Latest reviews of bequiet™ app for iPhone and iPad
Nice idea, tie it to a series of alarms and raise the volume way up. Not effective
I installed this on an old iPhone and leave it out in the morning to keep the kids quiet while my wife is still sleeping. I also turn down the sensitivity and use it to keep the kids down to a dull roar for the rest of the day. Works pretty well for me. A few things I dont like or would like to see: 1. The high sensitivity settings are a little too sensitive. 2. There is about a 2 second lag between the time it detects that its too loud and when it plays the "shhh". 3. I would REALLY like to see a "scoring system" to make it kind of like a game, like Quiet Mouse. A breakdown of how often the "shh" is played would help with punishment or reward for the kids being loud or quiet. 4. There is no option to change the sound being played. Theres just a "shh". 5. A more easily accessible, volume slider would be nice. 6. The low sensitivity "shh" is too quiet. 7. Would like to have "profiles" for each desired volume level (i.e. Short, quiet "shh" when set to calm) 8. Would like to be able to run this app with the screen off to save battery.
