It has a quest style section to help you discover things in the app independently. The app has included sounds to meditate, sleep, white noise and you can even create your own sounds with the combination feature. My only problem with it is that it has included AI, it wont mean i wont use the app because i love my new headphones but i wish that the developers didn’t feel like they needed to jump on the AI trend with such an already amazing app. If they were to add features i would love to see a changeable app icon with different colours and other interface colours not just black. ### 4/5 — Buttons don’t work anymore *2026-08-30, version 5.0.24* Since the updated version I have buttons not working on my v20i. If I assign double tap left or triple tap right to next function it does not work ### 2/5 — Com o tempo dá bugs *2026-08-30* O meu cancelamento de ruído faz barulho e agora a música está parando e voltando do nada com muita frequência. E o Bluetooth não conecta com mais de um aparelho como antes. ### 4/5 — Sleep detection sensitivity *2026-08-27, version 5.0.22* I have been quite happy with Soundcore sleep A30s -- way way better than the Ozlo I had for a bit over a year. I do wish I could adjust how sensitive they are to detecting I've fallen asleep. My audio often plays for an hour or two after I've drifted off before being paused and transitioning to the local audio. ### 3/5 — 1.0+ GB way to big. *2026-08-26, version 5.0.22* Good app, but takes up way too much space on the iPhone over 1.0Gb ### 3/5 — Update please *2026-08-25, version 5.0.22* I have a P2 it cost 15$ so can you make an update so I can use mine to update can be next week Sunday as soon as possible 🙏🏾😫🥺😤😡🤬 ### 1/5 — Can’t connect to my Life Q30 headset anymore *2026-08-24* The new AI feature is not that important. I know it costed money but in the process of developing it the MAIN feature (which is connecting to your device) is now broken, because of that this app has lost it’s functionality entirely. Soundcore should rethink their business model. ### 1/5 — Massive app for what it does!! *2026-08-23, version 5.0.21* The app is fine, but this is some of the laziest programming I’ve ever seen. Why is this almost one gigabyte?! with the cost of RAM and storage skyrocketing this app is no longer worth keeping on your device ### 1/5 — Disappointment !! *2026-08-23* Anker Soundcore doesn't care about its customers. I bought a pair of Sleep A20 earbuds and lost one; the firmware no longer allows pairing with my iPhone! Absurd! Support doesn't respond! You've lost a loyal customer! ### 1/5 — TOO FRUSTRATED WITH IT! *2026-08-21, version 5.0.21* I was excited when I got this the first time! Now I’m extremely frustrated with these $15 wireless P25I earbuds! They won’t stay connected to any of my devices at all! ### 2/5 — R50i VI issue *2026-08-18, version 5.0.21* The EQ does not give a change for what I’m hearing, bad connection to the app please fix it ### 2/5 — No mute ability *2026-08-12, version 5.0.21* You removed the mute ability from the Liberty Pro earbuds which makes them completely useless for work calls and I bought these solely for taking work calls based on recommendations because they are supposed to work well with Teams. Now I wish I had purchased a different brand or that I could return these. ### 1/5 — Stupid! *2026-08-10, version 5.0.20* I have my gadget playing, beautiful music, and I turn on another gadget, unrelated, and the app/speaker will glom onto that and switch to something completely undesired, requiring significant intervention just to get back to the desired original state. Completely unacceptable for an app of this self proclaimed sophistication. ### 3/5 — Need iPhone Notification Announce *2026-08-08, version 5.0.20* What would make this a 5-star review would be around functionality. Specifically, notification announcement for things like calls, text messages and notifications from the various applications. My Meta Glasses can read notifications however SoundCore does not. Unfortunately, this makes the Liberty 5 Pro Max pretty useless for any serious use. Too bad because the sound cancelation is really good! ### 2/5 — Falta de acessibilidade para iOS *2026-08-05* A versão para português do Brasil não tem acessibilidade para usuários do VoiceOver no iPhone quem não enxerga não tem como saber o que tem nos links para clicar ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ai slop *2026-09-01, version 5.0.24* An app that never needed to exist. It’s MASSIVE just to slap AI slop into your earbuds. Nobody wants this. Trash trash trash. Just give me a basic app with EQ settings. and that’s it. ### 1/5 — Widgets *2026-09-01, version 5.0.24* Widget not working on IOS , felt bad buying earbuds ### 1/5 — Update not supporting A30 Special *2026-08-31, version 5.0.24* With new update snore masking is only supporting A20 and will not download. It gives a pop up every time I try to download for local use.Sounds downloaded perfectly prior to update. Also, the A30 Special is not listed in supported devices. It went from working great to causing nothing but