I use to struggle with getting to sleep and my mind was racing then this app came about and it hasn’t had a break since I downloaded it. Every single night without fail it’s on till I wake. I was using this before I had kids and now I use it with my kids also and they love it too. I dread the day this app disappears I wouldn’t be able to live lol ### 2/5 — Nice App. Too expensive. *2026-08-03, version 6.9.10* User interface is very nice. Lots of great rain sounds. No great ocean sounds. Developer did not respond to my request for some. Way too expensive for a simple app. ### 5/5 — Love it! Long Time User ⭐️ *2026-08-01, version 6.9.10* I have been using this app since 2018 (maybe even before). I have turned this app on almost religiously every night. It helps me relax and sleep. I have used this app in multiple situations to help me through it if I might be feeling anxious, stressed or calm. ### 5/5 — Thank you *2026-08-01, version 6.9.10* Thank you for having so many free sounds. ### 5/5 — Lifesaver! *2026-07-31, version 6.9.10* I love this app. It’s easy to use, has great choices for rain and water sounds and helps me relax. I’ve been an insomniac for years and this makes it easy to turn the lights low, listen to soothing sounds and wind down for bed. I leave the App on all night. Our wonderful city is doing night construction while it’s warm and windows are open. This app is saving me again! ### 3/5 — Laughing? *2026-07-31, version 6.9.10* Used this app for a while every night was great up until last night when I could hear a man laughing every now and then throughout it playing? Creeped me out and deleted the app ### 5/5 — So good I can sleep now 😌 morning. *2026-07-29, version 6.9.10* Really good and sleep and if she feels better since I have a lot of sounds ### 5/5 — Good *2026-07-27, version 6.9.10* So good 😊 ### 5/5 — ITS SO GOOD *2026-07-24, version 6.9.10* I would give 1000 billion stars if I could I downloaded this app yesterday at 10pm i was looking for a good app for sleep and this the one. I 💖 this app use it if you want better sleep THANK YOU FOR THIS APP!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2026-07-23, version 6.9.10* Always sleep with this and love how much variety and preference their is ### 4/5 — Great but… *2026-07-23, version 6.9.10* I love rain rain! Literally can’t fall asleep without it! But I don’t like how there are all these awesome sounds that you have to pay for. But I like how you can make different mixes! ### 5/5 — Rain rain *2026-07-21, version 6.9.10* Rain rain is amazing. Every light since I started using it I have been fast asleep in 5 minutes. If you don’t have this app then you haven’t had the deepest most relaxing sleep ever. ### 5/5 — Highly recommend rainrain app *2026-07-18, version 6.9.10* I’ve always had insomnia and misophonia so this helps a lot filtering out unwanted noises when connected to headphones and u can set a time to when it goes off so it doesn’t drain ur battery and you can mix sounds so it’s great I highly recommend this app ### 2/5 — Fade out mutes my phone *2026-07-16, version 6.9.10* I like the sounds and the ability to mix several together and adjust their volumes separately. BUT the fade out mutes my phone so I do t hear my alarm set for 10 minutes later and if I forget to turn my sound up I miss calls & alerts unless I’m close enough to hear the vibrate mode. ### 4/5 — Good, does what you want. Just gotta get past the sales bits *2026-07-15, version 6.9.10* Above ### 2/5 — Used to be good *2026-07-13, version 6.9.10* But ruined by the app developers wanting full subscriptions. It was good when you could just buy single sounds. Now you can't. Anyway in many recordings the microphone of the rain sounds is outside. This means you can hear the drip drop dripping on the wet ground, so is as annoying as a 100 dripping taps close by. If the microphone was inside we'd get that nice sound on the roof rain effect. But the "Rain" app doesn't have that. Which is strange considering that is the sound most people say is what they like i.e. "I like rain hearing on my roof" you never hear people say "I like laying outside listening to rain dripping into puddles" (or onto nearby leaves). For example forest rain would be nice if the background rain was heard spread evenly over thousands of leaves. But instead we hear that being intrusively overridden by louder irregular drops and drips of water splashing into a puddle like surface, that are up to close to the microphone. That's not soothing, that's irritating The good news is there are other more affordable rain apps to try instead. I'll delete this review if I see single sounds are for sale again and the recordings have improved . Bit it's staying here until then ### 5/5 — I love it so much!! *2026-07-07, version 6.9.10* It’s a great app. I even have the subscription for it! It’s so nice and it helps me sleep at night . I do have one suggestion though. I suggest that you please let us choose more sounds at once! The max on a phone is 3 but I feel like it needs more. But that’s just cause I like hearing layers in stuff.. ### 5/5 — The best sound app *2026-07-05, version 6.9.10* I used this in free for several years and eventually got the paid version. I still use it regularly. The outside sounds are fantastic when I’m trying to sleep or get my kids to sleep. The washer, dryer, and clock combo are the absolute best if I’m trying to focus on something important and I either need to give myself a quiet space to focus or I need the noise in my brain to go quiet for a while. