Accuracy using a phone relies on the crap microphone in the phone.
As previously posted, there are aftermarket microphones that meet pretty tight NIOSH standards. Follow link within link for details. Each one comes with individual correction curves.
I've got one for my iPhone. :)
Honestly, the readings vary little between that, standard phone and a Radio Shack Digital using correction curves.
