Nuisance Noise Recorder: Automate Noise Recording Beyond Limits
Nuisance Noise Recorder is a straightforward Android app that automatically records noise surpassing a predefined limit. It serves as a valuable tool for verifying or refuting nuisance noise incidents. Notably, it distinguishes itself by focusing on noise recording rather than voice dictation or covert surveillance.
Upon launching Nuisance Noise Recorder, users can monitor decibel levels and set a threshold slightly below the target noise level. Additionally, users can specify environmental factors like wall types, flooring material, windows, and distances to the source of noise. The app captures 30-second snippets whenever noise levels exceed the established limit, allowing users to review timestamped recordings daily.
A standout feature of Nuisance Noise Recorder is its ability to compress daily recordings and event logs into a zip folder, including a CSV file. This facilitates easy transfer to a PC or cloud storage services like Dropbox or Google Drive. However, note that the Export functionality necessitates an in-app purchase for creating zip archives, emphasizing the importance of confirming recordings before committing to the purchase. The recorded sound files are in WAV format, compatible with Windows and Android devices, while the event log CSV file is accessible via standard text editors or MS Excel.
