Amazing app
Definitely get this app. When I need to go to sleep but I can’t it’s great to hear the sounds and is easy to use. I’m a kid and it helps me when I’m angry and calms me down

OSCILLATOR: Customize your experience with the Oscillator, which slowly fades a sound in and out, allowing you to create dynamic, varying soundscapes in concert with the Mixer. You can even adjust how fast the Oscillator changes the volume. When you save a Mix to your Favorites, your Oscillator settings are saved as well, allowing you to save and recall any number of custom soundscapes.
SOFTEN: Adjust the tone of each sound to suit your needs with Soften, which reduces the high frequencies of any sound by an amount you choose. This makes the sound seem as if it is coming from another room or outside, as sometimes you want to sleep with rain outside, not pouring on your head. Soften takes care of any worries about the sound being harsh, tinny, or hissy when played on small speakers or even the built-in iPhone or iPad speakers. Your chosen levels for Soften are stored when you save a Mix to your Favorites to help you create the perfect scenes.

I really love ❤️Rain, Rain!
I can't praise this App enough and I truly don't know what I would do without it! There’s such a great choice of different sounds which rhythmically soothe away disturbing thoughts with natural sounds and suit different moods as I try to get to sleep.They create a feeling of comfort and safety in the night... so what more I could ask of a sleep App?? Thank you for creating it! xx

This App Is Amazing
Wow, I never thought I’d get good sleep with this app. Your missing out if you do not want it. It helps if your meditation and sleep and even stress I love this app so it is truely 5 stars
2022-07-27
Best app for sleep
We have used this App for years now and never even needed to upgrade as there are plenty of free options. I like that it plays all night and I can use it when away as we have it on both our phones. We sometimes mix different sounds but our favourite is original rain sound. It’s very calming and I probably couldn’t sleep without it now.
Recommend!

I’ve used it for years, it’s sent me off to sleep many times. Love it! Especially the function of combining different sounds together to create your perfect relaxing mix
2022-07-09
Amazing!
My friend suggested this to me so i tryed it out .I didnt get the premium version so i cant get that many sounds but it usually takes me 1-2 hours to get to sleep.First time using it was last night , i dont think i have ever fallen asleep so fast. amazing!!!
2022-07-01
Very good
Love it
2022-06-18
Elite
Not much to say but its great, all the things you need are there like fade out timers and there's a range of sounds, not ending at rain: fires, cars and even clothes driers. For some sounds you need to pay for but even then its not overpriced at all. Overall, its a great app and would highly recommend for people who have trouble sleeping in silence or tinitus (cant spell it but you know what i mean).
2022-06-05
Try it your love it
Best app I always have problems trying to sleep but bang this on and I’m away. Been using this app for many of years and will continue to. Wish some premium sounds were free but still an awesome app
2022-05-29
Helps me sleep
I suffer from tinnitus and often have trouble getting to sleep. The calming and distracting sounds definitely help me to fall asleep.

so good
this is such an amazing app please if you struggle to fall asleep (which i did sue to anxiety) this helps so much and is just overall great. I have never had a single issue with this app.
2022-05-23
Really great.
I use this app regularly and it really helps me switch off and gets me to sleep

Rain rain
Rain rain is a very calming app than usual sound apps and not just kids can use it that’s why I give it a 5 star rating everybody can use it for free even though you have to buy some sounds it’s really relaxing.
2022-05-15
Excellent sounds
I love this app. Great sounds and ability to mix and match. Has pulled me off to sleep many times over the years 👍🏽
2022-05-03
Wow The answer to sleep!
I’ve been struggling with getting to sleep for months now and this app has made bedtime so simple. 5/5

Use it every night to get to sleep
I choose a few of the sounds available that I like to drown out my tinnitus. It really helps me get to sleep at night.
2022-04-23
Lots of free sounds but worth paying for some
I can’t sleep at night without this app now, been using it for a year. There are plenty free sounds, but you can purchase some extra sounds too, which i have done, they’re not expensive and if you’re using them every night for years then definitely worth it. You can mix up to 3 sounds at once and you can favourite mixes so you can go back to them. My favourite mix is “ticking clock” and “rain on window” helps my relax into sleep. Another good use I found last summer, when sat in my garden reading, I listened to birds and fountain mix to creat relaxing sunny-feel sound and block out the noisy neighbours who were ruining my chill
2022-04-22

Love the rain
I love this app for the range of sounds and the quality of sounds. Recommend. Also is stayed in the background when you are doing something else. Update: I wish I could buy individual sounds. You used to be able to. I don't want to pay monthly or you should have a choice. Thanks.

