App summary

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

User reviews
This white noise app is great. I've used it every single night, for many years now. I used to wake up frequently, living in an apartment complex with people making noise at all hours of the night, or in hotels while traveling. With the app, I no longer get disturbed by noisy neighbors. Even in the office or airport I put in my earbuds and drown out people's conversations. You can mix your own sounds and can adjust the tone, speed, position and volume of each component. It's fantastic!

I wrote my initial review in 2019. Now, however, the app frequently stops for no reason. I work nights and rely on the noise to sleep. When it stops, I wake up and then have a hard time getting back to sleep. I used to love the app, but now I'm looking for a more reliable one. 2019- It has a wide variety of background noises and I have yet to have it crash. Very good deal for the price.

The sound just randomly turns off in the middle of the night causing me to wake up. It looks like it may have stopped. The audio randomly stutters every now and then. Also there is an annoying post card thing that sometimes pops up when I open the app. For an app that is supposed to offer sound therapy, they sure managed to make it as ANNOYING as possible.
