User reviews

Neat

This app is pretty nostalgic. Class mates would use this to annoy the heck out of each other.

Quite underrated

I find it odd that it only has 3.6 stars as if typing this review, and this is because (at least for me) it completely works and does the advertised things. I believe any cases in which it hasn’t worked for people are likely outdated software versions, user errors, or “flukes”. But in my scenario it has to have a 5 out of 5 stars because it does exactly what it is supposed to and does not bother me ever with anything, the only advertisements being unnoticeable and at the bottom of the screen, never pop ups.

Hurts and Sticks

IT STICKS TO YOUR EARS! IT HURTS! How about you?

It relly Annoys my mom 😆😆👍🏻

😆😆😆👍🏻 really annoyed my mom but really good

The app works exactly as intended even if you can’t hear it

This app functions exactly as expected, it is absolutely great! The only issue is that I wish the tone buttons on the user interface were in order ie: 9k 10k 11k, etc not 9k 13k 16k, but this doesn’t detract from the app and is a fantastic way to mess with my family. When a lot of people say they can’t hear it, this is true. The app is working, but a lot of people can’t hear these sounds. It simply depends on your ears. Most people over 30 cannot hear anything played on this app and a lot of times people a born with ears that cannot register the sound, the app is working perfectly it is not the apps fault, it yours. Here is a nice video from one of the smartest guys on the internet, at 2:55 he explains how your ears get worse over time and it is harder to pick up these tones

FAQ

What does the High Frequency Sounds app do?

This application allows you to listen to a variety of high-frequency sounds. These sounds are characterized by fast sound wave vibrations, resulting in high pitches. The app can be used as a tool to test hearing capabilities, as the ability to perceive high-pitched sounds can diminish with age.

How can I use this app to test my hearing?

You can use the app to play different high-frequency sounds and gauge whether you can hear them clearly. Since hearing sensitivity to high pitches often declines with age, these sounds can help identify potential differences in hearing ability between younger and older individuals. It's a simple way to get a general idea of your high-frequency hearing.

Is this app free to use?

Yes, the High Frequency Sounds app is completely free to download and use. There are no costs associated with accessing its features or listening to the high-frequency sounds it provides. The app does not feature in-app purchases or advertisements.

What is the difference between high and low frequency sounds?

The pitch of a sound is determined by its frequency. High-frequency sounds are produced by fast sound wave vibrations, resulting in high-pitched noises. Conversely, slow vibrations create low-pitched sounds. This app focuses on the higher end of the sound frequency spectrum.
