Noise Level dB is a precise and user-friendly sound meter app that measures noise levels in real-time using your device's microphone, displaying accurate decibel readings with instant updates. Visual color indicators clearly show whether the noise is safe, elevated, or dangerous, helping you assess environments like workplaces, concerts, or neighborhoods at a glance. The app automatically captures peak noise values to track the loudest moments during any session. Switch between analog gauge-style displays and digital numeric readouts for the view that suits you best. Graphs visualize noise trends over time, making it easy to understand patterns and changes. Basic calibration lets you fine-tune microphone sensitivity for more reliable results on your specific device. Your latest measurement is always saved for quick reference. Export data in PDF or CSV formats to create professional reports or share findings. The free version saves only your most recent result and offers basic calibration within ยฑ5 dB accuracy. Upgrade to Premium for unlimited measurement history, detailed day/week/month analytics with advanced graphs, full PDF export capabilities, and extended calibration for maximum precision.
