Useless
Response from developer
Fair point on the surface, three audio tracks does sound minimal. The difference is in what's in those tracks, not how many there are. They're built with specific frequency filtering and layered audio techniques designed to mask low-end bass noise (the stuff that travels through walls), which most "white noise" apps aren't built to handle. That said, I want the app to actually earn its price for you. If you can tell me what kind of noise you're trying to block and what device you're playing it on, I'll take a real look at whether something's off on our end or if there's a better fit for your situation.
Wow…
$7/month. Basically stealing money. This is an insult to all developers who actually spit blood to deliver quality products. Truly repulsive.

Thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry Boom Buster did not feel valuable to you. The app is designed to provide simple, layered low, mid, and high frequency noise options for people dealing with unwanted background noise, especially low-frequency sounds like bass, traffic, or neighbor noise. That said, we understand pricing and value need to feel fair. We’re continuing to improve the app, and feedback like this helps us see where we need to do better. If you’re open to it, please contact us through the app so we can better understand what you expected and how we can improve the experience.
Better than a white noise machine
Response from developer
This is exactly the scenario BoomBuster was built for, open windows, apartment walls, bass that just won't stay on the other side of them. Really glad it's working for you. Enjoy the quiet (well, the good kind of noise).
Works Great!

We are glad it worked for you!
A Perfect “Mute Button” For Loud Vehicles.
Response from developer
A roaring muffler going from clearly audible to silent is a great real-world stress test — and ANC headphones plus BoomBuster is a strong combo, since ANC handles steady-state noise while BoomBuster's low-frequency masking and binaural processing goes after the stuff that sneaks through. Really appreciate you sharing this one. Silence really is golden.
Just what I was looking for
Response from developer
That's the whole pitch right there, no extra hardware needed, just a Bluetooth speaker you probably already own. Glad it saved you the purchase (and the counter space). Appreciate you giving it a shot.
Love this
Response from developer
You nailed the exact problem BoomBuster is built for — that thump-thump bass is precisely the frequency range it's tuned to mask, and the airplane-rumble comparison is a good one (similar low-end, similar effect). You're also right on the speaker callout: the bass response is what does the work, so cheap or small speakers just can't move enough air to deliver it fully. A decent stereo or subwoofer-equipped setup is where this really shines. Thanks for the sharp observation — and the review.
Simple and effective
Response from developer
Ten years and "ready to move" to "simple joy at night" is a hell of an arc. SleepPhones plus BoomBuster is a smart pairing too, soft, flat speakers right against your head work well with the binaural side of how this is built. Really glad you stuck around long enough to get the app. Thanks for the loyalty.
Amazing for bass and stomping neighbors
Response from developer
Years of use against a "universal curse" is the kind of review we don't take lightly, glad BoomBuster's been part of your truce with light sleeping. Thanks for sticking with us this long.
