Ear Assist vs Plant Compass Lite

Make voices, TV and lectures louder through your headphones. Ear Assist turns your iPhone or iPad and a pair of headphones into a sound amplifier. It picks up sound through the microphone and plays it louder in your ears, so you can follow the lecture from the back row, keep the TV at a volume that suits you, or catch the conversation at a busy table. LOUDER WHEN YOU NEED IT • Volume control plus Boost: add +6, +12 or +18 dB with headphones • Boost is switched off on the loudspeaker, where it would cause a feedback howl, and limited on the earpiece • The Boost button always shows the gain that is actually applied TWO WAYS TO LISTEN • Natural: the sound as the microphone picks it up. Best for music, birdsong and the atmosphere of a room • Speech: uses Apple's voice processing to reduce background noise and echo. Best for conversation, meetings, lectures and TV SHAPE THE SOUND (EAR ASSIST PRO) • Five-band equalizer from 60 Hz to 14 kHz • Lift the upper bands to bring voices forward, or cut low rumble • Save settings for different places and load them again later YOUR HEADPHONES, YOUR MICROPHONE • Works with wired headphones, AirPods and other Bluetooth headphones • With Bluetooth headphones, Ear Assist uses your iPhone's microphone and keeps full stereo sound, unless you choose the headset microphone • On iOS 26, choose your microphone from the system input menu. Your choice is remembered RECORD LECTURES AND TALKS (EAR ASSIST PRO) • Record what you are listening to, saved on your device as M4A files • Recording starts only when you tap Record, and stops when you tap Stop • Please ask permission before recording other people ABOUT DELAY Listening live through headphones always involves a short delay between the microphone and your ears. It is shortest with wired headphones. Bluetooth headphones add more, and if you can also hear the sound directly you may notice a slight echo. Where delay matters, use wired headphones. GOOD FOR • Lectures, talks and the back of a hall • Meetings and busy restaurants • TV at your own volume without disturbing others • Theater, places of worship and events from far seats • Birdwatching and nature recording PRIVACY Audio is processed on your device. Ear Assist does not upload what it picks up or what you record. The free version shows ads, and the app uses analytics and crash reporting; the App Privacy section on this page lists what those services collect. EAR ASSIST PRO Ear Assist is free with ads. Ear Assist Pro removes the ads and adds recording and the equalizer. Choose a monthly or annual subscription, or a one-off lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and you can manage or cancel them in your App Store account settings. If you bought any feature in an earlier version, Pro is already included. IMPORTANT Ear Assist is an entertainment and convenience utility for listening through headphones. It is not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any condition, and it is no substitute for professional advice or care. If you have any concerns about your ears, speak to a healthcare provider.

top guessing which window your plants need. Plant Compass Lite points your phone at any window and tells you exactly which plants will thrive there, based on the sun's real path through your specific home. Most plant advice gives you a light level: bright indirect, low light, full sun. That tells you nothing about which window in your home actually qualifies. Plant Compass Lite does the work for you. HOW IT WORKS Point your phone's compass at a window. The app calculates how many hours of direct and indirect light that window receives, based on the sun's path for your location and the direction the window faces. Then it matches that window to plants that will genuinely do well there. WHAT YOU GET Point at any window to see its light profile Browse 200+ plants matched to real light requirements See which plants thrive, cope, or struggle at each window Search plants you own or want to buy Identify plants by photo FREE TO TRY Download and use the compass for free. Unlock unlimited plant saves and full collection tracking with a single one-time purchase. No subscription, no recurring charges, ever. Plant Compass Lite was built by a plant shop owner who was tired of watching customers bring home the wrong plant for the wrong window. It is the tool that should have existed years ago.