Rain
I can sum it up in one word,excellent!
2022-02-25
Amazing!!
I’ve been using this app for a few years now and I don’t know how I ever lived without it!! It has honestly changed my life, I use every day, usually numerous times a day to help me sleep, block other noise whilst I’m working, calm my anxiety and nerves etc. I am so grateful I found this app after trying so many others that just don’t have the same features. I love that you can customise your sounds to find the perfect fit for you, which is amazing as I can be a bit sensitive to certain sounds, so I can adjust them to how ever is comfortable for me. Also the sound will play even if your device is offline which is a good send for flights, car journeys etc. Overall an amazing app, I would recommend to anyone to try!! I’d give it an even higher rating if I could!
2022-01-07
Beat nights sleep ever!!
After sleepless nights and broken sleep I tried the rain app and I love it! It’s so soothing and the free version still has plenty to chose from with one free premium a day! I cannot sleep without it now!
I normally have to have silence to sleep but this is magic! Definitely recommend!!

Best app I could find
This app is great it helps with sleeping problems relaxing issues and if you just genuinely wanna relax this is for you. I highly recommend this for people who suffer from being deprived of sleep or people who need a calm relaxed white noise to clear everything out their heads.

Rain Rain
This Is the best app ever
2021-10-17
Amazing app
I rate this app 5 stars because you can mix the sounds together for an example you can mix crackling fire + forest rain + window rain + thunder and there are so may rain options to choose from and I have realised that I’m having a really hard time trying to sleep and that I can’t concentrate on sleeping,I have something distracting me but when I went on the app and when I turn my lights off and shut my phone off it really helps me to sleep.
2021-10-14
Rain rain
Nice bunch of sound tracks .used to be free gutted we now have to pay to sleep better when sleep it self is free of charge ? 🤷🏼♂️
2021-10-13
Could be without it!!!
I’ve been using this Fantastic app for years & has helped me completely rebuild my sleep pattern. Took a little practice to get used to but when you find your sound I was out like a light. If your looking for something to help you switch off, relax , stop thinking about the daily rubbish & and get to sleep easier this might be just the job.
2021-10-08
Amazing therapy thank you
I have long covid and often experience tinnitus. The sounds really help. They also help me relax and sleep through the night. My favourite is thunderstorm and I like to mix it with the free daily sound. Thank you.
2021-10-07
Lovely App
I have been using this app for a couple of years now and has become my favourite app to help me fall asleep at night. There are so many different sounds to choose from, I especially like the way you can mix 3 different sounds together. I have tried similar apps before but I have always come back to using this app. Love it 🥰
2021-09-23
Brilliant
Top quality sounds, ability to mix sounds, etc; a sleep timer that fades... it's not a cure for my tinnitus and insomnia, but it sure helps me relax and get a good nights sleep.
2021-08-28
Already paid
I paid to buy the app a while ago and now they want a subscription on top of this - absolutely ridiculous
2021-08-18
Used to be better
Now won’t let you listen to any premium
Sounds for free - and you can’t pay for a sound with a one off fee... its a monthly subscription! Joke of an app now
2021-06-28
don't know where i'd be w/o it:)
probably the best app on the app store! i've always struggled with getting to sleep because of anxiety and i genuinely don't know where i'd be without this app:) thank you so much for continuing to develop this app, it's much appreciated and it's by far the most well set out sleep sounds app out there <3

