## What is Fresco?

Listen to 8D music right on your iOS device and experience the amazing feeling of sound moving around your head in a way that completely surrounds you! An excellent tool to help you focus and concentrate for those long study sessions or work focus.

* Updated 2026 algorithm that delivers high quality 8D audio, ensuring clear bass and beautiful 360 degree surround sound.
* Set a sleep timer for music so playback stops automatically when it’s time to rest
* Binaural ambient sounds for focus and concentration
* Transfer songs and audio files directly from your local files or use your computer via Wifi or bring in tracks from iCloud
* Experience true 8D Audio with any song in your iPhone's music library (Spotify and Apple Music streaming are not supported)
* 360 degree sound
* An excellent and relaxing way to listen to your music while studying or working — NOW with a built-in Pomodoro timer to keep your focus sessions on track

* You can import your media into the app over WiFi. Simply tap the "Add Songs" button on the top right and visit the displayed web address from any browser connected to your Wi-Fi network. Then it's as easy as dragging and dropping the songs you want to import and play as full 8D Music

### 1/5 — You can not use it once you run out of “tokens”

*2024-10-08, version 3.0*

This is a great app that comes to an end! Once the “tokens” run out (after Aprox 6 songs) you have to watch ad’s to get more. There’s no subscription or paid version of this

### 1/5 — No se puede usar desde el teléfono

*2024-06-25, version 3.0*

La música que quiero convertir en 8 D está en el teléfono, no quiero usar el ordenador. No entiendo que no se pueda acceder a los archivos de música del teléfono.

### 3/5 — Essayer

*2024-06-23, version 3.0*

Cela est une bonne appli avec la posibilité de changer la vitesse… mais le seul soucis c’est que ce n’est pas clair le fait de comment importer une musique ( ce que je n’ai pas réussi à faire )

### 4/5 — MY EARS ARE BLESSED

*2024-04-25, version 3.0*

OKAY THIS IS AMAZING!!!!! BEST 8d audio EVER.
I just have ONE suggestion 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 Can there be an easier way to import music into the app? It would be SO amazing if I could just import audios from my files or videos on my phone into the app. PLEASE!!! This would be so so much easier ✨
LOVE THIS APP THO

### 2/5 — Website link doesn’t work

*2023-03-30, version 3.0*

The sound quality is nice for the demo songs and everything is perfect but it’s really a shame that you can’t import music from your phone because the link doesn’t work for me to import from laptop to phone.

### 5/5 — IMPRESIONANTE

*2022-12-24, version 3.0*

Un descubrimiento agradable. Operativo y sencillo. ¡BINGO!

### 2/5 — It reduce the sound quality and just shoot it around :/

*2022-06-16, version 3.0*

### 5/5 — 感想と改善点

*2021-03-21, version 3.0*

ダウンロードしてみました。

感想は
頭の周りをぐるぐるしているように聞こえて
とても楽しいです！！

改善点は
YouTubeなどの動画を
立体音響に出来るようにしてくれませんか？
その方が私敵には使いやすいです！
採用お願いします🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️

### 4/5 — Solv please this Issue

*2021-02-26, version 3.0*

Please update this app music player there is no player like  a music player
And must ad sleep timer please

### 4/5 — 純粋なサラウンドではありませんが、、

*2021-02-07, version 3.0*

音楽が頭の上で360度ゆっくり移動して聞こえます。純粋なサラウンドではないですが、移動速度は調整できて、楽しいソフトです。サラウンド機能を持たせればなかなか素晴らしいソフトだとおもいます。有料でも価値があります。今は音楽が回転している状態です。これが、360度同時に聴ければ、少しサラウンド機能がでます。

## Frequently asked questions about Fresco

### What is 8D music and how does this app enhance it?

8D music creates an illusion of sound moving around the listener, simulating a 360-degree experience. This app uses an updated algorithm to deliver high-quality 8D audio, making your music feel like you're at a live concert. It works best with headphones to fully appreciate the surround sound effect.

### How can I add music to the app?

You can import songs and audio files directly from your computer over WiFi. Simply tap the 'Add Songs' button and visit the provided web address from any browser on your Wi-Fi network to drag and drop your files. Songs already in your iPhone's iTunes music library are automatically imported.

### What kind of audio files does this app support?

The app supports songs from your iPhone's music library that are not DRM-protected. It works well with regular music files, nature sounds, atmospheric music, and ASMR tracks. Streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music, as well as iCloud files and DRM-protected songs, are not supported due to copyright restrictions.

### Do I need headphones to use this app?

Yes, headphones or earphones are required to experience the 8D Audio effect. The spatial audio technology relies on stereo separation that is only effectively perceived through headphones. Without them, the immersive surround sound will not be noticeable.

### Is this app free to use?

The app is free to download and use, but it does contain advertisements. While the core functionality of experiencing 8D music is available for free, there may be options for in-app purchases to enhance the experience or remove ads, though this is not explicitly detailed in the provided description.
