Left-Right Ear N Speaker Test
I made this utility app for mainly below reasons -
- While repairing my Mi Piston ear phone I needed to test which wire is left audio channel and which is right and which one is mic. Out of four wires in ear phone this app can help check these wires.
- To test both ears whether they perceive sounds equally. Sometimes in ear infections or other cases one ear hears much lower than the other. Even in cases of loud sound ears get disturbed.
- To check headphones, earphones for equal volume on both channels.
Important Information:People who cannot hear equal from both ears and have noticeable difference are not able to find correct position of audio source. A person with weak right ear will guess position of sound from center as more left!. Take care of your ears.
Whether you are repairing 3.5mm jack, checking a new earphone, headphone or speakers or similar uses this small simple tool can be very useful. Some nature sounds are added because they are giving calm & peace to head :).

App does what it says. Tests audio channels but can NOT change ANYTHING system-wide. Without root access there is no way to modify secure system settings. If you don't have a slider built-in, root, install custom firmware, or get a different device. My only criticism is it uses Google's material design, which is great, just a little bland. At the very least the BG should be black for eyes sake and cause AMOLED.
By far a 5 star app. It does exactly what it says and it does it very well. The sounds playing at the same level on both sides lets one to do a basic hearing/speaker test. This is a far better app than the apps on the market that only say left and right on the respective channel. TO ALL THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE GIVEN THIS APP 1 STAR BECAUSE IT CAN'T SWAP/SHIFT LEFT AND RIGHT CHANNELS AND BALANCE. BECAUSE YOU CAN'T READ ALL YOU ARE SAYING IS THAT YOU ARE A 1 STAR REVIEWER BUT A 5 STAR DUMB-ASS.
the app was aight, just checking left right channels. it could NOT shift the l/r balance. what is not fine is an update that literally only provides a full screen ad. there is nothing else. just the ad. thats 4 mbs to download an ad machine. oh also, the last note, the hearing hint, yea that, dont do that. it makes you hear worse actually, since you literally overpressure your head. thats where your brain is. dont pressure your head because some app told you to... think, would u
Perfect for the test I needed to make. Right side ear plug is low volume. Left is fine. So, bad headphones after only six months.
The app didnt help me becausec my phone doesnt have a balance slider. However it did do what it was suppose to and it isnt able to acually fix it because of android not wanting allowing them to. Still 5 stars for working.
Through switching left/right phones in mono I discovered the slight inbalance was due to earphones and not to the mobile phone. So the app did its job.
Does what it says. This is only to chek left and right. but I'm looking for volume balance adjustment app.
This option also have an automatic option for it to go left then right automatically it should also have an option to do left and right testing automatically
Helps me determine which is my Left Speaker and which one is my Right Speaker..... Also with headphones lets you determine which side is which good for cheap headphones that sometimes are not labeled
Hey it's not working on my bluetooth earphone. When i test left both buds play. Not working for me.
This application is very useful! This will help me to repair my broken earphone in the future.
It helps me a lot checking my earphone left n right earplug before playing pubg as left and right is not mentioned in my earphone
every time i need to check my new earphones left n right sound i use this app. Thanks!
does what i wanted it to do, great way to check if your ear buds are actually working
Once again, this app plays all sounds through all speakers.
Best app. This app helps me a lot in making 4 buds earphones.
i love this app for testing to see if my left and right channel are working 😄
Does what it promised. But like some users i am looking for an app that can switch the audio directions, devs, any ideas?
This app only test the speaker but not repair yet my one headphone is not wprking
Fixed my phone non balanced audio. thanks
Useful, i used it to see if i need a new headphones.
It only let's you hear bibs on left or right ear no more
AT LEAST TELLING THAT SUCH TYPE OF APPS CANNOT FIX.BTW IT IS GOOD FOR TESTING.
Helps to check which headfone is damage
Only app I have found that truly tests stereo left right test
What a life saver. Just what I was looking for to help test me son hearing. I can't find any app like this one. Thank you for making this app.
This app is useless. Yes, it does honestly mention the fact that it is not for and cannot be used for changing left-right sound balance. But what it does claim to do it test left-right audio channels. Unfortunately, that doesn't work either. The interface shown in the pictures is accurate. However, none of the buttons or sliders do anything. No sound is played from either audio channel. All this app does is, in the words of Daya, "sit still, look pretty."
