???
It must just be me or is the button is wired up in reverse! The audio is significantly worse with this on. Is it just a mono stereo switch as the stereo image is crushed by it. Any airy treble seems to vanish. All it seems to do is move mids into the centre which might help people with poor hearing with intelligibility. I tried a pair of studio grade cans then a cheap pair of buds but both are better with the before audio with a pixilated picture.Show lesshdrercbmk
IOS update death knell for app
Unfortunately the update to cover IOS 14, still renders ITunecompatibility useless, I have Apple Music, but due to Apple restrictions, I cannot connect to my librarygoldfish1203
Broken by ios14
Will not open since upgrading. Was enjoying what sounds to me like a midrange boost and change in stereo mix.west3433
iOS 14 😭
I loved Iris, but the app won't open now I updated my phone - HELP xxMMandzzzckd
Snake oil?
Seems like a bit of a scam. Way too vague about what their technology actually does and switching between the normal version of a track and the iris version seems to bump up the volume and change the channels so you can’t accurately compare the 2 versions. Seems to me like this is mostly just an expensive equaliser with flashy marketing.Show lesstimotheos100
Can’t Register
Registration doesn't work. My email addresses are not seen as valid and there’ no explanation on how to get a Fast Track code. I’m interested in how this technology can work with Flexound Augmented Audio speakers.Bobber Barry
Frequency shuffling?
My initial impression is similarity to the Waves PS22 plugin that shuffles frequencies between the left and right channel and enables the reduction of stereo information specifically in lower frequencies. This adds impact and perceived level but also takes away stereo ambience. In some tracks I auditioned, instruments that were formally separated were almost on top of each other. In short, the sound is different but not better for me. It’s hard to improve upon tracks already mixed and mastered by world class engineers, although a case can be made that listening on headphones is a binaural experience that widens the stereo image beyond what the mix and mastering engineer intended. I can understand the plausibility of this algorithm but it’s just not for me.Show lessCastle1925
Unwilling to provide Apple Music access?
I like the Iris technology, but unfortunately there is no way to connect to Apple Music to listen to it???? Pure stupidity! Apparently they are only trying to sell their $400 USD headphones.
I also have Tidal, and again no way to access it, only Spotify and iTunes - and iTunes could not connect properly. As an audio engineer and musician - I can tell you, you are going to lose a lot of customers until you get this fixed and stop trying to sell Iris only through use of your headphones!Show lessBrettDreamer

Thanks for the feedback. We're happy to hear you like the technology. As the app is a beta app full integration with other streaming platforms isn't in our plans, the IRIS App is designed as a demo of our technology. Full integrations take an incredible amount of agreement on the streaming partner side, which is a key limitation here. For now the IRIS Flow Headphones are the way to Listen Well unlimited. However, who knows what the future may hold!Unreal
Adds depth and clarity just as advertised. I was astonished how much detail I was missing from my music.
I tried it on both my Bose over ears and AirPod pros and it definitely makes a difference. Just ordered my set of Flow RBR editions.
The only con is I find the app cuts off and isn’t really compatible with the AirPod controls.Show lessgottabekd117

Thanks for the feedback! And thanks for supporting our campaign. We can't wait for you to experience the headphones! Roll on October! We'll have a look into why the app is cutting off for you. Thanks, EugenieWould rate 5 stars
This app is amazing. But the fact I can’t access Apple Music makes this app unusable for me and many others. They had quick customer service and they really have something special here. If only we could use our music...Bodak Maddog

We feel your frustration! Whilst we would love IRIS to be available through all streaming platforms these developments take a while to happen. The IRIS Flow Headphones now on sale allow you to access the IRIS software however you choose to consume audio.
