UK iPhone app developer Essency Limited has announced that V2.4 of Awareness! The Headphone App will be free for 2 days, until the 1st of January 2012. Awareness! is a unique app that allows headphone users to hear what’s going on around them while listening to music (or any other audio) on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. With Awareness! you can hear when the person next to you talks, or if out walking or cycling, when a car or truck blows its horn.

With increasing numbers of sports users wearing in-ear and closed headphones, there are serious safety issues caused by their isolation from the world around them.
Awareness! solves the problem of headphone isolation, by feeding the outside world into the music, allowing users to listen to their music and remain fully world aware.
This is an essential app for music listening pedestrians, drivers, cyclists, bikers, joggers, runners and others who need audio awareness for safety’s sake.
