The app that turns your Android into a digital sound level meter
How much noise is there in your house? And in the street? You can now find out easily (for free) by downloading the APK file of this app that turns your Android into a virtual sound level meter.
How to measure the noise level in your home
Noise Meter is a comprehensive tool for Android devices that helps you measure the sound in decibels with an Android device. That is, this app transforms your mobile or tablet into a digital sound level meter so you can measure the environmental noise level.
The interface shows you the noise level in real-time. Each audio or noise captured is recorded in a graph of lines or bars. You can also customize the appearance of the graphs with several colors.
Measure the volume of sounds with your Android.
This application also includes different types of meters: spectrum, "analog" meter with indications and numbers. The indications that appear below the meter are especially illustrative, as they show us the noise level in decibels and examples (whispers, library, traffic, train...).
In general, this is a very useful tool if you want to measure noise without much complications and for free. Of course, as usual in this type of platforms, this app does not replace the use of professional devices. It is rather to get an idea of the sound level in a place.

- Minimum operating system requirements: Android 5.0.
