Outstanding!

This app is outstanding but the auto normalizer only works occasionally lately in iOS 26.4. Can you please fix this outstanding feature? Thank you.

Best Eq, everything I was looking for.

This equalizer kick but! I can dial in exactly where I want my bass boost frequency, the amount of boost, and best of all the width of the Q ( how quickly the curve tapers off) it’s awesome.

This was the biggest problem of listening to music on an iPhone. Apple’s E.Q. Is horrible for user control. Especially for anyone who loves a parametric Equalizer. Since apples iPhone E. G. So far versions of iOS you can’t select the frequency only presets curve assumptions of what the user might like.

This equalizer fixes all of that.

Update

Update please 2026

Great Amazing Improved Sound

Update: 9/22/17 - App keeps crashing after iOS 11 update The ability to sort albums by date they were added would be a handy addition. Love the product otherwise

Update: 10/6/23 - No longer working properly in iOS 17….scroll bar progress stuck in one place although music still playing. Buffering doesn’t adjust properly anymore

Update: 9/18/24 - Still doesn’t work properly. Very unfortunate. Hopefully updating the app to iOS 18 will help

Update: 10/9/25 - Issue I had was due to cross feed or cross fade. Don’t use them or set to default value. Worked mostly fine since

Best EQ for audiophile gear

Equalizer is indispensable for classical and opera on audiophile equipment.
Very impressed with its ease of use and wide range of EQ and soundstage options. Surprised it’s not more expensive.

Irreführend

Beim Überfliegen der Beschreibung kein Hinweis, dass Spotify & Co. nicht funktionieren. Fühlt sich wie rausgeschmissenes Geld an – hätte ich das gewusst, hätte ich nicht gekauft.

Stability problems

With the update to 18.4 the app crashes significantly less often but the problems are still there - original review - The EQ sounds amazing (easy to use curve editor), but the player often crashes at the end of a playlist, or playback may freeze at the end of a track. Installed on iOS 18.3

Lies

They lie when they say you can play music directly from the Apple Music player. Nothing plays. Very deceptive developer.

Hobbles all DRM songs

No hay mejor ya compré varios

El mejor equalizador ya lo uso desde 2015 nunca me dio problemas el sonido de salida es excelente

Can’t import music files

Maybe it’s my fault, but I cannot import any music files into this app. I’m using the iPad Pro 13 inch (M4) with the latest software. I purchased this app and still haven’t been able to use it at all. HELP PLEASE!

Blender

Der Eq mag ja funktionieren, allerdings nur in diesem Player. Welcher übrigens hässlich und altbacken ist.
Keine Einbindung in Apple Musik möglich.
Rausgeschmissenes Geld.

Doesn’t work

Advertised as the best equalizer, it doesn’t work on my iPhone, you have to use it’s player, which can’t import songs from music folder on my phone.. No contact info, guess they just got my money

Lost $4.00

It only plays with iTunes playlist I wanted a eq for my Pandora songs and to use with AUM MIXER who knew

This thing doesn’t open

iPad Pro - flashes briefly on screen when tapped then quits. How did this get past the guards?

Doesn’t Work With Apple Music, PERIOD!

It keeps telling to download songs from iCloud, or is it DRM. I downloaded all my music and the app still gives me the same message. Wish there was a way to get a refund.

Still won’t open

Despite downloading the latest version this app still won’t open on iPhone 13 Pro

Everyday user, The best EQ!

Everyday user, The best EQ! No other apps got this amazing EQ! Pls update and maintain this app as long as possible! Pls add next button on watch version!

How do you share

How do you share a song in equalizer can’t seem to figure it out
Thanks Elizabeth
