## What is ClapReverb?

Measure the acoustics of a room... with a simple clap
ClapReverb lets you instantly evaluate the reverberation time (RT) of an enclosed space — a key factor in determining a room’s acoustic quality. Is the room too echoey? Or too dry? Get the answer in just a few seconds.

Simple, fast, and precise
With a clean design and intuitive interface, all it takes is a quiet moment and five hand claps. Place your phone or tablet at the center of the room, wait for the signal, and clap your hands (slightly cupped palms). The app analyzes the relevant frequencies and provides a clear picture of the room's acoustics.

A professional tool, accessible to everyone
Whether you’re an architect, interior designer, engineer, teacher, musician — or simply curious — ClapReverb is for anyone who wants to integrate acoustics into their projects. Easily compare your results to typical reference values and decide if acoustic treatment is needed.

Scientifically validated
The app’s results have been verified through a rigorous experimental protocol, presented at the 26th International Congress on Sound & Vibration.

### 1/5 — Bug

*2025-04-20, version 2.3.1*

Téléchargé le 20/04/25 : iPhone 15, IOS 18.4 : l’application quitte presque à chaque essai lorsqu’on touche le bouton « calculer ».

### 5/5 — Thanks for the update

*2025-03-25, version 2.3.0*

Ça fait plaisir de savoir que l'application est toujours développée!

### 5/5 — Great App !

*2025-03-17, version 2.2.3*

Incredible results

### 1/5 — It's a shame.

*2024-05-15, version 2.2.3*

Good looking app, but it's not working. After the compute button is pressed it shuts down.

### 3/5 — Does not work for me

*2024-03-14, version 2.2.3*

I've got terrible echo/reverbation in part of my office room. The output from this app said it is fine and no problem detected. I hoped to be able to compare results before and after i install acoustic panels.

### 1/5 — Won’t work

*2024-01-04, version 2.2.3*

Won’t work on Apple ISO 17

### 5/5 — iP15P

*2024-01-01, version 2.2.3*

Very helpful app.

### 5/5 — Parfait !

*2023-12-31, version 2.2.3*

Petite application facile à utiliser. Permet de se faire une idée plus précise et surtout plus convaincante vis à vis des tiers que ce qu’on obtient "à l’oreille" : étant musicien, j’ai parfois du mal à faire comprendre l’importance de la réverbération aux "profanes".

Effectivement, on a un sifflement au départ, qu’on élimine facilement en baissant le volume. 

Bravo et merci !

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2023-07-29, version 2.2.3*

Only thing I got from this is some sore hands from claping. Doesn’t work. Don’t waste your time on this one. Not even any troubleshooting options to try and figure out why it failed so miserably.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t wait for claps

*2023-01-01, version 2.2.2*

Creates distortion noise out of speaker, rendering app useless. 

Does not work.
