Helpful tips
  • Keep both the app and your phone’s Bluetooth turned on for the smoothest connection experience.
  • If the app doesn’t detect your earbuds, try removing and re-pairing the Bluetooth connection before reopening the app.
  • Custom EQ settings are saved to your earbuds, so they’ll persist even if you switch to a different phone later, as long as you reconnect via the app on the new device to sync changes.
  • Use Bluetooth Multipoint to stay connected to two devices at once, like your laptop and phone, and switch seamlessly without manually reconnecting.
