### 5/5 — The best white noise app for my tinnitus

*2023-11-20, version 1.0.2*

I play the crickets 6 sounds every night for 2 weeks with my 4000 kHz high pitched tinnitus and now my tinnitus is less noisy!

### 5/5 — Godsend!

*2023-07-12, version 1.0.2*

To the donor that helped make this app possible and FREE - thank you with my whole heart! I have severe tinnitus and this app helped me match the multi-layered tones and find the perfect background noise to help calm my nervous and limbic systems so I can navigate the intensity more gracefully. This is a 
must have for all of us dealing with the internal fire alarms ♥️

### 5/5 — Beautifully designed app

*2023-03-02, version 1.0.2*

TinnitusPlay App has a simple user-friendly interface on the surface but supports a depth of settings and options tailored to and by the user. Only thing would recommend is easier to access pause or off setting from any point while in use

### 5/5 — This app is a game changer!

*2023-02-16, version 1.0.2*

Not only was I able to actually match my tinnitus for free and do a hearing test, but it uses the clinical research that showed great effectiveness in diminishing tinnitus. I am only on day one but I love it already. My favorite part is being able to actually replicate my exact tinnitus and allowing my spouse hear exactly what i deal with 24/7!!!! Now they completely understand how torturous it it. They lasted less than 5 minutes with my exact tinnitus sound before having to remove the earphones! It is great to finally be able to have a way to have something tangible that they can experience instead of trying to explain!!! Great app!!! FREE! Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Excellent free test and tools

*2022-12-21, version 1.0.2*

A test to help you pinpoint your T frequency and 4 sets of tools to work with it. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Really good app for free

*2022-11-18, version 1.0.2*

It has all needed features, has a clean UI and is 100% free, no ads, no data collection. And you can play the notched noise over your normal music/YouTube/Spotify/whatever. Best app I found.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for and more

*2022-02-18, version 1.0.1*

This is so easy (even fun?) to use and legitimately helpful (for me, at least) that it’s hard to believe it’s free. So glad I found this before paying for another app.

### 5/5 — Nice App

*2021-11-03, version 1.0.1*

Seems to work well just need a variable tone greater to match the frequency of your tinnitus.

### 5/5 — Neuromodulation

*2021-07-30, version 1.0.1*

I have been using this app for years The Neuromodulation side of the app help me to relive my tinnitus I haven’t found any other app that offers this. Thank you

### 5/5 — Many thanks, underrated

*2021-06-16, version 1.0.1*

This app is awesome and it helps me a lot to live with my little imaginary birds around my ears. 
Thanks a lot

### 5/5 — Notched audio is fantastic

*2021-04-17, version 1.0.1*

I’m very happy this app was made so thoughtfully! I have high pitched tinnitus manifesting “somewhere” on my left side and the full-range noise options (aka waterfall) that drop out in the frequency where my ringing is make it almost not noticeable. I love this when going to sleep, or during other times when it’s quiet or I have few distractions. The testing feature is amazing as well to figure out where I sense the ringing. And it works simultaneously with other sound apps to add more layers if you desire. ALL FREE! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Thank you for the relief!!!

*2021-04-04, version 1.0.1*

This is the 4th tinnitus app I’ve tried and the 1st one that’s actually given me some relief from my high frequency hissing 8khz. 
The neuromodulation immediately settled my tinnitus down, it’s really weird. It did come back after I stop listening for lunch but didn’t seem as intrusive. Hopefully the more I listen, the longer it stays away. Fingers crossed anyway. 
Thanks again.

### 5/5 — Great for temporary relief

*2021-01-04, version 1.0.1*

Fantastic little tool to help get some much needed temporary relief of tinnitus. Easy to use, clean and simple interface. Give it a shot!

### 5/5 — The best

*2020-12-19, version 1.0.1*

I have tried many tinnitus apps but this one is by far the best. Plus, astonishingly, it is free. Thanks!

### 5/5 — The best I’ve tried

*2020-12-03*

Thank you very much!!! This App is, by far, the best!!!! Please, continue improving it add new sounds and therapies. You are helping the whole world that are affected by Tinnitus! It would be great to add text info to help people that just got Tinnitus to understand that it’s not the end of their lifes and they will start learning how to manage it (don’t panic!)

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — What happened?

*2026-03-02, version 1.0.2*

Sound no longer works.  This was an amazing app

### 1/5 — No idea how to use this

*2024-04-27, version 1.0.2*

I don’t understand how anyone says this app is intuitive. I don’t understand what it’s for. I don’t understand how to use it and there are no directions anywhere absolutely worthless.

### 1/5 — Modulator

*2020-08-16, version 1.0.1*

Your modulator is off. I checked it against my frontiers device.

