DB Decibel Meter - sound level measurement tool for Negative User Reviews

✓ Confusing DesignI have 4 different decibel meter apps on my phone/iPad, and I’m sorry to say that this is the least favorite/least used of the lot. In my opinion the graphic design leaves a lot of ambiguity as to when the sound is soft, loud, or too loud. I don’t find this problem with the other apps..Obi-Jon LebowskiVersion: 2.0

✓ Don’t buy this app until updateI’ve purchased this app 5 years ago and was good working but currently does not work correctly. Seller - please fix bug and update this app..Yongsam ChoiVersion: 2.0

✓ ConfusedOne of the available option settings is db A and db C. There is virtually no explanation in the app for the difference other than offering a few examples. But what confuses me after Googling the terms is that some db A-based adjustments rely on information about the neighborhood in which the readings are being taken. As explained by engineers, there are seven kinds of neighborhood upon which db levels are adjusted, and the adjustment range varies from 0 adjustment to a +25 db adjustment. Yet the app doesn't ask you which of the seven standard environments most closely approximates the conditions in which you're using the app. Without that info, your reading can be off by as much as 25 db. That's a lot. If the app just picks one of those environments for every db A reading, which one does it pick? My point is that it doesn't seem possible for this app to detect the appropriate environment given how descriptive these environmental conditions are, and it doesn't seem possible to provide an accurate db reading (i.e. one without a +/- 25 db accuracy range) without the ability to input this info. To the extent that the developer has an explanation for how the app manages to compensate, id love to hear how..YapishkahiltVersion: 2.0

✓ Highly inaccurateThe a, b, c scales are completely off and are not consistent while measuring the exact same 1kHz tone..IAmOzymandiasVersion: 1.1

✓ Not for home cinemaWhile this app will detect sound from higher frequencies From normal speakers it does no pick up lower frequencies from a subwoofer..YobigdawgVersion: 1.1

✓ Basic db meter - no instructionsIt's a basic one-screen db meter, but doesn't explain any of the settings. What is the difference between "Low" and "High", and "Slow" or "Fast"? It's nice that the app features dB-A and dB-C algorithms. The Information button just takes you to links for other apps by this developer. Meh..MystikmikeVersion: 2.0

✓ 27 decibel the lowest?When it’s really quiet in the room like the lowest it will go is 27 I think that it wouldn’t be 0 but I think that it’s quieter than 27, and I live in the country. I think that it may have to do with the sounds that the phone makes plus the electricity that powers the speakers so you guys should try to fix that please if this problem is a problem..DiscoTyler1Version: 2.0

✓ Unable to mesure sound levelUnable to mesure accurately sound level because IOS 16 automatically adjust sound level on the microphone….Jean-FrancineVersion: 2.0

✓ Don't bother... no other featuresThis version of the app is NO different than the free one other than it does not have ads. I thought this would have a way of logging where you were at for different environments (i.e., home, busy streets, at a concert, etc). Nope. Save your money and use the free version..GerperVersion: 2.0

✓ Ridiculously inaccurateDon’t trust the readings at all. It’s way off..TcenterVersion: 2.0

✓ Horrible - REFUND PLEASEThis app is useless. It is not accurate, and it's slow to respond. Refund please..Spence_HVersion: 1.1
