Every way you listen.
Your files, SoundCloud, internet radio and podcasts — in one player, all through the same 10-band equalizer and a +24 dB boost with a true limiter.
Everything that touches the sound, in one player
Four sources, one player
Your own files, SoundCloud, internet radio and podcasts, all through the same sound engine.
10-band equalizer
32 Hz to 16 kHz, ±12 dB, 22 presets, plus a dedicated 90 Hz bass shelf.
New
Auto EQ
Detects the genre of what's playing and matches the curve to it, across 17 genres.
Plays offline
Imported tracks and downloaded episodes keep playing with no connection.
Volume boost
Up to +24 dB before a peak limiter, so quiet recordings get genuinely louder without clipping. It raises the level of the audio itself, engages once your phone is already at full volume, and cannot push the hardware past its maximum.
Reverb, speed and balance
6 reverb spaces, 0.5x–2x speed without changing pitch, full stereo balance.
Library, playlists and queue
Files, iCloud Drive, Google Drive, Dropbox and DRM-free iTunes purchases.
Sleep timer, AirPlay and Siri Shortcuts
Fall asleep to it, send it to a speaker, or start it with your voice.
6 colour themes
The whole app recolours, spectrum and player included.
Remixes you won't find on Spotify
Overtone's Popular shelf is built from SoundCloud — remixes, edits and bootlegs of songs you already know, uploaded by the people who made them. These versions sit outside the licensing structure the major streaming catalogues are built on, so those services structurally cannot carry them.
They stream straight from SoundCloud and run through the same equalizer, boost and limiter as everything else in the app.

What Overtone can and can't boost

- DRM-free iTunes tracks
- SoundCloud
- Internet radio
- Podcasts
- Anything played inside Overtone
Can't boost
- Apple Music

iOS does not let any app process audio playing inside another app, and streaming tracks are encrypted. No app on the App Store can do this — if one claims otherwise, it can't deliver it.
