RoomFit is very good - my experience and settings

I always have a problem with this calibration. It's better on the iPad than the iPhone, but it's still weak. It cuts my bass all the time. The sound is made as if I put a blanket on the speakers. Without life.

Using the built-in mic on iPad or iPhone will not work well.

See a recent Reddit post below - I don’t know exactly how the curves were derived, but they attempt to compare iPhone, iPad and UMIK-1 microphones. I was surprised at the similarity, but UMIK-1 response appears flatter, and the difference is largest below 50Hz. Is the problem that iPhone and iPad mics just aren’t suitable for bass correction?

Unfortunately the verticale scale in that diagram is 300dB. That will make any difference in response seem small, when in reality it could be a very significant deviation from flat.
This makes the diagram of very limited use, I'm afraid.

The standard vertical scale when looking at loudspeaker responses is 50dB, and it can be much less than that when comparing precision devices like measurement microphones.
