I guess I need to look into whether or not this app incorporates low frequencies. I tested my trick stereo which consisted of one 12, and 4 6×9 with a total of 450 watts. I scored 118db. I never tested it without the subwoofers. it is very responsive and does exactly what it need to […]

Unless you agree to all of the pre-arranged advertisements and personal data sharing in the initial window, you will be unable to access any features of the app. Alternatively, you can choose to purchase the ad-free version, which is very reasonably priced. It raises concerns about the transparency of the options presented to users, as […]

Random pop-up adds with sound that can’t be skipped for several seconds while I’m trying to take a measurement. The app doesn’t really give a choice for add preferences. You either consent to share your personal data or pay for the add-free version.

Sadly I must give it 1 star cause I couldn’t even test it for free or have a trial. The initial experience is extremely frustrating and annoying as some people mentioned. Either you use the app with full personalized ads or pay the (small) price. But why not let the user decide if personalized or […]

The app loads quick, but goes to an advertisement within seconds. The app should still run in the background during the non-sound ad, but nope. Tried to listen to how loud fighter jets were, as they took off, but NOTHING! The app wasn’t working in the background, and even worse, it just locked up and […]

Constant ad dump makes this app extremely annoying to use. Literally the popup ad interval is 10 to 15 seconds, with the banner ad always present. Also seems to read a bit high compared to multiple apps across multiple phones. The app itself is decent, but it’s hardly good enough to overcome the constant ads. […]

Simple to use. Hasn’t fallen into the dreaded creating feature trap. It just does what it says, no more. The unabstrusive ad bar is no problem. People who expect completely free apps. are ridiculous. You should get paid for your work. I’m sure they would. Is it lab grade accuracy? I don’t know, probably not. […]

I like the simplicity and usefulness of this app, BUT…. The ads! I nt mind the ads if they will show up quietly, but the first one is quiet, and then one with audio shows up and the button to skip the video becomesslow to respond, this prolonging the play time of the video. I […]

Ridiculous. I’m checking how loud it is so I can make sure the white nose machine isn’t loud enough to affect my newborn’s hearing. After a few seconds, the LOUDEST ad interrupts and shocks my newborn awake as the booming sound goes directly into her ear as I hold the phone and she’s sleeping on […]

not very accurate. it regularly posts levels around 20 decibels higher than actual. it is also not the easiest thing to read st a glance. I had much better success with the Sound meter App from “Creative Gigs”. it posted much closer to the actual sound level, is easy to read, and actually tells you […]

It is basic, however it is exactly what I needed – a sound meter. The truth is all these apps track you. This is why many companies encourage, coerce or make it very painful to use their website. The trackers collect your information and sell it. An app does this without any shame whether it […]

The app gives consistent decibel values when using it on my Pixel 2 XL, so the basics are solid. It’s not my favorite, but I have Play Pass so I take advantage of how simple it is. 4 Stars: Considering it’s not completely free, it would be nice to have some more features like logging […]

So many obtrusive ads that it is almost unusable. Upon opening you get a lower third ad that needs to be minimized, then a few seconds later is a full screen ad with a timer before you can close it, then came an ad to pay to remove ads. Then every 30 seconds or so […]

Ads, ads, and more ads. I don’t mind an ad to support something, but this might be the most ad intensive app i have ever used. Banner ad at the bottom, then every 30 seconds, a full screen ad comes up, and guess what? Most of the those have sound! That, of course, breaks up […]

Works perfectly. Idk why people are saying it doesn’t measure sound while ads are displayed or that it’s difficult to read at a glance. Not seeing either of those issues. Current reading is displayed simultaneously in digital and analog format as well as minimum, average, maximum and graphing for a session. And this is an […]

The dial and needle is nice,we are all familiar with this type of indicator, it’s easy to see and remember registered,just like when I looking at the speedometer in the car while driving. Moreover this sound meter app seems more accurate compare with other fancy looking ones. Thank you for let me use it for […]

First thing that pops up is a privacy disclaimer. No problem. I refuse all optional cookies and confirm my choices. Then an free (with ads) and a paid (no ads) option pops up. No problem I’ll go free and watch a few ads. Apparently the ads don’t like that I refuse optional cookies because I […]

I guess it works well enough to get a general idea of decibel range… but ads with audio literally every 5 to 10 seconds makes it unusable to get a consistent, accurate measurement. Anytime you disable an ad or have it play out, the reading gets disrupted from the audio feedback of you touching the […]

Ridiculous ads. The app is good and it works well. The problem is the ads, they are constantly popping up and auto playing audio from advertisements. To the Developer: I understand you have to make money, and you deserve to because the app is great. The way you are implementing ads however is terrible. I […]

It’s ok. I don’t know how accurate it is, as I don’t have a way to verify its readings. The graph function sounded really cool until I found out you can only see the last 60 seconds, which makes the graph useless. Also no way to save the graph that I can see. Also can’t […]
