I wish there was a way to make a timed play list. I am using these as an aid to improve my sleep. I feel like it would be perfect if I could for example have theta music playing for 20 minutes, then switch to a pure deeper theta for 15 minutes and then change to delta for x amount of minutes and then have it set to turn off. That would be perfect! Please make it so the tracks can be timed and it can be put into a playlist! Currently, there is a “Playlist” option that you can create. But it is pointless, as each frequency either plays “forever” or you can set a timer for it to stop. But if it is set to stop after a certain time, it does Not go to play the next frequency in your playlist. So the playlist is not a list that plays.🫤 ### 2/5 — Good offerings, poor execution *2026-08-17, version 3.6.0* The UI is terrible because if there’s something you’re looking for, you have to sort through vaguely named categories which are featured at different places at different times. You can add things to your favorites but then it’s just a list. I’d love it if you could filter… “I want a nature sound with Alpha beats” and then see what matched. If you can search for sounds I haven’t found the way. Also the AI slop artwork just sets my teeth on edge But! The sounds are good and they do work! This just might not be the forever app for this kind of product for me ### 2/5 — Hidden Paywall *2026-08-17, version 3.6.0* 2 and half minutes of meaningless clicking just to be asked to start paying for something. Typical ### 5/5 — THE BEST! *2026-08-15, version 3.6.0* I’m on my second year subscription. I use a variety of the Moongate sounds throughout the day. Sleep, focus, calm, yoga, you name it, they’ve got it. You can search their library to find your favorites, bookmark them and have easy access. Very simple app too. I the built in timer…. It’s a great application!! ### 5/5 — Holy Smokes *2026-08-15, version 3.6.0* I just slept 11 hours and 4 minutes straight listening to Moongate sleep frequency healing sound. Holy Smokes! What just happened! ### 5/5 — I love it *2026-08-14, version 3.6.0* 🙏 ### 5/5 — Best for sleep *2026-08-13, version 3.6.0* Honestly I’ve used multiple apps for sleep music sounds and I always come back to this one ### 5/5 — Very interesting *2026-08-12, version 3.6.0* Great background noises when your anxious or overwhelmed and need some noise but not have to choose music or anything. Increases day to day flow and focus too. ### 5/5 — Moongate vs frequency generators *2026-08-12, version 3.6.0* Love Moongate! I actually had a “discussion” with ChatGPT about whether it’s worth the money vs frequency generators that I’ve been seeing on FB. ChatGPT was very helpful and at the end of many questions & answers determined that Moongate was the way to go. ### 5/5 — Great Sound App *2026-08-11, version 3.6.0* So many options, regular additions, well organized for finding and saving what you need! ### 5/5 — Accidentally made an amazing purchase *2026-08-11, version 3.6.0* I decided to checkout the Moongate app to see if it would help me focus. I had no intention of paying for it. However, I am so glad that I did. As perimenopause hit my adult ADHD was hitting me harder than ever before. I was having trouble focusing. Now when I work I open the app. When I’m reading I open the app. I also occasionally use it to relax but my main purpose is focus. I recommend this app very highly. ### 5/5 — My exlerience *2026-08-09, version 3.5.1* Really high-quality tones and sounds. If you devote yourself to it, you will travel to faraway places and listen clearly with your mind. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2026-08-09, version 3.5.1* This works! Try it. ### 5/5 — Highly recommended alternative healthcare *2026-08-09, version 3.5.1* Awesome app!! Excellent for relaxing and recentering! Highly recommended ### 5/5 — Absolute Miracle *2026-08-08, version 3.5.1* I’ve tried so many sounds that don’t work. This is different. It is helping me ### 5/5 — Life Changing *2026-08-08, version 3.5.1* Trying to find the right words to describe my feelings about this app is impossible because it’s simply perfect! Well done & hat’s off to the peeps that designed this app. Best subscription I have ever paid for-hands down! I’m a 6’3” athletic wannabe alpha male head case probably late diagnosis add adult , I have had difficulties sleeping since I can remember, overthinking is my gig & yeah I got issues , nuff said - this app has helped me address , improve & restore so many aspects of my mind/body connection. The Sleep selections have given me & my 2 English Golden Retrievers the best sleeping experience we have had in years . They sleep w/me & if I leave Moongate app on w/ sleep sounds all night, we all wake up completely relaxed & rejuvenated. Deep REM sleep w/dreams like I haven’t had since I was a kid . The Relax sounds , OMG! TDF so chill Meditate & Focus do what they say they do! Forever grateful & thankful to th app creators 🙏🏻 ### 5/5 — Great sounds *2026-08-07, version 3.5.1* Diverse sounds for different situations and moods. