Here it is: your moment of Zen.
The pentatonic scale is very soothing. I downloaded this app during the pandemic, and I'm glad it is still working and being supported today. In these uncertain and anxious times, it's refreshing to have basic apps that do exactly what they say, and nothing more.
Don’t work
The app doesn’t work on my phone

Great app, but please fix this bug.
Listen to Wikipedia is a great app, I've been using everyday for years as a crude substitute for a lava-lamp because finding a stores that sell a consistent supply of light-bulbs for them can be problematic. But I would like to suggest a few tweaks. The first and biggest is to include the number of edits being done per-minute like on the website and the option to refresh the app instead of having to reboot it everytime it stops making sound. And also I would really appreciate it if you could please fix the most recent bug with the mobile app. While the website is still functioning fine, the mobile app hasn't been making sound since between 02:30 and 03:00 am last night. I would really appreciate it if you address that bug and have it fixed. Other than that, I really love the Listen to Wikipedia app.

Awesome, with a suggestion
Awesome app! I do have a suggestion though: I’m not a fan of how the article title cuts off in a bubble. For example, “ Is it possible you could add a text size adjustment thing in the settings? The native iOS text size thing doesn’t work with it.
Thank you!
Thanks for maintaining your classic app. I thought it was mothballed, and was pleasantly surprised to find you updated it. I really like how you reflect changes in Wikipedia with tones. Happy holidays!
Update
Loved this app but it needs an update to work with a newer ios.
Long time user
I found this program online back in 2012-13ish, and still have it bookmarked but the app is such a great thing!! There are a few thing that are a little wonky, but I still love this app and use it a few times a week. It’s a great tool for when I’m writing papers, great ‘flow-state’ sound.
Lovely but no longer compatible
It's like listening to a wind chime, interesting and abstract. I hope the developer can update it to work on ios 14 & 15.
Needs support on newer devices
I had this on my old phone but now it doesn’t work anymore :(
No longer works
IPadOS 14.5.1 will no longer start this app. In fact I think it has been deleted. When you try to open it from the App Store you get a message that the app is incompatible with the current version of the OS and needs to be updated by its maker. In fact it has been warning me about this for awhile, I just didn’t know which update was going to kill it. So sad! I was just about to show it to someone too. Please update! Thanks!

Calming
This is incredibly calming to have on my headphones while filtering out other noises. The sound is not quite as pleasant as it was when you could stream it through your Internet browser, but that function no longer works. This is a good replacement for now. I turned all of the languages on so that I would get a more vibrant stream of sounds. I would pay for this. It keeps me sane.

Nothing like the web version
When listening to the side by side to the website the instruments in the app sound like a smaller instrument with a higher pitch and less length to the note. Short, quick, pitchy, sporadic and clustered is the best way to describe it.
Great, but
don’t use this to fall asleep to if you use your phone’s alarm to wake up. Your alarm won’t make sound. Good for background noise during the day though.
Great for focusing
I love this idea and the app for “music” that helps me focus.
COOL! support Korean language please.
The app is cool, but I will thank you if you add korean in language list.
No sound
Could not get sound out of the app and was pulling my hair out trying to understand why. Then I realized the ringer volume toggle switch was off. I always keep it off as I make my phone vibrate for calls and no other app has problems playing music or sound with the switch in that position. This needs to be fixed.
Also, the bells sound much more jarring (high pitched?) for some reason than the web based version.

Very cool
Very cool app based on a very cool concept. Would be nice if it worked from the background or lock screen as well though. Not everyone keeps their phone plugged in and leaving the screen on can drain battery pretty quick.
Web version is more soothing
I ADORE the concept of hatnote wikipedia but the app is not soothing as the web version and I'd love it if it kept playing when my phone goes to sleep.
