  • This is a real gem

    I seldom (if not never) write a review but this app is simply a gem. They are real ambient recordings engineered and stored in a simple but sublime way.

    I especially like its Central Park recording, which reminds me of the good old days when I first came to New York City and lived near the park...

  • An Impressive Collection

    Excellent as a white noise and background track without being distracting, but also can create a soothing atmosphere when you are in need of a change of environment or to concentrate on work.

    Also good mood music for writing, you can change your audial environment to suit the scenes you're writing, so it can inspire you and give you cues to write about.

  • Beautiful, long and deep

    One of the things I can’t stand in many nature sound apps or nature recordings these days is the obnoxious overlaying of tacky spa music, or clips that only last 4 or 5 minutes, or ones that are clearly faked with overlay after overlay of separate sounds. This is the real thing. Unvarnished, uninterrupted, unaltered and majestic. Well worth the tiny cost. Not only are these recordings deeply calming and helpful as background for contemplative work or study, but they are time capsules of an environments that are tragically swiftly disappearing. Buy this, if only to honor the great craftsman who made them and captured these aural worlds for posterity.

  • Please Add Ability to Use Alarm

    I love this app. Please add the ability to use it as an alarm like you can do with Pandora, for example. I would love to use these sounds as a morning alarm-would be so much better than the built-in phone ringtones or music from my playlist.
  • Truly wonderful, needs Chromecast support

    As fantastic as it is, I’m giving this app 4 instead of 5 stars because it lacks Chromecast support. If you’re making an audio app in 2018, you’ve got to at least throw a bone to the millions of people who aren’t completely bought in to the Appleverse.
  • Sensitivity area of “Play” button to be improved

    Greate app and sounds. One downside though. Sensitivity area of navigation buttons “Play” and “Information” should be improved. Very easy to miss even with fairly precise touches.
  • Clunky at best

    The sounds recorded is good, and there is a decent (although very limited) bit of stuff. However, it’s not optimized for the iPad and the interface is clunky and hard to use. It needs some serious polish before they can ethically charge for it.
  • Beautiful Sounds

    I love this app, I was worried I might be disappointed by the sound quality despite the good reviews but I’m happy to report it is just as gorgeous as I hoped. I’ll definitely be using this app everyday. I’m in school and really wanted music for background noise when I study and this is perfect.
  • Sublime

    Best thing I’ve downloaded in years. Absolutely beautiful. I hope there will be more recordings released in the future.
  • Beautiful recordings, disgracefully half-baked app

    The recordings are incredible, the app is half-baked and just terrible.

    You can’t control anything from the app itself. You can pause, but not skip forward in a track and it’s permanently in portrait mode even when my ipad is in landscape on its keyboard. The grainy pictures are awful.

    Why put out this incredible body of work and make it next to impossible to listen to it?
