Ratings and reviews

Excellent app for ambient music, with a good variety of free sound effects (the fistfighting, according to my players, sounds more like minics or bones rattling than anything else but thats fine, versatility), and I appreciate the UI changes with the new update. HOWEVER, this new update also has it crashing a lot more frequently on my Samsung s25 plus, around 6 times over 4 hours.

Absolutely amazing app. Being able to add in ambience to music really helps keep attention on what you're doing and not the music. I do want a pay once option for scene packs. The biggest issue I have is incompatibility with the media player card in the drop down shade. When the app is playing in the background, I can't access play/pause from the notification shade so I have to open the app. Also features like auto pause when you disconnect headphones don't work. On Pixel 7a & updated software

New and improved! I really love to listen to this while I clean or sleep. I honestly think if there was a timer for those of us using it for sleeping to would be even better. I do like the new set up. It flawlessly moves from one sound to another blending it together in the transition making it more natural. I have started using the app while writing as well. It truly draws inspiration. I just think a timer would make it even better. This app is more than just for gaming. It's life's ambiance.