AMAZING
i don’t usually write reviews for stuff but i reply on what others say. i struggle to fall asleep and stay asleep so i put rain noises on and i thought of getting an app i can use with my phone screen off and OH MY GOD YOU CAN USE IT WITH THE SCREEN TURNED OFF AND YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN SOUNDS !!!!!10/10 definitely get if you struggle sleeping

Best app ever
I usually can’t sleep and I have tried so many apps and I’ve been using this app since the bare bones with just a few sounds I use the app every night and sometimes when I need to calm down cant wait to see this app progress even more 😁
2021-03-04
Thanks
Genuinely a life saver, can listen without wifi so in school and stuff. Can lock my phone to save power and still listen and can play 3 sounds at once, it is such a good app design and it helps me sleep so well! i longtime insomniac because bad past and this helps me sleep and helps me stay asleep. Rain, thunder and fire best combination!! Mwah kisses to creator/s
2020-12-04
An easy 5 stars! However...
A fantastic app with clear, professional sound and very easy to use. Brilliant for sleep, relaxation, blocking background noise and many more uses. Well worth 5 stars!
However, I don’t think any new sounds have been added for a
Long time (unless they are only available through subscription). Please add some more!
2020-10-18
This app is a miracle !!!
i'm the type of person to never be able to sleep when my head hits the pillow but i've been using this app for a while and it helps me think positive thoughts at night and puts my mind at ease and helps me rest really well i would totally recommend this to anyone who finds it hard to sleep or relax !!
2020-07-14
Drift away
This is a great app to relax yourself and drift away into a calm space in your mind. I use this for sleep and meditation and I’m able to focus and de-stress much more efficiently. The interface works really well and is very user friendly. Sounds are amazing quality compared to other apps, and you’re able to mix them to get what works best for you.
You can tell this has been created by someone who really cares about their product. Has worked for me and members of my family. Highly recommended.
2020-04-21
Excellent
I originally downloaded this app for myself when a period of stress meant I struggled to switch off, but I am now using it for my baby, who sleeps soundly listening to the rain sounds. I tried many, many similar apps prior to finding this one and none provided the quality and range of sounds as this one. The free sound of the day is also a lovely touch, and I appreciate being able to soften sounds, as well as set a timer. A fantastic app, the best of its kind.
2020-04-16
Perfect
I use this app everyday, I work nights so this app has become something I rely on to sleep during the day.
Another thing I really like about this is that it can be played at the same time as other audio, I don’t know if this was an intended feature but I hope it doesn’t change, I use it in the background of podcasts when I’m in a loud environment and it works great.
2020-03-01
Amazing!
When my baby moved into her own room and her mobile went with her I found I was struggling to get to sleep without the nature sounds playing. I found this app and its the best thing on my phone! Literally fall asleep within minutes now instead of tossing and turning for hours. I also find that it helps relax me when I’m suffering from panic attacks. Amazing app!

