Response from developer

Many thanks Cogates123 for your rating and sorry for delayed response. Yes, this app has not been updated for very long. But a new big update will be coming soon.

amazing app hard to use

i have to make an audio file then import the file to use this app, and the spectrum is laggy, i wish there were more options for the spectrum. i also wish there was more options for the squares that fall on the spectrum, i wish there was an option to set so the squares will wait a little bit then fall faster back down! but this is a great app ! and how do i export the spectrum so i can add it to my music mixes?

Good Potential

Takes some figuring to get everything to work. A lot of visuals play to the music, but some don’t. Needs a 10/15 second time elapse between each scene for shuffle mode of visuals, rather than just one scene per track. With that, Sound Colors has the potential to compete with the more higher brands.

Response from developer

Many thanks for your rating and sorry for delayed response. The new big update will improve the app drastically and hope you will like it then.

Do not buy - doesn’t work!

Will not work. Unable to access music files. Terrible product, don’t waste your money.

Super Visualizer! Masterpiece!

Sehr guter Musik Player und Visualizer!!! Hoffe es gibt schon bald neue Effekte zur Visualisierung.
Thank you Danni Wu for this great news! I´m a huge fan of your app and have always loved music visualization!
I´ve not long ago started a YouTube channel called „VISUALIZATOR - Royalty Free Music Visualized“ which is growing very rapidly and have used your amazing visuals for some music videos: two music videos which I´ve created with the help of your visuals are my third and fourth most watched music videos on my channel! The third most watched music video on my channel is called "Cyberpunk Dark Synthwave Slave to the Grid // Royalty Free No Copyright Background Music“. I´ve taken your amazing visuals and applied a so called kaleidoscope effect. My fourth most watched music video on my channel is called „MATRIX - Free Dark Synthwave Music - Unplugged from the Matrix // No Copyright Music“. In all of my music videos which I´ve created with your amazing app SoundColors - Music Visualizer I´ve added the name of your amazing app and a link to the app in the AppStore in the video description to promote your app for new users and buyers. In my opinion, your app deserves much more attention and praise! For me you are the Michelangelo of music visualization!
Would be great if we could somehow contact each other. I´ve tried very hard to somehow contact you, the only way seems to be the AppStore. I think the AppStore doesn´t let me write my mail in AppStore. You can find my mail in the music video descriptions under each of my music videos. If you want, you can always write me a mail to tell me about the appearance of new visualization effects for your app SoundColors. Would love to create new music videos with your stunning visuals!

Legit

Things work make u work and then it works better than ANY other player.
Only for the underground players maybe idk.
But your lucky you found this player NOW DOWNLOAD IT!<3

Worst $2 I’ve ever spent

Doesn’t work at all. Don’t bother

Response from developer

Sorry to hear that. Wish you have gotten a refund. I admit current version is not perfect. A new update will be coming soon. I am sure you would change your mind then if you didn't return this app.

Alright, would like to see improvements

The app doesn’t save the previous visualizer and always reverts to the default. There isn’t much for settings, I would like to be able to adjust the sensitivity and frequency range of the visualizer.
The visualizer could use some polishing since it seems to be a little slow. The app accesses my musics from iTunes well, but there’s no “shuffle all” button. You’d have to put them all into a playlist. On top of that, the playlist folder is saved but when I reopen the app, the playlist is empty. It also doesn’t support CarPlay. Not sure what “Supports external display presentation” is supposed to mean.

Works fine on iPhoneX - 12.4.1

Unlike everyone else, I was looking for a decent music visualizer to follow my music. There are many things to factor in and consider when routing your music into a app and not directly. If you think your going to get perfection, this may not be the app for you.

Lies.

The app detects the tempo but this doesn’t play in sync with the actual song. Are you kidding me? Total rip off. Your videos show a different story.

