Sleep Sounds - Relax Music

I've been using some type of ambient sounds to get sleep or pain relief for a long time. But I find I need high quality sounds well-crafted for it to work. This app has that. Found it a week ago; works well! Looks nice too. Good selection, no glitches, small footprint. My only reservation is they want a subscription, only a small price, but I'd rather buy. So I'm thinking on that.

This is a very nice app! It has many different sounds and music selections to choose from. You can also combine different ones to your choosing and control the volume of each one individually. I might suggest that they add a waterfall sound to their selections. I also wish they would organize the sound menu a little better (list all of the rain sounds together, all of the animal sounds together etc, regardless of weather or not they are premium level selections), otherwise excellent!

What a great free app. I love that you can add up to 8 or so various realistic extra sounds to whatever floats your boat and then adjust each one to suit your needs. I prefer the Spring Rain with Thunder and Lightning plus a few other noises that really make this app great. You can customize the time as well. The free version comes with an ad pitch every night but it it easy to back out and go right to your saved choice. It covers background noise perfectly and really does sound like a storm.

Great app, minimal ads that aren't irritating. There are ways to customize the sounds you want and you can get additional sounds and remove ads if you upgrade to pro. I have not done that I am pretty happy with the free version. There are timers that you can set and you can also adjust the individual sounds like an equalizer. Highly recommend as I'm getting used to using it every night.

Lots of sound options you can mix together. Preset mixes that you can customize - lower the volume of wind, increase rain & piano, etc. A timer for how long to play the sound. All sounds can be unlocked by either paying to get all or watching an ad to get individual sounds. Sounds you've downloaded are available offline so you can listen on a plane. Sounds continue while screen is locked so doesn't drain battery. Really good quality app with attention to detail.

I use this a lot it improves the quality of my sleep and life. Very customizable and straightforward at the same time. I fall asleep faster and it helps me recover from pesky interuptions. ♡ I have multiple sleeping disorders and two years later I'm still loving this ap. My new Motorola phone doesn't do it justice though, it messes up the bass/treble balance horribly and adds static. MOTO users be aware. * Moto updates interfere even more. It's glitching and failing. Hate the phone not the app.

Love the variety of free sounds. And the ability to customize timer to last all night. My only complaint was that it turn off before being completed at one point. I don't know if it was because I had my phone plugged in and it had reached full charge that it turned it off. Otherwise I'm grateful to have found this app. Since reviewing this originally, I have found an issue with the app. Every few mornings it will not shut down. The only way to get it to stop is shut phone off or simply reinstall

I've used for one night so far in exchange for the Alexa Sleep Jar service that's now become glitchy. This was a peaceful loop. I like being able to control the addition of subtraction of distractions like birds. I set it up to play for 8 hours which is super helpful. You will have to watch an ad for the free service, but for 8 hours of uninterupred service, this is fantastic. It did shut off about an hour in, but my internet could be a little glitchy, clicked continue and everything was fine.

This app changed everything for me for the past year. I have sever insomnia and my medicine doesn't always help with it. I chose to pay for premium BUT you really don't have too. About half of the 50 or so sounds are free, and the rest can be PERMANENTLY unlocked with a short add. There are pre-set sound themes that can still be adjusted from with-in, as well at the ability to make completely custom ones. you can have a sleep timer, and once it hits the time limit it fades rather then abruptly stopping. If you like falling asleep to rain or thunder, there's no noticeable looping from those sounds. The app is smooth, simple, and easy to use. You could use it for a babies lullaby, or your own relaxant. If you chose to do premium it's only $10.00 a YEAR, but seriously, you don't need it to enjoy most of it's features. If you do end up getting premium, it's also very easy to cancel it.

I would really like to give this app a better rating, but it is just has some issues. I'm a disabled veteran with a bad case of tinnitus. I started sleeping with a sound generator to help drown out the ringing during the quiet hours at night. This app while on the surface is amazing has problems that at this point have driven me to uninstall. Mainly regardless of how long of a timer you set, even if timer is turned off, app will frequently shutt off change sounds after random intervals.

I've used this app for years, and it is very relaxing and helps with sleep. However the app is glitchy. I have it unrestricted so it should not have problems with background system etc. It worked well for years, until a couple months ago. Now, the app decides to randomly pause or even randomly change the sound in the middle of the night! It is so annoying! I always choose a rain sound (and time is set longer than i sleep) but it changes in middle of the night to Laundry or some music. Not cool.

Where has this been all my life! I've had insomnia for 44 years. I came across an ad for another app I was going to try, but Sleep Sounds was suggested with better ratings so I tried it instead. I chose the airplane since I ALWAYS dose off immediately on the plane. I love that you can add on extra sounds! I added light rain and thunder. I felt calm right away and kept it on through the night. I usually sleep with the TV on. Nolonger. Can't wait to to try more sounds and will probably upgrade!

Tried to use this but the few free sounds available would only run for 10 seconds, then stop. Setting the timer did nothing. 10 seconds of sound. What the heck. I uninstalled it. Update: I discovered what the issue was. I paired my phone with a Bluetooth speaker so that I could hear the sounds better as I'm hearing impaired and for some reason, that was stopping the sounds after 10 seconds. I have no idea why. I'm changing my review to reflect that.

Flexible and customizable. Would be nearly perfect if it didn't shut off randomly over night. Even with the timer set for 12 hours, it will just stop. When I first got the app, it was absolutely my phone settings interfering with the app. But my settings now allow it to run all night. The random shutting off isn't a nightly occurrence, though when it happens, it's often 2 or 3 times before it stays active.

This app has become a wonderful part of my nighttime routine. It is customizable, includes a timer, has many sounds to pick and choose from, and anything that might be behind a pay wall can be accessed by watching a short (<5 second), SILENT ad. I fall asleep faster, and anyone with an ear for ASMR will appreciate the variety of colored noises to pick from.

I love sleep sounds, honest review I am a trucker and the sounds help drowned out the sounds of other trucks and equipment. I have learned that 3 or more sounds work best and try to focus on one of the three. By doing so is almost hypnotic and puts me to sleep. I set the sleep timer and when the sounds stop I wake up. Or I know it's time to be up. Really an awesome thing to sleep to and have used this app for several years highly recommend. And fyi give it time and try to focus on one sound.

Gives you options for time, either have a timer or don't, and it works with the screen off which is super awesome so you can run it all night with the screen off or put a timer. They do charge for some of the nice sleep sounds but the free ones are good enough for me :) and very important no ads, which would be weird, sleeping and outta nowhere some random ad lmbo but thankfully that doesn't happen!!!
