Getting a precise reading on noise level is possible with the device you've already got in your pocket. These five Android apps can help you get a better understanding of the noise levels at your site or venue. 

 


 

Sound Meter PRO

 

Earning 4.6 out of 5 stars, this Android app can be calibrated, is very simple to use, and and gives you several graphic interpretations of sounds. It can display a line graph showing dB levels for 30 seconds of use. 

All Android and iOS microphones are intended for human speech, so no app will capture the complete range of sounds and noise. Be sure to obey local privacy laws and use caution with any device.
