Screen time for your ears

HearTime tracks how long and how loud you listen, so you can protect your hearing for the long run.

Loud and long, at a glance

We estimate your daily sound dose from volume and time — the same idea audiologists use.

Gentle nudges, never nagging

Set a daily sound budget and get a calm heads-up as you approach it. Snooze is always one tap away.

Everything you need, nothing you don't

A calm set of tools for understanding — and gently managing — how your ears are doing.

Sound budget

Set a daily listening allotment, overall or per app, with a warning threshold and snooze.

Per-app tracking (Android)

A background service attributes audio to the app playing it and keeps counting even when HearTime is closed.

Lock or notify (Android)

When an app hits its limit, get a notification — or a full-screen "give your ears a break" pause.

Real exposure data (iOS)

Reads Apple's measured headphone audio levels from HealthKit and nudges you with notifications.

Sound dose

A NIOSH-style daily dose model turns duration and loudness into one clear "percent of safe daily sound" number.

Trends & Learn

Daily, weekly, and monthly listening trends, average dB vs. the 85 dB safe line, plus source-verified hearing-health facts and tips.

Why it matters

Hearing damage from everyday listening is common, preventable, and easy to miss until it's permanent.

Android gets full per-app tracking and the ability to pause a loud app. iOS doesn't let any app see what's playing elsewhere or block another app, so on iOS HearTime reads Apple's own measured headphone-exposure data from Health and nudges you instead. We'd rather tell you the real capabilities than pretend otherwise.
