Embrace tranquility: join SoundPrint's Find Your Quiet Place Challenge 2023

HeardThat is proudly partnering with Soundprint again this year for its third annual Find Your Quiet Place Challenge 2023 (FYQP). Whether you're a city dweller surrounded by the constant hum of urban life or someone seeking solace in a noisy world, the FYQP Challenge offers a unique opportunity to identify quiet (and noisy) places.

What is the FYQP Challenge?

SoundPrint, an app dedicated to helping people discover and share quiet spaces using its decibel meter, has launched the Find Your Quiet Place Challenge 2023. This challenge encourages participants to explore their surroundings, identify quiet locations, and submit noise complaints for loud environments. At the end of the month, the SoundPrint team analyzes findings and reports trends and statistics based on user input.
Last year’s event reported a 76.5 dBA average sound level at restaurants. While considered loud but safe for hearing, that level does make it difficult for conversations.

Why join this year?

Community engagement—Each contribution is important and enables SoundPrint to advocate for safe noise levels, help communities find quieter places, and protect the public’s hearing health.

Health and well-being—Numerous studies highlight the detrimental effects of constant exposure to noise on mental and physical health. Joining the challenge is a step towards prioritizing your well-being and that of others.

Data-Driven Insights: challenge participants gain access to detailed insights into noise levels, empowering them to make informed decisions about where to find quiet.

Still have trouble hearing conversations?

Because everyone’s hearing health journey is different, the decibel threshold in which one can easily hear conversations varies. If you or a loved one finds it challenging to converse in any kind of noisy environment, give HeardThat a try. We’re available on the App Store and Google Play.
