HouseCurve is a multi-tool for audio systems. Use it for room correction, adjusting equalizers, setting subwoofer phase, choosing crossovers and more.
Features:
* Sine sweep measurements
* Display magnitude, phase and group delay
* Compare measurements to target curve
* Create and edit target curves
* Generate room correction filters (PEQ or FIR)
* Filters can be used with Roon, Volumio, miniDSP, EqualizerAPO, CamillaDSP and more
* Average and history display modes
* Measurement save and undo
* Use with built-in or external microphones
* Connect with AirPlay, Bluetooth, headphone jack (analog) or use externally played sweeps
HouseCurve measures in-room frequency response by listening to your audio system play a sine sweep. Measurements are displayed on top of a target curve, making it easy to see where adjustment is needed. Multiple measurements can be averaged to fully capture how the system sounds in the listening area. With small changes and repeat measurements, you can manually tune your system to the target curve. If your audio system has a parametric equalizer or convolution engine, HouseCurve can automatically generate filter settings to match the target curve.
HouseCurve can help with home and car audio system tuning, from system equalization and room correction to subwoofer time alignment and speaker placement. Visit housecurve.com for more information on how HouseCurve works and how to use it.
HouseCurve will produce acceptable results with the built in iPhone/iPad microphone. Using calibrated external microphones will provide higher accuracy.
The free version of HouseCurve can measure your audio system and display a magnitude plot (aka "frequency response"). Additional features, such as room correction filter generation, advanced measurement tools and target curve editing can be obtained via in-app purchases.

All you need to measure your setup and design filters to meet your most appreciated target signal curve is embedded! No more need of a computer and several software. I strongly advice to use an external mic to extend the spectrum measurement range and get a better result, but working with the iPhone mic would already give you a good view of you system status and the app capabilities. App is continuously improved over the versions and its creator is very responsive. A must have for audiophiles.
Works great with WIIM amp over AirPlay
I was able to use an external Dayton OmniMic (USB mic) plugged into my iPhone USB-C port. Also could read in the OmniMic calibration file, which is a huge bonus. Generated a 10-stage parametric EQ and loaded into the WIIM app. I’ve got fairly high-end speakers so I focused the tuning on the low-end (bass). Sounds great!
Is there a way to use this over (wired) CarPlay? It seems to default to the crappy car mic since the USB-C port is in use, and it would be better to use the internal iPhone mic since it’s compensated.
Overall great app!!
Worked perfectly
Much easier than buying a mic of fiddling with REW. App is simple but gets the job done well, documentation by the developer is excellent. Multiple measurements and parametric EQ customization works well, I needed to lower the gain maximum and it recalculated a new PEQ for me. Exported my EQ settings directly into EqualizerAPO and it worked perfectly, and my results passed a blind test as a noticeable improvement! Great app, looking forward to further developer support and updates!
Not much of a reason to hate this app!
I found out about HouseCurve through an online audio forum I frequent, through a post from the creator and using info from there, and the apps website, I was able to get my Hi-Fi Speaker Setup sounding a heck of a lot better! It’s not pure night and day, but it’s enough of a difference to appreciate a tool like this. Plus with it being as cheap as it is, even with the added $10 purchase, there’s practically no reason to hate this app!
Remove your case!
This should be part of the intro, I’ve done some audio recording with an iPhone as a USB mic. They have excellent mics BUT you must remove your case, I tested my recordings with and without my slim simple case and the results were very audible. I also found the back omnidirectional mic sounded the best.
This app seems perfect for my simple uses cases, I’ll probably buy it. The interface is a little cumbersome and limited, hopefully that’s just the free version tho.
Works but use with caution
Leap works. I mean it using the mic and our phones so I’m not sure how effective it will be, but I just downloaded it to play around well I can say he must be very careful with this app. Like me, if you have the volume on your phone and equipment up too high when it plays the sweep it blew 59K worth of Martin Logan speakers in my system. And homes so probably should have used a more professional mic, and definitely checked the volume levels. just thought I would throw this out there to others. This is not anything against the app. Other than they should probably put a warning, but more so people don’t play with the volume up too loud.
Worth every penny and then some
This can be used with a parametric or graphic equalizer and you don’t have to buy a a microphone….you just use your phone. Buy it, you will love it!
Thank you!
This was exactly what i was looking for! Breathed life into my system
Very Useful
This app gives great information and the tutorials explain everything in detail. It’s so convenient using just my phone. I’ve learned a lot using it and reading the tutorials over the past year. I’ve used it on multiple car and home systems to find proper crossover settings, align phase and integrate subwoofers.
A simpler approach with Roon
I, like many others, use Roon. This app allows me to perform room correction on my iPad with a test signal routed through Roon. The developer put together some VERY GOOD documentation on how to do this. The results for me were solid. Overall clarity is noticeably better.
For Roon users, the app produces a convolution filter that you can directly import, assuming you pay for the in-app $8 bundle purchase that is required. For me, it was well worth it. I found the overall approach MUCH simpler than the common REW + UMIK-1 path that many forums recommend.
One slight issue I had was I could not start over from scratch without uninstalling and reinstalling the app. The delete button would not remove all the curves. Could be user error, but the documentation is straightforward on how to do it, and it did not work for me.
