### 3/5 — Can’t get microphone to work

*2024-05-27*

Need to get microphone RSA to work please. I got premium version

**Developer response:** Music playback and all radio stations are working again in Version 2.0. The app has also been completely rebuilt using Apple’s Metal technology. Please update to the latest version and give it another try.

### 2/5 — Music Stopped Working

*2022-02-09*

It was my favorite

**Developer response:** Music playback now works correctly in the latest version. The app has been completely rebuilt using Apple’s Metal technology with many compatibility improvements. Please update to the latest version and give it another try. We hope it can become your favorite again.

### 2/5 — False promises

*2019-10-01*

Does not work with other music application just itunes

### 3/5 — Why did you add my podcasts

*2019-06-16*

Hey I bought your app but I don’t like the fact that I can’t get rid of my podcasts when I’m listing to my music

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2018-11-13*

I really like this app, so much that I paid the $1.99 for it. 

Pros: 
- There are a bunch of free channels & I was able to find something I liked without too much trouble. 
- The visualizers a good for the price. 

Cons:
- The settings button only shows up in Landscape view, but the settings menu is broken in Landscape view so you have to rotate to portrait view to use. 
- Only allows music from iTunes to play through it. 

Suggestion: 
- Allow the mute button on the side of the phone to disable the screen so you don’t go to the menu mid session by accidentally touching the screen. 
- Allow SoundCloud to play through the app, I don’t use iTunes or Apple Music. 
     - you can play music from Sound Cloud & start the visualizer, however, it’s not synced with the music, it’s synced with the last built in station you had running.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the suggestions! We will try to implement this in the next version.

### 1/5 — Nothing good is free

*2018-04-02*

Gotta pay to use it with music. Look somewhere else.

**Developer response:** This is not correct. You can use it for free with 47 radio channels!

### 1/5 — It’s $hit

*2017-12-08, version 1.2*

### 1/5 — What a joke

*2024-01-21*

There's not a chance that this app is even listening to the music that's being played. anybody who is used any sort of equalizer knows that this app is a scam.

### 1/5 — just one visializer with a lot of color options

*2023-05-23*

I paid the two bucks to see if lit had other visualizers. I see the same "visualizer" rotated and in different colors. I don't see much response to music playng with foobar2000. Really is bad for classical. It looks petty much the same before and after purchase. In my world a visualizer uses a fast fourier transform to make visals change based on frequency and volume. Options should include simple lines, oscilloscope, glowing clouds, fireworks and such.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. We are currently rebuilding the app in a completely modern Metal-based version with improved compatibility, updated audio and radio functionality, bug fixes and many other improvements. The current version is based on older technology which caused several issues over time, but we hope to bring back the experience that made the app popular originally.

### 1/5 — Ratting

*2023-01-08*

Kind of a cool app, finding hard to adjust the settings to my liking.

**Developer response:** The latest version has a redesigned interface with improved visualizer settings, making the app much easier to use. It has also been completely rebuilt using Apple’s Metal technology. Please update to the latest version and give it another try. We hope you’ll enjoy the improvements.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2020-06-13*

This app is NOT free. The free version is just an obnoxious beat blasting in your face. That’s it. Also an ad pops up every 5 seconds so it’s basically unusable.

### 1/5 — Purchased premium

*2019-11-10*

Purchased premium, but had to delete app due to problems with app. Tried to download app, and it says I have to purchase premium again. Sent email to developer from their website and it bounced back as undeliverable.

**Developer response:** We will investigate it now! My other mailserver was full, that is why I did not get your mail. Sorry about that! Please mail me on eyvind4@gmail.com.

### 1/5 — Ads once in every 10 seconds is too much.

*2019-09-13*

Nope, I’m not your hostage mr. developer. I won’t throw away cash because you will try to abuse my eyes with ads in hope that you would stop. I will just close and delete the app, no matter how good it is somewhere there under the hood of your paywall, especially if I’m pushed so impolitely.

### 1/5 — Does not sync with music

*2019-09-13*

If you are looking for a visualizer that actually syncs with music, keep on looking.

### 1/5 — You can’t load your chosen pack of music.

*2018-11-10, version 1.4*

You can’t load your chosen music tracks!!!

### 1/5 — Deleted after 20 seconds

*2018-10-06*

Click bate w/ crap music intro ya can’t shut off

### 1/5 — Clickbait

*2018-07-30*

This isn’t exactly a 5-D experience. Lots of things cost money. It’s way too bad. This app needs a LOT of improvements!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-07-13, version 2.0*

Thanks for the devs response. Much appreciated. I have updated and the app is excellent. Great choice of tunes. It’s party time 🥳

### 5/5 — Please fix radio again

*2024-02-02, version 1.5*

Hi team,

If possible please can you fix the radio stations again as it’s not working again. Otherwise absolutely great app I love it :-)

### 5/5 — Love love love

*2022-10-02*

If you like trance…and trippy visuals (and mushrooms…!) this app is definitely for you. Not only does it come loaded with excellent variations of trance but a great set of visualizers to accompany your selection. Worth every penny of $1.99! Be cool…and pay the developer it’s worth the 2 big perks 1) you can modify the visualizer settings and even make your own visualizer! 2) play any music media player with your own library of music and the visualizer will respond to every beat. 

I have one little request that would make this a 6 star app….PLEASE…the settings, once changed by the user, should either drop back from a preview mode after a few seconds to allow you to quickly and easily make many changes. It’s kind of cumbersome and wonky to have to click settings on the visualizer and go back into the setting you just altered again. Other than that. A real winner! Maybe choose your own background image from photos too?

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2022-04-01*

Thank you for this app! It syncs up with the radio perfectly and my Nana loves to watch it.

### 5/5 — AWESOME

*2020-03-03*

I love this app. It’s just what I was looking for.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2019-04-07*

Excellent music and sound very powerful

### 5/5 — God is good

*2018-11-01*

Thank goodness

### 5/5 — Awesome and Awesome

*2017-12-15*

I was looking in the App Store and trying trying different concept and I found this Jewel and I am so happy about it and i told all my 4000 friends on Facebook and guess what ?
They all agreed, for this price and quality it does what it supposed to do and we are all happy about it.
Great work guys and keep it up. You have fans forever !,,

**Developer response:** Thanks, very nice 2 hear!

### 4/5 — Not quite there

*2022-04-14*

I like this app, but it never played any of the 22 advertised stations.

I upgraded to premium, but that didn’t change at all. Perhaps I should get my money back?

**Developer response:** The latest version has a redesigned interface with improved visualizer settings, making the app much easier to use. It has also been completely rebuilt using Apple’s Metal technology. Please update to the latest version and give it another try. We hope you’ll enjoy the improvements.

### 4/5 — I like it but...

*2020-12-21*

I have used the free version for a few weeks and I like it. I just tried to support the app by paying a few dollars but it won’t let me LOL 😂
I touch the purchase area on my iPhone 10 and it blinks but doesn’t do anything other then that 🤔 if I could actually pay for the app, I’d give it 5 stars because I think that would remove the 5 second ads, which really are no big deal. Anyway, I like the app regardless 👍🏻
