Nature Sounds for Android
Even on the quietest setting of the phone (Sony xa) it's still quite loud. It has nice sounds to choose from but not much variety and I can't see if there's a way to make up your own combination yet. However the sounds are nice and the app runs well and doesn't loop which is important! Don't even notice the ads but more control over timer settings needed.
I really enjoy this app alot. I myself find the sound of rain against a window very comforting at night and when i saw that this had that option i downloaded it immediately. I just put my phone on the windowsill and make it loud enough so i can hear it. Best sleep ive had in years. I highly reccomend this app to anybody who is having trouble sleeping. It really helped me out.
Great quality sounds! I think this app could benefit from having the main audio source not be determined by the main volume. I love my nature sounds on the background of other music that I play and can't regulate how loud it is because both sounds get mixed with the main volume. Hope you'd consider looking into this, until then it's just not a 5 for me yet.
I love this app! I love how real the sounds are. The rain sounds like it's actually falling outside my window. I would give this app 5 stars if 1. I could mix different sounds together and 2-permanently set the sleep timer instead of resetting it each night. I know, may be lame my reasons, but I was able to do this with the last sleep sounds app I used and I loved it. The sounds just didn't sound real like this app does! Great job! Thank you!
Brilliant app, I often listen to these wonderfully relaxing sounds if I'm having trouble sleeping and it never fails to send me off into peaceful rest. I love perfect rain and rain on grass. Great that it has a timer facility as well. I would highly recommend this app to anyone who is looking to float away from their day of stress, or to help quieten a busy mind.
I absolutely love everything offered in each sound app you've made but I wanted to ask if you could make some sort of feature to adjust the overall noise. The one I usually go straight to is 'Calming Field' but I like to combine the apps such as the 'Forest at night' In your Forest Sounds but the 'Calming Field' and some other ones are a bit too loud. Other than that I absolutely love all of your sound-based apps! Thanks :)
These recordings are exceptional and the looping is so well mixed that you really dont notice it. (This was the main reason I stopped using Lightning Bug, was I could clearly hear when the loop ended. It drove me nuts and was a definite distraction from the serenity it's supposed to produce.
I love you and I have recommended you to my bf who has sleeping issues as well sometimes. For me I relied on gummy vitamin melatonin for years -- it works wonders and occasionally I will buy it but vitamins are just so expensive. Anyways this app is a calm and free way to wind down. I love it. :) The aesthetic of the app is nice too. Easy to use and pretty.
My favorite feature is the timer. I love that I can set it for 20 minutes, turn my screen off, and go to sleep without draining battery. The fact that you can adjust the volume of additional sounds over the main sound (e.g. the amount of thunder, wind, etc over the main soundscape) is great, too. My only criticism is that there aren't a ton of options to choose from.
I really love this app. Calming Fields is my favourite sound, and I used it nightly to sleep. It really helps my mind shut down from the daily worries. However -- I am a full-time caregiver for my disabled mother and I noticed one night when she phoned me to ask for help with something that the app didn't mute when the call came in, so I couldn't talk to her at all. :( Suggestion -- please put something in that automatically mutes the audio when you receive an incoming phone call. Do that, and I'll happily change my review to 5 stars. I've tried several apps and this was my favourite. Now I can't use it due to the fact it doesn't mute on incoming calls. :( Thanks so much
I have no complaints with this app really. There isn't as many sound choices as some other apps out there, but the sounds themselves are of excellent quality and exactly as you'd hope they'd be. The app design itself is well done and very easy to navigate and to set up.
This app is amazing! I live how loud it it and u can adjust certain sounds like adding thunder to a storm or Segal's to ocean waves. Also it helps me sleep so good and be able to set a timer for it to shut off saves the battery on my phone. 5stars
It's hard for me to sleep in complete silence. I had an alarm clock at one point that would play cricket noises to help me sleep. I've been looking for something for years to replace it after it broke. I'm so happy with all the sounds that come with this app. And I'm so glad I can have my crickets back!
Wonderful nature sounds app with lots of choices such as setting the amount of background noises within a particular sound background. For example, if you are listening to a Rain Sound you can set the desired amount of thunderstorms. We have played some of the sounds all night long to help our baby sleep. Highly recommended!
If it had one more feature it would be perfect. Adding additional sounds. For example, what if I want my "perfect rain" which is fairly well named by the way. Anyway, what if I want my "perfect rain" to also be on an "evening lake" with frogs. Bam! Select that big bubbly plus sign and add "evening lake." 2 more volume sliders pop up for evening lake and frogs. Perfection. I love it as it is. As with all things, there is room for improvement.
I dont ever ever rate things, although I always click the remind me later.. but i am because this app is adored by my newborn who has trouble sleeping. And it's the only one i can handle hours on end. I love that you can adjust the background sound effects but i wish you guys would make it so I could mix and match the scenery noise with the background. The birds terrify her. Still a great app though
I use the thunderstorm every night at bedtime. I love that I can time it to turn off in half an hour so when my husband comes to bed it doesn't bother him. I listen to some of the others (mountain forest and another) while reading and sometimes while getting ready in the morning. They are all enjoyable and calm.
Great app! Could you please improve it to stop playing sounds in situation when you take a phone call. Also why not make a single, full & complete app instead of making several partial apps; merge forest & rain sounds app to this one. It's really redundant to need to install several apps for the same purpose.
Wonderful!! The different choices are amazing and the super plus is the added option to use a secondary sound in each initial sound choice and control its volume! Then the choice of no timer up to an 8 hours timer! Couldn't be happier in my decision to use this app. I highly recommend it to everyone!
