You have to constantly hit the play button which is frustrating when you are trying to use it for sleep. I would pay for an upgrade if it meant I did not have to hit the play button ever half an hour. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — AVOID BY ALL MEANS *2026-04-15, version 1.0.3* -Is a scam- ### 1/5 — App *2025-12-21, version 1.0.3* Very little thunderstorm a lot damn rains shut ### 1/5 — Have to paid for everything but one sound *2023-09-11, version 1.0.3* You get one sound for free that it’s not even that relaxing you cant even sample the other sounds before you pay form them who is gonna pay for a different sound if they can’t hear it first? What if they are just a bad as the free one such a carp app had it downloaded all of 5 minutes before deleting plus there isn’t even a sleep timer if I could give it zero stars I would don’t wast your time ### 1/5 — Crap *2020-12-11, version 1.0.3* Just paid for the rain and fire and I can’t even hear the rain only the fire crackling,They should at least give you a sample first ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2020-02-20, version 1.0.3* Your timeghhujdd ### 1/5 — Can’t set timer no provisions made ??? *2019-08-22, version 1.0.3* Can’t set timer ⏱???? No settings available... 😪 ### 1/5 — No sound *2019-01-30, version 1.0.3* Nice video, no sound. Not very useful. I’m not doing it wrong as I can go from app to app and I have sound but as soon as I go to this one, no sound. ### 1/5 — Nothing here *2019-01-28* There is only one sound and none function, even timer. Nothing ! ### 2/5 — Sounds turn off *2022-10-17, version 1.0.3* The sounds automatically turn off after a period of time. This is very disappointing because I really like the rain sound. But the rain sound will stop playing after a period of time while the phone screen is turned off. App developer should fix this issue. ### 2/5 — Sound cuts off after an hour *2020-04-18, version 1.0.3* A very basic app, has good videos but the sound cuts off after an hour and there’s no settings to fix a preference on time. Not worth the money, I deleted it and found one that plays all night. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2024-04-29, version 1.0.3* I can sleep again. Also soothes my baby. ### 5/5 — Look man, it’s worth it. *2023-05-22, version 1.0.3* I know. You can get these sounds on YouTube for free. But like, maybe your somewhere without service or Wi-Fi? Or maybe you want to zonk out to an audio book to a few different rain variants with 0 hassle? If you need noise when you sleep, it’s an absolutely essential safety net. ### 5/5 — Rain sounds *2023-01-13, version 1.0.3* This app is very relaxing. It’s better to hear relaxing sounds, to drift me off to sleep, than OTC medication or prescribed meds. Glad I found this app.. VM ### 5/5 — Awesome *2022-12-20, version 1.0.3* I will recommend it to anyone. ### 5/5 — HAS ME ASLEEP IN 2 seconds *2022-03-04, version 1.0.3* Best app ever ### 5/5 — This is soo good to sleep Whith *2022-02-26, version 1.0.3* Yesterday I put this on and it made me sleep good then today I putted it on and it actually went down by it’s self so I left and then It went good then I putted it on then I slept it was great👰🏻‍♀️ ### 5/5 — Rain Sounds *2022-01-28, version 1.0.3* So refreshing in the morning and relaxing at night😊 ### 5/5 — Calm *2018-06-29, version 1.0.3* Just what you need ### 4/5 — Wonderful helps with rest *2019-12-02, version 1.0.3* I love this app it gives me peace and helps me rest on stressful nights. I let my daughter listen to it and she likes it as long as it’s not the one containing thunder. There are several versions of rain which is great for a free app. ### 3/5 — Unlock *2019-05-27, version 1.0.3* Great Gentle Rain sound but there are plenty of other apps with many free sounds - no need to unlock or purchase them. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
