Want to measure sound level? This is smart sound level meter app for IOS!
Our decibel meter uses your built-in microphone to measure sound volume in decibels (dBA) and also displays samples on graph.
Features:
- Indicates decibel by digital screen
- Display the current noise reference
- Display min/avg/max decibel values
- Display decibel by graph line
This app is excellent for the UI, it’s so simple and clear but it’s useless other than as a comparator as the displayed readings are clearly out of calibration. iPad mini reads average 20.1 dB and iPhone reads 24.7 average when both are placed next to each other. Both these readings are very much too low but no way to adjust calibration so unfortunately the app is of no real use. It’s such a pity as “the ship sank for a ‘hapeth of tar”. 5 star for UI, 5 star for simplicity, but 1 star for application.
Wasn’t sophisticated enough for me
It’s a cute app, but only seems to give A-weighted measurements, not C-weighted which is what you need for most sound-system measurements. Also no response time settings - there should be fast and slow settings. Iya great that it appears to log SPL levels against time, but there appears to be no way to export or save those graphs or logs, nor any way to scroll back to earlier measurements that have now fallen off the left side of the chart. Also not sure how accurate it is, and no obvious way to calibrate it against a professional SPL meter. So, quite pretty, but not useful for me.

Intresting

Straightforward and easy to use and monitor. Superb App.
Amazing
This app is totally amazing. I use it to measure the sound volume for home cinema so I can make sure that the volume is perfect and won’t affect my hearing. There is only one tiny advert at the bottom of the page and nothing else.
Genuinely free and so useful
I’ve found this app so useful. Working with African churches who LOVE to have the PA at 10 (because there isn’t the option of 11) means I can protect my hearing by stepping outside for periods of time
