About this app

Sounds to fall asleep to. Nothing else.

No guided meditation. No bedtime stories. No sleep tracking. No coaching, no streaks, no score in the morning. You pick sounds, you say how long, and the app gets out of the way.

LAYER WHAT YOU LIKE
Twenty looping sounds — brown, pink and white noise, four kinds of rain, a wood fire, crickets, waves, a night train, a purring cat, a fan, the murmur of a café. Stack up to six of them and drag each one to the level you want. Rain under a fire. A fan under distant thunder. Whatever puts you out.

A TIMER THAT ENDS PROPERLY
Thirty minutes, an hour, or all night. With fade-out on, the last five minutes slide down to silence while the screen goes to black — so nothing wakes you to stop it.

IT KEEPS PLAYING
Lock the phone and the sound stays. Pause it, add fifteen minutes, or cut it from the lock screen without opening anything. Home-screen and lock-screen widgets do the same.

NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE
No account. No email. No sign-up. Your mixes are yours and they stay on the device.

WHEN IT HELPS

• Noisy neighbours, a busy street, roadworks at six in the morning
• Someone snoring beside you
• A bedroom so quiet that every creak carries
• A twenty-minute nap, timer set, with no risk of sleeping an hour
• A night train, a plane, an unfamiliar hotel room
• Night shifts, when you have to sleep in broad daylight

Continuous sound at a low level masks the noises that travel — voices, a television behind a wall, traffic. That is why white noise for sleep, pink noise and brown noise are the first three sounds in the app, and why you can lay them under light rain or a wood fire.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Does it need a connection? No. All twenty loops are installed with the app and played locally, airplane mode included.

How many sounds at once? Up to six, each with its own volume, and the blend saves so one tap brings it back.

Is there a subscription? No. Four sounds are free with no time limit, and the full version is a single purchase.

FREE, AND THE REST ONCE
Four sounds and one saved mix, free, with no ads and no trial that turns into a subscription. One payment unlocks the other sixteen sounds, unlimited saved mixes, and an equaliser to shape the mix to your room. Once. Not every month.

What’s new

20 ambient sounds to fall asleep to: continuous noise, rain, nature, home, elsewhere. Layer up to six at once and set each one's volume with a gesture that works in the dark.

A timer that fades out over the last five minutes. A night mode that dims the screen to almost nothing. A widget to start a saved mix from the lock screen.

Everything plays offline. No account, no email, no subscription — four sounds are free, the rest is a single purchase.