### 1/5 — Ugh

*2019-12-22, version 1.0.1*

There is nothing intuitive about this. There are no instructions. If you go to the hearing/tinnitus check page, you get stuck there because once you start goofing around trying to figure out what the heck you're doing, the back button gets greyed out and won't take you back anywhere. You have to uninstall and reinstall it just to get back to the main menu. When I tried it again, it did the same thing. In the process I ramped up my tinnitus by taking their stupid test (probably incorrectly since there are no instructions). There's nothing good about this.  I'm good with computers and I used to test applications. This one could've used a test run by actual users.

### 4/5 — good one

*2025-04-15, version 1.0.2*

but for 2 years no further development. is there anything else to come?

### 4/5 — Works but a little cumbersome

*2024-06-23, version 1.0.2*

This works well but every time you turn your phone off and back on you have to re-do the frequency match to re-set the frequency you need. And the slide bar to set the frequency is small and too close to the numbers so it is difficult to see the frequency as you slide the bar. Good app but could use tweaking to make it easier to use.

### 5/5 — Very helpful!

*2026-03-01, version 1.0.2*

Have tried a lot of Tinnitus relief apps, this one I feel really connects at the audio level, and can quickly reduce the intrusiveness of your tinnitus. Thanks for creating this.

### 5/5 — Best app

*2026-01-28, version 1.0.2*

I use this app all day everyday and it is basically perfect. It’s wild that it’s free and hasn’t changed in years. This is the best tinnitus app and for me the best app.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-12-13, version 1.0.2*

Thank you for making this app. I suffer from tinnitus and I find it helpful. Very very customizable and well designed.

## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Wow

*2025-04-01, version 1.0.2*

The neuromodulation works wonders. It almost gets rid of the high pitched frequencies I hear. It makes them significantly lower in volume for a few minutes. It’s welcome relief.

### 5/5 — Amazing app!!

*2025-02-08, version 1.0.2*

First and foremost, thank you thank you thank you. This app has helped me personally with my struggle with tinnitus.  The neuromodulation feature is incredible! This app rocks. Thank you to the developers!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2025-01-12, version 1.0.2*

This program has changed my life overnight. I have suffered from very loud tinnitus for over 50 years and only obtrusive noise apps offered any help.I bought an air of Apple Earbuds Pro 2 to seek relief but again only obtrusive noise helped. I downloaded this program along with several others but only discovered the Neuromodulation part yesterday. It is incredible. The default setting was 8000 hz which didn’t help. I tried 14000 and it didn’t help. Then I set it at 10000, chose Cycle 1, and my tinnitus disappeared. 
There is no noticeable noise at all, nothing to disrupt the hearing aid function of the earbuds. 
I don’t know that it will last but I will enjoy every moment that my tinnitus is gone. I will probably buy a second pair of Buds so that I can run it all day. 
Thank you for this amazing app and for distributing it for free.

### 5/5 — i thought this was impossible…

*2025-01-10, version 1.0.2*

this is like the only white noise app i’ve found which doesn’t charge for a subscription, i recommend this for people with and without tinnitus

### 5/5 — The best free tinnitus app

*2024-04-27, version 1.0.2*

I can’t believe that they do not charge for this app, it is hands down the best free tinnitus therapy app out there. No adds no time limits just a great well though out app that actually works. 

Although there is no cure for tinnitus you can retrain your brain to ignore it and I know it’s sounds like some sort of magic, it really does work! Be patient and try to follow the instructions and match your tinnitus sound then give your brain time to adjust while you listen to the sounds I like to do it when I read. I also use the timer function and listen to some sound when I go to bed I set the timer for 1 hour and like magic I fall asleep. 

I’m not a doctor just a tinnitus sufferer like you reading reviews and ran across this app. 

Think of this retraining like living in a house with a wind up clock or near train tracks, at some point you no longer notice the clock or the trains going by. I think this works the same way. Remember don’t mask out your tinnitus keep the volume a little lower than your tinnitus sound and give the therapy time. 

For me one day it was magic and my tinnitus was not ruining my life and my brain just started to ignore it, tinnitus is still there but I don’t notice it nearly as much and using the app at bedtime is a game changer. 

If you got this far reading my review thanks for reading.

### 5/5 — It works!

*2024-03-11, version 1.0.2*

The best app for tinnitus, thank you so much! 

Even the clinical references are available. Great work.

### 5/5 — Lovely and free

*2024-03-08, version 1.0.2*

Great app for tinnitus (unlike most others which are just sound makers). You can tailor everything to your liking, unless you’re me of course lol. I have a pulsating tinnitus and can’t quite get things right, but I still find a lot of benefit from this app. Five stars for sure!
