### 1/5 — Video ads

*2022-12-22, version 14.2.0*

Video ads interrupting the rain sounds renders this completely useless

### 1/5 — trash app 🗑

*2021-08-04*

can’t play outside app and has a lot of ads

### 1/5 — Piece of crap

*2021-05-30*

Was working good until they went to subscription based or lifetime. Now it only works when phone is unlocked and it’s on the app the moment your phone goes in screen off mode the sound shuts off. Give my $18 back.

### 5/5 — Horrible

*2020-03-02*

It sounds like Thunder it’s horrible😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

### 1/5 — No sound

*2019-04-14*

No sound

### 3/5 — Rain Sounds

*2019-04-04*

It would be perfect if it didn’t pause when it comes to the end of the loop. Then short pause is enough to disturb the relaxing effect of the rain.

### 5/5 — Sleep ❤️

*2018-10-08*

Ever since I used this add I have slept soooo much better 10/10 ❤️💜👍🏼

### 4/5 — Adds

*2018-08-11*

A lot of adds keep showing up and they keep asking me to rate my experience. Other than that very good app just wish it had a noise detector and start up again if my kid makes noise in the middle of the night.

### 5/5 — Guest

*2018-04-15, version 1.6.3*

Super!

### 4/5 — Generally good, but can hear loop in audio track

*2018-04-06*

Every minute or so there is a change in the audio which sounds like it is looping back over a recorder track. It is slightly distracting. Otherwise the app is great.