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesnt work. Shuts off every 20 minutes no matter what I do. *2026-08-20, version 3.6.0* Ive tried trouble shooting but it just keeps shutting off every 20 minutes ### 1/5 — Don’t give them a dime! *2026-08-18, version 3.6.0* I signed up for the 7-day trial. On day 7, they dinged my credit card first thing. I didn’t want the year long and scripting and cancelled. Too late. They have my money and are now running me in circles to get a refund. Horrible customer service practice. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-08-13, version 3.6.0* This stuff didn’t work for me. Too bad. I’m still awake. ### 1/5 — Caused more irritation *2026-08-06, version 3.5.1* I ran across an add for 10 hz alpha waves and i had a reaction to it so i got the app to explore it. That add sound wasn’t listed and most of the offered sounds are ruined by overlaying birds and whatever else. I found that most of the video samples only irritated me. I’m highly intuitive and a natural medium and most of these just triggered aggression or flat irritation in me. They likely effect me in ways a normal human isn’t but still I wish I could get access to what actually triggered a positive response in me. Looks like just another app for me to delete in the first day of looking it over. ### 1/5 — Costs a fortune *2026-08-05, version 3.5.1* First, you’ll never find the sounds that are in the ads. Then even if you cancel, you will get charged for the entire year. $47.99 for noise I will never use. ### 1/5 — Not the real thing *2026-07-31, version 3.5.1* Anything that takes over 5 minutes of questions is a scam…esp when they will be offering me a “special rate” after the first 5 months…no way!!! ### 1/5 — scam *2026-07-31, version 3.5.1* this is a total scam ### 1/5 — Stupid *2026-07-29, version 3.5.1* Rip off ### 1/5 — Not impressed *2026-07-29, version 3.5.1* See for yourself. Wish there was a way to personalize but it’s like 9_20 sounds and that’s it. Just confusing ways to view them. It’s all so confusing. Just give me widgets like an ap with squares and correlating sounds. It’s not hard. Or a circle and a dial to make my own personal sound. Idek what this ap is tying to do ### 1/5 — Greedy *2026-07-27, version 3.5.0* Having to pay for another monthly subscription for something like this is stupid. If it is so helpful for people with anxiety why be greedy and charge. Why not make a free version. Shame on you for profiting off people who are so desperately looking for peace and relaxation ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It surprisingly works well. *2026-08-26, version 3.7.0* I haven’t purchased the subscription just yet but I’m almost convinced to buy the lifetime subscription if it keeps working and I can save up enough money by next month. I put in the 12hz sound wave on my cell phone and woke up feeling I had no anxiety. Anxiety that I had for a year or more and couldn’t get a break. It’s been almost a day now and I feel like this is hopefully a fast and easy solution to my ptsd induced anxiety disorder. ### 5/5 — Absolutely love *2026-08-25, version 3.7.0* I suffer from chronic migraines, anxiety and depression. I absolutely love this app the sounds are so soothing and the people are very nice!!! ### 5/5 — Absolutely love *2026-08-23, version 3.6.0* I absolutely love this app the sounds are so soothing and the people are very nice!!! ### 5/5 — Love the background feature!!! *2026-08-23, version 3.6.0* I love all the different options of music that are available. But the best part about this app is that I can play it in the background of other apps which I have been looking for for years. In particular, I use it when I have a spoken meditation and want some music in the background during and after the meditation. It works beautifully! ### 5/5 — Like wow *2026-08-22, version 3.6.0* Tears of gratitude - this is real ### 5/5 — Great for sleep and work! *2026-08-21, version 3.6.0* I use this app to sleep at night and during the day for work. It has been so helpful! Definitely getting better rest, I totally notice if I forget to turn it on before I fall asleep. And the focus tracks during the day help me lock in and concentrate for work. ### 5/5 — Harmonize! *2026-08-20, version 3.6.0* Man am I relaxed ### 5/5 — Sounds of inner peace *2026-08-19, version 3.6.0* I believe these sounds of inner peace can calm anxiety and heal the heart and restore mindfulness ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-08-16, version 3.6.0* Amazing! ### 5/5 — Ya wanna be at peace? THIS IS HOW. *2026-08-16, version 3.6.0* So perfect. It’s been a year of SO PERFECT. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
