Issues with the Autogenic Drainage App

Posted by jml6812 @jml6812, Feb 14 8:21am

I’ve been using the app and found it very helpful. However after doing an update I’m having trouble. The sound is so low I really can’t even hear it. Is this unique to my phone or are others having trouble? I’m on an iPhone.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the MAC & Bronchiectasis Support Group.

Having trouble also on iPhone. Contact the creators on the app and maybe they'll release a fix sooner than later.

I did that. Hopefully others will too. Thanks -- at least I know wasn't only me

On another lung Facebook group, someone found if you use the recording feature to record the app at the same time that you play the app, the sound volume is back to normal. This is for an iPhone. I tried it this morning and it worked. I put the apps side by side on the screen to make it easier to move between them. Temporary solution until they get the app fixed.

The app is very quiet on my phone but plays normal sound on my iPad.

Just checked and on max volume on my iPhone it’s definitely not very loud.

I don’t know, if I am using the same app but I have no problem hearing it. It is the app with the blue circle increasing, when you breath in and decreasing , when you exhale.

Some people have issues with volume while others do not. I wonder if the low volume output is related to some setting somewhere. I've fiddled around with various settings to no avail. I also deleted and reinstalled the app, rebooted the iPhone, every thing I could think of.

Hi everyone!
I have been in touch with the developer and he is in the midst of rewriting the software for the Autogenic Drainage app. He knows that the volume is an issue on the iPhone. Because he does this on the weekend, he might need a little extra time to work out the bugs.

Warm regards,

I’m trying to figure out what app

@ljostroga1973 It's called Autogenic Drainage even though the title of this thread says Authentic Drainage, a typo no doubt.

Available free from both Apple and Android app stores. It's a breathing coach -- counts breath holds in and out. I find it quite useful for keeping focussed on airway clearance. I hope the developer fixes the volume (and spelling mistakes) soon!
