Die neue Version mit Abo funktioniert, ein Schelm wer schlechtes dabei denkt. ### 1/5 — iOS26에서 실행되지 않습니다. *2025-09-16* iOS26 이전까진 유용하게 잘 사용했습니다. iOS26에서 잘 작동되게 조속히 오류 수정 부탁드려요. ### 1/5 — Crashes on startup *2025-04-30, version 9.3* Not much else to say, goes back to home screen after a flicker. Restarting iPad does not help. ### 2/5 — Stürzt beim Start sofort ab *2024-12-24, version 9.3* Crashes immediately at start-up. iOS 15.8.3. Please fix it. Thank you. ### 1/5 — Crashing..Not compatible with IPad Mini 7 *2024-12-18, version 9.3* The app simply does not open ### 1/5 — Верните деньги *2024-08-06* Не запускается ios 17.6 ### 2/5 — 閃退 *2023-10-05, version 9.3* Apple Watch 跟 iPad 都會閃退 ### 4/5 — Excellent! *2023-09-14* Simple, précis et excellent! ### 1/5 — does not work on ipad *2023-02-05, version 7.3.2* The app does not work on original ipad pro 11 with ipados 16.3. When opening the app it does immediately crash. I paid for the pro version and expect support for my device! ### 1/5 — Paid for and it stopped working *2022-12-12, version 7.3.2* Think the dev wants yearly payments now and just gave up on this app ### 1/5 — App failed to open on iPad Pro 11 *2022-05-06* Kinda want my money back. Zero stars as it does work on iPad Pro 11. I am sure a fix will appear..? ### 1/5 — Will not run *2022-05-01, version 7.3.2* I try to open the app on my iPad Pro and it crashes 🙁 ### 2/5 — Ok for DB but not for actually recording sound. *2022-03-31* It does record actual sound and just shows the Rv. It also has a pretty big lag from time you push record to time it actually starts recording. I expected more especially for the price. ### 4/5 — Обновите *2022-03-05* Не запускается на iOS 15.3.1 iPhone 7+ а в целом программа топ ### 1/5 — Вылетает приложение *2021-11-28* При включении - просто не запускается и вылетает ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Crashes *2026-05-18, version 9.3* I can only get it to work with external inputs. Crashes when it tries to use the mic ### 1/5 — Crashes at Start *2026-03-01, version 9.3* Not possible to use anymore. Crashes at start. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all *2026-02-11, version 9.3* I purchased this expecting a working product, but the app closes instantly after starting, making it impossible to use. Support has been unresponsive, even for paid users. Very disappointing experience overall and not worth the cost. ### 1/5 — Crashes instantly - no support *2026-02-11, version 9.3* I purchased this expecting a working product, but the app closes instantly after starting, making it impossible to use. Support has been unresponsive, even for paid users. Very disappointing experience overall and not worth the cost. ### 1/5 — Crash *2025-12-23* Crash avec iOS 26 ### 1/5 — Stürzt jetzt ab *2025-12-16, version 9.3* Die App hat mich Jahre lang begleitet aber seit heute auf iOS 26.2 aktualisiert und nichts mehr geht. Schade ### 1/5 — Seit iOS26 geht nix mehr *2025-12-15, version 9.3* Schade, lief bis iOS26 prima. Nun stürzt die App beim Start direkt ab. Die neuere Version (natürlich als Abo) läuft. Beste Alternative dbMeter Pro. Da wird man nicht abgezockt! ### 1/5 — Шумомер *2025-12-13* Приложение по ходу просто брошенное! После обновления на ios26 и выше оно просто вылетает при входе в него и ВСЁ!!! **Developer response:** Стараюсь. Спасибо. Приятно. ### 1/5 — Stürzt sofort ab mit iOS 26 *2025-12-11* Sehr enttäuschend, im November gekauft für ca 30,- und jetzt mit iOS 26 öffnet sich die App nicht mehr, alle gespeicherten Aufnahmen in der App damit verloren. ### 1/5 — Было неплохо *2025-11-09* Пока автор не решил по второму кругу рубануть бабла и выпустить тоже приложение но отдельной версией с подпиской и более дорогой единоразовой покупкой не предложив старым пользователям ничего взамен ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — dB *2024-12-02* Atende ao que propõe. ### 5/5 — Jest OK *2023-09-29, version 9.3* Apka, spełnia swoje zadanie 👍 ### 5/5 — Great app!!!! *2021-11-27, version 7.3.2* Nice to have a meter like this in your pocket or on your wrist. Well done! ### 5/5 — Превосходно! *2021-11-16* Реализация - блеск! Приложение - восторг! ### 5/5 — Hi *2021-10-16, version 7.3.2* Well around app for monitoring noise. ### 5/5 — Nice proof. *2021-08-16* Neighbors who would have you believe that your music is too loud will want to reconsider giving you grief when you can prove the actual volume. Takes much of the subjectivity out of neighborly complaints. ### 5/5 — Dobra aplikacja *2021-07-27, version 7.3.2* Robi co trzeba i wyniki są bliskie z profesjonalnym miernikiem także więcej od aplikacji na telefon nie potrzebuje. ### 5/5 — dB Meter *2021-06-10, version 7.3.2* Works great ### 5/5 — Doesn’t seem to register loud invironments *2021-06-09* I am not sure if I know how to operate it. But several places were so loud you couldn’t talk and the meter registered quiet street. ### 5/5 — Parrotman 2 *2021-05-25* Handy to solve sound issues --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
