turns on even when app is not open

this app used to be good. now not so much. turns on whenever i connect to my car even if the app has not been open in months. super annoying.

So bad 😫

This app literally needs you to pay or else you only have a five minute limit and you can only have restricted sounds so do not buy this app unless you want to pay for the real stuff 😩

Great app when it works

I really like Noise Machine when it’s working properly. The brown noise options are excellent and do a great job helping me fall asleep and stay asleep. The sound quality is great, and the app is simple to use.

My biggest frustration is that it seems to require an internet connection far more often than it should. For an app whose primary function is to play brown noise, white noise, and other sleep sounds, I don’t understand why internet access is necessary. There have been times when I’ve wanted to use it while traveling or during connectivity issues, only to find it doesn’t work reliably.

If the sounds could be stored locally and made available offline, this would easily be a 5-star app. As it stands, it’s a great sleep aid that’s unfortunately too dependent on an internet connection.

Great noise to sleep.

Couldn’t be better

WTH

I’ve paid for this app for a few years and have loved it!! $12.99 for the year, sure! Well worth it. Go to renew my year and find out it’s $8.99 PER MONTH. So disappointed.

Great!

Great!

App Sucks

Worst Fing app. Do not buy this if you are looking for noise app. POS

Default Sound Change

I have used this app for years and love it - to the point I now pay for the subscription. The deep brown noise does something to my brain that I can’t describe.

And to that end, it would be amazing if there was a feature (especially when paying) that one could choose the default sound that the app uses. It remembers I want brown noise, but I have to select deep every time.

Simply the best

This app has legitimately been a game changer for me. I can use it with my AirPods while at the laundromat to be able to read (brown noise for this), while in the grocery store so I don’t experience sensory overload (I have a major sensory overload issue)(brown noise for this), I use it every single night if my life for sleep with my HomePod (pink noise is usually my preference for sleep but I occasionally alternate between green and brown as well), I also have ADHD and use this app a lot just from my phone speaker or with my AirPods when I’m just having trouble concentrating in general but especially if I can’t focus while I’m reading. (Brown noise tends to be my go to for this as well).
I also started using this app when babysitting for my best friend and found that pink noise is a miracle worker for babies nap time and sleep time. That friend now uses pink noise in their babies room every single night and has noticed a significant improvement in the amount of time staying asleep and overall quality of sleep for the baby 🖤

All in all I couldn’t be happier that I paid for this app. I’ve used several different apps and this one seems to create the most consistent, high quality sounds. I highly recommend it to anyone!

I will say, if you’re using it for sleep, I highly recommend a speaker of some sort because phone speakers just don’t quite do the trick for me personally. Although, you could have a totally different experience; I just wanted to put that out there.

App Sucks

Worst Fing app. While I like noises for sleep this app constantly locks up and does not load. Not until I delete it and reinstall does it work. Can’t wait for subscription to run out. POS

App won’t load

Noise is great. But I have to delete and reinstall every three days. Because it won’t work after opening the app. Maybe fix this glitch. It sucks

Memory leak

After a few uses the app takes forever to load, which would seem to indicate memory leak. To get a return to normal functionality I have to uninstall the app from my iPhone and reinstall it.

It’s a peaceful one

Such a good app because it calms my racing world down

Doesn’t load

Every time I go to launch the app, it just spins. I have to swipe up to close the app and then relaunch. Why is that?!?

Paywall

They make you pay for a yearly subscription if you want to listen to more than 5 minutes… bogus. Don’t waste your time with this app

Great app

Great option to help me sleep through the night. I have tinnitus 24/7, so this helps support my sleep quality. The new update needs a new update. I have to open and close, and open it again for it to work properly 😉

Great for traveling!!

I used it this weekend to help me fall asleep while on a trip. I was in a noisy room with teenagers ( my own with their friends ) making noise in the next room. Slept like a baby.

App Sucks

While I like noises for sleep this app constantly locks up and does not load. Not until I delete it and reinstall does it work

Paid App, Still Talking to Ad Networks

Paid for the lifetime unlock in 2019 — but this app still talks to dozens of ad networks in the background.

After ~10–15 minutes of simply playing noise (device locked), it continuously connects to domains like AppLovin, Unity Ads, InMobi, Moloco, TikTok/DoubleClick. This goes well beyond normal analytics and looks like a full ad mediation stack running even when no ads are shown.

I asked the developer; they confirmed paid users don’t see ads, but didn’t address this behavior and didn’t respond to a follow-up.

Is this app a joke?

$9 /week for 4 noises??? Free trial plays an ad and you can only listen for 5 mins? Literally going to the settings of the app played an ad
