App summary

Precise Volume is a fully-featured Equalizer and audio control utility. It is filled with helpful features with the goal of allowing you to customize your audio to sound exactly how you like it.

This app overrides Android's default 15-25 volume steps and allows you to set a fully custom number. Other apps may give the illusion of having more volume steps, but this app actually has them.

NOTE: Returning users, try turning on Legacy mode. This may get the app working for you again. Go to Settings -> Equalizer Settings -> Legacy mode

Modern science tells us that the volume of our music can be just as important as anything else for connecting emotionally. When volume is too loud or too soft for a given song, emotional connection can be lost.

But Precise Volume doesn't just give you more volume steps. It also contains tons of automation features and customization options, such as:

Fully-Featured Equalizer
- Graphic EQ is your standard (but powerful) 10-band Equalizer
- Auto EQ can automatically adjust sound for your specific headphones (compiled by jaakkopasanen - you rock, dude)
- Bass/Compressor boosts bass!
- Reverb creates a simulated environment around your head
- Virtualizer creates a highly immersive surround sound effect
- Volume Booster can be found under Graphic Eq as "post-gain"
- L/R Balance lowers the volume of the left/right channels
- Limiter boosts volume as it safeguards your audio from going above a certain level, while keeping quality

Volume Booster
- Careful with this!

Automation
- Apps Automation (activate presets when apps are opened/closed)
- Bluetooth Automation (activate presets when Bluetooth is connected/disconnected)
- USB DAC Automation (activate presets when your USB DAC is connected/disconnected)
- Headphone Jack Automation (activate presets when headphone jack is plugged/unplugged)
- Date/Time Automation (activate presets at specific dates/times, repetition options included)
- Boot Automation (activate presets when device boots)

Volume Presets
- Pre-define volume and other settings to apply later (can be used with automation, etc). Create specific presets for all of your headphones, for your car, etc.

Equalizer Presets
- Pre-define Equalizer settings for use later (can be used with automation, etc). Create specific presets for your every mood (or headphones!)

User reviews

I can't believe I spent money on this. It only works when the screen is on and the phone is unlocked, even if the settings contradict this. It works somewhat fine otherwise. But even then, the volume can get jumpy at certain increments no matter how many calibration methods you use. The permissions it requires are also kinda scary. I might just try another app or deal with my phone's horrendous settings.

It has a nice selection of options for audio, even if I didn't find the interface very intuitive at first. But after installing and buying the $6 premium membership I can no longer control the volume on my casted devices (bt devices work fine). Uninstalled the app and rebooted phone, and it's still broken. Emailed for support, no response (message says dev gets 15 emails a day and won't reply to all). Update: newest android update fixed, ability to control vol on casting devices restored.

surprisingly stable and ad-hassle\annoyance-free performance... it actually sounds good, doesn't crash and has useful features and functions - - - many of which are 'pro version' upgrades.... the cost of upgrading to 'pro version' which, by the way, they should have made that price visible in the menu or the 'about' section that links to Google PlayStore (or launches that app) whenever ready to upgrade. In fact, if it's $5 or less, I'll upgrade right now while I'm into it.
