### 5/5 — GARBAGE HEADPHONES (but cost $400+ dollars)

*2025-01-04, version 2.8.1*

The parrot audio suite is the defining reason to purchase these headphones. However one needs to use the application downloadable online to get the services. They quit updating the application! And they have rendered the previous application unusable.

There no longer is a parrot concert hall audio audio effect. 

There is no longer an equalizer. 

It is no longer possible to receive calls on these headphones. 

Now what you have, in addition to headphones that you paid considerably extra for - for these unique services - is basically a plain old set of headphones!!!!!

Do not purchase this product - as it is bad, very bad - and those responsible for running this company are (insert insult name here).

(and please note: the only reason they even got one star is b/c feedback section would not allow a post with zero stars.)

### 5/5 — Hopes

*2024-10-20*

I wish they had done more with the app and headphones. I have had the Zik 1s since 2012, and sadly, they are beginning to fail to be specific to the touch controls and ear detection. I wish they still were around so I could have had means of fixing them. :( The app and headphones were a game changer in 2012; many don't come with touch controls. Five stars for making awesome tech and fantastic audio. Oh, and this excellent app idea, Concert Hall, goes hard.

### 5/5 — RIP

*2024-09-10, version 2.8.1*

Best Headphones Ever. Enabling Lou Reed is a must!  RIP Zik.

### 4/5 — App dated but seems to work fine

*2021-05-10, version 2.8.1*

### 2/5 — Not working, it doesn’t see my parrot zic 2.0

### 3/5 — Need a refresh

### 2/5 — Parrot Zikmu

*2019-10-25*

Can this app be for the earlier Zikmu models, the model before the Solo?

Thanks

### 1/5 — So the app does nothing

*2019-10-08, version 2.8.1*

It does nothing. I’ve tried updating my parrot zik headphones, Nothing happens except a “URL not supported” or “File is corrupted” Yes original Zik, Kinda disappointed right now as I know I can’t get maximum use out of these till these issues are fixed.

### 1/5 — Not Compatible with iPhone X and iOS 11.2

*2017-12-08, version 2.8.1*

Headphones 🎧  are useless without the App 😵😬

### 1/5 — Broken on iOS 11

*2017-10-20, version 2.8.1*

On an iPhone 6S+ on iOS 11 I cannot get the app to communicate with the headphones, but music plays fine. I've tried everything even restoring the phone :(

Zik: Tuned by Lou Reed

At Parrot, we've developed new headphones using groundbreaking technology to create a truly immersive sound. The Zik are designed around a powerful processor that spatializes sound and recreates the acoustics of a concert hall. A few months ago, I asked Lou Reed for his opinion. He told me that the headphones were well tuned for classical music but not for rock. And he told me he could help. So on September 30th, 2013, I travelled to his studio in New York; it would be the last time I would see him.
Working alongside his experienced sound engineer as well as Parrot Zik's acoustic designers, Lou Reed used his personal mastering studio to program the Zik as if he were adjusting the balance for one of his own performances. You can now experience the extraordinary results by using a special control on the Parrot Audio Suite app. Thank you Lou
