Thank you for using Decibels. This version fixes a bug that in some cases prevented the microphone from being activated when the app was reopened.

Reviews of Decibels

Quite good

Easy to use and analog meter is an effective method for this purpose.
However the strip recording is odd: nothing intuitive about this!
It seems you can’t stop it, and there is no way to show when the record was made. The top left and right labels are virtually unreadable (for SELECT and DONE), and I don’t see how to annotate them. Am I operating it incorrectly I wonder?

Response from developer

Thanks for your review and comments! The strip chart recorder is meant to be as intuitive as possible, but obviously needs some improvement / instructions. Thanks for pointing at this. Some quick tips for using it: - It continuously records the sound level as long as it is visible on screen. - Tap on the left side (where the strip comes out) to start a fresh strip. - The (start-) date and time is printed on the left side of each strip. - Swipe over a strip on the stack to delete it. - Tap the stack to display all recorded strips. - Two-finger swipe over the list to select multiple strips for sharing or deleting. - Tap a strip in the list to enlarge it, then tap somewhere on it to add a short annotation. There is obviously a bug with the visibility of some buttons in dark mode. Sorry for this - will get fixed.