It has a selection of sounds and a timer that are perfect for bedtime. I select my sound then hit the 20 min timer and before I know it the white noise has helped me drift off to sleep. Easy to use and easy to adjust different sounds.
I love this app, you just click on the sounds you prefer then it feels as though you are in paradise. I usually put it into practice when I am in a noisy place and I want to read. I Put my head phones on and there is my heaven. Thanks for the App
Simple, intuitive, fun to use. Even my cat figured how to turn on the ocean sound. Which leads me to my one complaint...what you call "seagulls" are CROWS! Please fix and I'll give 5 stars.
I love this app! It has a timer option, put 20 or 30 mins on it and I sleep like a baby ( not the type that wakes up often and cries a lot lol had to be specific)
Everything my meditation app doesn't do...this does. I want to control the ambient sound plus all the little sounds, like thunder, or seagulls, or birds. You can vary the intensity of each sound within a cluster of sounds, ie, campfire, wind, hooting owls, wolf call, etc.
You have a good music app, it would be nice to have a few more choices, but it's simple and easy to relax to at lower levels. I haven't had any problems with the app and doesn't take up much room
This app is perfect for trying to sleep, relax, or boost your mood! Each sound is perfect, they sound realistic, you cant tell when they loop, and u have a choice to add in certain sounds if you wish (e.x. thunder, howling, windchimes, act.) All of the pictures look great as well.
Pros: free, ads are unobtrusive (one of the other apps I tried would play a video ad after a time, ruining any edge towards sleep), good quality sound. Being able to tune an atmosphere with different intensities of music, rain, and thunder is great. Some calmer scenes have birds, frogs, and waves. Set a timer for 20 minutes while you fall asleep. Cons; it would be cool if any of the birds or any flavor of music could be played across the board. Hiccoughs in the rain loop every once in a while.
This app is awesome. I had to find a good app for my son, who is colicy.. one that didn't use any data when we played it. This app is great! You can adjust different settings in each sound. And there are some great sounds to choose from. Not only does this help him sleep better at night... it puts me and my so to sleep right away! Very relaxing. Love it!!
Amazing app. I thoroughly enjoy it. The sounds are crisp and clear. The sound quality is superb. Would you consider adding a cabin during a winter storm. Something along the lines of snow pelting windows or storm shutters, wind, crackling fireplace and wolves? My only complaint is the sounds of the wolves. They just don't sound very life like. As a child I grew up in Wyoming and many summer nights, I could hear a pack of wolves that were stunning. It gave me the feeling of being protected by the pack. Anyway, thank you and regards for your marvelous app.
Relaxing and beautiful. I actually use almost all of the effects on a regular basis. I have one I use for reading, one for sleeping... You can customize each effect, I like more noise at night so I turn up the thunder, or fire, rain, whatever I'm OK listening to. I didn't realize this would become my most used application! Have had zero issues with this app. Thank you to the developers!
This is the best app I've downloaded in a long time. Use it every night! I always drift to sleep on a wave of peace. No glitches or anything else untoward as of yet. I really love the timer on account of not having to stay up and manually turn it off. Recommend! If I could give it 12 stars I would. And so on.
I love it! The sound options are wonderful! I would personally like it if you had more control over the birds in many of them but it is still great! I love the time limits or lack of time limits, if you wish. I use this as white noise to help my 8 week old son sleep all the time.
I really like this app. You can even customize some of the sound effects within each selection. This brings me to the only reason that I didn't give it 5 stars: in the stream setting you can only toggle how fast the stream is running instead of the bird sounds. The birds annoy me a bit. In some of the others you can toggle the secondary effects & not the main. Like with the beach you toggle the amount of birds & in the perfect rain you toggle the amount of thunder. Other than that I love it
Wonderful app together with the forest and the rain sounds apps - not only relaxing but really help with my tinnitus. I love the control of the sounds, so can get it just right. Thank you so much, great job - Absolutely love all 3 apps and use them every night
I dont commonly write reviews, but i felt this one actually deserved it. It's everything you'd look for in a sound machine for you or your baby. Great app, love the control to customize sounds, and ads aren't out of control. Serious A+ here.
The sounds are great and relaxing. It allows you to put a time limit on the sounds so it doesn't drain your battery and there is a good amount of different nature sounds to choose from. The only problem is that the audio, it isn't that loud but that is more my phones problem then anything else
I love falling asleep in a storm, this app helps me do just that, every night! I also really like the timer feature, my the app will shut down after specified time (I usually set it for 20 min, to be sure I've gone to sleep) and then will shut off so my battery isn't being drained. It also features thunder meter so within. The storm categories you can control how loud the thunder is. Absolutely love this app, and use it every night!
I have been having major sleep problems and then somone suggested a sleep app. Wow! My sleep problems are a thing of the past. I listen to this app and leave it on all night and now I get 6 or more hours of sleep every night. Brilliant!
I thought that I would have to download dozens of these apps to find the right mixture of decent sounds, but look no further. This one has em all and you can customize the little details like amount of thunder, campfire, wind, etc. Great app!

A number of water and rain filled soundscapes. Nice to be able to vary the volume of the additional sounds like bird call or thunder. It would nice if there was the option to further combine effects but those provided are various enough. More freedom in choosing its running duration would be welcome addition to but that's just me being picky. It can be used in combination with other apps meaning I can run an alpha wave generator along with it. Good work.
