It's alright. I love how customizable the sounds are. However- lately it stops running. I'll have it set with no timer (so it should play my sounds all night long until I turn it off), and I wake up in the middle of the night because my sleep sounds aren't going. So I then have to restart the app to get my sounds going again. It's annoying and frustrating because it's counterproductive. This app should help me sleep, but it's the cause of me waking up much earlier than needed

Even with the free options you're able to customize the sounds to your liking. Adding a soft piano to the sound of rain falling on leaves is a perfect combo for myself. Honestly helps me fall asleep much faster than silence. A great option if you're looking for an app to help you fall asleep. 5 stars! And that's just for the free options! What more can I say? Give this app chance!

Very helpful! I have had very little trouble with the app--a couple of times it randomly stopped playing, but not enough to be obtrusive and it's easy to turn back on. I've been using this app every night for a month and I appreciate all the different sliders. It really helps me to find what feels relaxing that night and has helped with drowning out annoying house noises like the hum of appliances

Ok, so I don't leave reviews so this is how happy I am with this app lol. So I had the idea of listening to thunderstorms while listening to horror stories and it worked perfectly. Paired with sound assistant where I can set different volumes for different apps. This was amazing. The sound quality. The gentle tone. It felt like part of the story. I was listening to both while playing sudoku and it was perfect. Thanks for this great app! Can't wait to hear the other sounds!

Wonderful! A very versatile sleep app. The settings are limitless with setting volume and even layering the sounds. The best part? I cannot detect a loop or pattern. Even this morning while playing more with the app sounds, I found backyard rain and added birds While adjusting the volumes, I fell a sleep, so use caution. On top of all this, you can set the built in timer for how long you wish it to play. I chose the usual 8 hours and slept soundly plus the extra 2 ๐

They have plenty of different options as well as the ability to customize. If you click thunderstorms, for example, you can add the sound of rain hitting the window or roof or add the sound of frogs. You can also change how loud the sounds are. Maybe the thunder is 80%, the rain hitting the room is 50%, and rain hitting the window is 20%. Not only that, but there is a timer, so you don't have to worry about your phone dying. Mines at 30 minutes, and I'm always asleep before it turns off!

Good app, love being able to customize the sounds and mix of sounds. I purchased the ad free version and am glad to have done so. One gripe... the thunder sound has a bug where every 30 seconds or so there's a very short burst of static of some kind. I was able to mix the thunder down with crickets and rain and wind up enough to make it significantly less noticeable but it's still there. Hope it's fixed in an update soon. Still... 5 stars and have recommended this app to others.

Editing to say its not a great app anymore. It used to be my favorite rain sound app and worked so much better than all the others I've tried, but recently it has gotten very buggy and keeps cutting in and out and just stopping completely. Like right now, I was relaxed and on the very edge of drifting off, when the app suddenly crashed and derailed that whole thing. Quite jarring. I just want one good sleep noise app that isn't super buggy, but idk if I'll ever find it.

This app is the best free sleep sound I have found. It doesn't quit throughout the night, and it runs in the background when I want it to. I can customize the amount of thunder, rain, and wind that I want to avoid the tinny sound that other storm sound apps have. Overall great for what I need!

I think this app is pretty awesome, I've had it a few days now and use it to go to sleep every night. I like that you can customize the sounds and that you can have it constantly play without shutting off. It doesn't require wifi or internet connection to play and it doesn't interrupt the rain sounds with ad's so that's a bonus, all in all it's worth the download if you don't want to have to use YouTube videos

I've been using this app for over a year, and I love it! It's simple, I can customize the amount of time it runs, and I can customize the sounds! I use it at night and during the day, I use it in the bedroom to calm my dogs anxiety. It took me a minute to figure out how to stop the app with the "X" at the bottom right. Just exiting the app does not shut it off. And I love the windchimes, but for some reason that sound causes the app to randomly stop playing. Otherwise, it's perfect!

Start off by saying the app is very nice, looks good, and works well. What doesn't work well is loud, obnoxious video ads that play sounds of women moaning at full volume when you are trying to change settings at 1:00 in the morning and your partner is already asleep. Very poor choice in advertisement partners. I may still pay the $3 for premium, but because of this glaring flaw I'm going to check out other apps first. I know my $3 doesn't matter to them, but it's the principle.

I love all of the different buttons and things you can things you can add and subtract. I Love the menu of all of sounds that there are. I love that you have a timer that doesn't play all night long. Also NOT TOO MANY ADS!! ๐ And i love that it's not attached to my spotify... So when I'm trying to play music the next morning I don't hear sleepy sounds driving/ getting ready. ^_^

This app is amazing!! The sounds are terrific and blend together wonderfully!! I fall asleep within about 10 minutes, where it used to take me anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours just to fall asleep. All that's needed is to focus on the sounds being played and I'm out like a light in no time!! Thank you for such an amazing app!!

I use Thunder Storm combined with Rain on Leaves, thunder off. I put this combination on in my ear buds when I'm going to sleep, and it's the best. I wake periodically as a habit, and when I'm using this app, my semi-conscious mind thinks it's actually raining out. It's that good. That's why I don't use the thunder features. They're so real sounding that I tend to listen to them like I would music, and I don't sleep as well. As with other reviewers, I can't detect the loop, which is nice.

Alright, first off, I highly recommend buying premium, which is only 3 dollars. It gives you more sounds and doesn't give you ads. The app is so great that I wouldn't want people to hate it just because of the ads, or the bugginess. I am pretty sure the bugginess is just their device. The app has presets, which are amazing if you don't want to customize all the sounds in your own way. And if you do, it is super easy. You can add as many sounds as you like, and ajust the volume of each sound. 5/5

This is pretty good for a free ap. There are plenty of free options that can be customized to your preferences. There are a few sounds locked behind the paid version, but I'd estimate that more than half are free, so chances are you can find something without having to pay. However, if you can't find the right sound with what is available, the paid version is like $5 I think. Which is significantly cheaper than other similar apps I've looked at.

Spotify rain sound playlists have interruptions between tracks, which wake me up. Youtube has ads. If you like falling asleep to the sound of the rain, get this app. The free version has all you need, but I purchased the pro version out of sheer gratitude for how quickly I fall asleep now (and because it was a one time, $4 charge).

It has so many options to set up the perfect sound that you want and different time settings. Love this app I highly recommend this if you need sounds to help you sleep it's amazing, I have tried so many other sound apps but this one is by far the best . It has many options and you can make each sound softer or louder and everything from rain on a tin roof to waves crashing, thunder, crickets, wind, even people talking in the background and farm animal sounds, they definitely thought of it all

The ads aren't too intrusive. It usually doesn't crash randomly. My biggest complaint is you can easily hear even a few of them loop and when they do, there is a static pop sound. Also the audio doesn't stop when you close the app. There also isn't any controls when you swipe down from the top of the screen.
