My issues are lack of features such as multi-channel support. It’s great with a stereo project, but that’s about half the work I do. ### 1/5 — No idea how to use this. Like the desktop version, tho. *2026-01-04* Some instructions would be helpful. Can we drag and drop or import files? ### 5/5 — Great meter *2024-06-26* It is a great and good looking app. The only downside: I could not use another device to input audio in the standalone app on my iPhone. Via Garageband it works. I emailed them about it and hopefully they explain how to do it. EDIT: Yeah! I figured it out. I had to reconnect the USB-cable from my iPhone (not the Lightning-connection) while the app is on. Then it works. ### 1/5 — Bonne application mais … *2023-11-17, version 1.1.3* Bonjour J’utilise la version Free depuis le début et j’ai voulu essaie la version sur ios sur 1 an et qu’ une fois après avoir payer je me rend compte que le Youlean ne prend pas en compte ma carte audio Audient id4 sur iPhone 14 Donc j’ai payé pour rien pour et demande des esplication sur cette d’abonnement qui ne me servira pas sur mon téléphone ,me servira pas pour mesurer le lufs par le biai du micro pas ce que je voulais !! Pourquoi ce n’ai pas signaler j’aimerai bien savoir pourquoi une telle application ne prend en pas charge les carte dernière génération iOS ou peut être pour bientôt vous aller me dire ? Cordialement ### 5/5 — Perfect! *2023-10-20, version 1.1.3* Clear, stable and efficient, no bug… Bravo! ### 1/5 — I want to like this, but cannot recommend it *2023-07-20* I love the idea of this, and when it works which is rare, it works pretty well. The main issues are basic functionality when inserting the audio over Nettwerk plugging into a DAW. Of the multiple times I’ve used it I only got it working once. Every other time it froze my DAW. The lack of features is also an issue. No multichannel support is a big deal when most deliverables require it. ### 2/5 — Pice of crap *2023-06-30* A very bad connections out of 10 times l was only able to use twice, a real pice of crap. ### 1/5 — Scam ? *2023-04-19* I bought lifetime access on 13.01.23. Now ist gone and the App became useless . Whats going on? ### 1/5 — Network connection laggy *2023-01-06* Tried to use the over the network plugin on my pc to connect to the iPad, but the screen response is very laggy and only updates every second or so. I have a m1 Mac mini to going to an gigabit network and an M1 IPad Pro. ### 5/5 — Amazing 🤩 *2022-03-30* 5 Stars Amazing App 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾 ## Frequently asked questions about Youlean Loudness Meter Lite ### What audio analysis features does Youlean Loudness Meter Lite offer?
