Make the sound around you louder and clearer in your headphones, on your phone.
Sound Amplifier uses your phone's microphone to pick up the sound around you, makes it louder and clearer, and plays it straight into your headphones. Follow a conversation in a noisy café, hear the TV without turning it up for everyone, or catch every word of a lecture you are attending.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Connect wired, USB or Bluetooth headphones
2. Tap Start listening and allow microphone access
3. Pick a sound mode, then raise the boost until voices are comfortable
4. Lock the screen if you like: listening goes on until you tap Stop

PRIVACY
Sound is processed on your phone in real time. It is never uploaded. Instant replay keeps the last 30 seconds in memory only, and nothing is saved until you tap Save. Analytics and crash reports never receive audio and can be turned off in Settings.
PERMISSIONS
• Microphone: asked when you tap Start
• Notifications (optional): shows a Stop button while listening
SAFETY
Sound Amplifier is not a medical device and does not replace professional care. Start with your phone volume low and raise it slowly: loud sound over time can damage your ears. Take breaks. Do not use it to listen to or record other people without their knowledge.
No account. No sign-up. No ads while you listen.
