## What is Binaural Beats Generator +?

Generate custom binaural beats around any base frequency including Alpha, Beta, Delta, Gamma, Mu, and Theta waves.  Simple modern interface allows selecting Binaural Beats from 1 to 50 Hz and a Base Frequency from 20 to 1500 Hz. Binaural Beats require high quality headphones or stereo speakers.  

What are binaural beats?  
Binaural beats can help with sleep, focus, and meditation.  They are an auditory illusion perceived when two different tones of slightly different frequency are presented to each ear.  The frequencies are very low and each one is tuned specifically for each ear which is why headphones are required.

What are the different types of binaural beats?
- Alpha waves are associated with a restful and relaxed state that exists when both entering and exiting sleep.
- Beta waves are associated with concentration and moderate alertness.
- Delta waves are associated with deep sleep cycles and the release of physical awareness.  
- Gamma waves are associated with alertness and sensitive perception.
- Mu waves are associated with a state of physical rest, stillness, and immobility.
- Theta waves are associated with the heavy relaxation that comes from frequency, deep meditation.

Directions:
Drag slider to select a desired Binaural Beat from 1 to 50 Hz.  Next, drag the base frequency to a tone that sounds pleasant to your ears.  The binaural beat is generated around this base frequency.   Adjust device volume using the on-screen volume slider to a comfortable level.  You can also specify to play audio to any AirPlay supported device.  Toggle audio playback using the Play/Pause button.

### 1/5 — Simulated binaural phenomena; not actual hemispheric entrainment.

*2026-08-04, version 5.0.4*

This app simulates a pulsing beat that corresponds with the binaural frequency that the user selects.

True binaural beats are a brain-only phenomena, and are not audible outside one’s own auditory perception.

To test the app I played it in my car, and my car rattled at the set pulsed frequency. … This should not happen with true binaural beats… again, it’s a brain-only effect.

### 1/5 — Not working iPhone 17. IS 26.5

*2026-05-28, version 3.0.9*

The title says it all.

### 1/5 — Full of ads

*2026-05-25, version 3.0.8*

Just way too many ads

### 5/5 — A MUST!

*2026-05-13, version 3.0.5*

This App is Awesome! The latest upgrades are useful.

### 4/5 — Great app How do we get rid of the advertisements at the bottom?

*2026-05-06, version 3.0*

Great app How do we get rid of the advertisements at the bottom?

### 5/5 — Lets you customize settings and save presets

*2026-05-06, version 3.0*

I love this app! I discovered it after trying binaural meditations and I wanted to continue to hear binaural beats for extended time. 

It lets you customize the binaural beat frequency from 1 Hz to 50 Hz and the base frequency from 20 Hz to 1500 Hz so you can experiment with different settings and you can save presets for settings that you want to use again. I believe there is a timer also, but I like to play it while I sleep so I appreciate that they allow you to play it without forcing a timer. 

For me personally, I have found that setting the binaural beat frequency at 4 Hz, the base frequency at 110 Hz, and turning it to a volume that I can lightly hear in my headphones has done wonders for my sleep. Make sure you use headphones for it to work properly.

### 1/5 — Change back!!

*2026-05-04, version 3.0*

I’m super disappointed by the app update. I would always play iPhone background noise (like “dark noise”) with the binaural beat playing at a low volume, which made the higher tones tolerable. Now when I try to adjust the volume of the tone in the app, it also adjusts the volume of my iPhone background noise. Please change it back so that I can adjust background noise and sounds from the app separately.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2026-03-28, version 2.2*

I decided to go to school at 39. I was struggling a bit with ADHD and collage work. I was recommended Binaural Beats by Gemini AI to help. I started using it daily and found I was able to focus much better. I feel that its helped me retain much better too. I have been using 40 over 80 while leaning, and 1 over 20 to help move info from short term memory, to long term memory. This was the app that I liked the best out of all the options available. Thank you!

### 2/5 — Cannot separate Lt and Rt ear sounds.

*2026-03-28, version 2.2*

It would be perfect if I could separate art and left speed frequencies.. but alas  only 2 stars until it can

### 1/5 — NOT binaural beats

*2026-02-16, version 2.2*

This app advertises binaural beats, but it doesn’t actually generate true binaural signals. In real binaural beats, each ear receives a steady tone at a slightly different frequency, and the brain produces the perceived beat internally. With this app, you can clearly hear the pulsing beat in each ear individually, which means the beat is being directly encoded into the audio rather than created by neural processing. That defeats the purpose for anyone specifically seeking authentic binaural stimulation. One star for misleading implementation.

## Frequently asked questions about Binaural Beats Generator +

### What are binaural beats and how do they work?

Binaural beats are an auditory illusion created when two tones of slightly different frequencies are played into each ear. This difference in frequency is perceived by the brain as a third, distinct tone, which can influence brainwave activity. They are often used to promote states like sleep, focus, or meditation.

### What types of brainwaves can this app generate?

The app can generate binaural beats associated with Alpha waves (restful, relaxed state), Beta waves (concentration, alertness), Delta waves (deep sleep), Gamma waves (alertness, sensitive perception), Mu waves (physical rest, stillness), and Theta waves (deep meditation, heavy relaxation).

### What are the requirements for using this app?

For the best experience and to properly perceive binaural beats, high-quality headphones or stereo speakers are required. The app also allows you to specify playing audio to any AirPlay supported device.

### How do I use the app to create binaural beats?

You can use the sliders to select your desired binaural beat frequency (1-50 Hz) and a base frequency (20-1500 Hz) that sounds pleasant. The binaural beat is then generated around this base frequency. Adjust the device volume to a comfortable level and use the Play/Pause button to control playback.

### Is this app free to use?

The app is free to download and use. However, it does contain advertisements. Additional features or content may be available through in-app purchases.
