Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about turning recurring noise into a clearer record with SilentProof.
Does SilentProof work offline? +
Yes. SilentProof keeps your incident records on-device, including reference sound levels, location context, and timestamps. You do not need an internet connection to capture incidents or review your evidence history.
What kind of record can I export? +
Free users can export up to 3 PDF records, and Pro removes that cap. Each PDF record includes reference sound levels, timestamps, location details, and any context you added for landlords, property managers, or city agencies like 311.
Can I use the report in a landlord or 311 complaint? +
SilentProof is a documentation tool and does not provide legal advice. Consult a qualified professional for legal guidance in your jurisdiction. The report includes structured documentation (reference sound levels, timestamps, and location details) that can support your complaint. Always check your local recording laws before capturing audio.
How accurate are the decibel readings? +
SilentProof uses your iPhone microphone to measure sound levels. Those readings are best used as supporting evidence and pattern tracking, not as certified sound level meter measurements.
Is my data private? +
Your recordings, notes, and record data stay on your device unless you choose to export them. We never sell your data or share it with third parties. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
Can I create a PDF without keeping audio? +
Yes. SilentProof can document reference sound levels, timestamps, location, and incident context even when you choose not to keep an audio recording.
Do I need a subscription? +
No. Free includes unlimited incident recording and 3 PDF exports. Pro is a one-time $9.99 upgrade for unlimited PDF export. It is designed so you can start documenting incidents first, then upgrade only if the issue becomes ongoing.
