I got the paid version so I could export and save, but there is no way to export to my “Files,” and I can’t find the file to copy it over to Files. I need the tone so I can import it into an audio editor to include verbal suggestions. This file I generated here is simply for brainwave entrainment. I love how simple it is to create the file. It would be nice if I could save it somewhere that I could use it in an audio editor or export the brainwave entrainment file to my phone or other device. I don’t want to ftp anything. I need “export to” so I can save it to files. I would give you 5 stars if I could add that to how simple it is to create the monaural beats track. I can’t very well use the file if I can’t put it in an editor or export to another device. It doesn’t even let me email. It says to set up email in the apps email settings, but there is no field for this. The app sucks without any type of way to export / save files to a specific location on Files or to share it. I would love to have my money back unless you fix that. And if you fix it, I would give it 5 stars. ### 1/5 — Do not buy *2024-11-03* This app shuts down and cannot be restarted immediately after purchase.

I “create” tone and attempt to change the frequency and it won’t allow me to specify the frequency. Using the slider it skips hundreds of Hz and is not precise enough and trying to select the number and enter a new one just doesn’t work. Working from a 2021 iPad Pro. **Developer response:** Hello, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

No storing and naming settings now and there is just a slider that won’t get you the exact frequency that you want. It makes no sense. Can not recommend this now. **Developer response:** Hello! We have forwarded your feedback to our Development Team and they are taking a closer look. If you haven't already, it would be really helpful if you could reach out to our Support team here: https://www.nch.com.au/support/index.html ### 1/5 — Terrible archaic UI *2017-07-18* The UI is just dreadful. I can make tones and save a series but I can't audition individual tones. A simple mute button isn't they hard to implement **Developer response:** Hello, We are sorry you had a disappointing experience. Thank you for your feedback. I will pass along your review to our development team and we will look into potentially changes.

Exporting is limited to email or ftp, which is much more difficult than it should be. There are no obvious support options either. For $5, it's disappointing **Developer response:** Hello, Your review has been forwarded to our Development Team. We are working on a new release that will fix a lot of issues soon.

Your feedback is very important to us. Are there any features or functions that would have created a better experience for you? Please share them directly with our Development Team here: http://www.nch.com.au/suggestions/index.html ### 2/5 — Input needs work *2026-01-25* Unable to manually enter numbers- this is an easy fix. Do better ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfect!! *2024-01-27* Wired up a subwoofer on the top of my book shelf, nearest the ceiling, and I can’t hear my noisy upstairs neighbors that I’ve tried to work with. Can’t beat em, join em. Right? 32Hz sine wave keeps them happy! ### 5/5 — How to use for sleep *2023-04-21* Tone 1: 340 Hz Tone 2: 342 Hz Excellent results! /S/ Dr. John J. Orczyk, PhD ### 5/5 — लव ईंट *2022-10-28* बीइंग आबले तो वर्क विध मल्टिपल टोंज़ इस वेरी यूस्फ़ुल ### 5/5 — Über „Edit“ … *2021-06-08* Sehr schnell Ton und Frequenz ermittelbar ### 5/5 — great quickie frequency tool *2021-01-09* good for audio tinkering ### 5/5 — 10 stars! Very accurate *2016-06-20* I double checked the frequency with a multimeter and it was EXACT!! Beautiful. Highly recommend ### 5/5 — THE BEST *2014-10-28* This is a APP I use every night to lull me to sleep I had a very bad problem with relaxing at bedtime And this has done the trick Or if I get tense during the day just sitting down and listening to the water is so relaxing ( maybe to much HaHa ) ### 2/5 — Looks nice, doesn’t play nice *2025-11-15* The user input is horribly glitchy, I can’t manually input a number nor can I reduce the frequency unless it’s a random 600 something hz jump each time, and can only manually increase it by 0.1hz each time I press the 7 8 9 numbers…backspace doesn’t work either. If they fixed the unusable bugs I would try it again, but this amount of issues seems fishy ### 2/5 — Для детей *2025-01-14* Неудобная глупая программа --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
