Useless

Requires one of 4 very specific headphones to work, otherwise kicks you to the curb.

Can't access the A/B, let alone even see any of the app functionalities to see what it *could* do.

Don't bother, even for research purposes.

Crashes with ios 26

The application crashes with the latest version of iOS when uploading to my monoprice monolith earbuds

Headset Compatibility

My Corsair Virtuoso Max is compatible with SoundID, but it isn't list on the app.

Not working on my device

The ios version does not even work. All I see is a sorry we are facing technical issues right now šŸ˜•

iOS

Not working in iOS devices please launch iOS version

Not compatible with AirPods

I researched for an app that could give personalization to the audio for my AirPods Pro, and I found SoundID. It seemed very promising, but when I opened the app, it wouldn’t let me proceed until I had picked one of FOUR earbuds that I had never heard of. This app does not work for standard earbuds like AirPods, beats, JBL, or anything. Before you download, make sure your earbuds are compatible.

No Availability Headphone Options

There’s no option to pick another headphone brand other than the pandas. Although the official website states most headphones are compatible including the Sony which I have.

Doesn’t connect

Did everything in troubleshooting and it never connected. Deleted.

Not for Apple

Very limited use with Apple devices, the idea sounds very good but of no use to me with JBL:-(

Helped my Momentum 2’s

They typically have a over boosted bass in my opinion, but with this app I was able to EQ some of it out and really clear up the sound. The app
Is really simple and fast as well. Would recommend.

Only shows three headphones models

For some reason there’s no headphones profiles at all like a few BT models and ear buds a shame cuz even trailer shows all the pro studio headphones.

No sound ID for AirPods Pro.

No AirPod Pro support.

iOS is fishy

I feel like apple has a hold on you here. I use SoundID formally Sonarworks Reference on my Mac since the dawn of time and its amazing. Checked out this app hoping I can get a similar experience but looks like this is only a marketing gimmick.

Pretty much pointless on Apple

There’s only 4 headphones supported and they are very unpopular headphones that most people don’t have so I’m not really sure what the point of this app is on Apple. I know on android there’s 400 or so supported headphones. Maybe this is more on apples fault than SoundID but either way this app is pretty much a waste of time on IOS.

Useless

Only supposed four headphone models. If you have any other pair of headphones like 99% of us do, you’re out of luck.

Doesn’t work

Unable to connect my drop pandas even with trying to get help from the troubleshoot it keeps saying ā€œUnable to connectā€
ā€œSomething went wrong while connecting your headphonesā€

Sound ID

Awesome

Lies

None of the ā€œsupportedā€ headphones are on the App Store version so thanks for wasting my time

Only 4 supported headphones? What?!

I don’t understand what’s going on here. On the desktop app sonarworks supports an incredible amount of headphone profiles, and in the videos I watched it seemed like that was the case for the mobile app too, but when I downloaded it for iOS in the setup it’s only giving me 4 headphone options, rather obscure ones at that. None of which I have. I can’t seem to get around having to choose one, so I’m not sure if I could use this app in any way. I don’t really care if they have my headphone profile, all I want is to access a custom eq so I can bring down a high shelf and cut down on ear fatigue from these bright headphones, but can’t figure it out how to get past the setup. Help! Am I missing something? I’ve had a lot of respect for sonarworks until now so I’m really vexed by what they’ve made here

No iOS?

Finding the ideal setting for my Sony WMX3 earbuds was a piece of cake. But, the app doesn’t work with iOS, bit pointless really.
