Could you build this?

No iOS does not permit third-party apps to apply an equalizer system-wide across other apps like Spotify or Apple Music. Any workaround relies on platform-restricted mechanisms, and real audio DSP work needs specialist expertise that vibe coding cannot supply.

What it would actually take: A legitimate version would be limited to the app's own audio engine, built with AVAudioEngine and Audio Unit DSP filters, which requires iOS audio and signal-processing expertise. A true system-wide effect is blocked by Apple's sandboxing and would need platform-level access or Apple entitlements that are not generally available. Tuning the sound profiles well also takes audio engineering experience.
