Your daily companion for focus, sleep, energy, and inner balance. Aethyr Waves combines binaural beat frequencies with live-generated ambient music. No loops, no two sessions ever sound the same. Every preset is engineered around a specific brainwave band — Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, or Gamma — to gently support a distinct mental state. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Procedural music engine — melodies, pads, arpeggios, and drums composed in real time, never repeating • 17 curated musical moods spanning peaceful, cosmic, energetic, genre, and active soundscapes • 37 specialized sessions across 8 categories: Mental, Sport, Emotional, Pain & Health, Sleep, Productivity, Wellness, and Active Predisposition • Dynamic session arc — intros breathe gently, peaks bring energy, outros settle for a calm close • Personalized wizard that recommends your session based on goal and energy • Five binaural bands precisely tuned to standard neuroscience frequencies NEW IN 1.4.0 — ACTIVE PREDISPOSITION A new category designed to prime your mind for action, not accompany it. Pre-gym, pre-pitch, pre-presentation, morning surge — sessions powered by real drum kits (kick, snare, hi-hat), sidechain compression for that classic EDM pump, and tempo curves that accelerate with you (the Ignition session ramps from 88 to 124 BPM in its first minute). DESIGNED FOR DAILY USE Whether you are working, meditating, sleeping, training, or creating, Aethyr Waves adapts to your needs with sessions from 5 minutes to unlimited duration. Background audio keeps your session running while you use other apps, and a guided 4-step wizard gets you started in seconds. FREE TIER 5 starter sessions including Meditation, Deep Focus, Mindfulness, Repetitive Work, and Gamer Focus, with sessions up to 5 minutes and a daily limit of 20 minutes total.

NEW • Richer music: every session now has a melodic line with character — motifs that develop, harmony that moves, and a shape that evolves instead of looping. Less repetition, more actual music. • Tap a session and it starts instantly — no more scrolling to a start button. • Floating play/stop, always within reach while you tune the session. • The app opens straight into the full view; the assistant is still one button away whenever you want guiding. • Reworked visualizer: three styles (Interference, Waves, Calm) and a fullscreen landscape mode to see it big. IMPROVED • The melody sits better over the binaural tones — more present and clear. • Tuned presets: Brainstorming and Creativity are now distinct experiences. • A genuinely sharp visualizer on Retina screens, and easier on the battery. • No accidental zoom, and steadier scrolling throughout. FIXED • The app no longer asks you to sign in with your Apple ID over and over. • Your most-used session is counted again in Your Progress. • The lock screen shows the session name instead of "Aethyr Waves". ### 1.5.0 — 2026-06-15 Our richest sound yet — and the app now remembers your journey. NEW • Favorites: heart any session and find it in its own tab • Your Progress: day streak, weekly minutes and your most-used session — stored on your device only • Custom presets: save your exact setup (frequency, noise, mood, volumes) under your own name • Sleep fade-out: Deep Sleep, Insomnia and Lucid Dreams now fade gently to silence so the ending never wakes you • Streak reminder: a subtle nudge when your streak needs a session today IMPROVED • Richer, more natural instruments: kalimba, harp and bells now lose brightness like real instruments do • Wider stereo image: the music surrounds you instead of sitting in the center • Reverb now evolves through your session — intimate intro, immersive peak, calm landing • Every music style gets its own acoustic space (cathedral, hall, chamber…) • Gentle sessions no longer open with silence: the harmony is there from the first second • Heroic gains subtle percussion, Cinematic gets its true crescendo • Better contrast and VoiceOver support throughout ### 1.4.0 — 2026-05-21 A complete audio overhaul plus a new family of high-energy sessions. A FULLY EVOLVED SOUND DESIGN Every session now flows through a rich atmospheric chain: convolution-style reverb tuned per mood (cathedral spaces for meditation, intimate rooms for active sessions), stereo widening with Haas effect on the melody for spatial depth, an air-band shelf that adds shimmer