## What is Flowing ~ Meditation in Nature?

Upgrade your sleep, focus & productivity with Flowing, the third sequel to popular Best of 2014 app Windy.

Imagine you could sleep outside in nature instead and enjoy the sights and sounds of wonderful streams, waterfalls & rivers recorded in psychoacoustic 3D for headphones. As if you were there. And if you felt like it, imagine you could mix in some extra 3D nature sounds such as rain on a tent or birds in the trees around you. Get the great sleep you deserve.

Flowing integrates deeply with my other apps Windy, Sunny and Away and is compatible with Thunderspace and Sleepy Fan. Over 5,000,000 people have enjoyed them so far. Many use them to sleep better, to meditate, or to focus on their work or studies. Some use them to help their kids sleep. And I believe Flowing is a fantastic addition.

Flowing's natural streaming water delivers a versatile white noise ambience that drowns out the noise around you.


≈ Fantastic Audio Quality ≈

All flowing water and nature sounds in Flowing were recorded with a psychoacoustic microphone that captures sound the way you hear. The same principles that work for 3D movies and 3D glasses also work for 3D sound with stereo headphones. All audio is perfectly looped and encoded in AAC for a fantastic listening experience.


≈ Customize ≈

Flowing's fantastic nature sound mixer lets you mix in high-quality nature sounds & music.


≈ Features ≈

+ Six high-quality flowing water scenes in 3D for headphones.
+ Three incredible musical masterpieces by Hollywood's rising star composer David Bawiec.​
+ 3 guided meditations by Australian rising star Lua Lisa.
+ Sleep & meditation timer.
+ Mix in music, rain, rain on tent and birds.
+ Illustrations by the world's best nature illustrator, Marie Beschorner.
+ Motion-controlled 3D parallax sceneries.

### 5/5 — Great sleep app!

*2026-02-13, version 1.4.4*

Always puts me to sleep. Like the ability to customize the mix. One thing to fix would be making it easier to exit the app. The only way out is by clicking on “share” or other apps. That’s clunky. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Trop de pubs

*2025-07-23*

Une fois de temps en temps, la boîte qui a créé cette app en sort une nouvelle. Et pendant toute une période, on se prend des pubs pour cette nouvelle app dans celle-ci. C’est insupportable. 

Edit: et en ce moment, c’est systématique: une pub à chaque fois que je lance, la même à chaque fois que je reviens sur l’app pour l’arrêter. Apparemment, j’ai payé pour avoir un panneau de pub permanent.

**Developer response:** Promouvoir mes nouvelles apps permet de les garder toutes en vie, sans avoir à compter sur des abonnements coûteux comme beaucoup d’autres. Merci pour ta patience — je fais en sorte de rester discret.
