Awareness!™ will interrupt your music for sudden loud noises like cars, screams or announcements. A must-have for joggers, cyclists and travellers.
NOTES: You need an iPhone type headset with an inline microphone for optimum results
NOTES: Cannot work with Wireless or Bluetooth headsets
★ Awareness!® could save your life, stop you missing a flight, or just let you listen & talk
★ If you walk, run, jog or cycle with headphones, you need Awareness!
★ Listen to music AND the outside world
★ DOWNLOAD NOW
Awareness!® listens to the outside world using the inline mic in your headset. If a sound exceeds background noise, Awareness feeds the sound into your headphones and you hear it!
★ Joggers & cyclists - hear that truck before it flattens you
★ Travelers - watch a movie without missing your announcements
★ Workers - listen to music but hear the phone ringing
★ Multitaskers – talk to friends AND listen to music at the same time!

"One of The Best Sound Aware Apps" SUNDAY TIMES
"The app automatically set a level to allow us to hear the loud noises around us, including when someone asked us to borrow a chair from our table. At home it blissfully kept neighborhood sounds from interrupting our music listening but piped through dog barks warning us of a visitor." - APPSHOPPER

It helps hear what's around you even when you leave the app

Very cool app- I show it off as one of my "wow" apps to friends. Don't have to rock the one earbud thing- u can use two and still hear your wife yell at you to mow the lawn! It's a win-win situation!
Nice app.
It works. And thanks to the developer who made this app.
