How the check works

Each button plays a 1.5-second pure sine tone at a fixed, moderate volume with smooth fade in and out to avoid clicks. You simply report whether you heard it. Six spot frequencies cover the speech range (500 to 4000 Hz) plus low and high extremes.

Reading your result

Missing only 8000 Hz is common with age as high-frequency hearing fades first. Missing speech-range tones (1000 to 4000 Hz) matters more for daily life and is worth a professional test. Volume is fixed so results stay comparable.

Hearing Test FAQs

Is this a real medical hearing test?
No. It is a rough self-check with uncalibrated volume. A clinical audiometry test uses calibrated equipment in a soundproof booth.
Why use headphones?
Headphones block room noise and deliver consistent volume to each ear. Phone speakers vary wildly and leak sound.
I cannot hear 8000 Hz. Is something wrong?
Probably not. High-frequency sensitivity declines naturally from the twenties onward. Only worry if speech-range tones are also missed.
Should I test each ear separately?
You can: cover one ear or unplug one earbud and repeat. Differences between ears are worth mentioning to a doctor.
Does this store my results?
No. Answers live only in the page memory and vanish when you close the tab.
