User Reviews

The Arctis Companion app is generally praised as a strong, value-adding headset companion, especially for Arctis Nova. However, major recurring issues include lack of Nova Pro Wireless support, no firmware updates via mobile, flaky connectivity, inconsistent battery readings, and gaps in mobile-feature parity (EQ, mic gain, presets). Users see it as better than some competitors, but mobile-first limitations hinder the experience.

Pros

  • Solid, positive companion app that enhances the headset experience.
  • Viewed as a valuable addition for Arctis Nova headsets on mobile.
  • Often perceived as a better mobile experience compared to some competing headset ecosystems.

Cons

  • Arctis Nova Pro Wireless compatibility is missing or unreliable in the mobile app (doesn't show up/won't connect).
  • Firmware updates via the mobile app are not supported (needs PC or other method).
  • Connectivity/pairing can be flaky or finicky, with repeated setup steps needed.
  • Battery level readings are inconsistent between the app and the device's Bluetooth system.
  • Missing mobile features (e.g., mobile EQ, microphone gain/noise gate) and lack of saving PC presets for mobile use.
