As a Veteran co-owned business, it was imperative to create a program focusing on military Veterans with PTS(D), chronic pain, addiction, and anxiety. Because the Founder experienced several years of trauma, it was imperative to create a program for people, especially children, who experienced any and all kinds of trauma. The following sounds are the top heavily used seven sounds: Sleep sound helps you fall asleep. Use the speaker feature to listen to the sound and fall asleep and stay asleep comfortably. Relax and Realign sound allows you to pause your busy day and gives you that 15-minute break to realign all parts of you, resulting in new inspired, creative ideas. Focus sound is used when concentration on a task is required, especially when there are constant distractions. Pain sound can be used to relax muscles or when in physical pain. It will relax the nervous system and alleviate some pain in your body. Using the headphones or speakers feature, apply the device directly to the area with pain. The Post Traumatic Stress (Disorder) sound can be used by anyone who has experienced trauma of any kind. The RDR Concussion sound is used immediately upon experiencing a concussion, or if having headaches or when reducing the severity of TBI. The Manifest sound opens up the mind and presents you with the vibration to manifest goals and aspirations. The individual will increase self-awareness of the creative ideas to fulfil what you want manifested.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Binaural Mind at every 9 days against Soñata's every 2 months. Soñata's advantage is ratings volume (6 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.5 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
