Spectrum Analyzer+ Audio FFT vs Tonscape

Spectrum Analyzer+ Audio FFT shows the live frequency spectrum of any sound your iPhone microphone hears, then lets you capture a 5-second average and read the result: the strongest frequency in Hz, the top components and where the energy sits. ▶ See the spectrum live • 32 bands from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, computed with a 2048-point FFT • Four views: Bars with peak hold, Line, Waterfall and Spectrogram • Peak frequency and peak level update as you listen • Min / Max traces in the Bars view, tap a bar for a cursor readout, freeze the display to study it • Adjustable dB range from 30 to 120 dB ▶ Capture 5 seconds, get an answer Tap Capture 5 s under the graph and hold the sound steady. The app power-averages the spectrum over five seconds and shows a result card: • Strongest component in Hz, with the musical note and cents in Voice mode • Up to three top components with their levels • Share of the detected energy in the low, mid and high part of the selected range • Strongest band level and the FFT resolution of the measurement If the sound is too quiet in that range, the card says so instead of inventing a peak. ▶ Compare before and after Save a capture as a reference (up to 10). Make a change — move a speaker, add treatment, adjust a machine — capture again in the same mode and the card shows the average band-level difference in dB. References can also be overlaid on the live spectrum. ▶ Pick the job • Voice: 80–4000 Hz, shows the note of the strongest pitch • Machine: 20–2000 Hz, looks for 50/60 Hz mains hum and its harmonics • Room: 20–500 Hz, the low end where room modes build up ▶ Export and share • Export a CSV of the live spectrum or of a 5-second capture • Share a short text summary of a capture ▶ Extras • Calibration offset from −20 to +20 dB in 0.5 dB steps to line up with a reference meter • Pink noise generator, unlocked for 24 hours by watching a short ad • Interface in 30 languages ▶ Good to know Levels are relative to the microphone's full scale (dBFS). A phone microphone is not a certified sound level meter, so use the numbers to find frequencies and compare changes, not for compliance measurements. Audio is analysed in memory while you listen and is not saved as a recording. For musicians checking a tone, home studio and hi-fi owners chasing a boomy note, and anyone tracking down a hum from a fridge, fan or transformer.

Tonscape is a precise sine-wave tone generator and real-time spectrum analyzer in one clean app. Dial in any frequency your iPhone can actually produce — from 0.01 Hz up to the hardware Nyquist limit (around 24,000 Hz) — typed to two decimal places or swept with a logarithmic slider. Set the exact pitch you need, control the volume up to full output, and play a pure, continuous sine tone. Then prove it. The built-in microphone spectrum analyzer captures sound in real time and shows you the full frequency spectrum on a live, neon display. A single-frequency detector measures the exact level at any frequency you choose, and a noise-floor comparison tells you whether that frequency is genuinely present above the background — even faint signals buried in noise, thanks to spectral averaging. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Generate exact frequencies to 0.01 Hz, only the ones your device can truly produce - Adjust volume from silent to full power - See a live, averaging FFT spectrum analyzer with peak-hold - Tap the spectrum to probe any frequency independently of the tone you're playing - Get a clear "present / not detected" readout with dB-over-noise - Identify your iPhone model and its estimated speaker range RELAX & SLEEP (Pro) - Binaural beats and isochronic tones with brainwave-band presets (delta, theta, alpha, beta) - White, pink, and brown noise generators - Nature sounds: ocean, rain, wind, stream, campfire - Sleep timer with gentle fade-out, plus background playback so it keeps going with the screen off - One-tap presets: Schumann/earth resonance, Solfeggio, and tuning references SOUND DESIGN (Pro) - Sine, square, triangle, and sawtooth waveforms - Chords and a logarithmic frequency sweep GREAT FOR - Sleep, relaxation, focus, and meditation soundscapes - Testing speakers, headphones, and subwoofers - Checking whether a specific frequency is present in a room or signal - Audio education, tuning references, and equipment checks Note: binaural beats require headphones. Labels for resonance/Solfeggio presets are descriptive only — the app makes no medical or therapeutic claims. Tiny phone speakers roll off at very low and very high frequencies, so some tones may be inaudible through the built-in speaker even though the signal is generated correctly — use headphones or external speakers for the full range.