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Paywall garbage *2026-07-16, version 6.9.10* Had this app for almost 10 years. Got a new phone and lost all my sounds I previously bought. Reached out to support and they never got back to me. Now you gotta pay monthly. This company will fail and go bankrupt, can’t wait. ### 1/5 — Pmsl *2026-06-28, version 6.9.10* 750 a year ! All your sounds ARE FREE ON YOU TUBE. Don't waste your money ### 1/5 — Good rain but its heavily buggy. *2026-06-21, version 6.9.10* Constsntly turns off when im watching something, volume levels get reset so it blasts in my ears, its weird how it doesnt stay on. would be geeat if it did. ### 1/5 — Ruined by subscription *2026-06-06, version 6.9.10* I had this app years ago, and even paid for an extra premium weather pack. Now the entire thing requires a subscription and I don’t even have access to my paid content. Don’t waste your time, I deleted it. ### 1/5 — Scammers *2026-05-06, version 6.9.10* I subscribed for their “free trial” then canceled it right away so I wouldn’t get charged after it was up and this stupid company charged me $43.28 for a cancelled subscription ### 1/5 — Greedy *2026-04-14, version 6.9.10* If you wanted people to get a good nights rest, you wouldn’t switch a previously free option to a paid subscription. Greedy corporations at their finest. ### 1/5 — No free trial *2026-03-09, version 6.9.10* I have been trying to find a decent app of this type, I selected the 7 day free trial after I reviewed the terms, or thought I had and then I was charged for the first month….. ### 1/5 — No support since 2022 *2026-03-05, version 6.9.10* I bought prior to 2019 (turns out is relevant) but bought all sounds permanently. They stopped honoring and will not return my correspondence. If there are any app devs you should clone this ### 1/5 — Not free- deceptive advertising *2026-02-16, version 6.9.10* I download it because I wanted for one night in a hotel but it’s not free ### 1/5 — Bluetooth car radio override *2025-12-02, version 6.9.10* Every time I jump into my vehicle, your app opens up and plays your white noise. I will close out your app and go back to scrolling through Facebook or Instagram or YouTube watching videos that are connected to my Bluetooth stereo in my vehicle and as soon as I close out that app your app will reopen and start playing your white noise. I will close out your app make a phone call to someone via Bluetooth and as soon as I hang up with them, your app will reopen and start playing your white noise again. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Zavah *2026-08-23, version 6.9.10* I love this rain so much because if I can’t go to sleep I will put this right on night time and this rain is so relaxing so tysm and I think you guys should add a water park one or a beach or a pool or a bathtub or bubbles popping.🩷❤️💤💤💤💤 ### 5/5 — Lavenchy *2026-08-23, version 6.9.10* This is the best app ever!! City rain is my favorite. I use this for going to sleep and also when I don't want to listen to music but need something to my ears. ### 5/5 — Must buy *2026-08-20, version 6.9.10* I’ve had this app for years and years and years, and genuinely it has helped my brain learn to switch off, when I’m trying to sleep Rain Rain allows me to focus on just the simple quietness within the sounds that are being played. Too the developer thank you for making such a wonderful app and the difference it makes to many of our lives. ### 5/5 — SO GOOD *2026-08-16, version 6.9.10* I love this app so much I use it to sleep and it drains out all the other sounds that keep me awake even if you don’t have premium there are so many other sounds you can choose from 5/5 ### 5/5 — Great *2026-08-16, version 6.9.10* I love it help me relax,and have a deep sleep. Even when I can’t fall asleep ### 5/5 — Everything I needed *2026-08-16, version 6.9.10* Love that I can get a premium subscription if I want too, but there is plenty of great features still usable on the free version, I just downloaded this app and I can tell that this will be the only sleep sound app I need! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-08-15, version 6.9.10* Just what I needed ### 5/5 — Great, however, did the 30 day trial of the premium and canceled before deadline still charged me *2026-08-13, version 6.9.10* I have very much enjoyed the app, but felt taken advantage of after doing the 30 day trial of the premium I canceled 15 days in and my credit card was still charged. ### 5/5 — Great for people with trouble sleeping *2026-08-13, version 6.9.10* As someone who has had problems sleeping since I was little I can tell you that this app really works. It especially helps when you have someone else in the room with you. This app includes a way to mix sounds together. There are many sounds to chose from, from fans to whit noise this app has it all! P.s does come with monthly and yearly payments ### 5/5 — Good *2026-08-09, version 6.9.10* The best but make it more cheaper --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
