Comments on Ambient sound: hear around for Android

★★★★★ Brandon Wing · Nov 23, 2020

Finally, found an app that gives you true wireless earbud ambient sound. All other apps I have tried only worked with the phones' mic. This one is able to use the earbud mic perfectly!

★★★★☆ Neil Myrick · Nov 29, 2020

Only works with Bluetooth headphones set to telephony, which significantly reduces the audio quality and disables stereo sound. Also, even with the headphones set to telephony, the gain doesn't go high enough to really be able to hear external sounds well. Update: Thanks for your response. I guess I'll have to try it sometime with my phone not in my pocket.

★★★★☆ Ravindran Mokkilmaruthur · Mar 11, 2023

Those who didn't read the About the app portion run the risk of app running in the background and draining battery even after Stop button is pressed. Why not make it stop when that button is pressed. We have to push back button twice now to completely close the app. You can make it to close when Stop button is pressed The equalizer doesn't seem to work and remain after frequencies are changed. The settings go back to default settings ie flat.

★☆☆☆☆ Jose Rivera · Feb 22, 2021

Worse than my regular headphones alone. As in the quality sound is worse than the quality of sound just using my headphones without the app.

★★☆☆☆ Kim Jeansson · Mar 1, 2022

When using Bluetooth earbuds it only uses 1 of the earbuds. Urban ears Luma

★☆☆☆☆ J B · Mar 27, 2022

Terrible it let's u hear the background but then crashes whenever you try to go to the equalizer

★★☆☆☆ Andrew Carr · Nov 8, 2021

Where do the recordings go? Der ... An obvious feature or explanation missing!
