Samsung Health has added a new feature to help protect your hearing in the latest update. This new feature is called the “Noise” card, and it will appear on the home screen of the Samsung Health app.

Spotted by Assemble Debug in version 6.31.2.003 of the Samsung Health app, the Noise card will track the level of noise you’ve been exposed to throughout the day. It helps you see if you’ve been in loud environments that could harm your hearing over time.

Whether it’s the noise from traffic, music, or crowded places, the app will give you a quick look at how loud the noise is you’ve encountered. For more control, Samsung Health is also adding an Advanced Measurement mode who want more control.

The Advanced Measurement mode feature will allow you to set specific noise limits. If the noise level goes above your preferred limit, the app will send you a warning. This can apply to both background noise and sounds from apps.

Samsung Health is also bringing a new history screen that will show you how often you get noise alerts. You’ll be able to view your noise exposure on a weekly, monthly, or yearly basis to keep track of when you’re most exposed to loud sounds.
