What the tool does, how to run it, and what to expect from the result.
Put on headphones in a quiet room and set a comfortable volume. Start the high-tone sweep and press the big button the moment it fades away; the page records that frequency. Do the same for low tones. Young adults typically hear up to 17-20 kHz, and the limit drops with age, to about 12-14 kHz by 50-60. Equipment matters too: many headphones roll off above 16 kHz.

Short answers for the questions people usually have before trying a utility like this.
No. It checks your frequency range, not how quiet a sound you can hear at each pitch, which is what an audiologist’s audiogram measures. See a professional about any concern.
A tone around 17.4 kHz that most people over 25 cannot hear. Watch where you stop on the high sweep.

Start at a low volume and turn it up. Sounds are generated in your browser; nothing is recorded.
Use headphones in a quiet room. Set volume comfortable at the start; do not raise it during the sweep. Stop if anything is uncomfortable.
Young adults typically hear up to 17-20 kHz; the upper limit falls with age, to around 12-14 kHz by 50-60. Headphones and speakers often roll off above 16 kHz or below 40 Hz, which limits this test. This is a frequency-range check, not a medical hearing test; see an audiologist about any concern.
