Description
This is a fun app that children enjoy and respond to. It's a real boon to any adult who needs to control the levels of noise of a group of children.
For the responsible adult it is like having a virtual assistant with you, constantly monitoring noise levels and letting the children know in a fun and engaging way if noise levels have reached an unacceptable level.
In tests we have found when using this app with groups of children peer pressure alone is generally sufficient to control noise levels.
Summary of Features
• Displays graphically the background noise level in a room in a fun and engaging way.
• Allows the tolerable noise level to be adjusted to cater for those "louder activities" as well compensating for banging doors and other sudden noises with the "sensitivity" and "dampening" sliders.
• When the predefined noise level is exceeded for more than 3 seconds:
1) An audible Alarm is sounded (this can be switched ON or OFF)
2) The App appears to shatter the screen of the Device (this can be switched ON or OFF)
3) A counter, displayed on the noise meter, is incremented by one. Keeping track of the number of “Too Noisy" alarms.(this can be switched ON or OFF)
• There is a built-in "Star Awards" rewards system. It can operated in two modes:
- Achievement Mode In this mode a Star is awarded each time the Class keep their noise under control for a pre-determined period of time. This can be from 1 to 15 minutes. Normally, if the class triggers the alarm in this mode they will lose the Star currently running, however, there is also a switch that, if set to ON, will remove an additional Star every time the Class cause the “Too Noisy” alarm to be triggered.If students get all 10 stars a "Super Star Award" is displayed. Stars can also be manually Awarded and removed by the responsible adult.
- Session Mode In this mode the Teacher sets the length of time for a complete session. This can be any length of time. Perhaps for a full lesson (e.g. 1 hour 10 minutes) or for a time period set to complete a specific task (e.g. 20 minutes). The app will take the session time and divide it by 10 (the maximum number of Stars that can be Won in any one session). The Stars are then awarded at that rate. For example if the Teacher sets the session time to 60 minutes then one Star Awards will be awarded every 6 minutes (60 minutes / 10 Stars = 6 minutes per Star)
• Keep things fresh with over 200 Dial / Background Theme combinations
• The "Alarm Counter" can be reset or disabled completely.
If the noise level is acceptable a happy smiling contented graphic is displayed. If the levels of noise increase beyond what the responsible adult has determined as acceptable, the graphic changes to reflect the unacceptable noise level. Once the level of noise returns to an acceptable level the graphic automatically returns to the happy contented one, however, if the volume of noise remains unacceptably high for more than 3 seconds...an audible alarm is sounded (this can be turned on and off) and the screen of the device appears to shatter! Also, the "Alarm Counter" on the meter is incremented by one (this can be zeroed at any time with a reset button).

Just What I needed! I would love to see a higher sensitivity. I use this app with the kids I work with, but it isn't quite sensitive enough. The kids have to be quite loud to trip the alarm. Still a great app though!

Work best friend I am a first year teacher teaching K-6 Art. 4th-6th grades tend to be very social and noisy while being blissfully unaware of how loud they are. I started using this app on iPhone with them, and the students have been so responsive to it! I switched over to a Galaxy a few days ago and am delighted that an Android version is now available. (I almost paid to switch back to an iPhone when I realized that this app was not available for Android yet, but when I e-mailed support, they informed me that it would be soon.) Having the students monitor their own noise level visually is very effective, and they will shush each other instead of me yelling for them to be quiet when they see the arrow pointing towards orange or red. They also respond positively (with speakers) to the ping of an earned star award and the blaring alarm. Since using this app, I have found that I have more instructional and one-on-one time with students, and am definitely less exhausted at the end of the day!

App does not resound audible messages when thresholds reach limits set. And, I am unable to have my money refunded!!!!

Controls are meaningless, with no explicit settings. It would be a lot more clear to have a sound meter in dB and to set the noise level and delay for alarm explicitly. The way it is currently - don't think I can use it in my classroom.

Wish it would work or there was some help for android. I tried it with my class. No alarm went off when the noise level was too high... and there was no help available for an android. :(
