Create Your Zen

Read full description

Create your Zen is a sound and picture mixer. Layer calming sounds over beautiful places, and sit with it, work through it, or sleep to it. Pick a few sounds. Birdsong, rainfall, ocean waves, a stream, a quiet cafe, even a ticking wall of clocks. Drag up or down on each one to set its volume, and shape a mix that is exactly right for you. Then choose where you are. A beach, deep space, underwater, falling snow, a neon city at night. Pick more than one and your zen drifts between them. Press play, and everything else fades away. The controls dim, the photo fills the screen, and it is just you and your mix. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Mix multiple ambient sounds, each with its own volume - Set the scene with full screen photographic environments - Save your favourite mixes and name them. Work focus, study, winding down - Listen offline. Once your sounds are on your device, no connection needed - Read gentle quotes while you play, or turn them off - Keep listening with your screen locked, with controls on the lock screen - Add widgets to your home screen, including your saved mixes and a daily quote - Explore the info section for short reads on focus, rest and building calmer habits MADE FOR FOCUS, REST AND EVERYTHING BETWEEN Deep work with rainfall over a snowy forest. Revision with cafe murmur in a city at dusk. Falling asleep to waves on a beach you wish you were on. On a plane, on a train, or somewhere with no signal at all, your zen comes with you. No noise, no clutter, no pressure. Just sound, pictures and a play button. Create your Zen. Take a breath.
