Sound Meter (SPL meter) 1.0.1

The Sound Meter, often referred to as the Sound Pressure Level (SPL) meter, noise level meter, decibel meter (dB meter), or sound level meter, offers a sleek and user-friendly interface. This application effectively utilizes the microphone on smartphones or tablets to measure ambient noise levels in decibels (dB).

It is important to note that the decibel readings from this app may differ from those of a calibrated sound level meter. While it serves as a convenient tool for monitoring environmental noise, users should be aware of its inherent limitations.

• Displays decibel readings through a gauge
• Shows the current noise reference level
• Tracks minimum, average, and maximum decibel values
• Visualizes sound levels using a graph line
• Records elapsed time of exposure to specific decibel levels
• Offers calibration options for different devices

It is essential to keep in mind that the microphones in most devices are optimized for capturing human vocal ranges, which can restrict their ability to pick up extremely loud sounds (approximately 90 dB and above). Therefore, this app should be regarded as an auxiliary tool for general noise measurement. For precise dB values, the use of a professional sound level meter is advisable.
