I am making a app to correct my dog when shes barking at night by having my phone on her bench at night. I want it to go off when a certain decibel level is reached, i set it to infinitly record 5 second snippets & review them to see if she barked but i cant find a way to get the peak decibel from the snippet so i can make it go off with a vibration & tone when she barks. Thanks! 😃

I was thinking there might be a way to do this with IFTTT but I don’t see anything for mobile phones. And the Cloudinary API has a way to increase or decrease the decibel level of a sound recording but not a way to measure it. So I’m stumped!

These look promising:
> **[An API to Measure Loudness, from Standards to Streaming](https://dolby.io/blog/an-api-to-measure-loudness-from-standards-to-streaming/)**
>
> Use the Analyze API to measure loudness and add a validation feature to your applications for testing if media is within range of a broadcasting recommendation or streaming platform.

MDN now has a way to measure sound level.
[AnalyserNode.maxDecibels - Web APIs | MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AnalyserNode/maxDecibels) this is the function.
Check this demo

Measure Loudness yes, i am pretty handy with Thunkables components & variables but i dont know how to do anything outside of the Thunkable "Blocks’’. Could you explain how id set this up and use it in Thunkable? 😃

You will need to use `Web Viewer Extensions` for this.
See the example here
