What's New

We completely redesigned the app and added new features:
- In general, we improved the user experience with a better designed user interface
- The decibels computation was improved to be more precise
- The app now features a real time audio spectrum, showing the present audio frequencies
- We added dynamically changing, descriptive pictures and improved the descriptions for the volume ranges
- We optimized the app for iPhone X and iPhone 11
- The loudness charts now give more information on recordings
- We added a note, that none of the recorded data is sent to third parties
- You can now control with less effort, when the microphone is accessed

App Description

How loud is it right now? This app tells you.

Features:
- Easy to use: Simply start the measurement and directly read the measured volume.
- Precisely calibrated dB (decibels) measurements, almost like a professional measuring device.
- Display of the current volume using a dynamic volume bar and a text display in dB (decibels).
- Dynamic images and live descriptions for the measurement, through which you can learn more about the different sound intensities and their potential health risks.
- Real-time audio frequency spectrum, with which you can directly see, whether the volume you measured is from high or low tones.
- Simply record the volume over any period of time and save it as a summary in the form of a diagram.
- Automatic calculation and display of the maximum, minimum and average volume in the diagram.

"Volume" shows you which environment the measured volume corresponds to and gives you additional, professionally researched information about the health risks of excessive noise levels.

With "Volume" you can also measure and display the available frequency spectrum in real time.

Privacy protection is our top priority. The app uses your internal microphone to measure the volume. The recorded data will never be passed on to third parties. The display of this app may differ slightly from the display of a professional measuring device. We recommend the use of professional equipment for any legally binding measurements of volume levels. The developer and publisher are not responsible for fluctuations in accuracy.
