WHO ARE WE ? 
 
We are Livlab, a team of insomniacs, designers, entrepreneurs and sleep experts, whose mission is to improve your sleep. After the success of our first product Dodow, an international bestseller with over 500,000 users worldwide, we decided to tackle more sleep issues from a different angle : with sounds. To assist us on this journey we surrounded ourselves with the best experts (hypnotherapists, sleep doctors, sophrologists and sound designers) with the aim of creating a quality audio experience offering both variety and immersive content to help you fall asleep.
 
 
HOOMBAND 
 
As current audio devices available on the market are not well suited to sleeping (large headphones, and uncomfortable earbuds), we decided to create HoomBand, the most comfortable textile headphones on the market. HoomBand is more than just a pair of headphones, it's your new nightly ritual.

### 4/5 — Good product

*2024-10-18*

It’s good. I have a little bit of trouble with the volume control which has links to your iPhone and in order to get that to work at least reasonably you need to turn off the decibel controls that are in accessibility and various other things. 

It has a lot of nature sounds. I’m not all that interested in the stories but some people love them. 

There is music but it’s sort of on about brain waves honestly I would like some - Joni Mitchell or some other types of really good music that relaxes me and sends me off to sleep, but I haven’t figured that out yet. For all I know, I can use my own music, but I can’t review that cause I haven’t tried it.

Of course I’m new to it so it could be that you could add your own music I have no idea but essentially as a headband and so forth, it’s really a good product and like others I just think they should take a look at the app and make it just a tad more flexible   and yeah, just more flexible that would be great.

### 3/5 — Bought for the band, stayed for the app

*2023-12-01*

I was skeptical at first, but I love this app and have been falling asleep to it for a year now. I’ve tried other ‘fall asleep’ meditations and no luck, but these work for me! Here’s what makes me a fan:

-  solfeggio frequencies layered with stories

- stories are the right amount of boring

- there are stories that don’t focus too much on breath and body scans, which I usually can’t get into, but do include maybe one or two deep breaths in the middle. I still use the body scans occasionally for meditation, but not for sleep. 

- there isn’t too much content. This might seem like a downside, but it might be the accidental secret sauce. Repetition works for me, and it turns out that’s pretty common. Searching for something new and good is not  a good idea before bed. 

- I hate monthly subscriptions and this isn’t one. 

I’m not big into writing reviews, but this app changed my life. I don’t even use the band every time, sometimes I just have my phone volume up. 

Anyway, whatever the reason this odd mix of technically inaccurate, grammatically questionable and occasionally bizarre documentaries and stories puts me to sleep like a tranquilliser when nothing else has worked for 15 years.

### 3/5 — Product is ok, but…

*2023-09-14*

The app doesn’t seem to be uploaded with new content, etc. So it gets repetitive… I’m starting to browse the Internet again to find interesting meditations, immersive stories, etc. With the hoomband, but still, I was expecting more.

### 2/5 — Terrible

*2023-09-08*

App says I am not connected to a network when I clearly am. I have deleted and reinstalled the app and I get the same message. Now it is not loading any stories or content. Screen is blue and blank. Very disappointed.

### 4/5 — Updates more often

*2023-02-21, version 2.2.19*

Please update the app more often. It could be great. It is the only sleep app that has the ability to queue, but the selection of stories is very limited and new tracks take 3-4 months to be released. By this time the stories have been played 20 times, and then it ceases to be effective.

### 1/5 — I can’t use it

*2023-01-29*

I’m on an iPhone 11 and now and when I try to retrieve my code to unlock the app it won’t send me an email, it just keeps loading. Then, when I try to go to any of your websites for help, it says that it cannot connect to the server. Same thing is happening with my mom.

### 4/5 — Hoomband

*2022-11-23, version 2.2.19*

I recommend this if you know people who snore it works well and is easy to set up. This works great for me when I’m traveling. Or when I am having trouble sleeping. The headband is comfortable, and the sound is clear.

### 2/5 — Completely absurd beeps!

*2022-08-05, version 2.2.17*

I’ve had this for a year and use it on and off. The one thing that frustrates me every time is that wherever the app content ends, the band will beep at me! Really! This is supposed to be a sleep device and I keep getting woken up by the band beeping when the content finishes.

**Developer response:** The bip came from the headband when it turned off. It was a default that has been corrected since. 
Your Hoomband has a 2 years warranty so do not hesitate to contact us at support@hoomsleep.com to have it replaced!
We are sorry for this inconvenience.

### 1/5 — Band seems nice. App is total garbage.

*2022-08-05, version 2.2.17*

Set it up yesterday. Today it doesn’t work. Uninstalled reinstalled. Need code. I am on the road code is at home. Won’t let me use my email to recover. Pretty sure I am sending the whole thing back to Amazon. Clearly CNET tested this thing for exactly five minutes. Thanks for nothing.

### 5/5 — I use this every night!

*2022-07-09, version 2.2.15*

I use the app every night! It’s better than a sleeping pill. I would really love to see more content from Bob Taylor and Michelle Hotaling! Those are my favorite narrators by far.
