Even Developer Doesn't Know its Full Potential. I have many Speakers Connected with Alexa, Fire Tv Stick, Even with Led Screen. They work wirelessly but even bluetooth Speakers Have wires (Connection within woofer and sub woofer), connection with alexa device, Any time any wire can loose and u may not know because suppose you have 4.1 speaker but one sub woofer is loose now you get my point this app is very. Handy in Troubleshooting Each Channel, Each Speaker, Each Speaker's Volume. One by One.

The app could have better accessibility labels, rather than "overlay" being the play button, and "glove" being the rate button. I also kinda wish it had a way to test 5.1 or 7.1 or Dolby Atmos headphones or speakers, but besides that, it's a nice app for what it does, and is useful for blind people.

Simple and useful, but I'd prefer to be able to tap on each ear so play only left or right, because I use this app for checking when one ear stops working or bad cable connection. Thanks!
