About this app

Recommended as a miracle for better sleep! Find out why the world is sleeping better with White Noise. Features ambient sounds of the environment to help you relax during the day and sleep great at night.

Do you have trouble going to sleep? Are you traveling on a plane and need a quick power nap? Does your newborn baby wake up in the middle of the night? There are numerous benefits to using White Noise:

• Helps you sleep by blocking distractions
• Relaxes and reduces stress
• Pacifies fussy and crying babies
• Increases focus while enhancing privacy
• Soothes headaches and migraines
• Masks tinnitus (ringing of the ears)

Even when you’re asleep, your brain is constantly scanning and listening for sounds. If it’s too quiet, unwanted noises such as faucet drips or police sirens can interrupt your sleep. White Noise generates sounds over a wide range of frequencies, masking those noise interruptions, so you can not only fall asleep, but stay asleep.

Ratings and reviews

I've been using this for several years but now facing issues with crackly sound. Whenever I use with Bluetooth headphones with aptX profile, the sound quality is fully of gaps and static (across multiple phones and headsets). LDAC or changing the pairing to use SBC resolves this. Not all headsets support LDAC and SBC is lower quality. Please fix! Other than that. This is my favorite app with the flexibility of downloading new sounds from the market. The interface, while usable, needs modernized.

The UI needs improvement, it feels like every tab was made independently from each other. Navigation can be a bit confusing. An example is if you switch from mixes to sounds, it stops playing the mix. I haven't played around with things too much, but it looks like there isn't an option to fade off. Okay, now that my criticisms are out of the way, this app is great. I would list everything off that I liked, but I literally don't have any room left in this review. I'll update this review later.

This app is amazing, so many quality sounds and frequencies. I just found the free version recently but after discovering how much they offer for free, Ii just felt the need to support the developers and buy the upgraded version. I appreciate the fact that i wasn't harassed by ads in the free version and had access to such a big library of sounds. That's my way of buying you guys coffee. Cheers.
