Ratings and Reviews
It has potential
Right now the app is very basic. I would try it out, but the fact that it has no landscape mode makes it unusable for me.
The intensity slider is great. That is a feature that comes in very handy during a game night.
The app needs more scenes in order to be actually useful. Right now there’s maybe 5?
It has some great features that I would love to use, but right now it isn’t an improvement over just using my own music library.
Great idea, but app has problems
I love the idea, however I had a lot of issues getting the audio to play over a bluetooth device. Airplay doesn’t work either because iOs doesn’t see it as a audio source.
Also the biggest issue is battery drain. Just having this installed was cause for a LOT of battery usage while not even using the app. It reported 100 hours of background use in a week, i only actively tried to use the app for an hour or so.
I will update scoring if these issues get fixed because i love the idea and the UI itself works pretty , but these bugs make it unuseable unfortunately
Fantastic app
The moment I found this app I fell in love. The dynamical switching between ambiance is amazing. Also being able to add one time sound effects like howling, falling or spell-casting makes it so much more immersive!
However, the layout and overall UI is not the best and definitely has some improving to do. For example, the closing of an ambient button’s location is on the right side. It is much more intuitive to have it on the location of the download button (I’ve mistakenly pressed the download button multiple times…).
Overall, great experience, definitely will keep using this, and I can’t wait for more to be added in the future!
