I have an Android phone with Dolby Atmos support (enabled in the phone settings).
When using the 360 app (with Sony headphones), do I need to manually disable Dolby on my phone?
Fwiw, I don't notice any difference between 360 with Dolby on and 360 with Dolby off, so I wonder if the app is disabling it by itself.
As far as i know Deezer / Sony is not using Dolby Atmos codec for 360 tracks. They use Sonys own developed codec. So no wondering that you hear no difference after switching your atmos option. Btw the 360 app uses a build in software decoder. May be your phone can decode dolby atmos content with a own hardware decoder or a software decoder integrated in the OS. This imo would explain this option.

Hey everyone! Personally, I have a cellphone with Dolby Atmos support enabled in the settings. From my experience, I have not noticed any enormous difference between the use of the 360 app with Dolby on or off.
Based on what I've gathered, it seems that Deezer/Sony does not utilize the Dolby Atmos codec for 360 tracks. Instead, they use their very own developed codec. This could provide an explanation for why there's no substantial change when switching the Dolby option.
Additionally, it is worth bringing up that the 360 app utilizes a built-in software program decoder. It's possible that positive phones have their personal hardware decoder or a software decoder built-in into the operating system, which may want to explain the alternative to enable Dolby Atmos.
Yes, as I said before 360 isn’t using dolby atmos. But in the meantime Deezer has stopped support for 360 app. And as far as i know there is no software decoder for 360 in the normal Deezer app.
So let’s say… 360 R.I.P.
