Free Hearing Test with an Apple App
Posted by jdbsound on February 21, 2013
Get your hearing tested for free. If you have an iPad, iPod or iPhone, you can test your hearing with a free App. It is good enough to confirm whether if you have a hearing problem and whether you should be getting professional help.
The software is from Unitron and they make hearing aids. So while some people think that this is just a sales marketing tool, and it very well may be, but it matches a hearing test of mine done in a proper lab hours apart. That is good enough to decide who should be behind a mixer and making adjustments during worship.
What I have also done is use this test for people who persistently ask me to turn things up – even when they have sat in different places. When everything is working properly and I know the sound system is passing the STI speech intelligibility test, I will ask the person to take the test. Be gentle and kind when asking people to take the test. When people discover that they need help, setting them off in getting their hearing back often gives them back their life too. The App is called “U-Hear”
