- Title
The Hearing Test App for Android Devices: Distinctive Features of Pure-Tone Audiometry Performed on Mobile Devices [Letter].
- Authors

- Abstract
This article discusses the use of mobile devices for home hearing tests, specifically focusing on the Hearing Test app for Android devices. The app, developed by M. Masalski, offers a practical solution for early identification of hearing loss, particularly in resource-constrained environments. However, the article also acknowledges some limitations and weaknesses of mobile audiometry, such as the reliability of calibration coefficients and the impact of testing environment on results. The paper recommends further research and development in advanced calibration techniques, algorithms to compensate for environmental noise, and improved user education to ensure the accuracy and reliability of mobile audiometry.
