Doesn’t work with AirPods Pro even after buying Premium Pack.

I bought the Premium Pack - supposedly with all features included - because I saw it had a lot of potential use for me. Really wanted to use it with my AirPods Pro but the app always said they weren’t connected even though they were. No response from dev after logging an issue a few days ago.

At this price I expect both that it works without hassle and if there’s issue a prompt response from the dev team.

Keeps freezing up

I recently purchased the one year membership as things were working good, all of a sudden it will freeze up and stay at zero or whatever DB number it’s at.
Next, I have to unplug, the microphone restart the app plug everything back in and sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t.
There are times I don’t have time to do that during a service. I need the DB information as soon as it hits the meter. Please fix the bug or I will request a refund.

Forced to pay to save

Can no longer save videos without paying

Not free

Not cool to advertise it as if its free…

love it

the user experience has been exceptional!!

Countless Features, No Greed

This app is a diamond in the rough for a hobbyist or enthusiast. Even the free version offers more customizability and options than most other audio visualizers, with an FFT plot, spectrogram, dB reader, etc., and it can all be recorded and transferred.

It’s a great all-in-one audio analysis tool with a low skill floor and high skill ceiling.

Not fit for purpose

Reports dBZ values below dBA or dBC, and so is inherently incorrect and unreliable

Requires paid subscription

"Free with in-app purchases" is a fun technicality, isn't it?

This App Is Great

If you want to pay £25 a year. You can’t use the app without paying at least £25. So for an app that used to be free this is *****

Very good

Because I can seee how loud it is

Delusional developer

The app tries to lock you in a subscription without even letting you try it. The developer is clearly desperate to make a buck. There are apps that are free on appstore, they do the same thing. Don’t feed the machine.

Works so much better than the old one

This is the best DB app

Free

I had gotten this and it said in a purchases, but I was like let me just try it and ask you to pay a monthly yearly or annual subscription. If there was an accident on the top left corner when you hit X you basically get all the features it’s wonderful. You have a sleep time where you at different icons different photos. It’s wonderful and it does the job if you’re looking for a decibel meter it does the decibel meter.

결제한적도없고 그당시에 깔고 5분도 안 쓰고 앱을 지웠습니다 왜 결제됐는지도 모르겠습니다 잘못누른적도 없고요 소액도 아니고 4만원씩이나 결제됐습니다 학교에서 깔라고해서 잠시 깔고 지운 학생입니다… 한푼한푼이 소중해서 정말 부탁드립니다

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. If you started the free trial of the Pro version and did not cancel it before the trial expired, it was automatically converted into a yearly subscription, as explicitly stated at the start of the trial period. To cancel the subscription, go to the app's settings, select “Manage subscriptions” and, in the new window, select “Cancel subscription” or by follow the official Apple guide available here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202039. For a refund, you will have to contact Apple using the guide here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/118223

Too many questions, but works well

Asks all sorts of questions, filter through that and use the free option works for most needs!

Terrible and highly inaccurate

Don’t get it was so bad I took the test cause why not it said basically I needed help and I don’t I wasted 90$ at the doctor

You need to pay

Scam

Tuff

My tiktok is MrJacob850 Anyways this is cool

Too many questions, and $$

Tries to make you pay a ton of money for such a simple thing. Asks all sorts of questions before when you just want to know how loud it is.

POS Full OF BUGS

It’s difficult to know where to start given how worthless this app is. And it is so full of bugs. On one of the pages you’re stuck with a huge map of the world I presume to show you where you made your recordings, but no one needs it, and it is completely worthless. Then when you try to play one of the recordings to recall what it was, half the time they won’t play. They won’t play whether you Select play on the main page or on the second page. In addition, you can’t fast forward. This recording app stupidly did not provide a means to fast-forward in one of the recordings. An elementary school student riding a tricycle could’ve done a better design job. Too much of the time nothing plays at all because it’s so full of bugs. And they don’t allow enough room. In the space for the subject of the recording to be able to provide a short but reasonable explanation so that you can find recordings later. Nor do they explain when you should use sound level C versus sound level A, nor do they explain when you should use fast response versus slow response.

Truly, a POS app, avoid at all costs.
