Megaphone: Voice Amplifier Reviews

by Metta Mo Betta

I purchased the upgrade to use the bluetooth speaker function. There is a considerable delay which makes an echo rather than a clean and immediate broadcast. Useless for a classroom setting. I emailed the developers for a refund within minutes of download, and days later still have heard no reply.

I do not recommend Megaphone for bluetooth connections.

Just purchase Megaphone because of the WiFi feature. It works great with the WiFi. However, the background noice if you’re within 30 ft of the WiFi speak in horrendous. So bad Megaphone is rendered useless. I plugged my iPhone into the speaker but Megaphone doesn’t work will my iPhone is plugged in. Tried using with my iPhone by itself as the speaker another fail. If the developer could get the WiFi feature to work without the background noise Megaphone would be wonderful and well worth the $2.99 I paid for the feature. But for now it’s not worth paying extra

I know how I said it was the best but now I’m just straight up lying I tried to use it but it kept on making it sound so it couldn’t stop screaming so I was trying to use a microphone because nobody could hear me but all I could hear is eeeeee yeah cup of being so annoying

I don’t think Megaphone explains itself correctly. Megaphone turns your device into the microphone. You have to hold it in you hand and very close to your mouth. The Bluetooth options are to connect your device to a Bluetooth speaker, no other options. Megaphone will not work with iPods or any other headset/earbuds to use for voice. With that said once connected to a Bluetooth speaker the sound is very poor with lots of feed back, reverberation, sound lag, and a tin can feel.

The mic works and all, no issues I thought the sound was ok but I HAD to pay $2.99 just to try using the mic connected to my Bluetooth speaker. I was definitely not satisfied because the sound always delayed which bothered me a lot. Every time I spoke it was delayed like a second or two. This was a waste of money and it won’t even let me have a refund. Don’t purchase, not worth it.

As soon as you try to say something, it pops up with an ad that blocks you, and there’s no way to get out of it, and it’s followed by a “remove ads for $3.99” thing, and there’s no way to get out of that either, so I press the home button to exit out, and guess what? It used my fingerprint to make the purchase. Very deceitful app, and it doesn’t even work.

Basic operation works fine, same as many other apps.
I paid for pro thinking that this will work nice over blurry speakers, but there is a noticeable latency when you want to speak from your phone and hear from Bluetooth speakers.
It doesn’t feel good.

Megaphone is loud and clear but there’s a delay between me speaking and when it comes out of the speaker. It’s so distracting and annoying that it’s difficult to speak when I hear it. There’s three bucks in the trash.

I like Megaphone but the one issue I have is that my bottom mic doesn’t work for iPad when I use my mic. It is really frustrating to know that I can’t use my mic. I updated my iPad and it still doesn’t give me the option to use my bottom mic. Plz help. Overall, I say it is a decent app if you can remove that particular issue.

This is a very cool concept that eliminates the need for a karaoke type device for voice projection purposes.

I would really like to see Megaphone developed further that would allow the user to use Airpods for input and a Bluetooth speaker as the output. From what I can tell, this is not yet possible.

Generally works great, except that the microphone volume is quite low compared with similar apps. This is a problem if you are trying to sing along with the music.

I purched the full app in order to (now, don't laugh) see if I could hear the fruit I just ate being broken down in my stomach, and I can, but because the gurgling sound is relatively low, the mic cuts out quickly and I have to make louder sounds to wake the mic up. A workaround is to move the phone, creating a friction sound loud enough to keep the mic active. As long as this is done before every ten seconds elapses, the mic stays on. Therefore, I'm mostly happy with this purchase. The gurgling sounds are somehow soothing to me. Womb sounds. I can also listen to my heartbeat using Megaphone. Thanks!

Megaphone functions well but I would like the team to keep updating Megaphone since few customers have already payed for the additional features( Bluetooth). After paying I realize that it's not compatible with AirPods. Can u please suggest a fix

by Asteria Aoki

Great app but when I put it to speaker once before it randomly made a REALLY loud screeching noise i have no idea why it did that, next time I turned my volume down and put it on speaker again and it’s fine now, kinda weird but still great app! Just happy I’m not a person with sensitive ears..

Megaphone is the best, my computers audio jack and USB ports was broken. I used this for mic and some Bluetooth head phones for audio, Megaphone works so good I bought the paid part.

All of the regular methods for locating aid bed leaks were either messy or low-probability of success. I used this app and my phone’s headset to listen for the sound of sir escaping from a tiny pinhole. Took me less than 3 minutes, and no mess!

When I am on the treadmill, the noise of the device is so loud that I cannot hear all the dialog on the TV. I set my iPad with this app at the TV speaker and listen to the TV on my Bluetooth headphones. Works like a charm.

This is an amazing app I personally use it for asmr works better than all the others I would prefer this one than any other

Showed up at a party and hosts were struggling with inoperable microphone. They asked me to help and after confirming their microphone was broken, I found this app app on iPhone and it worked like a champ. Thanks for creating Megaphone!👍👍

I didn’t have a mic on my PC for a very long time and wanted to get a mic but then didn’t want to spend more money so I searched up ways to make my iPhone a mic on my PC and got this and it works so well, been using it for a whole year and no problems.
The thing is I recently switched to Samsung and I tried to find to find Megaphone on the google play store and.... nothing, I hope someday you make this for Samsung so I can use my Samsung instead and not pull out my old iPhone to use for a mic.

There is too much lag time between speaking and the audio coming out of the speaker - there is about a second delay which makes the sound completely awkward for both the speaker and listener. I have a new iPhone XR with a fast processor so the problem is Megaphone . How do I get my money back?

by JJWalker001

Downloaded app to use over Bluetooth speaker, but it’s too quiet to be at all useful. Basically as loud as I am already speaking.
I don’t know if this is an issue of incompatibility with iPhone 8, but everything else transmits from my phone through the speaker loud and clear.

If there isn’t a fix, I’ll need a refund.

by Waderpertader

It’s a good app that looks nice and has some nice settings to mess around with, the issue of not having the speaker as an output was fixed in update 5.1, thank you for that. I also love how you can choose which mic you want, it’s so useful.
Also for all the other people saying Bluetooth lags, that’s not Megaphone ’s fault, it’s just how Bluetooth is, most video playing apps delay the video so the video and audio will be synced up, but you can’t do that because this is real time, there is no lagless Bluetooth.