to bells and arpeggios, and a per-mood reverb balance. The result is a more immersive, professional, commercial-grade sonic experience. NEW — ACTIVE PREDISPOSITION CATEGORY Four sessions designed to prime your brain for activity: Ignition, Combat Focus, Morning Surge, and Pitch Mode. Each one pairs targeted brainwave entrainment with high-energy procedural music. NEW — REAL DRUM KIT The active sessions are powered by a fully procedural drum kit — kick with deep sub-pitch sweeps, snare with body and snap layers, hi-hats — plus sidechain compression that ducks pads and arps on every kick for that classic EDM pump. NEW — DYNAMIC SESSION ARC Every session now breathes. Intros stay gentle to let you settle in, the peak section brings full energy and complexity, outros soften toward a calm close. The shape adapts to each mood — meditation breathes barely perceptibly, active sessions push hard at peak. NEW — TEMPO CURVES Ignition accelerates from 88 to 124 BPM in its first minute, matching the rising arousal of a pre-activity ritual. REFINED MIX BALANCE We retuned every preset's mix so binaural beats, noise, and music sit in a clearer, more balanced relationship. The melody layer now sounds more present without overwhelming the binaural carrier. UNDER THE HOOD • New Active Rush musical mood, selectable in advanced mode • In-app rating prompt after five completed sessions • "Rate the app" link in the footer • Master volume slider now works on iOS (it was previously silent — sorry) • Stability fixes and audio session improvements ### 1.3.1 — 2026-04-28 Audio improvements: • Removed the sharp "ping" in gentle sessions (Calm, Healing, Ethereal, Astral, Mysterious, Sacred) • Cleaner sub-bass pulse in Spiritual, Astral Electronic, and Cinematic sessions • Harps and bells in meditative moods now float instead of poking through Fixes: • The wizard now correctly highlights the recommended music style when picking Meditate, Focus, or Sport ### 1.3 — 2026-04-28 Major audio engine rebuild and visual refresh. NEW • Four new procedural music moods: Spiritual, Astral Electronic, Cinematic, and Dreamscape • Custom artisan icon set across every session and the goal wizard • Sub-bass pulse layer for an extra rhythmic anchor on focus and movement-oriented sessions • Sessions now keep playing seamlessly while you use Instagram, YouTube, Spotify, or any other app IMPROVED • Procedural melodies sound more coherent, with fewer dissonant notes and smoother harmonic flow between chord changes • Ambient sessions (Calm, Healing, Meditation, Mindfulness) now feel like floating pad textures rather than struck instruments • Active sessions (Focus, Workout, Creativity) keep their drive without overpowering the mix • Automatic session resume after phone calls or short interruptions • Cleaner typography on first launch FIXED • "Undefined" placeholder on the wizard recommendation screen • Disproportionate text sizing on first app launch • Out-of-tune sub-bass pulse when sessions used custom binaural frequencies ## Apps similar to Aethyr Waves | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Thriving.AI Connected Living](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/thrivingai-connected-living/id1446055457) | 5.0 (1) | Free | Health & Fitness | | [Shredz Fitness Coaching](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/shredz-fitness-coaching/id6475300224) | — | Free | Health & Fitness | | [Neurona: Binaural Beats Sleep](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/neurona-binaural-beats-sleep/id6757725304) | — | Free | Health & Fitness | | [Lunvia: Menstrual Calendar](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/lunvia-menstrual-calendar/id6786839870) | — | Free | Health & Fitness | | [V2 Volleyball](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/v2-volleyball/id6746718038) | — | Free | Health & Fitness | | [Quit Smoking & Vaping: Smokly](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/quit-smoking-and-vaping-smokly/id6757360530) | — | Free | Health & Fitness | ## More apps by SEBASTIAN E HERNANDEZ CACERES - [Pawmark](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/pawmark/id6767772573) - [Scryer: Glitch Ritual](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/scryer-glitch-ritual/id6776792875) All apps by SEBASTIAN E HERNANDEZ CACERES: https://appshunter.io/developer/1888000839 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
