About this app

Precise Volume is a fully-featured Equalizer and audio control utility. It is filled with helpful features with the goal of allowing you to customize your audio to sound exactly how you like it.

NOTE: Returning users, try turning on Legacy mode. This may get the app working for you again. Go to Settings -> Equalizer Settings -> Legacy mode

This app overrides Android's default 15-25 volume steps and allows you to set a fully custom number. Other apps may give the illusion of having more volume steps, but this app actually has them.

Modern science tells us that the volume of our music can be just as important as anything else for connecting emotionally. When volume is too loud or too soft for a given song, emotional connection can be lost.

But Precise Volume doesn't just give you more volume steps. It also contains tons of automation features and customization options, such as:

Fully-Featured Equalizer
- Graphic EQ is your standard (but powerful) 10-band Equalizer
- Auto EQ can automatically adjust sound for your specific headphones (compiled by jaakkopasanen - you rock, dude)
- Bass/Compressor boosts bass!
- Reverb creates a simulated environment around your head
- Virtualizer creates a highly immersive surround sound effect
- Volume Booster can be found under Graphic Eq as "post-gain"
- L/R Balance lowers the volume of the left/right channels
- Limiter boosts volume as it safeguards your audio from going above a certain level, while keeping quality

Volume Booster
- Careful with this!

Ratings and reviews

Works as intended + great support! I use this to lower the volume on my Bluetooth earbuds, which are *way too loud*, while still allowing me to use system volume for fine control. This is the best app for that use case I've been able to find. I'm also very happy that the creator responded to me and help me figure out an issue when I ran into one (older phone, needed to turn on Legacy mode). Definitely worth the money I paid.

Needs a backup capability very badly. There are a very large number of settings to have to replace if you could even remember them. Otherwise, it is very helpful. I use it several times in a day while listening to music in various settings. I have also used the time and Bluetooth activation, but I lost them and will have to remember how they were set up.

Was one of my favorite apps before the 2.0 bs. The app really did help boost the volume on my phone. Now it does nothing. I guess in order to get back what you were used to when it actually work. Now they want you to pay. I wouldn't have mind watching an ad or two every so often. That's how decent it was. ☝🏾That was my old review. I followed what I was told. I turned on legacy mode and heard the difference. I think it helps to have developer mode on as well.👍🏾😸
