Conceived by a pediatrician and built for families, SoundSafe Kids turns your iPhone into a practical tool for sound allowance tracking, WHO-ITU child guidance, and guided place/object checks.
Start an Exposure Session and track weekly sound allowance for free. The app shows how quickly cumulative exposure adds up in plain language.
SoundSafe Kids applies WHO-ITU child guidance for weekly allowance tracking, so you can interpret exposure status with confidence instead of guessing from one dB number.
Run guided place and object checks to pinpoint where loudness comes from, then follow plain-English recommendations on what to change first.
Open soundsafe.kids/check on iPhone for SoundSafe Quick Check — a live dBA preview without installing the full app, then install when you want allowance tracking and guided checks.
Check that your baby's sleep environment is quiet enough. White noise machines, fans, and nearby appliances can be louder than you think.
Check sound at the crib, bed, or sleep position. White noise machines and fans can be louder at the child's ears than they sound from across the room.
Check the volume where your child watches TV, movies, or games. Room setup and distance from speakers affect what they actually hear.
Check classroom environments. Group activities, cafeterias, and playgrounds can get surprisingly loud.
Run a quick check before settling in for a meal. Some restaurants are much louder than others.
Birthday parties, concerts, sporting events, and festivals can expose children to very high noise levels. Know when ear protection is needed.
Check noise at concerts, games, and sporting events. Amplified music and crowd noise can exceed safe limits quickly — know when ear protection is needed.
Set optional sound sensitivity and support context on a saved child profile — autism, ADHD, sensory sensitivity, anxiety around noise, and more — to get earlier, gentler guidance tuned to your child.
Check noise levels in the car, on airplanes, or on public transit. Long journeys at moderate noise levels add up.
Understand the baseline noise in your home from HVAC, appliances, and ambient sources. A quieter home helps hearing and focus.
Check how loud that new toy or musical instrument really is. Some children's products are surprisingly loud up close.
SoundSafe Kids uses your iPhone's microphone with on-device signal processing. It's designed to help you make practical decisions about your child's noise environment.
Think of it like a bathroom scale: useful for day-to-day decisions, even if not laboratory-calibrated. The relative measurements and trend tracking are reliable for understanding whether an environment is getting louder or quieter, and whether you should consider taking action.
Start protecting your child's hearing with simple, practical tools.
