Hertzly is a speaker cleaner and audio toolkit for iPhone. Play cleaning tones, check speakers, generate test signals, and measure approximate sound level — all on this device. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Clear — play a high-frequency cleaning cycle intended to help shake moisture or debris from speaker grills. Results vary. It does not repair hardware and does not guarantee water or dust removal. • Speaker Test — play a test sweep and see an on-device frequency-response estimate. For personal reference only, not a lab measurement. • Generator — sine, sweep, square, triangle, sawtooth, white/pink noise, and burst, with frequency, volume, left/right output, and an optional auto-stop timer. • dB Meter — approximate sound-level readings with the microphone. Informational only, not a calibrated meter, and not for safety, workplace, or legal use. • Presets — built-in test tones plus custom presets saved on this iPhone. TRY EACH TOOL ONCE Each tool includes one complimentary use: one cleaning cycle, one Speaker Test, one Generator playback, one dB Meter session, and one custom preset. After that, that tool requires Hertzly Premium. HERTZLY PREMIUM — IN-APP PURCHASE (OPTIONAL SUBSCRIPTION) Hertzly Premium is not included with the free download. It is an auto-renewable Weekly or Yearly subscription sold separately through Apple. Premium unlocks unlimited use of every tool, extra generator options, custom presets, and background playback. Microphone is used only while Speaker Test or dB Meter is running. Audio stays on this iPhone, is not uploaded, and is not saved as a recording. Hertzly is not a medical device and is not a professional sound-level meter. Start at a low volume. Do not hold the phone against your ear during playback or cleaning. SUBSCRIPTIONS Hertzly Premium is available as an auto-renewable subscription: • Weekly • Yearly Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel in iPhone Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions. Any unused portion of a free trial, if offered, is forfeited when you buy a subscription.

Recogny

Recogny is made for Deaf and hard of hearing people. It recognizes who is talking in the room, shows them on screen and gives each person a vibration of their own. In a meeting or at a busy dinner table, you know who has the floor. HOW IT WORKS Recogny listens and tells speakers apart by their voices. Each new voice gets a color; give it a name and next time it is recognized by name. The speaker's card lights up on screen and also shows on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. FEEL WHO IS TALKING Everyone gets a vibration pattern: a rhythm, their name in Braille, or the syllables of their name. You know who is speaking without looking at the screen. With a paired Apple Watch, it taps your wrist too. CAPTIONS Speech is written out at the bottom of the screen. Lines in another language can show a translation underneath. ALERTS • A long vibration when someone says your name • Sounds like a doorbell, an alarm, a crying baby or a barking dog • The camera flash blinks with alerts • A notification when the speaker changes while the app is in the background QUICK ACCESS Control Center, the Action button, Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets, and Siri shortcuts. ACCESSIBILITY Works with VoiceOver. The layout grows with larger text sizes, and cards stop flipping when Reduce Motion is on. PRIVACY No audio is recorded. Recognition and captions run on the phone; names and voice prints stay on this phone only. There is no account, and no ads or tracking. RECOGNY PREMIUM Recognition, background listening and the Dynamic Island are free. Premium adds translation, Apple Watch vibrations, the Home Screen widget and a card that glows in the person's color. Weekly or yearly subscription; it renews automatically at the end of each period unless cancelled. Terms of Use: https://recogny.web.app/kosullar Privacy Policy: https://recogny.web.app/gizlilik
