  • Easy to use hearing test

    Thanks to mouths of mums for giving me and my four year old daughter the opportunity to trial this new hearing test app Sound Scouts.
    Unfortunately my daughter didn’t want to wear headphones, which are required to accurately test your hearing and determine any differences between ears. My daughter doesn’t usually use headphones so she was nervous about putting them on her head.
    She quite happily did the trial games and test without wearing headphones and found them quite enjoyable and easy to do.
    However we couldn’t get any further than that.
    I therefore ended up doing the hearing test on myself. And I apparently have hearing within a normal range for my age.
    I would say that this is a very easy and convenient way to test your child’s hearing from the comfort of your own home and can give you instant results It gives you peace of mind if you have any concerns about your child’s hearing ability.

  • When the Huh? Is a problem!

    Mr 5 has recently started stating he can’t hear, and responding huh and pardon to almost everything. Unsure if this was a genuine hearing concern, or just a busy boy not fully paying attention to his mum, this review came at a perfect time! With the sound scouts app fun and engaging, it was extremely easy for him to understand the tasks and the instant result (with a failed test!) meaning we could proceed to investigate the hearing concerns further. So grateful to this app for helping us realize our little guy might need some further support.

  • Innovative App

    Love the whole concept of this app. An easy and safe way to first assess any hearing issues with yourself or your child before visiting the professionals.
    Sound Scouts have designed the test component of the app really well. It was easy for my 4 year old to understand and he enjoyed the activities.
    Only took around 15mins to complete and then I had his results. Good to know his hearing is fine and that he is just choosing to ignore me ????
    Thoroughly recommend this app to anyone who may have hearing concerns for the little ones

  • A very innovative, resourceful tool

    Sounds scouts is an app, that provides you with the first tools to test hearing, which can be done in the comfort of your home.
    Whether there are concerns, wanting your little one to understand what a hearing test is or testing for peace of mind. To me Sound Scouts is a great, thoughtful stepping stone.
    From as soon as I opened the app, it gives you thorough information as the parent/ carer to understand what the process is and what is required.
    Siging up is an easy process and takes less than five minutes, if you’re not tech savvy I would put aside 10 minutes for set up.
    I love that it was an interactive way for my daughters hearing to he tested with interesting games, the hot air balloon one she couldn’t wait to start.
    I live that it had some personal touches that she could choose it it helped provide a sense of belonging. And the fact that I could instantly get the results, is very appreciated. By seeing it on the screen where she fits and also having it emailed to me.
    This is an app, I would gladly use again!

    I really enjoyed this inspiring app as I feel it is a stepping stone

  • So easy and really helpful

    What a fantastic app and idea! I used Sound Scout on my 12 year old daughter and it was easy to set up and use (as her supervisor). She really enjoyed doing the games and it only took about 15 mins to complete the test. I received an email with the results and information promptly after completing and actually found out I have some hearing issues as well, so I’m off to get my hearing tested. This would never have happened if I hadn’t used Sound Scout.

    What a great way to test children’s hearing being in a familiar setting whilst playing a fun game. My son asked if he could play it again! Instructions were simple and easy to follow. Will be recommending this app to family and friends!

    The Sound Scouts Hearing Test App is an innovative, user-friendly mobile app designed to help assess the hearing health of children and adults in the comfort of their own homes.

  • Fun and Informative Hearing Test

    I was so glad I had a chance to try Sound Scouts! It’s a fantastic app that made testing my daughter’s hearing a fun and engaging experience. The app is easy to use and understand, even for a young child. The interactive games and challenges kept her interested throughout the test. I wish I had known about it when she was younger. If you’re concerned about your child’s hearing, I highly recommend giving Sound Scouts a try. It’s a great way to get a quick assessment and peace of mind.

  • Hearing test

    This app was easy to download and then create a profile to start using it.
    The images were fun and bright for my little one.
    I think it is good to be able to have that peace of mind of something that is available to a parent at home which allows one to do a test such as this one.

  • Excellent app

    Sound Scouts is a super kids friendly app that checks for hearing problems by turning the test into a fun game. It’s easy to use, affordable, and only takes about 15 minutes to get results. You just need a quiet place for it to work properly. You properly still see a specialist if something seems not right but this app is just perfect for a quick screening.

  • Not great

    Thus wasn’t a great app. It didn’t work well for us, I had high quality gaming headphones and we couldn’t hear it. And couldn’t get past the adult test page. My child also lost interest due to this.

  • Fun but not sure how reliable

    My 5 year old enjoyed the sound scouts app. We didn’t get results to the helicopter test as he was getting a bit excited and tapping the button before there were any sounds. It was neat to see the results but I feel like only one test isn’t a great indicator of their hearing. The novelty effect is still there and easy to alter results. I would love to try this on my younger son once he is old enough.

  • Great app for in-home hearing testing

    We were lucky enough to be offered a hearing test using the Sound Scouts app for our four year old son. The app is easy to find, download and install. Setup is relatively quick and easy. My son hasn’t spent much time on the tablet and was eager to try the “games”. He did struggle a fair bit with the first test so we will investigate these results further. We did find the rounds fairly long, especially round 1 and it took a few goes on two different days for him to get through. I suspect part of this was also his lack of experience on the tablet. The second and third rounds were more engaging and he passed both easily the first time. Overall a good experience and would recommend.

  • Easy to use kids' hearing test app!

    I really enjoyed trialling this Sound Scouts Hearing Test app with my son! The app was easy to find on the Google Play Store, and to download to our Samsung tablet. Set up was fairly easy and straightforward, but I recommend an adult complete that section, as there are a few questions to go through. The test itself was quick and easy and I loved that I received instant results, which were then emailed to me for my records. My son found the actual hearing test easy to complete, but he thought that the graphics could have been more realistic, and he would have preferred an actual human voice for the commands rather than an AI voice. However, overall, we would both recommend this hearing app for kids as it’s easy to use and is a great way to detect any issues with your child’s hearing!

    My daughter was keen to get started. It was an easy to use app. I had never previously thought to check my daughter’s hearing so this was a convenient app to have and use. The report was comprehensive and it gives you an opportunity to follow up if needed. Would highly recommend the app.

    Interactive and engaging way to check child’s hearing. My step son completed this task and I was surprised that he was actually quite interested in doing so! It was easy to use and we made a fun little game out of it. I think this is a great way to ensure your child’s hearing is 100% and its ease of use makes such a difference! I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to test their child’s hearing.

  • Easy and engaging way to test hearing at home

    My daughter found this app simple and engaging to use. Whilst doing the supervisor test I was shocked to discover that my hearing may be impaired. At first I thought it was my headphones as I repeated the tests numerous times and scored very low. My husband however completed the test first go with the same headphones! While my daughter’s test was normal, I am booking myself in for a comprehensive hearing examination! Thanks to Scouts for detecting a possible problem.

  • Delish recipe! I made something with similar flavours tonight, Arayas in Lebanese bread. And I had my trusty Ansell gloves, allspice and lamb is lovely but not when the smell is stuck on your hands! I’ll have to give this a go, it’s definitely something I’d love and sounds like a perfect family meal
