What's New in WaveSleep
1.3
October 19, 2026
Five new sounds, and a check-in on your wrist. • Five new sounds, all synthesized, none repeating: Grey noise, Deep Drone, and a temple set — Singing Bowl, Temple Bell and Chimes, struck bronze that rings the way bronze does. Hear any of them for ten seconds; Plus plays them all night. • Answer the morning check-in on your Apple Watch — the four moods are on the notification itself, so a tap on the wrist is the whole ritual. • Settings now wears a gear, where you'd look for it. • Fixed: the check-in card no longer asks about a night you've already rated.
