Fantastic app!
I was trying to find a good app and all of them were just scams. Luckily I checked this app and I could finally find out how loud my show way!

STOP ASKING FOR REVIEWS AS I AM TRYING TO USE IT
2026年時点で優秀かつユーザビリティが高いアプリ
2026年となると過去のレビューはあてにならず良い騒音計測アプリを探すのに苦労します。ですがシンプルで分かりやすいUIであるため、こちらは日本語はサポートしていませんが、英語表記でも困ることはなく期待通りの利用ができます。
デベロッパーに感謝します。

No tracking!
Finally a decibel meter app with no telemetry. And it seems to be done professionally too. Haven’t gone for calibration or tried it with an external microphone yet, but I’m hopeful that that experience will follow suit. Some small UI fixes needed where text boxes float inside of their containers on some of the explainer pages, but other than that super solid.

Thank you for the review and feedback. Please forward the specific issues you encountered with the text boxes to NIOSHNoiseResearch@cdc.gov so we can address them with our next update. Thanks again.

I emailed myself a reading earlier today and it was never sent
Great!
Free and accurate sound level meter. It is very useful. Thank you!
So good I’m surprised it’s free!
It’s just nice that there’s an app out there that does what you want without constantly bombarding you with ads and limiting features

I started using this at work because I needed a way to document the noise level around my desk. The people making decisions about the workspace aren’t the ones sitting there all day, so having actual decibel readings made it easier to show that the constant noise wasn’t just my perception. I was surprised that I had to prove my desk sits around 65 dB for a basic desk job, but I’m glad I had a free tool available to measure it.
I’ve also used it at home to check noise levels around my dogs so I can be more aware of what they’re being exposed to.
I also appreciated that the app is completely free. There were no ads interrupting me and no in-app purchases getting in the way, which is becoming less common.

It helps me with my science project
Microphone unavailable fixed in 1.5.0(52)
I have used NIOSH for several years but it recently fails reporting my internal microphone operates at 16000 Hz and 48 kHz is required. My Starkey hearing aids connected via Bluetooth is the culprit. If I turn off Bluetooth, NIOSH works but Starkey Thrive app can’t connect. Thank you NIOSH for this accommodation.

Shut off bluetooth on Iphone while using with hearing aids.
If bluetooth is on app will will grab hearing aid mics instead of phone mics.

Check for “external” microphones!
Updating my earlier review. It is not intuitive, but if you have an external microphone setup, usually bluetooth (such as your hearing aids!) it may not work.
And kudos to the support folks who saw my first review/complaint and got back to me within about 24 hours with this critical information.
I use the app when working in an operating room, as we have a lot of different equipment that makes variable amounts of noise, and routinely get into the 70dB range and occasionally into the 80s. At which point, I see what we can turn off, to protect everyone’s hearing.

Microphone no longer works (see update below)
Updated app wants 48kHz mic, my iPhone SE only has 24kHz? Please fix the update
Update, problem seems to be related to using my phone thru my hearing aids. When I turn that off, the microphone works fine.
Update 2, thank you to developer who explained that it’s the hearing aid microphone that is getting used instead of the phone microphone. To use the app, don’t have your phone playing thru your hearing aids.

Stopped working due to Hearing Aids
If you connect hearing aids , iOS may cause app to not work because of this additional microphone. You will need to disable Bluetooth . Developer is responsive in helping to resolve issues.
