I honestly had no issues whatsoever trying to connect, I have headphones instead of earbuds though so that may be the difference between me and the other reviews. The app is pretty easy to use and simple to setup. 😁😁😁
Works Better than Indicated

With the new Sesh ANC, I have not had the vast majority of problems described by other users in their reviews of this app paired with other headphones. Given the complex nature of the earphone two button press-and-hold command sequence, it’s a good idea to have the EQ selection offloaded to a visual interface; changing the noise cancellation mode is easier this way as well, although having the ability to adjust ANC with the physical earphone buttons remains useful on a daily basis. It would be an improvement if the headphones themselves would remember the ANC setting rather than having to choose every time they are removed from the case and it’s my hope that this can be included in a firmware update. The only major problem that I’ve had with this app is that if it is not force-closed from the iOS background app selection, the right earphone will cut out frequently; this issue will persist through re-syncing and resetting the earphones according to the manual’s instructions. I was almost ready to return these new earphones to the store before realizing that there is no connectivity issue with audio played from the iPhone to the earphones when the Skullcandy app is not running and not connected to the Sesh ANC. The app can be used to change settings, but must be force-closed when finished or the aforementioned connection issue will occur repeatedly throughout my regular use.
Has some problems.

Dear Skullcandy,I recently had the opportunity to test out your Skullcandy app, and while I found it to be a useful tool for customizing my listening experience, I also noticed some areas where improvements could be made.Firstly, I appreciate the ability to adjust the sound settings on my Skullcandy headphones using the app. Being able to fine-tune the equalizer to my personal preferences is a great feature, and it really enhances my overall listening experience.However, I did encounter some issues with the noise canceling on my Skullcandy ANC Crushers. While the noise canceling feature is effective, it could be improved with a software update. There were times when I still noticed some external noise leaking through, which can be distracting when trying to fully immerse oneself in music or other audio.Additionally, I found that the bass slider on my headphones was not functioning properly. Even when I adjusted the slider to increase the bass, there was little to no change in the actual bass levels. This was disappointing, as the bass is a key component of my listening experience.Overall, I think the Skullcandy app is a useful tool for customizing the sound settings on my headphones. However, there is definitely room for improvement in terms of the noise canceling and bass slider features. I hope that Skullcandy will take these issues into consideration and release a software update to address them.Thank you for your attention to these matters.Sincerely,RedRaptor ☺️
Would be better if it had a purpose other than taking up space.

Works okay with Indy ANC, mostly pointless though. I've written to Skullcandy suggesting that the headphone controls should be user configureable through the app, got a boiler plate non-response describing the "features" that are provided by the software. Would it really be that difficult to let us select which functions we want? Not asking to add new controls, just to toggle existing stuff off and on. I'd like to turn off everything but pause and volume, no track controls are needed for my use and for the love of Pete NO siri or voice control! It tries to open Siri even though "she's" intentionally disabled on my phone and then proceeds to audibly notify me that voice control/dialing or siri is disabled- Yeah, 'cause I turned it off but thanks, goofy robot voice. We should also have a switch to shut the voice prompts off. Apple needs to address the siri/vc issue as well, all headphones attempt to open that talking abomination. 250 megabyte program to deliver 3 preset EQ profiles, ANC/pass-though switch and firmware checks that'll probably never see an update is the best you can do with this? Bloated nonsense. I don't get it.
