Sound Meter
Features:───────■ direct reading in dB■ 0 to 120dB+ (decibels) range■ fast meter response■ max/min values display■ selectable falloff speed■ 5% max error (device dependent)■ A and C weighting method■ mic range (headroom) extension■ device's AGC disable option■ time weighted average (TWA) display■ predefined and custom calibration■ vibrating alert on defined value■ source: microphone or music played■ integrated graphing function■ classic vintage analog look■ meter rotation■ 2 meter faces ■ 8 case skins■ tablet support■ HD graphics■ free
Notes:▔▔▔▔▔1. Due to microphone limitations on different devices the meter range is different, usually the low end of the scale cannot be achieved because of the microphone noise and the upper end of the scale is limited by the microphone distortion on high levels.
2. Devices employing AGC (Automatic Gain Control) that cannot be automatically disabled by this app will have significant measurement errors and limited range. This is not app's fault.
3. If you have measuring problems or doesn't work at all, try to disable "Use high sampling rate" in settings, restart the device and recalibrate.
4. Calibration procedure and other information can be found here:

Meter doesnt move on older android 4.1.2 samsung. Your other meter apps register sound but not this one I want to use for project. It would be great to fix as I like this one best to use with mic input 3.5mm
Wow! This must be the best sound meter on the market. Visually stunning and fully functional. I am impressed.
Internal music player meter. Good app. Like a VU meter of Amplifier.
It doesn't work. It's useless. Please make your meters in widgets too. Please reply to me
crashes every time run, load of useless rubbish
Very cool stuff as usual! Not just cool but technical :-)
Wow I was looking for something like this for a long time now and it is so easy to use
Does not say if it is A or C weighted. Does not allow users to select this.
this don't work
Waste of time
The recent update improves visual aspects which IMO had regressed in previous update. Note to developer. When I first added a star Google Play did not properly save the revised text review (which should now be above).
You've removed the option to calibrate according to the brand of my device. Now it is showing all high readings. I've downgraded to one star only, because it doesn't work on my Asus anymore.
Great app with okay visuals. I would like more customisation with the needle, like damping - slow or fast, etc.
This is the best app I have used for an SPL meter. I would love to donate to remove ads.
Wondering if there are any more calibrations out there? I've matched each phone I had back to the HTC one v calibration. I wonder how far off its strayed since then?
Maxed out straight away it's ok
It works a lot better than some other db meters I've seen on the play store, not the most accurate, but after a little fiddling with the presets I got to +/- 5db of a properly calibrated meter. I just wish there was a SPL graph. Calibration value for a xperia z3 is around 1.2
Not logical to have sound scale instrument yo calibrate this application. It should know our device and predefined. Values...
The needle disappears when the ad on the bottom appears, would love it if this app had a widget. Looks great but doesn't work for me.
I think it measures with a good range, but its no use because the readings are not recorded in a graph. The measurements are there and gone in the blink of an eye.
Calibrated at 70. Overestimated sounds at higher levels. Note 3
I've been searching for an accurate db meter forever! Finally got one thanks!
Being the sound man, i use it to make sure the sound isn't to loud at Church
A good thing is always good
This is not really accuate meter on a pro sound system in a show the meter peaks at 127db which was no where near where my sound levels are im around 500db please fix this problem
Wanted to show my dad how loud he screams and that he needs a hearing aid. But it maxed out at rediculous 93 db. Thats the noise my vacuum cleaner makes. He talks three times louder. I need something that goes up to 200db or 300db. Others complained also that its inaccurate at 110db. Thats because it only goes up to 93.
