About iNVH
The iNVH app is a unique application developed by Robert Bosch Engineers, to overcome one of the challenges of field engineers today – An innovative tool to support subjective noise assessments in the field and easy connectivity to Bosch NVH engineers. The tool comes in with a simple to use sound level meter (SLM) module, overall level vs. time module and time data module. The app uses basically the inbuilt microphones and accelerometers, which makes it very convenient. The app comes built in with latest calibration values for most mobiles (as every mobile is different in its own way). However, there is also a sound calibration tool included to improve the accuracy of the noise measurement. This calibration tool is an octave band based tool, as compared to most single value calibration available in the market. The octave band calibration allows the user to do a sensitivity correction in each and every frequency band. For certain mobiles the level of accuracy may not be up-to the mark, hence it is always advisable to do a calibration with an already calibrated phone in the market in order to improve the accuracy. Vibration however is limited to useful frequency of 100 Hz and the mobile weight.
Thanks to the interactive and simple GUI, in addition to being a tool to support subjective assessments, the app can also be used by students who intend to do some simple acoustic measurements for their projects, or operator safety assessments and many other applications. Another feature of the app allows user to record either the processed data or the raw data to be saved and then sent to Bosch engineers for further support or feedback. Theoretically there is no limitation to the size of data that can be stored, and it is depended on the memory available for mobile.
The app by default contains noise calibration values for many of the flagship android mobiles and are documented in EULA (refer EULA)
Currently the app only supports android mobile phones and not android tablets.

Last update works perfectly! Thank you, devs, for fixing! Very useful for monitoring or recording noise and vibration, when the only thing you've got is the phone in your pocket. Not like us engineers ever only have a phone though, no sir. ;-)

Was in vibration measuring mode when I discovered that the phone will launch the camera app when I shake or tilt repeatedly the phone. The Bosch app crashed when I returned from the camera app. :(

High quality interface. Haven't tried the premium features yet. Nice app for quick estimates if you have your phone on you instead of a SLM.

Couple of questions : 1) How does one open a saved file to view the data in excel ?, It seems to be binary 2) Can one apply filter before viewing the FFT ? 3) Can we have pointer on peaks (say four) ? and hold the values

Could be improved with an option to display vibration in Hz for monitoring power tool vibration.

Interpretation of iNVH Bosch Vibration Software. Thanks for providing this software free for use. Its been helpful to me. please kindly explain what (Normal, UI, Game, and Fastest) means as relates to sampling frequency. (1. )i chose Fastest as my sampling frequency. and i had a total of 256 samples spread over 256 points (0.00 to 2.55 seconds). please is my sampling frequency 256?. (2.) from my data i also noticed that (f =1/T) 1/0.01 =100. is this value my bandwidth?meaning i cannot use the app to obtain signals above 100Hz? in the documentation you said for best performance, i should use 128Hz as my sampling frequency. how do i select 128Hz on the device?

No real practical use as there is no analysis in free version. I am sure pro is great but impossible to know. You click go pro.... all you get is an info message to contact via email. Bad show Bosch I expected more
