ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Bass Boost Player holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bass Boost Player has 707 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Car Audio's written reviews are positive against 32% of Bass Boost Player's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Car Audio ships an update every 2 months, Bass Boost Player monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
