Awesome Value

I like “Spaceship Engine” a lot.

Fantastic sleep aid

I’ve been using this since the good old days and have been grandfathered into premium. It’s an amazing sleep aid for me and I love being able to blend sounds together.

No clue why but airplane noise makes me get to sleep very quickly.

Love this app

Best app 🤌🏻

I love it. There’s a great selection of noises and getting and staying asleep is so much easier. Especially good with noise-cancelling headphones. Best app I’ve ever paid for.

Too expensive

There’s no world in which a noise app should cost anywhere near this much

Prevents closure

The app requires a subscription upon launch. When I tried to close the window, the app refused to close, and I was only able to do so through the System Monitor.
