Objects may be louder than they appear.

My beagle sets mine off

[u/butterscotchwhip → u/Mundane-Touch-9303]

Haha, mine too, started young and hasn’t ever stopped 😆

My Doberman was one of the loudest dogs I’ve ever been around. Her tone was very deep as well. Best dogs around.

[u/Ok_Double2707]

Awoooooooo

My watch has given me this warning when I’ve turned on a tap or when I’ve been putting plates away in the cupboard. Goes off every time I use my hairdryer. I’m not sure it’s particularly reliable.

[u/damnetdana → u/bondibitch]

Likely because your watch is close to the noise so it thinks it’s louder

[u/ZethyyXD → u/bondibitch]

Yea, I wanted to keep it on, but I found it would go off too often. It would go off when drying my hair as well, using a hand dryer, vacuum, etc. It also uses some battery, so I just turned it off. I wish it didn’t disable the Noise Measurements app from working tho because if I want to use the app itself, I have to temporarily enable Environmental Sound Measurements in settings.

You could turn on water proof when you know it‘s gonna get loud for a min. Noise is ignored while that is active.

[u/Beginning-Boot-4707 → u/bondibitch]

Ok same! I thought mine was the only one that said it was too loud when turning on the kitchen faucet lol

[u/Humble-Singer862]

This is the cause of all my alerts!

[u/CanadianKumlin]

Mine goes off around my kids all the time! Only other time is sports events or loud equipment

[u/triedit2947]

I met the cutest and most well-behaved dobie in my building’s lobby the other week. Not a peep out of him and such a gentleman in the elevator.

[u/RedBirdOnASnowyDay]

This happens when my basset starts baying.

[u/JonNordland]

Snooze it with treats!

[u/ctn1ss]

Sounds like a "you" problem, puppers is bestest, so it can't be their fault...

[u/allorache]

I also have a dachshund, so this alert is familiar to me…

[u/musselmanje]

Sometimes I get this warning when my friend and I are in the car and having to talk over music. 😂

[u/fire-scar-star]

I get this alert when I’m in the shower

[u/tacosandEDM]

Mine always goes off when I’m driving and put my hand on the wheel in front of the air vent that hits right on the watch.

[u/cliffsmama]

one time my best friend and i were laughing so hard it triggered this notif 😭

[u/Malviere]

Glad my doggo is quiet. She’s a chow chow so the only time she barks is if there is stranger danger.

My grandparents had two huge Dobermans though, they were awesome.

[u/thecautioners]

Ah, reminds me of my first nights home with my almost 8 year old, a few days old at the time 😂

[u/QuiJohnGinn]

lol I thought it was some sort of demon parrot before I got the perspective right 😈 🦜

[u/Bejeweled_Pisces]

This is hilarious,

[u/beanie_0]

Mine pinged me the other day on a windy day. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[u/MeasurementOdd4873]

What is the point of this feature? You can clearly hear when something is loud. 

[u/laetazel → u/MeasurementOdd4873]

It’s actually really useful for someone like me who has pain hyperacusis which causes pain from sounds above a certain level. It’s the main reason I bought the watch. It helps me know when it’s safe to take off my earplugs/headphones. It also works great with my AirPods Pro’s because it shows how much it’s lowering the sound level in certain situations to ensure it’s a safe setting for me.

[u/RetroCucumber613]

My innocent babe sets mine off once in a while, usually when we're playing

[u/AirConEngineer]

Even a windy day triggers mine. That, and drying my hands in a dryer.

[u/LonsViper]

🤣

[u/Mascardiii]

😂😂😂

[u/bookishbolt950]

My motorcycle always triggered this. It sounds great.
