probably put a warning, but more so people don’t play with the volume up too loud.

Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it! Version 5.1.2 now has a warning that pops up if the iPhone volume is high when a measurement is started. The quick start instructions also say to turn the volume down, but I get that not everyone is going to read them (https://housecurve.com/help), so the warning was a good idea, thanks!
One of the best Audiophile Apps on iPhone!
Originally, I really had no clue what this app was but after one week in which I wanted to use REW to tune my Hi-Fi Rooms, I decided to give this app a try and after reading the guides on HouseCurve’s website, I setup tests through my main system, and after much tinkering with settings in both HouseCurve and Roon, I can happily confirm and report that this amazing app has helped my Hi-Fi system sound better than ever!!!!
Also if you’re annoyed about the $10 tuning payment, that’s all you have to pay, no more or less, and way cheaper than doing tuning with a measuring mic along with something like REW, and it’s a lot simpler to use HouseCurve anyways as well!!!
Seriously, give it a try, and I believe you won’t regret it.

Works very well to generate FIR for Roon convolution
Picked up external sweep signal well. Flawless with calibrated UMik-1 running into current Mac.
Awesome App
This is a great and low cost App to run multiple sound optimisations and room corrections. With few enhancements in the plot multi-curve visualisation section it will become even better.
Kudos to the team that created this and supporting it!

Worth every penny and then some
This can be used with a parametric or graphic equalizer and you don’t have to buy a a microphone….you just use your phone. Buy it, you will love it!
Fixed my tiny room. Stunning app.
Quite stunned by the difference this app has made. An app and my phone was all it took and within a very short time my listening experience has been utterly transformed to something amazing.
Thank you!
This was exactly what i was looking for! Breathed life into my system
Very Useful
This app gives great information and the tutorials explain everything in detail. It’s so convenient using just my phone. I’ve learned a lot using it and reading the tutorials over the past year. I’ve used it on multiple car and home systems to find proper crossover settings, align phase and integrate subwoofers.

Easy to use, great results and tremendous value. Recommended highly

A simpler approach with Roon
I, like many others, use Roon. This app allows me to perform room correction on my iPad with a test signal routed through Roon. The developer put together some VERY GOOD documentation on how to do this. The results for me were solid. Overall clarity is noticeably better.
For Roon users, the app produces a convolution filter that you can directly import, assuming you pay for the in-app $8 bundle purchase that is required. For me, it was well worth it. I found the overall approach MUCH simpler than the common REW + UMIK-1 path that many forums recommend.
One slight issue I had was I could not start over from scratch without uninstalling and reinstalling the app. The delete button would not remove all the curves. Could be user error, but the documentation is straightforward on how to do it, and it did not work for me.

Thanks for sharing your experience! There are two default target curves (B&K, Harman) that can't be deleted, maybe that's what you saw? If not, please reach out to support@housecurve.com, I'd be interested in learning more.
