Interesting description on the company website:
"Hear is an amazing way to listen to the world. It harmonizes your listening experience which helps you to be less distracted and stressed. The Hear app filters your acoustic environment, takes out harsh sounds and turns stressful noise into harmonic sound environments. Try it now, it's a free download on the app Store!"
hi guys, hi @seanevd Michael from RjDj here. Indeed, it is the same developer. RjDj is back in town :-)
@byzo @seanevd Duuuuuuuuude! I kept wondering where you folks have disappeared. RjDj and specifically eargasm is one of my first and favorite discoveries on an iPhone years ago. Hear looks awesome and I am delighted you are back. But can we please pretty please get the original eargasm filter back somehow? I'll pay whatever you want as an In-App Purchase!
Super fun app. I first tried it on a busy Seattle street and found myself smiling like a dork on the "happy" setting. I was disappointed I couldn't use it with my higher end blue tooth headset though.
@fdorfbauer we got it working on android and seeing all these responses we will def. look into this!
@byzo @fdorfbauer Michael, latency will likely be a challenge on Android for you guys. http://Superpowered.com can help.
@pv @fdorfbauer latency +1 ..we got it to ok level but still an issue!
@byzo @fdorfbauer -- we're all about low latency at Superpowered. If you have any questions, hit us up at hello@superpowered.com
Okay, this is cool. Especially with in-ear noise cancelling headphones. Truly augments reality. I've been using the 'happy' setting for about an hour now, and must admit I'm feeling a bit more chipper than usual at this point in the day. Is there any research pointing to reverb and delay contributing to happiness/contentment? Bravo to the makers!
@mslagh works ok with standar headphones but if you got any in-ear setup or noise cancelling try that.
I can't remember the last time I had so much fun with an iPhone app. Trying to send some people your way: https://tookapic.com/photos/102381 This app is worth sharing.
Congrats @byzo. I already had the chance to test it months ago, it is an awesome app with a unique experience!
Favourite new activity: whistling into the Office filter. Well done, Michael, Rob & co.
I was going to say this reminds me, a lot, of what @rjdj did with the Inception app. But upon further inspection after going to the RjDj website, I was redirected to Hear. Must be the same developer. 😅
Cool! I always love seeing tech that interacts with the physical world. Will def try this out.
Dowloaded, then deleted once I got stuck at "plug in earphones". I use bluetooth headphones. Cords? What?
@smashbase Hi. Bluetooth is a tough one for us... Very low sample rate and therefor latency. We are looking into it but there is a big variety of bluetooth headsets with big quality variations and apps have no info about the kind of headset connected...
@smashbase Bluetooth has really bad audio quality and high latency in full duplex mode. Anyhow, we will add it in the next release .. for the daring
