Nice apps
ok
Best app lication thank you so much
Tired using this to clean audio from security footage. Doesn't have an option to import files from your device. Media from your phone must be live audio, and even then the noise reduction button isn't included or wasn't put in the app.
Nice application
Doesn't work
It came with my Pixel 8 and works okay. I tried the recent update but subsequently rolled it back, however. It kept turning off unexpectedly after a couple minutes while using another app or just having the screen locked. It needs an option to configure for either the device mic or headphone mic, though, since I have to have my phone out to use it. Maybe that's just a Bluetooth limitation? Not a bad app as Google apps go, but not great either. It definitely needs more work.
