## Description

**Hear Boost** is a sound amplifier and live listening app that enhances your device microphone to help you hear and record distant sounds. Amplify audio up to 200x, choose an internal or external microphone, fine-tune frequencies with the equalizer, and use voice filters for clearer listening.

Designed for journalists, students, parents, and curious listeners, Hear Boost supports unlimited recordings until you stop or run out of storage. It can work in the background with the display off and supports Bluetooth headphones. Additional features include audio transcription and immersive Spaces environments. Headphones are recommended to help prevent feedback.
