Hearing Frequency Test
Choose a quick estimate or a more detailed standard test. Each step plays one quiet sample and asks whether you heard it.
Guided hearing test
Step 1 of 4 · Get ready
The sound could not play
Check your output device and try again.
First, get ready
Choose your setup and test length. Quick mode is selected by default, so you can continue without changing anything else.
- Choose your deviceHeadphones work best.
- Check one quiet toneSet a comfortable level once.
- Answer yes or noLeft ear first, then right.
You’ll confirm a low device volume in the safety message before sound plays. Turn off EQ or spatial audio if practical.
Test length Quick is recommended
Choose your device and confirm that the room is quiet.
Play one sound and check the volume
The reference should be quiet but easy to hear. Set the level here once, then keep the same volume for the whole test.
What should it sound like?
Quiet and comfortable—not loud. If needed, lower your device volume and play it again.
Play the reference tone to unlock the test.
Browser range check pending
The reference tone will check the audio sample rate and available test ceiling.
Optional: verify left and right channels
Use this if you are unsure whether your headphones are routed correctly.

This is not a clinical audiogram
This tool estimates the highest sine-wave frequency you report hearing through your current browser and playback setup. It cannot measure clinical hearing thresholds in dB HL, and it does not replace an evaluation by a qualified hearing professional.
Never turn the volume up to chase a high frequency. If a tone is no longer audible at the level used for the 1 kHz reference, record that response and move on.
Why test each ear separately?
Separate left and right trials can reveal a result that is worth repeating, but a difference can also come from earbud fit, driver matching, channel routing or room position. A large repeatable difference—especially with other symptoms—is a reason to seek professional advice, not a diagnosis from this page.
What the reliability score means
The score summarizes test conditions and internal consistency: device type, quiet-environment confirmation, channel verification, silent control responses, replay count and left/right agreement. It does not convert an informal browser test into a calibrated medical test.
