About this app

Sleep Timer lets you fall asleep to your favorite music. You simply start your music, and then set the countdown timer. At the end of the countdown, Sleep Timer softly fades your music out and stops it. Allowing you to get your precious sleep and stops your battery from draining.

Listen to music while falling asleep
Sleep Timer softly lowers the volume and then turns your music off. It works just like a Sleep Timer on the stereo or TV.

Use your favorite music player or even YouTube!
Works with Google Play Music, TuneIn Radio, Spotify, YouTube and many many more. To verify whether it works with your favorite player, just download the app and try it out.

Select how long you want the music to play
Our intuitive and beautiful user interface allows you to effortlessly set the duration of the timer and start it.

Create presets for your frequently used timers
With our presets, you can switch between standard timers with just one tap

Prevent your battery from draining
At the end of the timer, the music is stopped* to prevent your phone from playing music all night and draining the battery.

*For some apps, pausing the music does not work. In that case the phone volume will set to mute as a last resort. In this case, the music will continue playing.

Shake to extend timer
Sometimes falling asleep is not that easy. Our shake to extend allows you to shake the phone to extend the duration of the timer, without you having to unlock your phone.

Premium version (Available via in-app)
Ad-free
Beautiful Widget for your homescreen

Please try it with your favorite player before buying.

Ratings and reviews

It's lovely, intuitive, and just dang helpful. I sometimes have a hard time falling asleep, so I set this – and use the setting so that the audio fades out at the end … so the LACK OF SOUND doesn't ping your brain – then put on a free classic from Librivox. Voila! [In Librivox, try David Clark's narration of The Count of Monte Cristo, or the Sherlock Holmes books. Fantastic. Or, to fall asleep even quicker, finally "read" Moby Dick. 🤪]

The app does not work to turn off my podcast so it would continuously run through the night until I was woken up which was very annoying causing bad sleep, when I test it sometimes it works sometimes it does not, so it's not consistent. I also paid to remove the ads. There's a setting unless I allow notification access which it says will let it read all my messages and texts, which is a privacy concern, so I did not let it turn on. Anybody has any tip to make it work? Thanks.

Made this review 4 years ago and to this day I recommend it. Not a single notable issue over 4 years and multiple phones. I really love this app. I have a hard time waking up to my alarms when something else has been playing all night (videos, music, podcasts), but I also have a hard time falling asleep in dead silence. This app is great because it automatically turns off whatever player you're using! I haven't found a player that doesn't work with this app yet. Nothing wrong with it at all.
