Needs a timer. *2022-07-29, version 1.3* Not interested in having it running all night. Other than that, great app. ### 4/5 — Timer *2021-03-26* Bella app sarebbe interessante avere la possibilità di inserire un timer, in modo da disattivare i suoni prima di addormentarsi ### 4/5 — Good App *2020-10-14* Does what it says. No ads so that's a huge plus and free. The user interface needs a little polish. The scroll bars disappear and you need to resize the window to get them back. Also the slider controls are 'sticky', they don't move smoothly. BUT it's free so this is said gently to the developer. I like the app and recommend it. ### 4/5 — Stupenda *2020-08-07* Questa è la mia app di suoni preferita, la uso sempre quando lavoro. Però manca la sincronizzazione iCloud e scorrere su è giù col mouse non funziona sempre. **Developer response:** Thanks for your comments! ### 4/5 — Love the Sounds — Can't get it to scroll *2020-05-15, version 1.0* Thank you for this much needed app, and at no cost, no less! A major issue for me right now is that I can't get it to scroll on macOS (running 10.15.4). ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Broken UI *2025-01-27, version 1.1.1* I cannot move or interact with the app window at all except to close it. So I guess you could the say the close button is this app’s best feature. ### 2/5 — Non-Percussion Instrumentals.. *2025-04-24, version 3.0* . . ( ov Ambient[li//ly) art myn fav ### 2/5 — Needs Work *2023-04-23, version 3.0* This app is ok, except that there are very noticeable breaks in the loops. The 'River' sound has a fade-out and back in that lasts about two seconds, which is the longest I've ever heard in a noise app. ### 2/5 — m1 macOS version displays tiles badly *2021-12-17, version 1.1.1* I enjoy the app on iPadOS and iOS, but on my M1 mac mini, the sound tiles are only 20px tall (including the title at the top) and don't wrap, making it impossible to change the sound volume. Also, the support link in the app store goes the the developer site, but has no support options. Love the app, just reporting the bug. ### 2/5 — pocos sonidos *2020-09-23* Repertorio de sonidos muy corto, no hay acceso a la misma cantidad en el ordenador que en el ipad. ### 3/5 — macOS Monterey issue *2023-01-09* the main screen button layout it broken on Monterrey. It is not possible to select most of the sounds. The Developer website is not reacheable anymore. ### 3/5 — Great sounds, bad interface *2022-09-12, version 1.1.1* The sounds are great, but it doesn't look like the app images above. Take a quarter inch strip of each of the photos and stack them so the entire height of the images is shorter than one image if it were square as shown in the app store. Also, the window cannot be moved, only changed in size. It would probably be a 4 or 5 if they fixed the interface though! Running it on MacOS 12.5.1 ### 3/5 — Sounds are great but not tested on Macs? *2022-05-24* The graphics are displaying incorrectly on Macs - all scrunched up weirdly. Sounds themselves are fine, and love that it's free. Hope you can fix the interface then 5 stars! ### 3/5 — Mac Desktop Version Needs Work *2022-01-17, version 1.1.1* I was looking for something similar to iOS background sounds for my Mac and found this app. Great concept but the interface doesn't work correctly in the desktop version. It's still functional but all the elements are vertically compressed, making it hard to figure out. ### 3/5 — great sounds, can't scroll *2021-08-04, version 1.1.1* Hi, this is a potentially lovely app with great sounds and a nice interface, but I can't scroll in any direction. I see reviews from a year ago mentioning the same problem, it would be really great to get this fixed - this app could be a lifesaver while I work from home with noisy neighbors! :) ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2024-10-15* Great app, thank you! If you will develop it further, it would be nice to add a sleep timer. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your feedback! ### 5/5 — Great app (with suggestion) *2022-05-20, version 1.3* Love the app! Simple easy to use. Visually pleasing (the app and the app icon actually). And the sounds are great and mixing. I would love if a pink noise sound and brown noise sound could be added. ### 5/5 — Топ приложение👆😇 *2020-11-12* Приложение очень хорошее,помогает сконцентрироваться на учёбе. **Developer response:** Thanks! ### 5/5 — Perfect Loops *2020-10-19, version 1.1.1* I love that the sound samples are long enough to where they sound more realistic. It isn't just a 60-second loop that starts sounding repetitive after a few minutes. I prefer ambient social sounds, like a restaurant and people - Ambiently has the best sound files for both that I've found so far. I like to feel like I'm in a cafe when I blog, so I've created a mixtape out of those two (another feature I love) so I can jump right into it when I start writing. AND, best of all, there aren't any "free trial" restrictions or annoying pop-up telling me to buy premium anything. It's an all-around free ambient app :) ### 5/5 — Wow *2020-09-28* Si può creare davvero di tutto, da suoni rilassanti e ambientali a suoni horror e inquietanti, qualità fantastica, sono sorpreso sia del tutto gratuita! ### 5/5 — Loving it. Its a gem. *2020-06-26* Best freeware available on apple store for mac. **Developer response:** Thanks for you comment! ### 5/5 — It could be a nice app, but I cant scroll up or down *2020-05-25, version 1.1* Fancy design with different kinds of comforting sounds, please fix this scroll problem, thank you! ### 5/5 — Sound Mixer *2019-11-27, version 1.0* I’ve been looking for a replacement Ambient sound App since the one I used was no longer supported. This App is awesome. Endless compilations. Thank you for building an incredible App. ### 4/5 — Great sounds, but timer needed *2025-01-31, version 3.0* I love the variety of sounds and the ability to mix them at varied levels. The app needs a timer so you can have the sounds stop at some point (currently they just play forever). ### 4/5 — So far, so good *2022-11-13, version 3.0* I've been looking for a replacement for Ambiance since it stopped being supported and only my older devices have been able to run it. Unfortunately, that means my favorite sleep mix is no longer really able to work with HomePod Mini, at least not by AirPlay and the Bluetooth connection often drops in the middle of the night. Enter Ambiently! My favorite mix is a "camping" mix with Rain on a Tent, Campfire in the distance, a stream, etc. I can come close with Ambiently, which is huge. No other app I have tried has allowed easy mixing and saved mixes in this way. Just a couple of things I would love to see: 1. Import of sound loops. It's be awesome to include the ability to put in my own loops. 2. Ability to rename/delete mixes. 3. Airplay button to choose external source. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
