Interesting. It worked really well for me. I used it to set markers and beacons

I doubt Seeing AI will follow this example, it seemed to me that Microsoft
Soundscape was more of an experiment and I assume it is by far the less popular
if you compared it to Seeing AI.

never found it that useful.
This is sad news.
But, I went to the link provided in the update and will copy the text below
following the link. It will become open source, but read below for details and
dates.
The Microsoft Soundscape iOS app is being discontinued as of Jan 3, 2023, and
will not be available for download.
