"Audio Frequency Analyzer" is a powerful real-time audio analyzer (RTA) app for iPhone. With its simple operation, you can easily measure and evaluate your sound environment. This app measures the frequency response in 30 split band scale of 1/3 octave in real time. It can also display the FFT analysis results. It supports calibration for 1/3-octave bands. By adjusting the characteristics to match not only the built-in microphone but also your external microphone, it achieves high measurement accuracy. "Audio Frequency Analyzer" can be used for various applications, including sound room tuning, speaker settings, audio equipment testing, stage setup measurement, sound mixing environment evaluation and noise environment investigation. Features: - Frequency spectrum response measurement of 1/3 octave unit, 30 bands. (OCT) - FFT Analyzer (FFT) - Observation frequency range: 20 - 23000 Hz - Logarithmic amplitude display. - Touch-scroll function to adjust visible amplitude ranges. - Display the measured value of 1/3 oct bands at OCT mode. (dB@OCT) - Function to change the graph slope at FFT mode. (Slope): -3dB/oct (less than 1kHz), +3dB/oct (1kHz or higher) - Peak hold function. (Hold) - Average display function. (Avg): Time linear averaging. Fast-2.56sec, Slow-12.8 sec - Display response control. (Fast/Slow) - Reset of Measurement display position. (Scroll) - Snapshot of Measurement display. (Snap) - Calibration function in OCT mode. (Calibrate): 1/3 octave band offset and total offset setting. - Supports built-in microphone, headset microphone, and external digital audio connection. Note: The first time you access your microphone and photos after installing the app, the iOS system will ask you for permission to access them. If you have not enabled this setting, the app will not be able to access them due to iOS system privacy restrictions. Please enable the access permission in the iOS setting "Settings > Privacy & Security > Photos or Microphone". Please visit our iOS app support page for more information about this app.

About

Vibration Meter, seismograph

This application uses your phone's accelerometer to measure and record vibrations from various sources, including earthquakes and everyday objects. It displays ground motion on a graph and uses an instrumental intensity scale for analysis. You can also monitor and share your measurement results.

Highlights
  • Measures vibration strength
  • Detects seismic waves
  • Uses accelerometer for analysis
  • Displays ground motion graph
  • Utilizes instrumental intensity scale
  • Monitors and shares results

Vibration meter is an app called seismograph or seismometer, which measures the strength of vibration, quakes, earthquakes, vibrations of the human body or any other objects around you. Our app allows for detecting and recording of seismic waves generated by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, avalanches and other sources of vibration and shocks. Accelerometer in your mobile phone is used for detection of vibrations and measurement analysis. Graph presents a record of the ground motion at a measuring point. Ground movement or an object is presented as a function of time in the three Cartesian axes, with the z axis perpendicular to the Earth's surface and the x- and y- axes parallel to the surface. Mercalli intensity scale is a seismic scale used for measuring the intensity of an earthquake. It measures the effects of an earthquake and it is distinct from the moment of magnitude. Richter Scale assigns a magnitude number to quantify the energy released by an earthquake. Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) is equal to the maximum ground acceleration that occurred during earthquake shaking at location. PGA is equal to the amplitude of the largest absolute acceleration recorded on an accelerogram at a site during a particular earthquake. In this app we use Instrumental Intensity Scale (developed by The United States Geological Survey) which maps peak ground acceleration and peak ground velocity on an intensity scale similar to the felt Mercalli Scale. These values are used to create shake maps by seismologists on around the world. Mercalli Intensity Scale distinguishes the following levels of vibration and impact damage: I. Instrumental - Not felt. Recorded by seismographs. II. Weak - Felt only on top floors of high buildings. III. Slight - Felt indoors, like a passing light truck. IV. Moderate - Windows, doors rattle. Like passing train. V. Rather Strong - Felt by all. Small objects upset. VI. Strong - Books off shelves. Trees shake. Damage. VII. Very Strong - Difficult to stand. Buildings damaged. VIII. Destructive - Significant damage. Trees broken. IX. Violent - General panic. Serious damage. Cracks. X. Intense - Most buildings destroyed. Rails bent. XI. Extreme - Rails bent greatly. Pipelines destroyed. XII. Catastrophic - Near total damage. This app allows you monitor and share the results of your measurements with other users. Measure and monitor all vibration and shocks using smartphone or tablet!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Vibration Meter, seismograph at Free against Audio Frequency Analyzer's $9.99. Vibration Meter, seismograph also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (717 vs 3). Audio Frequency Analyzer's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and review sentiment (60% vs 42%). On update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Vibration Meter, seismograph holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vibration Meter, seismograph has 717 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Audio Frequency Analyzer's written reviews are positive against 42% of Vibration Meter, seismograph's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Audio Frequency Analyzer ships an update every 8 months, Vibration Meter, seismograph every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
