User reviews

it's free I love it

Five stars for being actually free!!

Would love if it also had a way to filter out background noise. Would pay a one-time amount for that even.

Porn at the bottom

There is porn at the bottom of the app interface. WHY??? Get rid of it! Also, when using app can only hear some words and the rest are garbled or not picked up at all. Was less than 20' away and there was no other sound or talking in the room.

Completely useless

Randomly came across the app and figured WTH, why not? All volumes were turned up and explored the eq extensively and didn’t hear a thing no matter how close the source was to me. Doesn’t even earn a star, shouldn’t even have the option to rate it. The 1 it has is to just post this.
