My app time with this is 72 hours a week. Please fix this. PLEASEEEEE ### 3/5 — What's going on *2019-10-17, version 1.2* One of my fave rain apps but I used to use it every night to sleep and now all of a sudden, it minimizes off the screen and you won't be able to keep it maximized. I loved this app but I've tried re-installing it but not fixes this issue. I even tried contacting tech support but it says that the page I'm trying to b get to is not found. ### 3/5 — Force closes *2019-10-03, version 1.2* The app forces closes a lot ### 3/5 — Stopped working with update *2019-09-29, version 1.2* We have used this app every night for a couple years now. With the new update it isn’t working and I’m so sad. It was our favorite. Please fix it! ### 3/5 — Unfortunately *2019-09-26, version 1.2* App stopped working on my iPhone XR. Tried to uninstall and download again app still will not come open. Sad because this is my favorite rain app 👎🏾 ### 3/5 — Easy to use, ads stay too long *2018-12-28, version 1.2* Nice sounds. Easy to layer the options. Ads pop up that seem to never give you an x to cancel them. Had to visit my home screen, then return to the app to see the options again. ### 3/5 — “Hey Siri” *2018-11-15, version 1.2* A lot of these noise apps seem to affect “Hey Siri” and this app is, sadly, no different than the others. ### 4/5 — Lovely, but volume options? *2018-11-12, version 1.2* I love this app, but it conflicts with my alarms. It would be nice to have a volume control in the app to make it louder or softer. Otherwise I love the app. ### 5/5 — Relaxing sounds *2017-03-16, version 1.1* If you need some kind of a sound to relax and sleep well, then this is the perfect app for it. ### 4/5 — In love this app *2017-03-02, version 1.1* This is an awesome app to drowned out background noise and easy to get comfortable and fall asleep to. I only thing I would change would be the ground rain. It sounds like the rain is stopping and starting again. A continuous rain would be great instead of the small space before the rain starts again. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Wish I hadn’t paid for it *2021-01-20, version 3.0* I have used this app for several years. I had ads pop up some, not bad. I paid for the app thinking it would remove the few ads, that was not the case. Now the ads pop up constantly and are hard to close. The developer wants a monthly fee to block the ads. Wish I hadn’t bought it. ### 1/5 — good, but annoying ads *2020-07-07, version 2.2* wish i could purchase so i don’t have to deal with annoying ads. ### 1/5 — This One Is Not Working *2020-02-08, version 2.1* Very Disappointed With This One ### 1/5 — No longer works *2019-11-08, version 1.2* Used to love this! No longer works ### 1/5 — Can’t use *2019-11-05, version 1.2* Don’t you read your reviews? It’s broken. It doesn’t load! It was my favorite. Please fix it. ### 1/5 — Obnoxious ads *2019-05-13, version 1.2* Plays loud, long, obnoxious ads! Completely defeats the purpose of this app. Garbage. ### 2/5 — Can’t open app *2019-10-01, version 1.2* Used to love this app and used it every night. Now whenever I open it, it glitches and doesn’t open or work. It’s been days and I deleted the app, reinstalled it, and restarted my phone. Please fix. ### 2/5 — Stopped working after update *2019-09-30, version 1.2* Please fix! I use this app to sleep every night ### 2/5 — The Loop *2017-04-27, version 1.1* The loop just stops. It's not a continuous rain sound. It just stops and then starts again. For someone like me who listens for sleep it drives me nuts. I just had to turn it off - it's literally no use to me. I gave two stars because it has the best rain sounds out there and specially the one I like the most. I just can't handle the constant interruptions as it loops. It's like nails on a chalk board. I upgraded to the Pro as I hoped it was just the free app that had this loop issue - not the case. Even when I layer the sounds I can still hear when each loop stops and starts. ### 3/5 — Please fix the loop *2022-10-13, version 3.0.4* The rain sound doesn't loop perfectly as I could hear it briefly fade out and in which kind of ruined the experience! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Download now *2021-06-08, version 3.0.4* I love this app I recommend the thunderstorm option for sleeping. ### 5/5 — Would be 5 if not for a change *2021-06-04, version 3.0.3* I’ve had this app for forever, and it has been my favorite rain app of all time. No complicated stuff, just rain. But, as of last night, the rain won’t play when the app is in the background or my phone is turned off. It did this in past just fine and it has helped me fall asleep. I just don’t get why it does this now, as it basically eliminated the need for a timer. Hope this gets resolved soon. ### 5/5 — Best way to fall asleep! *2021-01-21, version 3.0* This app has the best sounds on the App Store by far! And the way I can mix sounds together helps me create the perfect atmosphere every night. I travel a lot so having this app on hand helps me get the rest I need. Thank you developers!! ### 5/5 — Missing Part *2020-05-23, version 2.2* I love this app. One problem I don’t have the Relax Rain on mine. I have deleted the app and reloaded. It’s still not there 🤷‍♀️ ### 5/5 — Simple design. Excellent product. *2020-05-15, version 2.2* The name of the app says it all: Rain Sounds Central. It has 8 different sounds of rain that mimic sounds from a car, forest, thunderstorms, etc. The best part is, you can combine the different sounds create a sound that suits you. My cheat code is: Car Rain + Outside Rain + Soft Rain + Thunderstorm + a good book. Enjoy! ### 5/5 — App crashes *2020-01-29, version 2.1* I use to listen to this every night. Now after iOS update the app won’t open! Please fix this! UPDATE: it’s fixed! Can’t sleep without this! Wonderful customer service! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Great *2019-05-24, version 1.2* This app has given me the best sleep I have ever had in my life I 100000% recommended this!!!!! ### 5/5 — Works for me! *2018-05-10, version 1.2* Have had trouble staying asleep and then going back to sleep. Have used this app for the past 3 nights on Relax Rain while picturing rain on a cabin in the mountains. Happy Sleeper! ### 5/5 — Love this app *2017-12-23, version 1.2* Live the sounds ### 5/5 — very calm *2017-06-01, version 1.1* The sound of rain is very calm. It is recommended for nervous people. Especially when you go to bed, your mind is rested. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
