Sound Meter Pro for Android
Works perfectly, I have used it while doing sound for live acts.
Good app for what it is.
As a completely uninformed person I can say this app is great. I find it very entertaining to see just how loud or quite places really are. The only thing I would add is the ability to filter ambient noise and measure just a new sound and not the new sound plus the ambient - background noise. For example if I wish to know how loud a machine is I would take a background reading and then start the machine for a sound level of just it. Perhaps this is impossible, perhaps the app can already do this and I haven't figured out how.
Very loud for some lol ????
Nice app, easy to get the noise level and reading
Simple and easy to read displays. I thought it worth paying for the app
My real decibel meter matches your app , nicely
The capture facility earns the fifth star
Use it quite often as I'm a geek.
This app is exactly what I wanted. A decibel meter.
Works for me.
Fantastic meter. Works better than expected.
Very helpful. Works a treat.
Great app
Great app!
This is a great little app that does just what it should without being burdened with extraneous bells and whistles. Very easy to use. The vibrometer is cool but not sure what I'll use it for.
Great for monitoring noise to see just how much I'm annoying the neighbours.
Doesnt go above 90 decibels. Doesnt serve the purpose it should have been mentioned as it's a paid app
Interesting and useful. I an working as a labourer on various building sites.
Very helpfull app.
Very Nice
Please add a list of calibrated models to the description
Does just what I need!
It's easy to use and looks attractive. It's no substitute for an actual meter (mobile phone microphones aren't much use above 90dB as they were never designed for such high SPLs). But did casual use it's fine.
This is complete garbage!! I am into car audio and have had my system tested on a real decibel meter and this app is not even close to accurate!!! I get that it is a phone app but I thought it would be good for on the go decibel readings...I was wrong!! Waste of money and time!!!!

Nice app that delivers what it promises. Simple and clean interface that makes sense without clutter.
Great tool for a quick look at sound levels and it is accurate.
I could only read up to 86dB on my Galaxy S6
Excellent app
Great app...
Nice application. A thank needs to go to the developers for explaining limitations, sound level and frequency, in the description. I can verify that on a Nexus 5X, I see no level greater than 90dB, and will unfortunately need to purchase a dedicated sound level meter. Finally, a comment to the developers concerning the UI, with the common symbol for a reset button in the lower left of the gauge, there's no reason to have the ugly text "To reset the values, hold your finger on the middle of the wheel" pointing out a counterintuitive UI design, and the text takes up space that could be made more useful, e.g., a slightly larger graph or a cleaner UI.
I wanted to use this to measure the subway sound level but readings max out 90dB even though the meter shows it can go to 180dB. Using a Droid.
As a musician I am often concerned about noise levels and this app does a good job at informing. I wish it was a bit more refined though.
Niece to know how loud something is, this app does just that.
Can not export CSV! ripped off.
And response time is good.
Seems to be fairly accurate. I am very happy with it.
I've downloaded this app three times to different Samsung Galaxy S4 phones. It is very useful and I found it to be quite accurate. I have been dealing with land use issues at my business for five years. I have several grumpy neighbors who had been making very wild claims about the noise and vibrations at my site. I've hired a professional audio engineer to do sound studies and I was able to compare the readings of the Sound Meter Pro with highly accurate recording equipment. The Sound Meter Pro was producing readings that within +/- 1 dB relative to the $15,000.00 system the engineer was using. While the app would not be admissible in court and I cannot do 24 hour recordings that can be analyzed later, it does give a very good picture of what is happening in the moment and for brief recordings. An added benefit was finding that there is a vibrometer built into the app as well. This was extremely important in my land use issues as well. I was able to do a quick vibration study at the site that the land use hearings officer found far more compelling than the neighbors across the street claiming that the windows in their houses were rattling.

Love it been using it for years now at home and being a professional musician at live shows very accurate and dependable
