Measure the noise level with your smartphone
Today you want to go to bed early, but your neighbours have other plans. Are they making too much noise? Are they exceeding the decibel limit allowed in your city? Thanks to downloading the APK file of this app, you no longer need a sound level meter or specific instruments to check.
How to measure decibels with your mobile phone
Decibel X is a noise meter for mobile phones. According to the developers, its functions are optimised for professional use, as it has a calibrated and reliable accuracy.
To find out the noise level of an environment, just touch the green button on the meter. The system will record all sounds while recording, showing the average frequency and the maximum level. It also shows us a scale so that we can see at a glance the level of noise recorded (whispering, car, underground, chainsaw, plane...).
One of the few noise/sound measurement apps on the market that offers pre-calibrated and highly reliable measurements.
But that's not all. It also allows us to take photos or record videos with reports showing noise levels, including date, time and location. On the other hand, it has a noise dosimeter, a sound level meter that measures the noise exposure recorded by the handset.
And all this is presented through an elegant and intuitive interface with lots of technical details, data and graphs. And it even has two themes (light and dark). Without a doubt, it is a very practical and useful app.
Requirements and additional information:
- Minimum operating system requirements: Android 6.0
