Noise Monitor and Analysis 3.8.3

The application offers a practical solution for monitoring unwanted noise by enabling quick setup of recording sessions. It exhibits low disk and battery consumption, supporting background and screen-locked recording modes that can extend beyond 12 hours. Noise levels are visually represented through color coding, facilitating easy recognition of similar noise patterns throughout the session.

Noise is analyzed by identifying the instantaneous audio frequencies and assigning them corresponding colors within a rainbow spectrum. The upper graph displays up to six dominant frequencies with the highest intensity centrally positioned, while lesser intensities appear toward the edges.

The lower graph provides an overview of the entire monitoring period. Vertical bars in this section summarize noise activity during specific intervals, with the peak intensity color displayed at the top of each bar and secondary peaks at the bottom.

Similar noise patterns are visually grouped through consistent color arrangements, with louder noises represented by brighter hues. Yellow bars positioned at the bottom of both graphs indicate detected noise peaks.

The application includes rapid review features for efficient analysis: users can visually examine noise events, replay selected noisy segments, skip intervals, and listen at double speed to expedite review processes.

Additional optional functionalities are available as needed, including:

• Adjusting the audio frequency range for analysis
• Capturing and emailing screenshots of monitoring and playback sessions
• Remote monitoring via iCloud Drive
• Receiving periodic updates and noise alerts via email
• Customizing conditions that trigger noise notifications
• Exporting high-quality 48000Hz recordings to Documents or iCloud Drive
• Sharing download links to recordings through email using iOS Mail
• Ensuring unaltered copies are emailed via secure links
• Utilizing location services to document monitoring sites (available in the full version)

Note: For monitoring barking dogs specifically, users are advised to consider the premium application "Bark'n Mad," dedicated to canine noise management.
