How it works
in five steps

log the loud moments. the rest happens on its own.

TinnitusMe asks one thing of you: log a spike when it gets louder. Sleep, noise, weather, food and your wearable's numbers are collected on their own, and the app compares your loud days with your quiet ones. Here is what that looks like, and the three ways to start.

Five steps

the same five the app shows you on first launch
1
Log itWhen it gets louder, or when you notice it, log a spike. Then forget about the app
2
CollectedSleep, noise and weather come in on their own, in the background. Food does too if a nutrition app shares it
3
ComparedYour loud days, next to your quiet ones
4
Nothing to rememberNo check-ins and no reminders, ever
5
Bring it alongA report of what was found, for your audiologist
Patterns need at least three logged spikes before there is anything honest to say. Until then the app stays quiet.

Questions

Do I have to connect anything?

No. Log a spike when it gets louder; that is the only thing you have to do. Location, microphone, a wearable and Apple Health or Health Connect are each optional and each explained before you grant them. Without a wearable you still get weather and noise.

How long until the app is useful?

The sounds work from the first minute. Patterns need at least three logged spikes before the app can compare anything, and they firm up as more days come in.

Will it ask me anything after setup?

No. There is no daily check-in and no reminder of any kind. The setup questions are one-time facts, and you can change them from Profile.
