Easier to use for me than the Apple app as I am partly deaf and this app relies on visual clues, not just audio. And it’s free, thanks go to the author. ### 5/5 — I find my AirPods because of this app *2022-10-14* Thank you who made this app ### 5/5 — AMAZING, and actually free 10/10 *2022-06-21* Finally found my other airpod!!

Please fix this and maybe add something where you can chose which AirPod to find if that’s already in it then I am dumb and stupid and I should go kill myself but I haven’t found it so like yeh that’s my point. Hound pls fix this and make it a better app for finding things. ### 2/5 — Hot/Cold does not work *2021-07-31* I tried to find one of my AirPods and the hot and cold meter did not work, I even went outside to see if it would change and….

None of them were even close to the location or wouldn’t play the noise. I got this app, which was FREE and worked better than apples on app. Thank you, Stanley! ### 5/5 — It is a good app! *2023-01-02, version 1.0.2* It is a good app I like that it shows hot or cold and gives you a few tips to find your Bluetooth devices. I also like that it is completely accessible with voiceover in the developer of this app. Make sure that it is if you are blind, usual and you have wireless headphones that you might lose it is a good idea to get this app I like that it does not even have any advertisements, and that it is completely free! ### 5/5 — good app *2022-12-31, version 1.0.2* great app not to hard to find it is cool how it says hot or cold like a game and it doesn’t cost money like all the other ones witch is good --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
