Ear Scale
Wen Huei Liao
A hearing-screening app with an adult/senior mode and an environmental-noise check.
What Ear Scale does
Ear Scale includes a hearing-screening mode for older adults and a check of surrounding noise. Its current store description recommends wired Apple earphones for screening. The adult/senior mode is distinct from the school-screening functions; its results should not be presented as a medical diagnosis.
How it compares
Headphone-based screening, like Hearing Number and Mimi
Ear Scale includes a senior hearing-screening mode as well as school-screening options. Hearing Number and Mimi Hearing Test offer other headphone-based hearing checks; choose the workflow intended for your age and purpose.
Recommended earphones rather than required AirPods Pro
Ear Scale recommends wired Apple earphones and includes an environmental-noise check. Apple Hearing Test has a more specific hardware requirement: AirPods Pro 2 or AirPods Pro 3.
