The Clap Phone Finder app is a handy tool that helps users locate their misplaced or lost smartphones. When you activate the app and then clap your hands, the microphone picks up the sound and analyzes it to determine if it matches the predefined sound pattern of a clap. If a clap is detected, the app triggers an alarm or vibration on your phone, making it easier for you to locate it.
The app continuously monitors the microphone input in the background, even when the device is locked or the app is running in the background. This allows you to use the clap gesture as a trigger for finding your phone, regardless of its current state. It's important to note that the Clap Phone Finder app requires access to the device's microphone to function properly.

Available on Android

Using SnoreClock, you can easily know whether or not you snore. Simply place your smartphone near your bed and tap the red button on the app. The following morning, you'll gain valuable insights.
SnoreClock captures all sounds during your sleep and displays red bars indicating areas where snoring is likely to occur. Since the application records the entire night, you can extract even more information from it.
SnoreClock allows you to:
* Check if you snore
* Determine if your partner snores
* Identify if you talk in your sleep
* Discover any disturbances during your sleep
For a comprehensive analysis of all noises, switch your phone to landscape mode. Zoom in or out by pinching and dragging to navigate the display.
The bar graphs provide a visual representation of your snoring sounds, with snores displayed in red while other noises appear in gray. This feature serves as a useful tool to identify any potential disturbances to your sleep caused by various sounds during the night. 
Additionally, it enables you to determine the effectiveness of different remedies for snoring. If you observe a higher number of gray spikes than red ones, it indicates that the sounds recorded by your phone are primarily ambient noises from your surroundings rather than your own snoring.
