Sooooo relaxing, like u are really there!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2017-08-07* Just completely adverts ### 1/5 — Chaotic Ad Integration *2017-07-12* Over the past few years, I've used a lot of different apps of this type. This app, however, maybe one of the worst I've used if only for the fact that they interject noisy video ads in the middle of an otherwise peaceful soundscape. ### 1/5 — Can't get the ads to stop *2017-07-10, version 3.1* I couldn't even open the app. The ads just kept glitching my phone. ### 1/5 — Melvin *2016-09-03, version 3.1* Naa!!! There are much better ones than this! ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2016-04-13, version 3.1* The ads won't promote relaxation, but rather destroy it. Do not download. ### 1/5 — Don't download *2016-03-16, version 3.1* Too many ads. The last thing you want is to try to listen to calm rain and then hear a loud add about hotels. ### 1/5 — Landscape mode not available *2015-12-21, version 3.1* App does not offer landscape viewing orientation, so it's useless to me. It's pretty outdated these days to not auto-rotate any app. ### 1/5 — Annoying *2014-10-26, version 2.1* Downloaded this app to get some nice cricket sounds to sleep to. But, whenever you touch the screen, an add pops and takes you to the App Store. It's like playing chicken with your screen. You think the pop up is gone and before you can stop your finger in mid click a new pop up appears. Takes forever with swearing to simply turn crickets on and off. I am deleting it, crickets aren't worth it. ### 1/5 — Not happy ! 😡 *2013-11-06* I only give it 1 star because I can't give none... App has a sleep mode. I try to unlock it. App keeps crashing. Says I've purchased the sleep mode but doesn't open and keeps asking for my Apple ID password.. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2013-10-25* This app doesn't even deserve one star, but unfortunately I have to put something. It opens with a box to buy the full version, then goes straight to Candy Crush Saga. The sounds are nice, once you get around ads and errors and Candy Crush Saga (which by the way, I don't even have installed, but somehow opens after I installed this app). I will be uninstalling this app. Glad I didn't waste my money on the full version! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Review *2024-06-30* I like it.
