## What is Giant Ear?

Giant Ear amplifies your hearing by increasing the  volume of any sound heard by your iPhone.

You can use  Giant Ear as an hearing aid anywhere by plugging in your headphones.

It is simple as 2 screens ,
first screen includes an equalizer for main human voice frequencies and an advanced tone setting.  
Tone setting changes the pitch of the sound as low or high since some people hear better with different frequencies.
With work in background feature it can work in background when your phone is locked.

There may be latency with airPods and when tone setting is not in the middle, we recommend wired headphones for the best performance.

Second screen is for recording. You can record any sound and share using common applications.

Free version runs with time limits and ads. You can remove those limits and ads by in-app purchases.
There is NO SUBSCRIPTION, which will renew again. Payment is just for ONCE and for the  LIFE-TIME.

Enjoy

### 1/5 — Godivavkv

*2025-06-05*

Hickory ick

### 1/5 — Adds ruin app

*2025-05-03*

The app is useless, because the whole point of this app is the be able to hear what you can’t hear around you. But, you can’t hear what you want to hear using this app because of being constantly interrupted by loud adds.

### 5/5 — Giant Ear

*2023-08-11*

Absolutely excellent. Has very few phone specific glitches. Improved my life greatly.

### 1/5 — iPhone 11 immediate odd behaviors.

*2023-05-13*

Screen started dimming, whole phone started slowing down. Halted and removed the app immediately and rebooted. Phone seems ok but can’t trust the app now.

**Developer response:** you can stop running in background by double home and close the app

### 5/5 — Lives up to claims!

*2023-05-04*

This app does what it claims and very well!  
I do hope that the developers will continue and come up with a solution for the delay ( which they point out) when using ear pods instead of wired

### 2/5 — Microphone

*2023-03-13*

Disappointed that the Headset Microphone button is nonfunctional, that alone is a deal breaker.

**Developer response:** you can receive support by e-mail if you give details about your headset and how it is not functioning

### 1/5 — Scam

*2021-07-19*

Impossible to rate a hearing app in under 5 minutes free trial. In the 5 minutes, I did detect lag and echo. Won’t pay for a pig in a poke. Buh bye

Developer response.  FOR YOUR INFORMATION, I did use headphones connected with a wire.

**Developer response:** for the best practice you should use with cable earphones, bluetooth may cause latency.
some wired (non original) headphones  use also bluetooth.

### 1/5 — 5 minute limit....

*2020-12-23*

...then they ask you to buy! Not very clear reception, so not worth paying, which I didn't.  At least they allow 5 minute / hour to try it.
