User Reviews for PocketAudio

Can’t use with Bluetooth

I have a pair of headphones that won’t connect to my computer. I thought this might be the answer. Connect my phone to the computer and then use the Bluetooth headphones. Nope. This app won’t allow you to send the audio through Bluetooth. Waste of money!

Meets a very specific need

I was looking for an app that allows be to speak into my phone to search Google on my HTPC. This works with no issues. For the use the lag isn't a big deal. I haven't used the headphone feature yet but figured it was worth getting. I suppose I could have just purchased the microphone app. This app fits my need perfectly.

Meh

I downloaded this app with high hopes and it did not even work, I tried many different ways to get it to work (including reading all the fine print of the instructions) and make sure that it was not my computers fault instead of the apps, when I use the app it's says it is connected and it shows up on my audio input devices on my computer, except when I use the microphone part of this app it doesn't go through(I was using a pc) so this app might work with a mac but I want a refund

works GREAT!!

Doing live radio shows through spreaker on the computer has never been easier, since the spreaker app doesnt have the multi-deck, this has solved that issue, so thank you!!

At least it worked

I used the app a while ago, so this may not be entirely accurate, but it worked fine, transmitted my voice well. Only issue was latency, but that could be expected as it was transmitting wirelessly, which isn’t known for high-speed, high-fidelity data transfer.

Works, but lags.

The good: The only app I found that extended your speakers and mic over wifi from a computer. The user interface is pretty easy to use and looks clean. It has a big meter so you see your levels all the time.The bad: It is now giving me a 7 second delay and my setup hasn't changed.I am retracting a couple stars because 1. They should have reduced the price to at most $0.99 or free, and 2. Because I haven't seen any improvements for the lag since my last review.

Too slow

Great idea, but it’s too slow. On low quality audio streaming there was a 4 second delay, high quality audio streaming even longer. Hope they improve this, but for now I’m uninstalling.

Don’t waste your money it doesn’t work

I tried everything, can’t believe they charged me $4 for an app that just does not work no matter what you do. Please nobody waste your time or money with this

Best APP I Ever Had

I don't think I have to say anything since I have this app 5 stars!. For my use, I don't mind the delay but it would be perfect if an update will decrease it. I wrote a software to control the house using voice commands. I was stuck when it came to the microphone setup I'll need to have a wireless microphone. Then, BOOM!!!. I found this app!. I'm using it to send my voice commands to the computer that is connected to my house circuit and all my commands are clear!.Keep up the good work!.

SIGNIFICANT Audio Lag

Audio lags roughly 5 seconds. Pretty useless app given the significant audio delay.
