| 2024-11-16 |  | | Works with a bit of fiddling on the settings. 2 main issues, though. I used this app because I wanted to use my phone as a microphone for a computer. It seems like it sometimes forgets whether to output through speaker or audio jack. The other issue I'm not sure what to think. There is no icon for it. Seems it can be left recording with no notices even after the window is closed. Probably a good feature for spying on people without their knowing, but I don't think that should be a feature. |
| 2024-11-11 |  | | WORKS WITH USB MIC AND BLUETOOTH EARBUDS. In settings, change your preferred device to the USB mic. Change Mic mode to automatic. Only settings box checked in stereo. Finally, in your phones bluetooth settings, uncheck "calls" for your earbuds. Like the app description says, there will be a delay. This is the only app that allows me to monitor my Audio-Technica mic. |
| 2024-11-05 |  | | i downloaded this app to see if I can use it as a microphone to sing, but it cuts off words so it's not the greatest. I need a substitute until I can get an actual mic 😔 |
| 2024-08-13 |  | | Doesn't properly work with Bluetooth headphones. It forces all sound to phone speaker. And also doesn't work when closing the app in the background (which it's main purpose is to hear your surroundings when playing music, etc). |
| 2024-02-27 |  | | Works pretty good. My problem is that I can't get the 150ms playback delay. The best I can get trial versions about 500ms to 1 sec. Maybe if I purchase, it might be faster. I'm using it to turn my blue tooth headphones into a hearing aid. |
| 2023-07-19 |  | | Very unique app, works well but there's no indication that the app is still running besides the small green recording dot. Would be great if it had a regular persistent notification while it's running like similar apps that run a foreground service, preferably with action buttons (e.g. "stop"). |
| 2023-06-04 |  | | Fantastic! I have been looking for an app that has minimal lag and no nag screens. I have a severe hearing disability, particularly when there is other noise nearby. I got a Bose QC45 to take care of the background noise but needed to have an app that would amplify the person in front of me. Voila! The 150ms lag still allows me to speak to an individual in a crowded room and understand their speech. Totally awesome! |
| 2023-01-10 |  | | Use inbuilt mic instead of default. Latency reduced almost to zero. Would be better if it had music player to sing along. |
| 2022-08-19 |  | | I wanted to hear what my microphone hears (rather than hear myself through my jawbone) to improve my awful singing. This is exactly what I was looking for. The 150 millisecond minimum delay is short enough, and the ability to adjust the delay length is useful. My only complaint is that I can't use the microphone with other apps on the same phone at the same time (which is a limitation of my phone, not this app). |
| 2022-07-21 |  | | Edit: Yes, Checked with enabling one by one and both at the same time also tried changing mic options too but nothing helped! It's just takes input from device mic! ----------------------------------------------- Want to try as speech practice and I found only this app too close for that. But I'm having issues with the mic as it's not taking mic inputs from my Bluetooth Earbuds! Please help ASAP. |
