Measure reverberation time — simple, fast, precise.
With AcousticCheck the reverberation time of a room is measured easily, quickly and with high accuracy — even by people without an acoustics background.
What you get.
Six things that matter, done well, in a single iPhone app.
T20 and T30 reverberation
Reverberation time measured by Schroeder backward integration. Both T20 and T30 reported with R² fit quality per band.
Sweep + impulse methods
Choose a sine-sweep with a Bluetooth speaker for tougher acoustic environments, or a clap-style impulse for fast, casual checks.
Octave bands, third-octave in CSV
Reverberation time is displayed per octave band from 125 Hz to 4 kHz. The CSV export carries finer third-octave detail from 100 Hz to 5 kHz for your own analysis.
PDF + CSV export
A clean PDF for the project file, and a CSV with every band, every fit parameter, and the raw decay curve for further analysis.
Internal mic supported
The internal iPhone microphone is calibrated for the supported devices. Tap to measure — no external gear required for most rooms.
Project history
Group measurements by project and room. Compare two measurements side-by-side, before and after treatment.

Measurements your clients can read.
Sweep and impulse methods, octave-band results in the app, and a CSV export that carries the third-octave detail into your own analysis.
Bring numbers to the acoustics conversation.
Measure the room as built, attach photos and room data, and send a result your client and your acoustician can both read.
A spec sheet that survives the install.
Measure the empty room, the rigged room, and the room on the day. Save each run with its photos and room data so the file matches the space.
The honest answers.
On a calibrated iPhone, T20 and T30 are typically within ±5% of a Class-2 instrument in rooms with reverberation times between 0.3 and 3 seconds. The Schroeder method is robust to ambient noise above roughly 35 dB SPL background. Each measurement reports the R² of the decay fit per band so you can see when conditions weren’t cooperating.
For laboratory-grade certification work, you still want a Class-1 instrument. For day-to-day acoustic measurement in studios, classrooms, offices, and small venues — AcousticCheck is good enough that we use it for our own consulting.
Almost none. The default workflow — place phone, tap to record, get a number — works for anyone. The more you know about acoustics, the more value you’ll get from the octave-band breakdown and the CSV detail, but the headline numbers are read-out, not interpretation.
Pros: it’s with you always. It’s ten times faster than rigging a real meter for a quick check. The PDF goes straight to the client.
Cons: it’s an iPhone. In a 4,000-seat hall with a 3-second tail and lots of ambient HVAC, you’ll want better gear. The internal mic is calibrated, but it’s still an internal mic.
Yes, currently iOS only. Android is harder because the hardware variance is much wider — we’d rather not ship a measurement tool we can’t calibrate. It’s on the long-term roadmap.
No. For most rooms the internal iPhone mic is enough. For very large or very dead rooms, or when measuring at sub-100-Hz, an external mic — connected by Lightning/USB-C adapter or Bluetooth — gives you a cleaner signal. Plus supports common XLR interfaces.
Anything from a 2-square-meter vocal booth to a 5,000-seat concert hall, within the limits above. Outdoor measurement isn’t supported (no enclosed sound field).
