Loved the noise check feature that showed how long you could safely be around the sound. However, the app crashes now anytime I try to use it and I haven’t found one that is as user friendly to replace it. Please fix the app! ### 4/5 — Nice app *2019-10-30, version 2.0.6* I like this app. Would be nice if the DB meter could also be available on the Apple Watch. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2015-05-20, version 2.0.3* Does not give the graph at the end. ### 1/5 — Results delivered by EMAIL?!?! In 2014? *2014-11-26, version 2.0.3* Full results are not available within the app itself. You are prompted for your full name and email address so that they can send the results to you over email instead of just displaying them in the freakin app. Sounds like a ploy to collect emails for spam. ### 1/5 — Marketing ploy *2014-10-22, version 2.0.3* App asks for email to provide detailed results. Ploy to get your email for other marketing efforts. ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2014-09-15, version 2.0.2* I love this app! I've tried it on 3 people so far and all different results. Impressed!! ### 5/5 — Awesome App *2014-09-11, version 2.0.2* I just downloaded this app and it's indispensable for people with hearing loss who want to protect their ears! I'm a music education major with mild hearing loss, so this app can tell me with local noise levels and if they're potentially damaging or not. I would highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Beautiful Technology! *2014-08-16, version 2.0.1* This is probably the most convenient App I have ever used in my iPhone! I love it. ### 5/5 — Couldn't be any better *2014-02-08, version 1.3.0* This is a perfect app to see how well your hearing is. ### 5/5 — Radical and helpful *2013-12-28, version 1.3.0* I think it's really helpful because I play the drums without headphones and I thought I wasn't able to hear as well and it's true, so now I use ear protection and this app really saved me!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does not work with my hearing aid *2023-03-08* I have Starkey hearing aids. The app says I have to use headphones or earbuds to use the app. I thought the idea was to work with my hearing aids? ### 1/5 — Crashes! *2020-09-10, version 2.0.6* Noise Check crashes every time I try to open it, and I’ve deleted and reinstalled several times. The hearing check works, but I don’t need that. I have an iPhone XS. ### 1/5 — Crashes on sound test *2020-05-06, version 2.0.6* This app. Crashes any time sound check is selected. iPhone 8 Plus 13.4.2 ### 1/5 — App crashes *2020-02-22, version 2.0.6* Constantly ### 1/5 — Crashes *2020-02-13, version 2.0.6* Noise check crashes. I can’t open it. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2019-11-09, version 2.0.6* Noise check crashes. Won’t even open. ### 1/5 — No DB value *2019-05-18, version 2.0.5* I would like to contact you, but your support page doesn’t exist. The app does not ask for microphone access so it can’t listen for sound levels. Please fix. ### 1/5 — No longer working *2019-02-24, version 2.0.5* The app no longer measures volume. ### 1/5 — DB number no longer works *2019-01-02, version 2.0.5* Use to be a great app, recently the dB no longer show up. What a shame ### 1/5 — BAD!!!!!! *2015-08-06, version 2.0.5* Doesn't let you see your results it keeps crashing ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome app, i miss it *2019-05-22, version 2.0.5* Great app, always had it with me for checking noisy environments and the occasional hearing test, stopped working when i upgraded to iphone 8, and reinstall is not fixing it. ### 5/5 — Love it *2017-05-07, version 2.0.5* I have a horrible ear infection and wanted to see how much it was affecting my hearing in that ear. It works! Simple to use and accurate. ### 5/5 — Worked Great, no account needed *2016-02-04, version 2.0.5* This app worked great, reminded me of doing those hearing tests in school as a child when I would have to raise my hand every time I heard a sound. LOL. It doesn't make you set up an account and sign in to anything to take the hearing test or get the results. The results were also broken down very nicely with good info. Obviously not a replacement for a health professional but a good quick way to see how your hearing is doing if you are curious or worried you should see someone for further tests. I like the noise decibel meter too that lets you know the level of noise in your current environment and if it's safe. ### 5/5 — Full results without providing email *2016-01-31, version 2.0.5* Reasonably accurate audio gram with high, medium and low frequencies, totally free. Quick. Used before and after having a wax plug removed. Surprised at the difference. ### 5/5 — Works great *2015-08-21, version 2.0.5* I’ve used it to check the hearing of my parents to convince them they do have some hearing issues. ### 5/5 — No problems at all! *2015-08-19, version 2.0.5* I know I probably should seek a professional either way but this app totally worked and gave me some interesting results. ### 5/5 — Best Hearing Test In The Market!!! *2015-05-30, version 2.0.3* Finally a hearing test that actually tells you what volume the headphones should be for the test. The test portion provides an easy experience and it follows with a simple yet informative results page. The noise level is also a bonus feature to have! ### 5/5 — Very Helpful! *2015-05-20, version 2.0.3* I use this App regularly to test the hearing of friends and family. Great that full results are now delivered in App! ### 5/5 — Great app *2014-10-17, version 2.0.3* I'm preparing for the hearing test at MEPs and this really helped me notice which pitches I can't hear ### 5/5 — Great! *2014-09-20, version 2.0.2* Lately I've been feeling like I've been listening to music too loud. So I decided to see if this test is good and it was ! Great test and easy to use! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
