Rain and nature sounds to help you fall asleep, relax and focus. Sleep Maker Rain is a quiet, single-purpose sound app. Open it, press play, and one of eight recordings loops seamlessly for as long as you need it — no sign-up, no paywall, no ads, nothing between you and the sound. EIGHT SOUNDS • Rainy Street — steady rain on pavement • Heavy Rain — a full downpour • Rain on a Tin Roof — close, sheltered rain • Thunderstorm — rain with distant thunder • Ocean Waves — surf rolling in and out • Mountain Stream — running water over stones • Waterfall — deep, constant white noise • Birdsong — a calm morning outdoors SLEEP TIMER THAT FADES Choose how long you want to listen, from a few minutes up to two hours. The volume fades down over the last 30 seconds and playback stops on its own, so nothing ever cuts off mid-sleep and wakes you. PLAYS WITH THE SCREEN OFF Playback keeps going when you lock your phone or switch apps. Play, pause and change sounds from the Lock Screen, Control Center or your headphones — the current sound and its artwork show up there too. THREE ARTWORK THEMES Every sound has its own cover art in three different styles: Vivid, Paintings and Classic. Pick the one you like and the whole app follows it. MADE TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY • Works completely offline — every sound is inside the app • No accounts, no subscriptions • Light, dark or system appearance • iPhone and iPad • A separate in-app volume slider, so ambience level and device volume stay independent PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No analytics, no trackers, no data collection of any kind. Your preferences are stored on your device and deleted with the app. Good for falling asleep, napping, calming a restless night, masking traffic and neighbours, reading, studying, working, meditating or simply slowing down.
