Notch: Tinnitus Relief Sound

Notch plays sound. That is the whole app. You tell it the pitch you hear, and it plays broadband sound with the band around that pitch removed. The gap is where the name comes from. You listen at a gentle level for a while each day, usually while doing something else. WHAT YOU DO FIRST Notch starts with a range check: which pitches your phone and your headphones can actually play back to you, in the room you are sitting in. It takes a couple of minutes and it is not a hearing test. Then you match. You move through pitches and stop at the one nearest the sound you hear. There is no right answer and nothing is graded. You can redo it whenever you like, and what you measured is never erased behind your back. THE SOUNDS 19 of them, all generated on your phone rather than played from a recording, so nothing loops and nothing repeats. Soft, white and deep hiss. Rain, downpour, distant storm. Ocean, stream, waterfall. Wind, fan, air conditioning, aeroplane cabin, train. Bright hiss, steam and crickets for ringing that sits high. Muffled rustle and low rumble for ringing that sits low. Layer up to three of them and set the level of each one. Slide the balance towards the ear that rings. Set a sleep timer, from ten minutes to eight hours. Your mix is still there tomorrow. NOTCH PLUS The core app is free: the range check, the pitch match, six sounds, the timer, the streak. Notch Plus adds the frequency gap applied to the sound, a second gap for a second tone, all 19 sounds, and the timer up to eight hours. 3 day free trial, then 29.99 USD per year. Cancel any time in your Apple Account settings. PRIVACY No account. No server. No analytics. No ads. Notch makes no network requests at all. Everything you set stays on your iPhone and goes away when you delete the app. IMPORTANT Notch is a sound player. It is not a medical device, it does not diagnose or treat tinnitus or any other condition, and it makes no promise that your ringing will change. It is not a substitute for care from a doctor or audiologist. If your ringing is new, sudden, one sided, or comes with hearing loss, dizziness, or pain, please see a professional. Keep the volume gentle: the sound should sit just under your ringing, never over it.
