I’ve tried so many different things over the years hoping to find relief, and honestly, AudioCardio has had the greatest impact by far. My tinnitus was severely exacerbating my anxiety and depression, but AudioCardio has helped minimize the ringing and reduced how much I focus on it throughout the day. I genuinely feel more like my old self again. Thank you to the AudioCardio team for developing this app and creating something that can make such a meaningful difference. It has helped me immensely. Thank you, AudioCardio! ### 1/5 — Still messed us/buggy *2026-02-23, version 3.2.2* I paid for subscription and barely got to use it as it intermittently kept insisting that I didn’t have a subscription despite charging my credit card. ### 3/5 — Bugs and issues that are never fixed *2026-01-08* I have been using AudioCardio regularly for over a year. I do think it has made a small but noticeable difference in lessening my hearing loss. But the app itself has major issues which hamper its usefulness. Nearly every usage session, the volume seems to gradually increase if its own accord, until I can easily hear the tones in my ear, which is not only annoying, but it renders the “therapy” useless. Pausing the therapy and resuming temporarily fixes the volume issue, but I often need to do this 20+ times during each session. The app also frequently “forgets” that I have a paid subscription even though I’ve just logged in. annoyingly, the app also makes you log in every single time rather than keeping you logged in as it used to. There hasn’t been an update in over a year and I don’t think the developer is investing in any improvements to the app. I did renew my subscription after the first year but it remains to be seen whether I will do so again. ### 1/5 — Cancelled subscription yet charged for renewal; no response to complaint. *2025-12-30, version 3.2.2* Tried the app and set up renewal payment in the Apple App Store as required. Unfortunately I could not use the app as intended so cancelled via the Apple App Store well before the end of the trial period. I received a billing/payment notification despite having cancelled…reached out to their support email and have yet to get any reply. Will go through the dispute process with the CC company for a refund. Beware of this company if you transact via the Apple App Store…you may get an unpleasant experience ### 5/5 — Best thing I’ve done *2025-10-09, version 3.2.2* I was using it for a few years, slight but notable difference. Till I found out I had otosclerosis. Two stapeadectomys later Audio Cardio has not only helped recover from surgery but helped reduce the tinnitus that was a symptom of the OS. Started at 41/100 in 2020, one surgery at the end of 24 and the second in middle of 25. Restarted the app with a 60/100, and now Currently at 83/100! ### 5/5 — Works *2025-07-18, version 3.2.2* Have to be consistent ### 2/5 — Usage in background broken *2025-04-15* This app had been great for so long but over the last several months is appears you cannot have I running in the background when you are using other apps, this wasn’t the case previously. For the massive monthly subscription charged this shouldn’t be a problem. I will be cancelling. ### 2/5 — Great concept, poor functioning app *2024-12-05* I believe that there is merit in this concept and that this company is onto something but the app just does not function well at all. I have pretty severe tinnitus and high frequency hearing loss and have used this app for a couple of years off and on. I’ve tried to love it and again fine merit in the concept, but the app fails to function on a daily basis and is super frustrating, especially considering the cost. Sometimes it allows me to listen to music or books while running AudioCardio in the background, but often it just pauses the program. The reminders are intrusive and annoying. Most detrimental is that my scores/tinnitus/hearing have not improved after using it for years. ### 4/5 — Works but needs improvement *2024-12-04, version 3.2.2* This app does what it says in terms of running sets of high and low frequency sounds - but it’s flakey. Sometimes it won’t run in the background so you have to have it open and running and can’t use your phone with anything else. Also, it doesn’t always run at the same volume - might be because of something the AirPods Pro are doing with dynamic noise adjustments - not sure - so that’s a problem. Otherwise - it’s fairly unique in its value - so it’s good for that. ## Frequently asked questions about AudioCardio Hearing & Tinnitus ### What does AudioCardio do?
