## Review summary

AudioVision is praised for its powerful, customizable visualizer and lightweight, offline-friendly design with an ad-free experience. However, multiple users report stability issues (crashes on launch), occasional visualizer/controls problems, and device-specific compatibility or update concerns.

- Excellent customizable visualizer (FFT-based) with high responsiveness and accuracy.
- Lightweight, offline-capable player with a clean, simple UI.
- Ad-free experience.
- Long-standing, familiar design that keeps dedicated users returning.

### Cons

- Crashes on startup / the app can crash immediately and fail to run on some devices.
- Visualizer controls sometimes buggy or removed (e.g., inability to move the visualizer, loop/playlist issues).
- Device compatibility and update concerns, with reports of lag on certain devices and suggestions that the app hasn't been updated in years.
