During the games at the Lesotho SOccer World Cup - can the iVuvuvela app beat the real thing? It may take time for one to master the sound of a bee to come out of the real vuvuzela, but nothing beats the real thing.
According to NewsTime:
iPhone Vuvuzela App A Blast!
South Africa’s much talked about vuvuzela football horn has become a massive hit with users of Apple’s iPhone.
The iPhone has an application or “app” which mimicks the sound of the powerful horn’s blast and already over a million iPhone users have downloaded it. This as some TV stations, most notably the UK’s BBC, mull over cancelling out the noise from the vuvuzela during their broadcasts.
The iPhone app was designed by a Dutch pair, which is quite the irony given that their national football team has been amongst the most critical of the instrument. The iVuvuzela app’s popularity exploded after the start of the tournament as the horn became a global news phenomenon.
The iVuvuzela only produces around 90dB on the iPhone as opposed to 130dB in real life, but they say you can always hook it up to an amplifier should you need more of a “kick”.
