It doesn’t sense any sound coming in. **Developer response:** Dear Zenoran, sorry to hear you have problem using Noise Control. Please check you iPhone Settings and see if you have enabled Noise Control to access your microphone. ### 1/5 — Did not work. *2019-01-26* This app simply did not work. The yelling of four seven year old boys didn’t set it off. **Developer response:** Dear pjmy28, sorry to hear you have problem using Noise Control. Please check you iPhone Settings and see if you have enabled Noise Control to access your microphone. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2016-07-12, version 0* Can't even open it ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2016-06-28* I click on the app and it automatically shuts down. I've tried deleting the app and re-downloading, updating my phone, and restarting my phone. Never has worked in the least. There is a free app called noise down that works perfect. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2016-06-25* Terrible, it doesn't work. I don't know what I was thinking when I had the hopes that it would work. I want my money back!!!! ### 1/5 — Don't waste money *2016-06-09* I won't take this for free! App does not work! ### 1/5 — Teacher *2016-05-07* Bought this app today. Tap on it and the screen just turns black. Does not work. Don't buy this!! ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2016-03-20* I can't even open this app. I wish I had read the reviews first. Don't waste your money!!! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2016-03-20* Worst ever.... Will not open... REFUND ### 1/5 — Don't bother with this *2016-02-21, version 0* the app doesn't even open up on my phone... very disappointing ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excellent *2016-11-19* I am using this as a classroom management tool in my middle school classroom. My students have responded positively to this app. I recommend plugging your phone into a pair of computer speakers because the warning sound is too low on the phone speaker. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2013-08-17, version 0* Excellent app. Exactly as described. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Works! *2009-09-30* I read other reviews and worried, but I NEEDED to try. Works GREAT for me! Maybe it was the new version? Maybe it's the new 3.1 OS update? I don't care, it works! ### 3/5 — Really useful with small children! *2009-12-11, version 0* This app is a great idea, and it works really well with small kids - it does the shushing for you. Suggestion for the developers though: have a counter showing how many times it has shushed. That way with kids you could set up a reward sytem for staying quiet ("if it shushes you less than 10 times in an hour you get a reward"). ### 2/5 — Bought for classroom use *2018-10-25, version 2.0* I have one particularly noisy class and when I read about this app making a shhing noise at a certain level of noise. I thought it would be great for this group. However, no matter how high the volume control is on my phone, the shhh the app makes is too low to be heard above the noise made by the class. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
