PocketHook vs Echorooms

Your iPhone, wired to anything you build. PocketHook is the native chat that connects your Apple devices to your own HTTPS server — your webhook, your n8n workflow, your Home Assistant, your own script. You type, your server answers, and iOS Shortcuts run on cue. No account. No tracking. No middleman between you and your own data. Send a message, watch your server reply with Markdown, images, links, even a Shortcut to trigger automatically. Chain steps. Speak instead of typing. Schedule background checks that poke your server and notify you when something changes. It all happens on your infrastructure, through your credentials, stored only in the Apple Keychain. PocketHook is a client. It ships with no backend of its own — you bring the server, and your data stays where it belongs. Features: - Connect to any HTTPS server you control - Trigger iOS Shortcuts and Siri from server responses, with multi-step chains - Six built-in App Intents for Siri and user-built Shortcuts: send a message and wait for reply, silent send without chat history, add a local message, and three helpers to extract fields (msg, data, shortcut name) from server responses - Rich chat: Markdown, HTML, images, interactive buttons - Voice dictation in 39 languages via the iOS Speech framework - Background polling with notifications - Offline queue with automatic retry - Optional compatibility mode for servers using a chat-style JSON format - Zero tracking, zero third-party SDKs - Credentials stored in Apple Keychain only Built for developers, tinkerers, automators, and anyone who wants their iPhone to talk to the things they actually run. If you can deploy an HTTPS endpoint, PocketHook plugs straight into it. More info: https://pockethook.app

Repeatability Desk groups baseline and follow-up readings with room, position and equipment context. Compare medians and observed spread while keeping exclusions and missing band fits visible. HOW TO USE THE UPGRADE 1. Capture repeated readings with consistent placement and conditions, or inspect clearly labeled examples. Open Desk and identify the session. 2. Add baseline and follow-up readings. Include at least three readings per group for summaries; record a reason for each exclusion. 3. Review medians and observed ranges, save the session and export the CSV with every included and excluded reading. Room capture, saved reading history, detail views, comparison and acoustic planning references remain. Missing band data is no longer filled with synthetic values in measurement reports. WHAT TO KNOW Three to 12 included readings per group for summaries; up to 50 sessions. Band medians need at least three actual band fits. Observed spread is not a confidence interval or proof that treatment caused a change. Device microphones, placement and ambient conditions affect results. Simulator and example readings are labeled and are not acoustic measurements. Envelope contrast is estimated from the capture, not a calibrated independent noise floor or ISO compliance check. iPhone and iPad. No account required.
