Find some peace and quiet
Welcome to Advisorator’s Tip of the Week, helping you learn something new from the tech world every Tuesday.
Whenever you’re looking for a quiet place to hang out, keep Soundprint in mind. The free app for iOS and Android bills itself as a “Yelp for noise,” letting you look up the average decibel level of nearby bars and restaurants based on measurements from users. You can also contribute your own reviews by using the in-app SoundCheck tool.
Because Soundprint depends on a critical mass of user-submitted reviews, it’s not going to be of much use outside of major metropolitan areas. Still, I was pleasantly surprised to see lots of data out here in the Cincinnati suburbs, and of course the app will also be useful any time you’re visiting a major city and want to hear yourself think.
