Description

Bioacoustics application that gives current temperature readouts by listening to crickets! This app uses the iPhone's built-in microphone to detect the chirping of Tree Crickets, and computes a temperature value based on the rate of chirping. The readout is usually accurate to within a degree or two.

Note: CricketSong listens for snowy tree crickets, which have a very rhythmic chirping, and filters out other crickets, like field crickets, which are more sporadic when they chirp.

Works best within 20 feet of a tree cricket.

Happy Chirping!

What's New in Version 1.2

- Information page about snowy tree crickets
- Audio samples to help you recognize tree crickets.
- Display temp in Fahrenheit or Celsius
- User interface improvements.

Customer Reviews

Great app (5 stars)
Very neat! Very accurate!

Cool but needs more features (1 star)
Needs ability to compare cricket temp to GPS located Internet weather temp.

Needs ability to also show average temp from collected readings that are of a high enough quality.

Needs ability to keep a log of temperatures gathered and their GPS location/altitude/date/time and show all on a map.
