"I`m trying this out with bluetooth earbuds (sennheiser MTW3). It`s working, but the quality of the sound is not that great. There also aren`t many options to tinker with to try and improve it. I have tried quite a few other ``sound booster`` apps to help you hear better. They`re all mostly equally bad to be honest. At least what this one does a LOT better, is speed. I don`t know how they do it, but on my oneplus 8 pro, there`s hardly any delay! On ALL the other apps it`s at least one second."

"One of my earbuds was damaged and was quieter than the other so I tried this app to fix it, and it did. However, when listening to music, the quality dropped by a huge amount, so much that in my opinion it isn`t worth it to even use the app for this purpose."

"Crashes every single time I try to use it. Garbage app. This is a native app and Google could care less about improving it (or even making it functional). I`m tired of dealing with very low audio over Bluetooth. What a shame."
