### 1/5 — Super flaky connection with latest hardware/iOS

*2024-11-10, version 1.00.21*

On an iPhone Pro Max 16 with iOS 18.1, the app doesn’t connect with the hardware 90% of the time. How possible is it to get an update for this app?

### 5/5 — Works Just Fine for my iPhone 12 Pro Max

*2024-07-28*

I like this app, especially where you can isolate the vocals to it them pronounced and still be able to blend in background sounds perfectly. I’ve been using the X7 Amp with my Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro 600 ohm headset for the last 4+ years without any issues. Great product all around!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with iOS 17

*2023-10-15, version 1.00.20*

Please fix to work with iOS 17. Brand new , newest gen iPhone SE and it still doesn’t work. App crashes and doesn’t open.

### 1/5 — Sound Blaster X7 app is a letdown on iOS 17

*2023-10-09, version 1.00.20*

I’m disappointed with the Sound Blaster X7 app. It’s completely unusable on iOS 17, and I can’t adjust any settings for my Sound Blaster X7 Limited Edition. I hope they update and provide better support soon.

### 5/5 — iOS 17 broke this

*2023-09-19*

Please update to work with ios17

### 3/5 — Bluetooth Verbindung bricht ständig ab

*2021-12-07, version 1.00.19*

Ich nutze das System jetzt schon seit dem Release und war eigentlich immer super zufrieden. Hab auch immer schön die Firmware-Upgrades auf das Gerät geladen, so lange es noch welche gab. Dennoch bricht seit 2-3 Jahre immer wieder die Bluetooth Verbindung ab, wenn ich über das Handy Musik streame. Gibt es dazu eventuell nen Trick, wie man das verbessern könnte?

Außerdem zeigt mir die App während der Benutzung sehr oft an, dass das Gerät nicht verbunden wäre. Bitte um einen Fix oder Ratschläge.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t connect

*2021-04-28, version 1.00.19*

The app won’t connect from my iPhone 11 Pro. It doesn’t find the device, even though my phone is connected via Bluetooth and playing music over it. 
Creative Labs, please keep your products up to date.

### 5/5 — Working great on my iPhone X

*2021-03-12, version 1.00.19*

Connects very quickly through bluetooth and usb, interface is rather straightforward and simple. My only issue is there are multiple volume controls to manage, maybe find a way to make a single one controlled by the volume know?
