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.

Not a free app

This app is listed as free when you filter in the App Store for free apps. It is not. Upon opening the app, you are immediately trapped in a "choose your paid plan" step and you have to force quit the app to close it.

Free Plan is Useless

If I give them money I might find this useful. As is, in the test it for free version before handing over credit info, it is useless. What I can see suggests that if I did pay up I would need to spend time figuring out on my own what sounds to use and how to configure them for a specific goal. AI told me to junk this app and just to use the built in background sounds in the iPhone and layer over that a soundscape like ocean waves. That seems easier and less frustrating.

Love the ability to create my own mixes

This is a great app for anxiety. It helps keep your environment calm and to your liking. I use it all day every day!

LOVE THIS!!!

Please add more sounds! I’m obsessed!

malware

Upon installation, it immediately prompts for payment. It does not accept any commands other than force quitting.

So good

So thankful for this app. Helps me immensely with my insomnia

Scam

Ask to subscribe right away, the prompt comes with a dialogue box with no option to close. Annoying!!

Useless app after turning to a subscription only app

Bought this app back in 2020 only to realize that 99% of the noise is locked behind a paywall. Do yourself a favor and just buy a white noise machine so you don’t deal with this type of business model.

Çok iyi ya

Kullanıcılar için daha çok sesin kilidi açılmalı bence ve kütüphane de olmalı büyük çapta bir uygulama olmalı. Ama ne yalan söyleyeceğim benim gibi kullanıcılar büyük ihtimalle tek bir sese bağlı kalıyor ve sadece o sesi dinliyor. Mesela ben beyaz gürültüyü çok seviyorum ve ders çalışırken veya odak gerektiren işler yaparken onu dinliyorum. Ama uyurken lullaby açarak uyuyorum. Mükemmel bir uygulama❤️

Yesss

the gray noise is so amazingggg i got this originally for my ADHD bc there’s that one beep sound kinda thing that like completely silences your brain but this app didn’t have it :( still love it for white noise though :D

Dark Noise? Dark Patterns!

Die App zwingt gleich beim Start zum Kauf von Abos - wer nicht zahlt, kann sie nicht nutzen. Dass es sowas 2026 noch gibt … App wird direkt wieder gelöscht.

Nice app, dated sounds

The overall design and execution of the app are nice, however, some of the sounds sound a bit dated (e. g. „Thunderstorm“ with tinny rain sounds, „Heavy Rain“ sounds like it’s been recorded in a car).

So good

So thankful for this app. Helps me immensely with my insomnia

Absurd price, previous purchase not honored

I bought “lifetime”, then they changed to subscription model and removed all features I paid for. Now they are back to “lifetime”. App offers just a few sounds - I’d happily pay small subscription, but I can’t support predatory “lifetime” scam-like behaviour…

It will not delete!

I was looking into this app but when I decided to delete it, it has no option to delete.
