  • Track audio streaming (headphone) and ambient surrounding (environment) sound (as decibels, dB)

  • Instantly get color coded listening times at that dB

    • Green: Enjoy listening throughout the day

    • Yellow: Reduce sound dose by limiting time, moving away from sound, wear hearing protection

    • Orange/Red: Walk away from sound, wear earplugs, stay in green zone for the next day or two

The App can be executed on an iOS platform and does not control the functionalities of the mobile device. 

Sound dB estimates are dependent on dB captured by your phone microphone.

​

The App can be implemented without the input of a  healthcare professional.  

​​

The App is not meant to diagnose or treat hearing impairment.​

 

The App is not a Sound Level Meter which is a calibrated instrument that is required for exact occupational sound monitoring
