The iHEARu mobile app uses crowd-sourcing to help you find locations with noise levels that suit your needs. If you’re looking for a quiet eatery, bar or cafe the iHEARu GPS will help you find it. If you’re looking for public or commercial spaces that offer assistive listening options, our mobile app can locate those too.
This just in from iHEARu:
Calling all Hearo’s
Our San Francisco campaign is in FULL SWING! Go out and take readings during San Francisco Restaurant Week, January 22nd – 31st, to be eligible for cash prizes, physical prizes, and social media shout-outs!
We will be making contributions to the Hearing Loss Association of America (HLAA) AND to Chefsgiving proportional to the number of recordings taken during the week, no matter where the recording is taken. That means that taking a recording in Seattle or Boston can help towards San Francisco’s recording goal!
Not only can you win prizes and help donate money by taking recordings this week, but the data collected from this endeavor help a greater noise mapping project that benefits countless others.
Still need help taking a recording or want to learn more? Have no fear! Check out www.ihearu.co and www.ihearuapp.com for captioned video links explaining how to take a recording in real time.
We’re sending a rallying cry to local HLAA chapters, audiology students, and citizen scientists like yourself to get involved.
Join them and check us out on our social media platforms to stay up to date on our movement.
