Sleepless nights with a crying newborn? Baby Pacifier plays the natural womb sounds babies recognize from birth — gentle white noise that helps your little one settle, fall asleep, and stay asleep. Research suggests babies under three months are comforted by the familiar sounds they heard in the womb. Midwives and hospitals have used these soothing tones since the 1970s to help newborns sleep better. Now you can bring that same calming effect home — anytime, anywhere — without buying an expensive sound machine. WHY PARENTS LOVE BABY PACIFIER Simple, one-tap operation — perfect for tired hands at 3 a.m. Helps your baby drift off to sleep more easily Helps your baby resettle themselves if they wake during the night Soothing for colicky and fussy babies who just can't seem to calm down A more peaceful baby means a few more precious hours of sleep for you TWO MODES — PICK WHAT FITS THE MOMENT Manual Mode Tap play to start the womb sounds whenever you need them. Great for daytime naps, fussy moments, car-seat meltdowns, or to help baby ease into bedtime. Monitoring Mode Set it and rest. Baby Pacifier listens for your baby's cry and automatically plays back the womb sounds for a length of time you choose. If your baby is still crying when the sound stops, the app will start again on its own. You control: Activation sensitivity (so background noise won't trigger it) Playback duration per cycle Volume NATURAL WOMB SOUNDS THAT REALLY WORK For nine months, your baby fell asleep to the steady rhythm of your heartbeat and the soft rush of blood flow. Baby Pacifier recreates that familiar audio environment, helping newborns feel safe and settled in the world outside the womb. White noise also helps soothe colicky babies. It doesn't treat the colic itself, but it gives babies something steady and familiar to focus on — and very often that's enough to stop the crying and bring on sleep. A SMARTER ALTERNATIVE Sound machines are great — but they're often expensive, with limited timer options and no customization. Some parents resort to running the vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, or kitchen tap to soothe a fussy baby. Baby Pacifier gives you all that calming power in your pocket, without burning electricity or wearing out your appliances. BEST USED FROM BIRTH Womb sounds work best when introduced as close to birth as possible, and are typically most effective in the first two months. The earlier you start, the stronger the association — and the easier it becomes to settle your baby with a tap. A NOTE FOR PARENTS Baby Pacifier is not a substitute for attending to your baby. Always check on your baby if crying continues after the app starts playing. Use your judgement to decide when to interact and when to let the app help baby resettle on their own. A well-rested baby is a happier baby — with more energy for play, bonding, and learning. And well-rested parents make the best parents. Let Baby Pacifier help your whole family get the sleep you deserve. Download Baby Pacifier today and turn bedtime into a calmer, gentler routine.

WorkOutDoors is the most advanced and most configurable workout app for the Apple Watch. It's perfect for running, cycling, hiking and any other indoor or outdoor activity. Note: WorkOutDoors requires an Apple Watch Series 4 or later. It is not necessary to have your iPhone with you during a workout. The app uses Apple’s workout system, so all workouts are saved to the Health system. However it also provides many extra features over Apple's app, such as: - a super-smooth vector map that can be shown during a workout; - multiple configurable screens with metrics and graphs from a pool of 800+ data fields; - route files can be imported and used for navigation (including turn by turn directions); - dozens of configurable alerts (e.g. every mile; high heart rate; low pace; off-route etc); - interval schedules can be created using the larger screen of the phone app; - climbs and descents are supported with notifications and on-screen data and graphs; - waypoints can be created, navigated to, and exported; - use shortcuts to associate operations with gestures (e.g. double tap to hear configurable metrics); - compare pace against a target or a previous workout (using metrics and a dot on the map); - show zones for pace and power as well as heart rate (with optional coloured backgrounds); - auto-pause is available for all outdoor activities; - shows GPS and heart rate before starting a workout, so that you can wait for good signals; - configure distance and pace for running / walking to come from Apple’s pedometer or from GPS; - workouts can be exported in FIT / TCX / GPX files, or automatically sent to Strava; - workouts created by the app can be analysed in great depth in the iPhone app. The app also has many more features. The map is a particular highlight. It uses OpenStreetMap, which provides worldwide coverage and includes the trails necessary for outdoor workouts. It also has several features that help you navigate during a workout: - maps can be smoothly panned and zoomed, and can rotate according to the compass; - a breadcrumb trail of your whole route is displayed on the map during the workout; - topographic data can be shown, with configurable contour colours and hill shading; - map-only mode is provided for when you don't want to start a workout and just need a map; - a circular scale is shown when you zoom, making it easy to see the distance to features; - maps can be stored on the watch for use when offline (they are downloaded as required if online); - a red compass points north and a green compass points to the start; - choose a waypoint to see a compass and distance to it in the corner of the map; - you can also navigate to waypoints on the map, such as hospitals, sights, cafes etc. If you load a route from a GPX / TCX / FIT file then navigation is even easier: - your position is shown on an elevation profile of the route; - the remaining distance, time and ascent can also be displayed; - you can get alerted when you go off-route; - when off-route then a compass is shown which points to the nearest part of the route; - if the route contains turn by turn directions then these can be used like a sat nav; - if there are no directions then the app can use “bend detection” to generate them; - the next direction is shown as an icon and distance in the corner of the map; - the map can automatically zoom in when you are approaching a turn; - you can use shake gestures to hear the distance to the next turn or the end of the route; - routes are coloured by gradient: from red for steep uphill to blue for steep downhill; - you can configure what information is displayed during a climb or descent. All this is included for a single one-off payment. No extra in-app purchases or subscriptions are required (although there is a completely optional in-app tip jar which was requested by long-term users). If you own an Apple Watch and do any form of exercise, then WorkOutDoors is the app for you. Give it a go!
