Hello! Have you ever wondered what a noisy place this world is? Even at night, in a quiet room, it can actually be quite noisy. By the way, regular exposure to sound above 100 decibels lead to hear damage and even permanent hearing loss. This is not a list of facts for a horror movie, but reasons why you, like us, might once need a sound level meter. Our application is one of the very few on the market that can not only measure the level of noise around, but also help to suppress unwanted sounds: traffic, conversations, the general environment. We wanted to make an application that would determine the level of noise around.
