### 5/5 — Love

*2025-05-22*

By far the best app I’ve found. The sounds are very realistic and my baby goes to sleep within minutes of the vacuum sound

### 5/5 — Rain is my fav

*2025-02-13, version 2.8*

Love this soothing app

### 2/5 — Good at a price

*2025-02-02*

I downloaded this app so I could record myself shushing and let it play on a loop for a set amount of time. It does do that. 

However, you MUST have the microphone turned on your phone while the app is running for you to play the audio. AND when the app is on in the background my speaker levels start constantly moving up and down on their own. This has made my phone get incredibly hot to the touch while I sleep. This only happens when the app is running in the background (like when I turned it on to calm and then fell asleep). I wish I could keep it but I’m going to need to get rid of it.

**Developer response:** Glad you used “My Voice” to play your own sound recording. Please try playing with “Play Now”, and without many other audio apps running at the same time. You need to use the microphone to record your voice, but you don’t need it to be on to simply play the sound. And nothing in this app moves the sound like you describe. Thousands use the app every day to help their babies sleep. Please contact us directly in the app via “Questions or Feedback”, we’d be glad to help further.

### 3/5 — ドライヤー

*2025-01-30*

ドライヤー音もあったら最高です

**Developer response:** サウンドカタログにこのサウンドがあります。サウンドカタログからマイサウンドにこのサウンドをダウンロードしてください。

### 5/5 — this is a really good app

*2024-11-13*

This app is so good. I use it every night when you can fall asleep lots of soothing sounds.

### 4/5 — Green noise and coqui frog sounds wanted

*2024-05-11, version 2.7*

Brown noise is my go to but sometimes it freezes and won’t play so I have to select another noise then go back to get the brown noise to work-this happens a lot.That’s why I knocked down a star. Would like a green noise and coqui frogs as options as well

### 4/5 — Almost perfect!

*2024-01-20*

Really good library of sounds!  Some of them work almost instantly to calm the baby and help to sleep.  It is a bit annoying to have to decline the upgrade Every time, & mostly my gripe with that is you have press “cancel “ to decline the upgrade , which when your in a panic to calm to baby is not great.  But I guess that’s totally expected for a free app.

**Developer response:** Glad you like the library of sounds and they help calm your baby to sleep. We’re glad to be able to provide the 50+ sounds and auto-shusher for free. Please try keeping the app open and your issue will also be resolved. The upgrade also removes all ads and promotions and is a small one-time fee (no subscription).

### 1/5 — X

*2024-01-12*

Шляпа,куча таких же приложений,но бесплатно

### 5/5 — Gg

*2024-01-10*

### 1/5 — Creepy eye

*2023-09-26*

There is a creepy eye in the fan one. Will not use again. Too scared of that.
