Sony | Sound Connect

What Sony | Sound Connect does

Sony | Sound Connect is a control app for compatible Sony headphones and other personal audio devices. It connects the hardware to a phone so you can adjust listening settings, manage device features, and keep the product’s software up to date. It is aimed at Sony audio owners who want more control than the buttons on the device provide.

Audio controls

The app includes an equalizer for changing the balance of different frequencies, along with controls for noise cancelling and ambient sound. Supported devices can use Adaptive Sound Control to change listening settings based on activity or location. Some models also support spatial sound settings and multipoint connection management, so the available controls depend on the Sony product you pair with it.

Device management

• Adjust sound to suit personal preferences or different types of content.
• Choose how much surrounding sound is allowed through while listening.
• Manage supported automatic listening profiles and connection options.
• Check for firmware updates and receive information from Sony.
• Review sound exposure information on devices that provide listening-level monitoring.

Who it suits

This is most useful for people already using compatible Sony headphones or earbuds, especially those who regularly change noise-control, equalizer, or connection settings. It is less relevant if you do not own Sony audio hardware, since its main purpose is device control rather than general music playback.

Published by Sony Corporation, the app is listed in the Tools category and has a 4.28 rating from more than 345,000 reviews. It has recorded 10,000,000+ installs.
