### 5/5 — Works Great!

*2014-08-13, version 1.1.1*

I suffer from tinnitus due to ear damage experienced as a young child.  I never know when my tinnitus will act up or what will trigger it.  I am happy to have found an app that provides relief whenever and wherever needed.  Well done Sound Oasis!

### 5/5 — Well Done Sound Oasis!

*2014-08-13, version 1.1.1*

Great App! I would highly recommend it!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2014-08-07, version 1.1.1*

This app is fantastic. The sounds make a huge difference for my tinnitus. Well done Sound Oasis! A+

### 5/5 — Best sound therapy app available!!!

*2014-08-07, version 1.1.1*

This app is amazing!!! The sounds and the overall app quality are far superior to the other apps that are available. Do not be fooled into thinking that this app is comparable to those.

### 1/5 — White noise loop recording

*2020-10-28, version 1.2.5*

I purchased this Tinnitus machine and was sadly disappointed to find: I had to pay $6 more for quality sounds. On the $45 machine preloaded for our enjoyment there is a white noise recording with a clear background “cough-cough”, breathing,  typing, a possible low hum of conversation and maybe a door squealing. This is not helpful for a. Relaxation or b. Noise canceling in the proper control center of the brain. I’m pretty disappointed.

### 1/5 — What happened to the brown noise?

*2019-01-19*

I updated and the brown noise is gone! It was the only thing that worked for my tinnitus. I’m so disappointed

### 2/5 — Disappointed with update

*2022-07-25, version 2.0*

Disappointed that the app was free but after the update, almost everything costs money. I’ve been a long time user and had my frequencies and volumes set perfectly, but now it’s not the same.

### 3/5 — App freezes frequently

*2025-03-12, version 2.0.11*

For the past month, the app freezes several times a week. I have to shut my iPhone down and reboot in order for the sounds to play. This does not happen on any other Music app. It’s very annoying!

### 4/5 — Squeaks and rattles.

*2024-05-01, version 2.0.9*

Add the option for us tinnitus vets to add squeaks and rattles at different frequencies to bring back fond memories of the boat.

### 4/5 — Used to love it

*2022-07-21, version 2.0*

So I have severe tinnitus and use your app to fall asleep after I’ve taken my hearing aides out for the night. Thunderstorm was the only one that worked for me. Thank you that it’s been free these years. I have no problem paying for thunderstorm but I can’t find ANYWHERE where it says whether it’s a .99 monthly charge or one time upgrade?? I looked at your website too to ‘learn more’ and it was very frustrating and did not help. (It’s not a good website for elderly people and I’m a retired software programmer. if I’d never heard of you it would not have sold me to download the app because of the lack of information. Hope that helps improve it). I also have to slide the volume almost to the end as it too loud and it takes forever. It’s so close to ‘off’. I have to keep my phone on a certain volume to hear the alarm in the morning and between the two volumes I can’t get it low enough to fall asleep by.

### 5/5 — Small giant

*2026-02-02, version 2.0.11*

It is a work horse. Never fails and has helped me to deal with my tinnitus.

### 5/5 — Tinnitus website

*2025-12-27, version 2.0.11*

Great job on your work and the Help the you give to people with Tinnitus

### 5/5 — Helpful!

*2024-08-02, version 2.0.11*

Several of these free sounds mask or distract from my tinnitus!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-11-20, version 2.0.9*

Very relaxing

### 5/5 — Excellent for tinnitus

*2023-11-05, version 2.0.9*

I discovered these sounds when I was fitted with the SoundOasis machine by the NHS to manage my tinnitus which is very intense. The machine also has pillow loudspeakers. I sleep so much better that I searched for the app in the hope I could play the sounds through my hearing aids during the day. This app is really life-changing for me. It lowers stress levels, creates a very calm atmosphere and cancels my tinnitus. I’m really grateful! ☺️

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2023-05-08, version 2.0.1*

I came across, this little app over a year ago. I’ve been using it whenever my tinutus is intense . It’s a great we app I highly recommend I find instant relief, thank you yous have done amazing creating this one I’d give ten stars but can only give five. 💖

### 5/5 — White noise

*2022-10-13, version 2.0.1*

Ive had tinnitis for 8 months and i fall asleep within 30 minutes. Its been great being able to sleep without the buzzing sound that i hear 24/7
Thanks for this app.

### 5/5 — Highly Appreciated

*2019-04-07, version 1.2.4*

Easy to use and navigate. Especially like the continuous option for play, since I need to keep sounds going all night. Favorite is the fan sound and brown noise. This is an excellent app.

### 5/5 — Why pay more when this app works just as well as the paid one?

*2018-10-02, version 1.1.6*

Please save your money by choosing and downloading this free and useful app that contains no ads. Those who rate the 5 stars on expensive apps are just being uninformed that the best apps are the one that are free and you really don’t need the extras that you’d be paying excessively for.  The apps that are free, but contains  pop up ads are just wasting time, if not, the money.

### 5/5 — Really good

*2017-04-08*

Helps with tinnitus and sleep