frustration. This defeats the purpose of reducing stress and improving my insomnia. ### 1/5 — Does not work with soundcore 2 *2026-08-30, version 5.0.24* Bought soundcore 2 speaker. This app doesn’t see it and doesn’t offer it as a manual option. Great!! ### 1/5 — Cannot connect soundcore 2 speaker *2026-08-29, version 5.0.24* What’s the point of this app if I can’t connect the speaker I just purchased!? Could support please contact me to help me?? I had hoped to use the app to access my speaker ### 1/5 — AI for headphones? *2026-08-28, version 5.0.24* Dumbest use of AI I’ve seen, and I’ve seen some monumentally dumb stuff. I shouldn’t need my privacy compromised to choose what happens when I tap an earbud. In conclusion, a truly awful app. Update: I see the update changes nothing. Really very poor. ### 1/5 — Bloatware *2026-08-28, version 5.0.22* Why does an EQ app need a useless AI chatbot? Why can’t it perform basic functions like making the headphones mono or stereo? Why is it taking up 1 GB of space? Unacceptable. ### 1/5 — 300+ MB of Doc & Data *2026-08-27, version 5.0.22* What 300+ MB doc & data is needed for, while the app itself is already 600+ MB? People don’t have unlimited storage in their mobile devices. ### 1/5 — Doesnt work *2026-08-25* Phone is terrible, app just make it worst ### 1/5 — Give me a way to disable the AI assistant. *2026-08-24, version 5.0.22* I wish there was a clear way to disable the AI assistant that comes with the app. So, to keep my headphones firmware up to date, I have to download the app, then after checking for any firmware updates, delete the app and periodically repeat the process. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Sleep stories section *2026-08-29, version 5.0.24* I was wondering whether the Sleep Stories section of this app is regularly updated with new stories, or if it’s just the current selection. Because once I’ve listened to all of them, they’ll start to feel repetitive. ### 5/5 — Muito bom *2026-08-28* Melhor fone que já comprei ### 5/5 — Awesome for customizing *2026-08-28, version 5.0.24* The app is exemplary for a device manufacturer. Much bigger companies should watch and learn! Fully configure playback gestures on left and right side separately with an easy interface to do it. You can even choose which types of ambient noise are cycled when using that gesture. ### 5/5 — Don't use their app its spyware *2026-08-12, version 5.0.21* This app has become full on spyware, adding AI to that (which we never asked for) i just deleted it ### 5/5 — 좋아요~~ *2026-08-04* 좋습니다~^^ 이큐도 적용이 잘되구요~그런데~ 하나 요청하고 싶은게 있어요~ 맥용으로도 있으면 좋을 거 같아요~~맥에서 사용하는데~맥용이 없으니,,이 좋은 스피커를 제대로 활용하지 못하고 있네요~~꼭꼭~부탁드립니다~~ ### 5/5 — Awesome app! iOS widgets would make it perfect 🎧 *2026-07-28* I’ve been using the Soundcore app for a while now and I’m really impressed with how well-designed and reliable it is. The UI is clean, and features like custom EQ and device controls work seamlessly. If there’s one thing that would take this app to the next level, it’s iOS widgets! Having home screen or lock screen widgets to quickly check headphone battery levels or toggle ANC modes without opening the app would be amazing. Keep up the great work! ### 5/5 — a person with adhd’s DREAM. *2026-07-27, version 5.0.14* like actually an incredible app and headphones. I haven’t slept like this in years. and the new tinnitus masking is AMAZING. Just incredible, I can’t recommend this enough. ### 5/5 — Just… WOW!!! *2026-07-14, version 5.0.14* Been using these for just three (3) nights now but had to write a review! As a side sleeper, I used Ozlo Sleepbuds for a couple years but had to keep turning up the volume to "Mask" my partners snoring/noises. The Sleepbud sounds were so loud they were keeping me awake too!!! I knew I needed ANC to solve the problem because I previously used my AirPods with a neck pillow, but they never lasted all night. The very first night with the A30 Specials was PERFECT and has gotten better as I learn to use the different settings. Last night I tried the memory foam tips and once again more noise was cancelled. I’ll probably keep trying other settings and variations just to see how much better things might get. If I discover something, I'll update this review, but right now.... JUST WOW!!!! ### 5/5 — App PARFAITE 🤩👍 *2026-07-02* Avis à tous les propriétaires d’un appareil SOUNDCORE: télécharger sans hésiter cette app!📲 Elle est parfaitement utile pour les réglages de votre appareil (égaliseur, fonction "réduction de bruit »…)⚙️ En plus, elle ne bug même pas (alors que j’ai un iPhone 6 avec 2go de ram)⚡️ Il y a même la possibilité de mettre un bruit de fond dans le casque pour se détendre (ajouter une fonction pour lire le fond sonore en même temps que la musique)🎵🎶 Hâte de voir les prochains ajouts de fonctionnalités et les prochaines mises à jour Merci aux développeurs🙏😁 ### 5/5 — Easily the best headphones *2026-06-28, version 5.0.13* The score Q30 headphones are easily the best headphones I have ever used. It’s good for its price and it is easy to control. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
