Pros and cons of Digital Sound Meter FREE app for iPhone and iPad

Digital Sound Meter FREE app good for

I advise it if one wants an attractive immidiate sond meater. It seems to work and seems to give similar results to dbMeter so I am confused with the people who have been having problems. Pros: Works, GREAT display Cons: No Graphing, No eMail, I would have liked a SPEC page discribing the Average and Peak weighting factors.
For casual use on the 4s, not bad. This app is always 10-15dB high when compared to my studio sound meter (€450). No control of weighting or time constant, but -- its a free app.

Some bad moments

Just tried this in a silent room....40dB!? Not obvious how you save results, no choice of meter styles etc? Nice idea but needs more work
If you whisper near your phone it will register 100 db. Total garbage.
Completely inaccurate. My silent room is 95db! Call me when its recalibrated.
I tastes-tested only the free version and I can say is poor quality measurement and basically useless. Just spare your time...
It doesnt work with the head set which is the same thing asbthe iPhone 3gs headphones!!!!!!
The app claims that theres 50 db of ambient noise in a quiet room. And, that tapping on the table is another +40db.