Response from developer

We must say this is really an unexpected review as detecting tempo/BPM is much harder than syncing. Could you please let us know what song you were playing and send more info to soundcolor2018@gmail.com? As we mentioned in the app description, we have two tempo algorithm implemented. The offline one for mp3 file based songs might be the best you could find in the app store for the price. So if you were playing a mp3 file, we would be very curious what song it is. Finally we wish you could believe nobody tired to fool anyone here. This app is definitely not perfect. For us, we are still learning a lot new stuff while developing/improving it. But we NEVER wanted to cheat for money as that’s against our BOTTOM-LINE as human-being. We are showing the videos to reflect how exactly the app works/looks, not for lying.

Doesn’t work with Files app

The description claims that it works with the Files app, but that’s not true. I have audio files in my Files app and they are grayed out when trying to select them from within the app... doesn’t work and I paid for the app as well. Disappointing. Also the support link on the App Store takes you to a spectrum Internet search. I can’t figure out how to get support to get my money back.

Response from developer

For the Files App, currently we only support MP3 files and non-MP3 files will be greyed out. Not sure if your music files are in other formats. Could you please send email to soundcolor2018@gmail.com to provide more info in your convenience? We will also try to get you refunded if you really don’t like this App.

Wanted to like it.

This app really looked the cool....the first time I used it. Functioned for one iTunes song then app closed. Not every time I try to play a song in the app it closes before any music is played.

I will be happy to change my rating if there is a fix.

Response from developer

Sorry for letting you down. Somehow we have not seen Apple crash report from version 1.6.8 to analyze and have not been able to reproduce the issue locally. If possible, could you please contact us @ soundcolor2018@gmail.com to provide more info about the songs in your convenience? At the same time, we are making some improvements and defensive fixes and will release an update soon. Please give it a try then.

Doesn't work for any songs I'd actually want the beat effect with

Doesn't work with rap. No Eminem songs work which is what I got if for for the beat effect too go with the beat of raps which is why rap is popular mostly because of the beat. If you had a disclaimer or something that it wouldn't work. I would've spent money for this cause I was disappointed right away also I don't like any of the recommended songs. They're all mainstream politically correct songs you'd hear in a general store or on a school bus. Hope it works for those at least but I'm not using it. Enjoy my two dollars I got nothing out of

Please try the latest version and hope the new BPM detection algorithm will work better for you. Many thanks.

Not possible to access my files

When I try to access my music files does not allow me to access any. The only option available is activate “WIFI Uploader” and provide a web URL that is not possible to enter!!

Response from developer

Sorry for the possible confusing instruction. The web uploader is for transferring mp3 files from computer to iOS device. To use it, 1. The iOS device needs to be on the same WiFi network as the computer 2. Then open the URL shown in the App on computer browser to upload/manage the mp3 files Many thanks for choosing this App. Your feedbacks are very important to us. We will try our best to make it better and better.

Doesn’t work

This app does not shuffle my library of music. It only adds the last song I played and repeats until I choose a new song. The guitar on the first song I chose sounded washed out. I thought it was my headphones but nope it was the app. The second time I opened up the app, none of the buttons worked. I only downloaded this app because my free music player developer hadn’t updated in a couple of years so I thought a paid player would support developers yet all I got was lemon.

Response from developer

Hi iwakunijay, we are very sorry for the issues you ran into. Your invaluable feedback made us realize to give users the best music experience, mainly focusing on music visualizers and just providing common player features is far from enough. Specific to the issues you reported: (1) Currently the app does support selection/playlist based shuffling. You could try tap the repeat mode and shuffling mode buttons to switch the modes. If what you wanted is shuffling your whole library automatically, we will add the option in future update. (2) For the sound washing out issue, we guess it's because currently we support the mainstream MP3 bit-rates best. Enabling high quality/bit-rates music support like FLAC is on our ToDo list and we are working on that. To confirm that, could you provide more info about your music encoding info in your convenience if possible ? (3) For the button unresponsiveness issue, were you meaning the buttons on the music player UI or the main UI ? If possible, could you let us know roughly how big is your music library in your convenience ? It seems being a performance issue to us. We want to apologize again for your unpleasant experience with our app for which we prioritized more on Music Visualizer features. We will try our best to improve the player features and performance as much/soon as possible.
