### 4/5 — Create your own soundscape

*2017-08-04*

I use it every night.  It smooths over ambient noise, making it easier for me to fall asleep.

### 4/5 — My go-to sleep aid

*2017-07-02*

I use it almost every night to sleep to.  Very useful when traveling for drowning out ambient noises.  I really like the combination of sounds you can create. 
However the sound levels seem to vary greatly from one to the other so getting them balanced takes some familiarity.  Also it seems to reboot itself for no particular reason so about once a week I need to set it up again, but that isn't a big deal.  If it weren't for those 2 things I'd give it 5 stars.

### 5/5 — THE FUTURE

*2014-08-08*

This is a beautiful easy to use app l have on my iPad....now iPhone.... I've made my own soundscapes from the many amazing samples...  Amazing l totally recommend it to all. If you want a chill-out soundscape..this is it. Thanks guys ;-).

### 5/5 — Delivers 110%

*2014-07-20*

By far the best app that gives you exactly what you need. Enough variety to keep me interested for a year now. Would like some fresh sounds but for now this is still my most used app of its kind. Thank you

### 5/5 — A winner

*2014-02-11*

Adaptable, fun, and really effective. layering sounds lets you create whatever you need, and whatever suits your speakers. You can save your creations and try variations, so you can test-run options easily. This app saved my sleep! I tried a few other ones, but they're all really similar and weren't giving me the depth of sound I was looking for. Highly recommend! Also recommend getting some decent speakers to get the full benefit of this app.

### 5/5 — By far the best

*2014-01-07*

The ultimate collection of gentle music and nature sounds combined to create a brilliant atmospheric app. I've have enjoyed relaxing to this app so much that i can't sleep without it now. My all time favourite is the beach combined with a gental fire and the occasional bird.

### 5/5 — Intuitive and fun

*2014-01-07*

I tested several other competitive apps before settling on this one. Glad I did because it's the best. Intuitive and fun. Good for relaxing, meditation, and tinnitus. A good selection of Christopher Lloyd Clarke music on the pro version.

### 5/5 — Stress relief without the meds.

*2013-11-17*

I love this app, it is the perfect source of stress relief; easy to carry around, perfectly legal without having to seek a prescription, and you only have to pay for it once.

### 5/5 — Heavenly!

*2013-09-10*

I jumped into bed and turned on app, with my eyes shut I could imagine lying on the shore edge with the waves lapping at my feet. This app sent me into a peaceful sleep no problem. I would not listen too in the day however if you have trouble sleeping, pop this on and let your imagination take you away. Sounds so relaxing you will drift off. i upgraded from the Lite version and the relaxation it brings, totally worth it.

### 5/5 — Disappointing to read a few bad reports

*2013-06-09*

Brilliant programming, the sounds are just right very soothing, timing a great idea. Works well with the alarm. I'd like to suggest seasonal sounds. Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring.

### 5/5 — Great app that's well executed

*2013-04-15*

This is one of my favourite apps with a good design, quality sounds and beautiful music tracks. I love the individual volume controls. would welcome more updates. Highly recommend.

### 1/5 — Crashes please fix

*2021-10-11*

Was a great app, now not so keeps crashing last up date four years ago, please fix ASAP

### 1/5 — Does not work anymore

*2021-03-27*

Hasn’t worked since iOS 11 or so...

### 1/5 — Problem...

*2020-10-26*

It opens and close down... what is the problem? I do not have what I paid for. Solutions? Anyone?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2020-07-28*

Every time I click on the icon, it shows a brief glance of the app home screen, and then it kicks me out.  Looks like I wasted two bucks and got nothing in return.

DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY !!! 🤬

### 1/5 — ios 13.3

*2019-12-24*

It will not open with IOS13.3

### 1/5 — Why has this app died?

*2019-11-16*

Tap and disappear

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2019-10-04*

App keeps crashing on iOS 13.1.2

### 2/5 — Soothing sounds

*2012-12-02*

Could not work out how to turn it off , followed instructions but nothing happened , did buy the full version I think , in the end I deleted the app to shut it .

### 3/5 — iPhone 11 Pro

*2020-04-26*

I’ve used this app for ages and since upgrading to an iPhone 11 Pro it won’t load. I tried to contact the developer with no luck.

### 3/5 — Please help this to become compatible with iOS devices. I’d like to actually try it.

*2020-04-24*

So I’m sure this app is good and all, but I bought it and it would never come up when I clicked on it. I know $2 doesn’t sound like a lot of money, but it can add up over time if you are looking for true relief from insomnia. The struggle is real, and I don’t want to have to spend money on one app and then another and another to have them crash. (I’m not doing that, by the way as I look for the free ones, but sometimes the paid ones ARE better. So I can see why someone with insomnia would. Anyway please fix this issue with iOS compatibility so I can begin to use the app. I was very excited about this actually.

### 5/5 — Sleep aid

*2021-05-07*

Have had it on IPad for years. Brilliant App. 
(Please upgrade for my new iPhone, I can’t get it to load)

### 5/5 — The best!

*2020-01-04*

This is simply the best application of its kind. The creators made it customizable, so you can combine as many of the sounds as you like, and even set a specific volume and intensity level for each sound individually. The selection of noises is very good, and I appreciate the fact that there is a silence timer feature as well as an alarm. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — TABsec

### 5/5 — Excellent App!

*2015-07-22*

Great soothing sounds perfect for relaxing also as a outside noise blocker after nightshift, put in earphones and off to sleep!

### 5/5 — Changes Everything

*2014-12-18*

I honestly can't speak highly enough of this app. I have recommended it to everyone who talks about their sleep issues. The ability to create so many different scenarios means, after trial and error, I have created environments that have me asleep within a minute and even provide amazing dreams!

### 5/5 — Relaxing "noise"

*2014-10-01*

It works. Simple as that.
