Decibel is a feature-rich sound level meter with sleep tracking, a noise dosimeter, and an advanced Spectrum Analyzer with RTA, FFT, and spectrogram modes.
Decibel turns your device into a powerful sound level meter without any extra hardware. Measure ambient noise in real time, monitor sound levels (dB), and explore frequencies with the built-in Spectrum Analyzer. Capture reliable sound and noise data wherever you are.
Designed for casual users, audio enthusiasts, and sound engineers, Decibel works as a portable sound meter for quick sound checks or deeper audio analysis. Use it to easily check noise levels, test room acoustics, monitor workplace noise, or fine-tune audio equipment. Decibel has various advanced features, including saving and exporting noise measurement data, live sound level overlays for photos and videos, and exporting data to the Health app to track noise exposure over time.

SLEEP TRACKING AND SOUND RECOGNITION
Decibel’s sleep tracking and smart sound recognition help you understand your sleep environment and nighttime noise. While sleep tracking is active, the app can detect common sleep sounds such as snoring, coughing, talking, and other household or environmental noise that may affect sleep quality.
Each detected sound appears on a detailed sleep timeline, so you can see exactly when disruptions occurred and play back the related audio. This makes it easier to identify snoring patterns, sleep disturbances, and noise events that impact your rest.
All sleep sound recognition and audio analysis are performed entirely on your device using advanced on-device machine learning. Recordings stay private, are processed locally, and never leave your device.

Subscription???
ObserverObserves
Lol seriously everything is subscription based these days?? Why would I pay a subscription for such a simple tool, and when so many free alternatives are right here on the App Store? Sheesh!
Developer Response
Thank you for your feedback. I would like to clarify that Decibel has a free version that you can access by simply closing the free trial pop-up after downloading the app. The subscription is for the Pro version that includes more complex features (spectrum analyzer, photo and video noise overlay, unlimited recordings, etc.) and it reflects the the complexity of these additional features and the large number of resources that go into their development such as staff, hours of work, expensive calibration equipment, rent for sound laboratories, etc. It also reflects the fact that I am constantly working on releasing improved features and updates.
• UI optimizations for iPhone Air
• In some rare cases, audio processing caused the app to crash on iOS versions prior to 26. This update may fix this issue.
