Recommended Free Tools
Choose an EQ preset or make your own
Open the app’s sound settings to browse the built-in EQ presets or create a custom EQ. If the sound seems weak or unbalanced, first try different ear-tip sizes; the fit can differ between ears. Also test another track or audio source to help determine whether the issue is the fit, source, or EQ rather than assuming an EQ change will fix it. Soundcore sound-quality tips
Ask support about an alternate sound profile
If you remain dissatisfied after adjusting fit and EQ, Soundcore says you can contact Help & Feedback in the app with the serial number and a brief description of the sound concern. Support may push alternate sound-profile firmware, and Soundcore says it can restore the original profile on request. This is a support escalation, not a standard EQ setting or a guaranteed immediate option. Soundcore sound-quality tips
Customize touch controls and ambient sound
The touch-control area is the logo area on each earbud. Use clean, dry fingers. For a double press, make both taps within 400 ms; for a single press, wait more than one second between taps, as Soundcore advises. Soundcore earbud-control guidance
With both earbuds in use
| Gesture | Default action | Can it be customized? |
|---|---|---|
| Slide up on the logo area | Raise volume | No; slide control is reserved for volume. |
| Slide down on the logo area | Lower volume | No; slide control is reserved for volume. |
| Double-press left earbud | Next track | Soundcore identifies this as the default; use the app’s control settings to change assignable actions. |
| Double-press right earbud | Play/pause | Soundcore identifies this as the default; use the app’s control settings to change assignable actions. |
| Long-press either earbud | Switch ambient sound | Normal mode is not in the default switching sequence, but can be enabled through app customization. |
| Single press or triple press | No default action | These gestures can be assigned in the app. |
When using one earbud
Single-earbud controls are configured separately from stereo controls. By default, double-press plays or pauses, and long-press switches ambient sound. Single press and triple press can be customized in the app. Soundcore earbud-control guidance
