Analyzing from the microphone will not give you accurate SPL-Loudness values since it is limited to the hardware on which it is being used. If you want to know the exact SPL-Loudness level please use professional hardware made for that use. However, if you want to compare the perceived loudness of two different sounds this meter will do a great job.

The NIOSH Sound Level Meter app can measure workplace noise to determine if workers may experience hazardous noise exposure. The free app combines the best features of professional sound levels meters and noise dosimeters into one simple tool. The app was created to empower people to test noise levels in their workplace, make informed decisions about noise exposure, and prevent occupational hearing loss.

Note: Professional sound level meters must comply with a host of acoustical and electrical tests to meet national and international standards. The NIOSH Sound Level Meter app has met the requirements of IEC 61672:3 (Periodic Testing) sound level meter standard when used with external calibrated microphone.

Occupational standards specify a maximum allowable daily noise dose, expressed in percentages. For example, a person continuously exposed to 85 dBA per NIOSH or 90 dBA per OSHA over an 8-hour work shift, will reach 100% of their daily noise dose. The noise dose is based on both the sound exposure level and how long it lasts (duration). This dose limit uses a 3-dB time-intensity tradeoff commonly referred to as the exchange rate or equal-energy rule: for every 3-dB increase in averaged noise exposure, the allowable exposure time is reduced by half. For example, if the exposure increases to 88 dBA, workers should only be exposed for four hours. Alternatively, for every 3-dB decrease in averaged noise exposure, the allowable exposure time is doubled, as shown in the figure below.

It is important to differentiate between noise level and time-weighted average noise exposure. While noise levels describe the intensity of sounds at a given point in time, the NIOSH exposure limits are set as time-weighted average exposures over periods of time. If noise level measurements consistently exceed 85 dBA, we recommend that you follow up with a professional such as an industrial hygienist or an occupational safety and health specialist to conduct a professional noise survey at your workplace. Remember, protecting your hearing is a good health practice no matter where your ears are!

They use two different weighting filters required by the IEC651 and ANSI S1.4 Type 2 for audio filtering. The A weighting is for general noise sound level and the C weighting is for measuring sound level of acoustic material control in various environments (ie 94 dB 1 kHz etc).

A handy and easy-to-use app to measure the surrounding sound and noise in the decibel unit (dB) inside your browser. The app uses your device microphone to capture media and then processes the streaming audio with AudiContext API in JavaScript.

This web application is designed to measure the surrounding sound and noise with HTML5 tools. The app uses the AudioContext API which is supported in all modern browsers to compute the real-time noise and sound level in the decibel unit (dB). Please wait for this web app to completely load, then accept the microphone permission to allow the app to capture real-time audio. Then wait for the app to initialize the underlying engine. Once the engine is fully loaded, you can see the realtime noise and sound in a colored graph. Within the graph, the left side is for sound level and the right side shows the noise level in the dB unit. The X-axis shows the active time frame for the last 30 seconds. The graph is colored from blue to red zones where blue corresponds to the lowest sound level and red is for the highest sound and noise level. On the top toolbar, you can see min and max values for sound level, plus normalized and average level values. There is also a calibration number on the right side which can be adjusted to calibrate the current sound level. If you decrease this value, the current sound level will be closer to the quit area (blue zone), and if you increase, it will move closer to the danger area (red zone). Please note that reloading the app will reload the AudioContext engine and you will need to wait for the engine to completely loads before seeing the sound level data.

To work with this web application, simply load this page and wait for the app to initializes. Once loading finishes, real-time data will be shown in the above graph. The graph has 4 zones which are colored from blue to red. Moreover, the current sound level is rendered on top of the graph with a large font size. Left to this value is sound level in dB and the right side is the noise level in dB unit. Please note that this app needs microphone permission in your device. Therefore if you deny the permission or if your device does not have a microphone, you won't be able to work with this web application.

Today I downloaded one of these decibel meter apps from the App Store. I am wondering how these apps possibly could give a realistic reading since the phone microphone must have some sort of compression and limiting built in right? And is it even possible to measure a "real" sound level since the input gain on the phone's microphone seems to duck when hit with a loud sound?

If you get the netatmo weather station for $180 ($150 at Amazon) it has a nice sound monitoring sensor which you can set for a very specific level. It comes with two units, the indoor unit (which has the sound monitor) and the outdoor unit for things like rainfall.

The Larson Davis SoundExpert LxT Sound Level Meter is a full-featured meter designed for general product evaluation and noise monitoring applications.

I'm trying to implement a sound meter in dB in android but I haven't found the way to start yet. I have gone over androids API and haven't found anything that I think is suitable. Can anyone help me please?

This isn't possible in general because of the confusion between the different meanings of 'dB' and the fact that you can't measure physical Sound Pressure Level (which is generally what people mean when they talk about 'sound meters') without calibrated devices. See my previous answers to similar questions:

Also included is the Soundlab software for Windows Based computers. With this software you can connect the device to your PC and record (or download recorded data) and graph sound readings in real time via USB connection. This sound meter also has internal memory that can record and store 4700 data points which can be imported into the included software for review.

The Cirrus noise monitoring equipment includes ranges of sound level meters, noise dosimeters and noise monitoring systems. These are all professional grade products meeting the acoustic standards to either Type 1 or Type 2. All the Cirrus Research meters come with a 2 year warranty, extending up to 15 years provided that you have the equipment calibrated every 12 months.

I was very happy with my line 6 wireless system when I bought it from guitar center in 2013. After the first month of owning it, it had audio problems. I sent it back and it was promptly fixed. The transmitter has always had little ticks (signal and audio dropouts,self muting etc.) A couple of months ago the transmitter stopped working. The receiver shows full battery level and rf signal, but no audio meter on the receiver. If you mute the transmitter, it will indicate with a red flashing light on the audio meter (which is normal functionality) I removed the capsule and tested the contacts. I got sound from the contacts which gave me the idea that the capsule was malfunctioning. I purchased a new capsule and updated the firmware on both the transmitter and receiver.There is still NO AUDIO and NO AUDIO METER on the receiver. I created a support ticket and promptly sent the capsule back. I got a confirmation email for my support ticket and NO response. Upon following the link on the confirmation email today it appears my ticket has been deleted. I'm beyond at my wits end with line 6 at this point. I would love to have a wireless for my tour. If I do not get help here, I will switch back to Sennheiser,

Some of the more common sources the meter can detect: cell towers, cell phone emissions, cordless home phones, wireless routers (both 2.4 and 5 GHz), Bluetooth devices, smart meter emissions, baby monitors, airport radar, and, microwave oven leakage detection.
