Whether you’re looking to improve sleep quality or just want to relax, use these apps to unwind with soothing sounds, stories, meditations, and more. Listen to ready-made mixes or blend noises to create your own ambience.

Drift to sleep with the comforting sounds of a crackling bonfire, a crisp winter evening, and more. Choose a main sound, then add additional layers of noise, like rain or crickets. You can adjust the volume of each layer to form a soothing symphony. Or set a timer before you go to bed, so it doesn’t disturb your sweet dreams.

Listen to a variety of relaxing sounds, guided meditations, and even historic or classic stories. Close your eyes for a narrated journey through scenic destinations like the Grand Canyon or Iceland. With a premium subscription, you can access the entire library, mix sounds, and download content for offline listening.

Get a better night’s sleep by listening to lulling music, bedtime stories, meditations, and more. Let sounds like ocean waves or rain on a cabin roof draw you into a deep slumber. You can also listen to curated playlists that help with things like stress, insomnia, and breathwork. Guided meditations help children fall asleep, so their parents can get some shut-eye too.
