Customer Reviews
Great for sleeping in a noisy environment
Just put on your headphones and sleep in a noisy environment. You can set the time it stops and add an alarm to get you up. Very professional app.
Great for falling asleep
Super relaxing. Definitely a great app if you enjoy listening to different sounds as you lay in bed. The ONLY thing missing is being able able to use the sounds as the alarm. Can't stand being woken up by "roosters" or "bells." Add that feature and it a solid 5 star app.
The mix
I usually have a hard time falling asleep so I downloaded the WhiteNoise app. It was a Hugh help. The upgrade is wonderful I love being able to create my own relaxing sounds.
