### 1/5 — App not functional

*2019-07-10*

In order for the app to work it needs access to the device’s microphone. On an iPhone the only apps you can give microphone access to are the ones that request it. This app does not request access to the microphone on the iPhone so the user cannot grant it. It is useless.

### 1/5 — There is sound but this app doesn’t measure it

*2018-11-18*

Starkey created a new hearing and sound check application, but it doesn’t work. The application prompts you to go to settings to grant access to the microphone. 

Going to Settings/Microphone, “Listen Carefully” is NOT Listed as requesting access to the microphone on my iPhone 7+. 
As a result, without access to the microphone, it never displays a sound level. 

I work in a noisy environment and prior to iOS 12, I used a similar Starkey application, different name, to track sound levels. That app stopped working. 

Hope they figure out what the issue is, I look forward to relying on this tool again.
