ZoomVolume enables you to change the volume accurately. If you think that minimum volume is too loud, try this. - change volume accurately on display *** this is the appeal point - of course you can change volume with hardware volume button - save/load your favorite as preset volume **Bluetooth Limitation** - With Bluetooth devices (earphones/speakers), volume can only change in steps. - Therefore, unlike wired devices, fine-tuning with the slider on the right is not possible.
