I AM NOT SOOTHED
These sounds are spooky and obnoxious! Even with the oscillator option off there's been times when while I'm asleep there's a sudden clap of thunder or crash of a wave that wakes me up..The piano songs are all so creepy, and the baby songs are one note types of songs not like symphonies. They get annoying quickly... The fireplace one sounds like a house burning down..not like a soft familiar crinkling you are familiar with... and idk who can sleep to the Shush option and the howling wind tunnel option..that's very very creepy...but I like creepy. Sometimes.
I'm on the premium and sometimes it takes days to load the sounds. I'm glad they made the price more affordable and annual instead of a monthly thing like the trash apps out there have.
Bottom line: good for conducting seances when you need some unsettling ambiance, not so much for sleep perhaps. Maybe if more soothing sounds were implemented or maybe redone recordings and the oscillation effects to stop...always open to hear new sounds though. I don't plan on getting off premium, but I also don't think these sounds will help me sleep very much at night...I just find it funny how they managed to take all the sounds that kept me wide awake at night and out them in a sleeping app...too funny..😅😵

Thanks for your very creative review. The app offers a large variety of sounds to suit various tastes. What types of sounds do you like to sleep to the most? Please contact me at support@kitefaster.com and I can see about adding them to the app. I'd also be happy to help ensure your sounds load quickly.
It’s like the baby whisperer
I downloaded this to help my one month old son fall asleep faster, and it works like a charm! I love the white noise and the pink noise options. I mixed both those sounds together and play them when I want my son to sleep. He’s a very content baby, most of the time, but he really struggles with falling asleep to the point where he will keep himself awake and get overtired. Almost as soon as I turn on the white noise, his eyes start to get heavy and it usually takes about 20 minutes or less for him to fall asleep. Without this it would be HOURS! we use this in the car to calm him down too because he absolutely hates being in the car seat. This usually helps soothe him to at least contentment and sometimes to sleep in the car as well. This app is an absolute must have for new parents! White noise is such a useful tool for fussy babies who don’t like sleeping like my baby, and this app is high quality! I don’t have the paid version and I think the free version gives me just what I need.

SO IMPRESSED!
I normally never write reviews but after last night I felt like I had to! I’m 7 months pregnant and can NOT sleep at night. Was averaging about 3 hours per night. Last night I didn’t fall asleep until 1am and woke up at 4:30am. I couldn’t get comfortable, I was wide awake, and so frustrated. My boyfriend laid next to me snoring away. I had the idea to look for a white noise app... and after choosing this one I put on the “Brown noise” (less high pitch than white noise) and it completely drowned out all other sounds in the room. I was asleep within 30 minutes and slept until 10am! Definitely my new go-to app!

Every mama needs!!
I downloaded the free version the day after I had my son 3 months ago and soooo glad I did. I started with womb noises when he was just born and it calmed him so fast and so easy. Now, I use the app whenever we’re out or without our other sound machine. Once he hears rain on rent he knows it’s sleep time same with the other 3 month old.
Just wish I could put the timer on for longer, he’ll wake up the second it turns off if I don’t reup it fast enough.

I fall asleep to it every night.
Many different choices of sound, plays in the background, and only lasts an hour (so the phone won't be on for long after I fall asleep).
Only real problem is that some sounds have extremely obvious loops, and this distracts me. But it's not a huge problem since I can listen to another sound that doesn't loop as obviously. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hi Thomas, Please email me at support@kitefaster.com and let me know which sounds you can hear the loops in and I'll work on smoothing those out. Thanks.
A life saver!
Seriously, thank you! When the baby is crying as crazy he goes into a loop, and the only way to calm him is to use the fan noise at higher speed for a couple of mins. Then I usually lower the volume for helping him to stay asleep. I have tried the other nicer sounds the app has, like the cat purring etc.. but no, he likes the fan :) Also appreciate the fact that for once something is free and working nicely!! Super highly recommended

Great for newborns!
I have a 3 weeks old baby girl. The first week was rough as we were adjusting to her sleep patterns. I came across this app and thought I’d give it a shot. There is a sound that replicates sounds from inside the womb and wow what a difference it made! She’s now sleeping in stretches of 4/5 hours and she’s less fussy because she’s well rested. I ended up buying up so that it’ll play all night. I noticed within minutes of the sounds stopping she would get fussy and start to wake up so to save myself waking up every hour to hit play I had to cave. Totally worth it though!

Great App!
There are so many choices of sounds but I use only a few that work well for me. Very good for blocking out noises in the house. I upgraded with one more payment to get the ability to have it run longer than the basic option so it plays all night and stops when I turn it off in the morning. Keep in mind though that you have to charge your device while using it if you play it all night. Very happy with this app!

Works pretty well
I paid for the ability to leave the noise running all night, since I wake up the minute there’s a change in sound. I have used it on vacations and it has been helpful. I recently started using it at home, because our noise maker just isn’t loud enough. It was working fine, but recently has been turning itself off so I wake up and can’t go back to sleep. Maybe I need an update. I only use the fan noise because it works best for me, but there are so many sounds to choose from.

I love it
I’m using only the free features of the app since I have troubles to fall asleep, not to stay asleep and to be honest one hour is even more than enough for me. My partner needs to fall asleep with full light and tv on while I need a complete darkness and silence. I put on my headphones, lovely crickets and I’m passed out in less than 5 minutes. I tired different noises and I highly recommend crickets. So lovely and peacefull. Oh and also, while you listen, keep thinking about positive things, like “I will fall asleep soon”. It has been proved that thoughts like this actually help to fall asleep faster ☺️
