### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2024-07-09, version 1.0.3*

Very basic with a lot of issues such as repeat button not working and not syncing with iOS properly. It’s a shame because it has a lovely layout but the content is very minimal too.

### 4/5 — Loop function still not working on IPhone 14

*2024-04-19, version 1.0.3*

Love the app, but loop function still not working on iPhone 14… have deleted and redownloaded, but still no success. Any thoughts?

### 5/5 — Great (especially for Reddit users 😉)

*2024-03-06, version 1.0.3*

Shoutout to the developer of this app for having a way for people who don’t want to spend money on a sleep sound app get this. As a broke college student who needs to fix their sleep cycle I really appreciate this app. The green noise is fantastic, I’m going to check out the audiobooks later, I’ll update if there’s anything amazing or not amazing about them! The onboarding is super quick and easy. The first screen when you get in seems a little bare but go over to the discover page and root around. Thanks again for making this!

### 2/5 — No Airplay

*2024-02-13, version 1.0.3*

Can’t airplay to my bedroom HomePod mini, so it’s rather useless unless you just want to listen to the tiny iPhone speakers.

### 1/5 — No possibility to scroll audiobooks

*2024-02-13, version 1.0.3*

I want to continue listening audiobook from the moment I stopped before. But I have to listen over and over again..

### 2/5 — Repeat function fails?

*2024-02-04, version 1.0.3*

Sounds are decent but the repeat function for rain sounds does not work for me. I get the pleasure of 3 min of sound in total before it cuts off. Cannot work out a fix. Not very immersive.

### 1/5 — Too many bugs

*2024-02-04, version 1.0.3*

Sounds randomly stop after a few minutes, even with a timer set for longer periods. 

I can’t find a way to play a single sound scale on a loop, the repeat button doesn’t work. 

Such a shame because it promised so much.

### 5/5 — Greating app 😍😍

*2024-01-31, version 1.0.3*

I really like this app and I look forward to its future development

### 5/5 — Yawn works

*2024-01-25, version 1.0.3*

Simply put - it works!!!!! 😊👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

### 1/5 — Premium lifetime not able to purchase

*2024-01-22, version 1.0.2*

The $59.99 is available but NO lifetime free premium is offered like it says in the app purchase info…
