I am a HUGE Shure fan and have had my earbuds since I became a mega commuter in 2011. I've gone through the evolution of earbud cables and wireless connection points. My earbuds have stood the testament of time, and now I finally have complete control over how I experience my media. This app defines how users can micro-adjust every aspect of the audio delivery experience. It allows for customization of my new TW2s, and I can't wait to experience them and the app on an up coming trip from the USA to Asia. I'm leaving my Airpod Pro Max’s in the drawer.

Pros: nice interface, great EQ with custom presets, easy playlist creation, none of the Apple online services (yes, that’s a good thing), no attempt at recreating the Apple “up next” travesty, accessed music library but doesn’t see playlists. Cons: no iPad version, no apparent way to share playlists or EQ presets between devices So, if one wants to only play back from a phone and needs EQ settings for multiple audio systems this is a solid app with a nice interface. It will not replace the app Equalizer on my phone for when in need EQ presets (eg. Bluetooth speakers) though. Am still stuck with the the Apple app to sync playlists. If this app could get the playlists from the Apple app the way Equalizer does, it would get 5 stars and become my go to playback app.

Needs customizable controls & user adjustable EQ for environment mode. The new Environment mode has ear piercing amounts of hiss even at the lowest setting 😭. Much less usable now. Loving my AONIC250’s! Missing the ability to customize the controls on the headset however. Having customized controls for each ear would be a huge plus. Being able to enable environment mode with a single press for example (as a customizable setting) would help the hearing impaired significantly with accessibility (vs missing a double press and feeling a bit stupid about it). Also, it was in the manual that calls would only come out of one ear with this headset but if it is possible to update this in the future it would be great for accessibility and the hearing impaired. Thank you so much for this headset! It’s changed my life in a very positive way 🥰
