Read full descriptionHide full description
Fall asleep faster without fiddling with loops, alarms, or volume every night. Build a calming white noise mix in seconds, set a sleep timer, and let your bedtime routine run with less effort. SleepMix helps you create a personal sleep sounds routine with a timer, saved presets, and gentle wake options. Shape the sound you actually want to hear. Mix 50+ recorded and generated sounds, adjust each sound with its own slider, and fine-tune the overall level with a master volume that stays the way you left it. The 5-step setup asks about your reason, routine, and room, then previews a starter mix so you are not starting from a blank screen. Saved presets are easy to return to, and you can even open one straight from search. Keep bedtime moving once your mix starts. Set a sleep timer, watch the countdown from the lock screen, and use fade-out to let your white noise taper off gently. Long-press the app icon to resume your last mix, start a 30-minute timer, or jump right to timer settings. If you use a small home screen view, Tonight’s Mix can put your current preset within quick reach. See how your routine is going over the last 7 days. Sleep Insights shows your recent chart, total minutes, longest mix, and top sound right on your device. Curated Soundscapes like Cozy Cabin, Tropical Beach, Mountain Storm, and Library Nights give you ready-made sleep sounds when you do not want to build a mix from scratch. It fits real bedtime moments: - Start Tropical Beach with a sleep timer when you need rain-like sleep sounds without adjusting every slider. - Resume your last white noise mix from the app icon when you are already in bed and want one-tap playback. - Open a saved preset from search when you switch between a fan-style sound machine mix and a softer bedtime sound. - Use Smart Wake Cycle when you want an alarm that aims for a gentler point in your sleep routine. - Turn on Bedtime Reminder to preload a favorite preset and a 30-minute timer before lights out. - Pair dim-while-playing with a bedroom light so the room lowers when your mix begins and returns when it ends. Everything is built around overnight use and staying simple. Your sound levels persist across launches, recent sleep stats stay on your device, and core actions like timer control, preset recall, and starter mix setup are quick to reach when you are tired. Pro adds more ways to settle in and wake up your way: 12 curated Soundscapes, fade-out on the sleep timer, Smart Wake Cycle, Crescendo for gradually raising a selected sound, Bedtime Reminder, and dim-while-playing for a connected bedroom light. You can also preview a locked curated mix for 5 minutes once per day. Notifications are used for wake alarms and bedtime reminders. If you want a white noise app that remembers your mix, keeps your sleep timer close at hand, and gives you useful sleep insights, try SleepMix tonight.
