How old are your ears? EarCheck is a playful sound game: it plays tones from low to very high pitch, you tap when you hear them, and the game guesses your "hearing age" — the age group that typically reports hearing the highest tone you caught. Challenge your friends, try the no-cheat mode with silent trap rounds, and share your score as a PDF. • Just for fun — a 3-minute sound challenge • No-cheat mode: silent trap rounds catch bluffing • Share your hearing-age score as a PDF • Free forever. No ads. No accounts. • Works fully offline — no data ever leaves your device • Sources cited in-app (WHO, NIH/NIDCD, ISO 7029) IMPORTANT: EarCheck is a game for entertainment purposes only. It is not a medical test, diagnosis, or medical device, and it cannot measure your hearing health. In addition to playing, always seek the advice of a doctor or qualified hearing specialist with any questions or concerns about your hearing, and before making any medical decisions.
