neur0tide is a calm, minimal brainwave support app for iPhone. It generates binaural beats in real time: no bundled audio files, no account, and no internet connection. FOUR WAVES • Focus — beta-range support for deep work and momentum • Memory — alpha-beta support for study and recall • Relax — alpha support for decompression • Sleep — low theta/delta support for winding down at night SMART SUGGESTIONS The app suggests a wave based on time of day. Switch anytime from the main screen or browse all four waves in the library. BUILT FOR HEADPHONES neur0tide is designed for wired or Bluetooth headphones. Lock your phone and use the Lock Screen controls to pause, resume, or stop. Optional session durations: open-ended, 10, 20, or 30 minutes. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No analytics, no ads, no tracking, and no data collection. Preferences and optional post-session feedback stay on your device only. SAFETY FIRST Before your first session, you’ll see a safety disclaimer with headphone and wellness guidance. neur0tide is a general wellness app — not a medical device. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, prevent, or monitor any disease or medical condition. If you have epilepsy, seizures, serious mental-health concerns, a neurological condition, or implanted medical devices, consult a clinician before using rhythmic audio stimulation.
