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.

SOUND CATALOG

40 sounds are included as part of the application (no downloading required unless you want more) including all the color noises (brown, white, pink, etc), mechanical sounds like a bedroom fan or air conditioner, light to heavy rains, rushing water sounds, beach and ocean waves, and so much more. For the entire list of sounds please visit our website. No streaming is required for playback.

Have been using this app for years w/o issue and loved it. With the latest update the sound from each ear (I use a lot with earbuds) fluctuates up and down and from left to right. I use this app to help me stay focused when reading etc. and this new change drives me crazy! More distracting than anything. Looked for a way to disable this in settings and cannot find anything. Very frustrating!

This app is worth every single penny! I have been using it nightly for years now and have only one constructive comment. It would neat if the total time listened could be backed up/transferred. I enjoy seeing "X Days" listened but every time I upgrade my phone I lose the total time which wouldn't be bad if it didn't take years to build.

I've been using the app for years, but lately it's been acting weird. For some reason the app minimized itself and stopped making noise. If I bring it back up, the noise automatically starts again. It's been doing this every night for the last month. What's going on? Update: I think the issue was with my phone. There was an apparent issue with the wireless charging pad making the phone too hot. I've switched to a charging cable and the problem went away.
