### 1/5 — alerts don’t work :(

*2023-04-14, version 1.0*

paid for alerts. don’t work.

### 1/5 — Alarm doesn’t work

*2023-01-01, version 1.0*

Alarm doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2022-07-24, version 1.0*

Just purchased a new quiet compressor to replace a very loud compressor. The old compressor registered 91 dB. The new compressor, which is MUCH quieter than the old one registers 94 dB.  I even purchased the Pro dB and it is inaccurate too. I would like my money back. Not happy.

### 3/5 — DecibelMeter

*2021-02-17*

I have purchased this app however I am having problems I’m having problems deciding how best to use it could you not seem to be able to record or to set the metres so that it also existing noise levels and averages thank you Haydn Williams

### 2/5 — Pro Won’t Reset

*2021-02-02, version 1.0*

Downloaded the free version and worked pretty good. “Upgraded” to Pro and there is no way to reset the daily reading. Waste of money.

### 2/5 — Come on

*2021-01-20, version 1.0*

Won’t reset my daily noise dose after getting pro, so I redownloaded it to reset it, but now I can’t restore purchases. Good app, bad execution🤷‍♂️. Spend your money elsewhere as devs haven’t responded.

### 1/5 — Dosimeter

*2020-09-18*

Bought this and it is not user friendly and I just can’t see how I can get this app started!!! Very frustrating

### 1/5 — Beyond troublesome

*2020-06-12, version 1.0*

The app starts and seems to be reading the room but buttons stop working and it popped up I had 30 seconds to upgrade for (null) it showed $0.00 above that. But trying to buy it leads to an error/retry pop-up window. There are many other apps out there that work the way they were designed to, free and for pay. I don’t care if I had to pay. But I want every button to work regardless of price.

### 1/5 — Alert does not work please issue refund

*2020-05-04, version 1.0*

Alert does not work please issue refund

### 2/5 — It doesn’t work

*2019-10-11, version 1.0*

I would like my money back
