### 2/5 — Was brilliant

*2021-11-21*

When I first installed frquensee it worked great.After the latest update the line is so blurred and refresh rate so high that it is unusable.

**Developer response:** Well, version 2.0 was using simple FFT like everyone else. This however, is not the right way of measuring in respect to human perception. I acknowledge the current version has issues with blur and I already have an idea for version 4.0 greatly improving measurements and presentation.

### 2/5 — Liked the Old Display

*2021-02-08*

The older way of displaying frequencies was so much clearer.  Can we have an option of using the old or the new?

**Developer response:** Yes, there are plans for adding an option for suitable short-term averaging and improving upon the new frequency measurement system. If possible we want to avoid going back to the traditional Fourier-based analysis though, because we are not convinced by its accuracy. The goal is to achieve human-like perception quality.

### 2/5 — Decent for price but Low quality

*2016-09-05*

Should have an option to zoom into hz

### 1/5 — Iop on iPhone 6+

*2015-09-13*

Just hangs on ios 8.41

### 4/5 — Useful app

*2014-09-09*

You may take screen shots to save and compare results.

### 1/5 — O.k.

*2014-09-09*

This analyzer is just o.k.  Biggest gripe, it only goes down to 50 Hz.  It's very very basic.  No options. Can't save to compare several after making changes to the stereo settings or room acoustics.

### 5/5 — Doesn't work IOS7.1 - black screen

*2014-04-21*

Just bought. Does not seem to work. Just a black screen. Sent inquiry, got answer quick (IOS setting) and works great. Using to get used to special hearing aid.

### 5/5 — Very handy gadget indeed

*2013-11-01*

I've been a live sound engineer for years. I was at a gig recently and really wanted a spectrum analyser to confirm what my ears were saying and show someone else, and found this excellent app.
It gives a really good graphical snapshot of the sound. It's possibly not scientifically accurate and of course is affected by the response of the iPhone mix, but as a quick guide to the shape of the sound it's perfect. I now use it surprisingly often for quick illustration of room acoustics and graphic eq.
It might not make you an experienced sound engineer but its a great little tool to have in your kit.

### 5/5 — Gostei

*2013-10-27*

Muito bom! Não tem menu nem configurações! Faz o que mostra e muito bem. Consegui usar o pink noise certinho!

### 5/5 — Great little app

*2013-04-22*

Basic functionality but works well. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Not accurate.

*2023-04-01*

4kh sound displayed as 12kh peak on display.    Results aren’t in the ballpark. Not usable.

**Developer response:** Not sure if this is an April Fools' joke?
Either way, I will make sure the next version is accurate for sine sweeps and pink noise. In my recent findings I can say Fourier based analyzers are very inaccurate for pink noise, the properly calibrated version of FrequenSee should be superior.

### 1/5 — Why did you change it??

*2023-03-19*

This app used to be so perfect! It’s so hard to read now and it keeps freezing! Change it back please!

I’m a sound engineer and found the old visualizer to be so helpful and accurate! Now I can’t use it

**Developer response:** Version 3.1 won't freeze on iOS 16. Proper line drawing will come back in the next version. Accuracy is currently also top priority. The new version will merge the responsiveness of the current version with the smoothness of the old version and will be more accurate than ever.

### 1/5 — Malfunctioning

*2022-10-10*

This app used to work great until recently, now it intermittently freezes and will sometimes crash.

**Developer response:** I've updated to version 3.1 which won't freeze on iOS 16.0

### 1/5 — Why did you change it??

*2022-10-01, version 3.0*

This app used to be so perfect! It’s so hard to read now and it keeps freezing! Change it back please!

### 1/5 — 更新变垃圾了。

*2021-01-05*

以前用的好好的这次更新后看都看不清楚了，开发者脑子想什么呢！

### 1/5 — 不能下载，还我的钱

*2020-07-08*

不能下载

### 1/5 — 小心下载！

*2020-03-16*

花了6元，简直是坑的不要太深！ 浪费了6元… 各位谨慎下载！

### 1/5 — 完全不准确

*2020-03-13*

太垃级了，被骗了六块钱

### 1/5 — Not good

*2018-10-26*

Probably the worst spectrum analyzer I've used. No peak hold, no peak frequency display overall disappointing.

### 1/5 — Das Geld nicht wert!

*2018-10-24*

Die App ist schlicht den Euro nicht wert!

### 5/5 — This Ap has been a God Send when it comes to Live Sound

*2023-08-30*

This Ap has been a God Send when it comes to Live Sound…… and I’ve used it for years!
Vocal Feedback in a Monitor?  Easily let’s you find what to “Cut”!
Vocals just don’t quite sound right … Helps to both Cut or Boost!!
I keep my phone handy & get get my PA up & running in NO TIME 👏👏👏

### 5/5 — Всё работает молниеносно!

*2021-03-11*

Самое быстрое приложения для анализа спектра в реальном времени!

Супер!

### 5/5 — Passt❗️

*2020-12-24*

Gut und günstig, für den schnellen Überblick! 👍

### 5/5 — Simple / functional

*2020-11-10*

It does exactly what you want and it’s accurate. 
Multiple test-tones were FFT’d accurately using standard inbuilt mic. Great for looking at general frequency content in a pinch. And it’s a factor of 10 cheaper than competing apps, which sport a lot of burdensome “features”.

### 5/5 — Fast & Smart Tool

*2019-12-29*

This Analyzer stands out with remarkable simplicity that makes you focus on the frequency content ALONE. I really like this when I'm on the go and want to check a sound very quickly

### 5/5 — High fps

*2019-01-22*

Good

### 5/5 — 音乐制作人铠韬用过。

*2015-03-25*

蛮好的。有性价比。

### 5/5 — Very handy!

*2014-10-20*

I've found this very useful, I have to do a lot of gigs where the time allowed to ring out mics is less than ideal and there are times when having this makes life much easier. The ability to freeze the display by touching the screen is great. Thanks very much!

### 5/5 — Thank you!

*2014-08-15*

Everything I need. Thank you for including the frequencies at the bottom of the graph! Better than others and less expensive? Sign me up!

### 5/5 — Solid App

*2014-04-28*

I use this as a supplementary tool to my ears while engineering live sound. Especially useful at narrowing down where overly resonant frequencies are located more quickly.
