Accudio™ Pro App Reviews

In its latest inception, many bugs that people have complained about are gone. But the EQ and Accudios application of the GoldenEars data to create presets are the really important thing...and the only thing that really matters to me. Here, Accudio succeeds quite well. I play my music through a highly-regarded outboard amp, through state-of-the-art transducers (Shure and Audeze) On both counts (more on the Audeze than the Shure), the preset EQ settings are very good indeed. But other things will also impact sound including amplification, cables, the quality of your source and, most importantly, your own tastes and the state of your own hearing. So although Accudio is good at what it does, their presets are best seen as "educated suggestions", that most will inevitably want to tweak or improve upon. But this is a good place to start.

Waste of money!!! Do yourself a favor and buy a decent player. If I could get a refund I would.

You may have noticed the large number of 1* reviews, some complain about crashes but a large number complain about the inability to play iTunes Match music. Let me tell you upfront: YOU WILL NOT FIND A SINGLE EQ CAPABLE MUSIC APP ON THE APP STORE THAT CAN PLAY ITUNES MATCH OR THE NEW SUBSCRIPTION BASED ITUNES MUSIC. This is because these songs are DRM (Digital Rights Management) protected. Basically they (both Apple and publishers) dont want an app to be able to copy (pirate) the music data. EQ capability exclusively revolves around the ability to read and manipulate audio data, so these songs are off limits. If you want to EQ music on iOS devices, you must PURCHASE THE SONG. Also, I have not experienced any crashing during my 10+ hours of use. Now with all that out of the way, this app is great at doing what it advertises: providing uncolored, neutral EQ presets for a vast amount of different headphone models. It will not make your earpods sound like Sennheisers, but it can make an ok pair of headphones sound good and a good pair sound great. Their headphone preset database is pretty expansive and updated regularly. It made my Jaybird Bluebuds X sound much better than without EQ. Good job Accudio!

Ive had this app for a while and have held on to it to see how it gets developed and one thing that they havent fixed is the apps most glaring problem. When in album view, if you select an album that doesnt have an artist name underneath the album name, it will kill the app. Every single time. If you select an album with a name underneath it then it will open regularly. Please fix this already? Add Gapless Playback please? Thanks-

This would be a fantastic app. Using on my Sennheiser IE80’s which I was just about to return before I found this app. Simple controls to control my sound (like bass, sub-bass, voice, treble etc.), no confusing and hard to use parametric eq and it improved the sound tremendously and really showed me (almost miraculously) what my headphones could do. The only problem…well there’s 2: 1) it keeps crashing when selecting particular albums to play (it’s choosey about what it will play and what it won’t) 2) The link to “Report a Problem” is not working and the site is no longer there so there is no one to report the issues to and I would suspect no one updating and fixing the app. I wish they would prove me wrong. As fantastic as it is I would stay away until they fix the constant crashing issue. ====================================================== So I figured out I had to go into iTunes and uncheck “Compilation” for every single album in my library, so now it plays the albums but crashes when attempting to access a Playlist. If they can fix that then they might get a full 5 stars from me. And oh I noticed a song that has the cloud symbol next to it (and therefore is unable to play) but the track is clearly on my device as witnessed through Apple’s music player...once again I have no idea why it’s doing that also.

Its not a high end player . It doesnt even play dsd files . It doesnt worth that much money

Its not support to play flac or ape! Also local folder music, wasting my money...
