So what is SoundPrint?
It’s an iPhone app that you can download from the App Store. It’s free, and it’s a great way to share your decibel-level experience with other people.
How can it help me?
It’s the perfect companion to Yelp. If you like to check online reviews before you choose a restaurant, you can also check SoundPrint to see if anyone submitted a noise-level reading for it.
How do I use it?
When you’re in a public space, just turn on the app and tap the Soundcheck button. You’ll get a message that says you should run the meter for at least 15 seconds. When the reading seems pretty stable, click to submit it. A list of venue names will pop up. Just choose the name of the location, and it gets added to the map.
Tech specs
SoundPrint is a mobile app available on both iOS and Android. All that’s needed to operate it is a smartphone with a microphone and an internet connection.
Searching for spaces
The main point of SoundPrint is for a user to be able to find a nearby space that fits the noise level they and their social group needs. In the app, this is done by searching for a local venue based on a significant amount of filters available, and the results are displayed via map or list:
Adding a SoundCheck
SoundPrint allows you to add SoundChecks to any location, even your own home. If multiple SoundChecks have been taken at a single location, they give the average dB of all soundchecks. Users can even look further into the app to see the loudest and quietest times of venues, if multiple SoundChecks have been taken.
Who benefits?
Accessibility benefits everyone. And in this case, it’s a long list of people that can benefit from knowing noise levels ahead of time:
What features would make it better
SoundPrint is already an awesome app, but I always have a wishlist for improvements. My wishlist? Automatic sound tracking and having the data available on a public search engine.
Takeaway
We have the tools to reduce the sound around us, but for many people it’s even better when there’s less sound in their surroundings. With SoundPrint, people are empowered to make decisions on their own environments, meaning less auditory overload while spending time in their communities.
