United StatesThe app provides two basic hearing test: pure-tone audiometry and the speech intelligibility test (the digits-in-noise).
Pure-tone audiometry determines the degree of hearing loss in relation to the sound frequency. The test consists in determining the quietest sound that you are able to hear, thus determining your hearing threshold. The digits-in-noise test evaluates speech intelligibility and consists of recognition of the digits in the noise.
The features of the Hearing Test app:
* pure-tone audiometry (using bundled headphones and predefined calibration coefficients from the database),
* the digits-in-noise test for speech intelligibility measurements,
* noise meter to measure background noise during the test,
* calibration of the device (in the case of lack of predefined calibration or for headphones other than bundled).
Additional features:
* high-frequency audiometry,
* classification of the hearing loss,
* comparison with age norms,
* printing of the tests results,
* adding notes,
* calibration adjustment (calibration coefficients may be adjusted on the basis of your results obtained using clinical audiometer),
* verification of calibration coefficients.
Pro version features:
* local database (offline access to tests results, without connecting to the server),
* synchronization (your tests results can be stored in a cloud; data are easy to recover, can be transferred between devices and accessed on different devices).
the app crashes when I try to save to text :(
Useful app. Works well with calibrated headphones.
Does a very good job of giving relative§ info about one's hearing. Even more accurate apparently with calibrated headphones. I strongly recommend you use it before letting an expensive agency persuade you that you're in serious need of their help! If nothing else, it gives you a better idea of your strengths and weaknesses in your audio sensitivity. § - only an audiologist can verify that it's absolute info. But I feel that it probably pretty nearly is, if it finds your headphone coefficients.
Excellent app
Easy test to take. I have not calibrated the data with a younger ear yet.
Does the job
Very interesting. I think study needed to properly understand the results.... BUT... If you suspect you might be having your hearing affected for whatever reason. Id say this is a comprehensive place to start before you bother an actual doctor!
* Improved support for Bluetooth headphones added.
The predefined calibration is currently available for the Sennheiser HD 450BT headphones. More wireless headphone models will be added to the database soon.
* Added option to export data to a text file.
* Added antiphasic stimulus to Digits-in-Noise test.
* Minor bug fixes and improvements.
