How to check a rumor at home
Health / / December 19, 2019
Given the constant noise around and loud music in the headphones, it is not surprising that the hearing may be impaired. We collected a few apps for iOS and Android, developed by professional medical institutions. With their help, you can check your hearing and see if it is within normal limits.
Applications, which we describe below, will help you understand how your hearing is correct. If the results are far from optimal, it makes sense to consult a doctor.
uHear
uHear determines the sensitivity of the hearing, as well as how well you adapt to the ambient noise. The first test takes about five minutes, the second - less than a minute. For each test need headphones, and in the application, you can choose their form - liners or overhead.
The test determines the sensitivity of each ear separately. This is achieved by reproducing the noise of different frequencies and determining upper and lower boundaries of your ear.

Hörtest
Hörtest for Android works on the same principle. You need to press a button every time you hear the sound through the headphones. I will say the obvious thing, but do not be fooled and do not press the button only to have that to improve test results. You pass it to yourself.

Mimi Hearing Test
Mimi Hearing Technologies - a company that has been manufacturing equipment for the deaf. If you have an iOS-device, I would recommend to pass this test. The application works on a similar principle to the previous. Every time you hear the sound of the left or the right ear, you press on the Left or Right button, respectively. The test result - this is your age on the basis of hearing sensitivity. If it matches your real age - excellent. If the difference is very large, your hearing is not normal.

bonus
If you do not have devices on iOS and Android, you can use this Videotest on YouTube. As in all previous applications, and headphones are compulsory.
Tell on what mark you have ceased to hear sounds and how old you are.
