User Reviews for Hear Boost: Recording Ear Aid

Great app BUT...

I have downloaded numerous sound enhancers and this has by far been my favorite. What little audio I do kno has been self taught, so some of the apps are over my head or more than I’m looking to spend on something I’ll only use in my spare time. I’m satisfied w/ what the app offers after paying for the upgrade. My problem is the CONSTANT CRASHING! I’ve installed-deleted-reinstalled-restored purchases at least a dozen times!!!! If I completely get out of the app I’m unable to reopen w/out doing it all over again! I’ve dealt w/ this extremely irritating issue since my first time closing the app. I have little downtime, so wasting precious mins repeating this process is inconvenient to say the least not to mention having to write such a negative review! I really hope to give this app the 5 stars it deserves!

The good and the bad

The amplification is very impressive and it does help me hear audio books and podcasts when their volume is too low for my somewhat compromised hearing. I use on my iPhone with Bluetooth ear phones, hearing aids and bone conduction headset. The main issue with this use is the microphone is also amplified, not just the audio book and podcast. I am guessing I am not using this app as designed but if there was a microphone mute option I would probably give it 5 stars. The amplification of the microphone input is biased to high tones and does not provide a clear and easy to understand hearing environment. My suggestion for a hearing aid related app is a bridge between hearing aids with native iPhone connectivity to TV’s and other Bluetooth enabled audio sources. Typically this requires hearing aid specific transmitters and receivers with ~$300 price tags. Possibly this app could provide this advanced function as a premium?

I can’t review effectively

So, I wish I could give an accurate review. That is impossible. There are so many features that can’t even be tried out before you pay $4.99 or $3.99. I wouldn’t pay anything like that without testing the features first to see if it’s worth it. I like the recording feature though. I went to test the listening and recording again from out of the room and couldn’t. It wanted me to wait for 5 minutes to listen again!So, here’s my review………….The features seem like they would be cool, but I have no idea how well this app works. 😊

What An Amazing Tool, Ignore the Bad Reviews

Most of the bad reviews are complaints from people who:Think the best things in life should be free.(Seriously, for this powerful app $12USD is definitely worth it)Have no patience to honor the app as they are too lazy do trial & error and play with the different values.I have no audio equalizer experience and it was confusing at first. But after sitting there fine tuning to sounds in and out - it’s astonishing of how well you can tune incoming vibrations of sound coming from far away.Must used wired headphones. Now if you connect phone via Bluetooth to another device to a speaker and then plug in headphones to that.. that works too.ANY Bluetooth device (regardless if it’s high end or not… will have latency issues with any specific app, console game , whatever. That’s BLUETOOTH. So don’t blame the app.Be wise, use patience and $12 for the full range of this app I believe is a steal.Or you can go online and find your own listening device for $30 and it doesn’t come with a recorder, and it’s not as discreet as simply holding your iPhone. Support the app and developers. The completely free version worked well, and I wanted it all. The spaces are a cool edition and can really, really help deafen unwanted background noise while listening.

Fun with Sound

I have hearing loss due to a LOT of music performances and ear splitting recording sessions. The “SPACES” feature is really fun putting you in different spacial relationships with sound sources. And you can really crank the decibel level too but be careful of sudden loud sounds that could blow your mind! I think it’s a great app and am looking forward to trying it in speech making and even musical settings. Thanks so much.Danny M

Great app even better support

Not to get into too muxh detail but I faced a technical Difficulty with part of the paid version of the app. When I encountered this difficulty I emailed them to see what could be done about it. Their responses were prompt, courteous and got the situation solved fantastically. It’s a hold app especially for someone like me, a musician that’s slowly integrating into production which the EQ balance although very simple has been fantastic for introduction and gettingMy feet wet. As the title states although the app is very useful I don’t ever rate apps let alone write a what I consider lengthy review but after the fantastic support shown this is the least I can do. Highly recommend this app

Ok app

Made the noises at a distance way louder than I expected, but the noises were off-beat and distorted, but you could definitely tell there was something or someone at a distance making noises. So I do recommend as a great app to play with or if u think someone is watching u but don’t want them to see you listening. It’s fun to hide your phone near them and use your Bluetooth to listen and have fun with!

Excellent.

The reason I rated this five stars is because as a person who has difficulty hearing upper range sounds I could not hear the birds singing in the morning. If I listen real carefully I can barely hear them on my own but most of the time I can not hear them. I’m living in Arizona at the moment and every morning the The birds are singing back-and-forth to each other.With the voice filter on I’m able to silence much of the background noise and I can clearly hear the birds singing. It’s amazing. I decided to test it on whispering which I cannot hear whispers. I hear a person whispering but it all mushes together. However with this app I clearly can hear the softest whisper and it’s just as amazing. I’ve already purchased unlimited use and I’m thinking about purchasing the equalizer also. I don’t understand the benefit of the different rooms so I think I won’t buy that since the way it is right now seems to be working for me very well. Thanks for a great product.

Hear

This app may work for some people but it’s not working for me #1 no option to switch from headset microphone to phones microphone. #2 when you start the listening feature whatever you do don’t turn it off because it locks you out from using for 5 min witch is an ad for upgrading witch I already have done and waisted my money on. And caused me to lose lots of listening info when recording. Seems that the developer will give a response fast but nothing on my end is set wrong. I understand if there is no microphone option to switch to phones mic. Wish it had that option. As goes for the 5 min upgrade lockout I would have thought it would have gone away after I purchased the upgrades but it did not.

Can you reduce the delay?

I was classically trained on piano and string bass and taught myself other instruments. I’ve continued to play and compose as a hobby all my life. I recently have experienced hearing loss due to Meniere’s that makes it difficult to hear pitch when playing. I tried Listen mode with AirPods but the delay is too long. I downloaded the app and purchased the equalizer hoping there would be no delay. It’s much less but still too much for playing and singing while composing.This app with wired headphones works for conversation since the delay is tolerable. AirPods don’t due to the delay. The delay is tolerable when listening but I have to take the AirPods off whenever I talk, then put them back on to listen. I guess that’s why it’s called Listen mode! That’s OK for certain meetings, or a lecture, or maybe a concert - but not conversation where you are talking. Of course you have to use wired earbuds or headphones.