Tinnitus - audiologist recommended listening to waves
I have used Forest Rain for years to get to sleep. It gets me to sleep so quickly.
I got tinnitus a few months ago so I have a continuous whiny sound like gas escaping. It never stops and by the evening I feel exhausted. I suddenly realised listening to rain was helping so I now play it during the day.
When my audiologist suggested I listen to a soothing background noise or white noise. I said “like rain?” and she said “perfect” and gave me an information sheet that recommended listening to a recording of waves breaking on a beach. So looks like listening to sounds like this is actually recommended by the medical profession.
2019-11-11
Thanks
At night I always go to sleep after at least two hours after going to bed but ever since I’ve been using this app I fall asleep in about 10 minutes which is a huge difference and if anyone looks at this and thinks that this isn’t true your lying to yourself. I am amazed at the difference this app has made to my life
2019-11-07
Thank you
I wish I didn’t have to use this because tinnitus has taken over my life, but due to an incompetent NHS idiot that inflicted the condition on me, I now use this app and am grateful to the developer, and this app does sometimes help me and I would recommend to other sufferers if you’re looking for an occasional fix from the horrors of tinnitus, especially at night.
2019-11-03
Really recommend
I have always struggled to sleep because of stress and bad anxiety I have tried different apps that either don’t help me or have to pay for a lot of the main settings. This app has really helped me to get a decent night sleep and has really helped settle my anxiety when I have been worked up I really recommend this to everyone who struggles to sleep and struggles with relaxing after having an anxiety attack
2019-10-18
Amazing!
My Dad is always up really late playing computer games, and shouting. This app helps drown out the sound of it, and is also so relaxing. They layout of the app is nice too. The app has a feature where it can stop playing after a while so it’s not on for the whole night. I don’t know what i would do without this amazing app!
2019-09-18
You need this app
I’m pretty sure I’ve been using rain rain for two years now. This app is amazing. Simple to use, free, gorgeous sounds. Thankyou for helping me sleep, before discovering this app I had alot of trouble sleeping, my thoughts would keep me awake at night through to sunrise. Now, however, when I use rain rain I imagine myself in a tent during a thunderstorm out in a forest and boom I’m off to sleep in 5 minutes flat.
I cannot recommend rain rain enough.
2019-09-10
Finally!
I haven’t been able to start a good nights sleep for a long long time due to my mind waking up just as I close my eyes.
Then I found this app. The difference is amazing! I put the fade out timer on for 30 minutes, but I’ve never been awake long enough to notice it switch off!
This is making me feel so relaxed at night that I actually look forward to going to bed and listening to it.
2019-07-31
Blocks out all sounds
I’m a teenager who obviously still lives with her parents. Both my parents are really heavy snorers and I originally downloaded this app to help with sleeping while on holiday however recently the snoring has gotten worse (and I’m just becoming a worse sleeper) and has found this has really helped. It completely blocks out all noises and distractions that disrupt my sleep on the regular. I personally love the sound heavy thunderstorm and I use it virtually every night and it just does wonders for me!
2019-07-01
I just use these apps to relax, not sleep, but…
The quality of this one is leaps and bounds superior to the majority of the rest I’ve tried. Sounds are excellent and mostly clean stereo, professionally produced. The variety is fantastic and plenty for all tastes. The Dev is clearly proud of his work and stands by it with full support if needed. My one quibble is like all other similar apps he went the subscription route rather than one off payment to unlock extra sounds. It hurst seems a bit cheap! That aside, can’t knock this app at all.
2019-05-31
So relaxing 😌
Usually it takes me hours to get to sleep and I always end up being very tired the next day, so I brought this app and it so relaxing! I love how you get to mix sounds and there are so many free ones unlike any other apps I’ve tried, also I love the timer so the sounds fade out when you are asleep! With the new update, you can get 2ps, which mean you can get 2 premium sounds for free and I am so happy with my new sounds, Light Snow and Melting Snow with are super nice and I fell asleep in half an hour.
Though one thing is that buying just 1p costs £1.99 and I hope maybe it could be reduced because for only 1 premium sound that quite a lot, but overall this app is my favourite and I wouldn’t use anything else!
2019-05-28
Amazing
Had this app for about 3/4 years now! I honestly can’t fault it. I struggle so bad with staying asleep through the night and found my therapy with the sound of rain, and if some nights I get too used to one particular sound I can switch it up for something else, there’s SO many different sounds on this app, not just rain and I would recommend this to anyone who struggles with sleep/relaxation.
LOVE IT! 😍💕
2019-05-12
Great app, however...
I just want to say, first off, that this app is incredibly relaxing and helpful for helping you sleep and alleviating stress/anxiety, I really enjoy using the app as it has a super simple interface and it’s very easy to use, I love the fact you can also turn your screen off without the sounds stopping. However, I would love to purchase some of the premium sounds, but I feel like a whole $2 for a single sound is a little expensive. I feel like a price of $0.50-$0.80 would be a more reasonable price considering the fact you only get one sound, or perhaps there could be sales for the premium sound. I feel if the price was lowered I would be buying more sounds in the future. Aside from that, I recommend this app. :) is
2019-02-19
THE best sound app!
Highly highly recommend!!
I downloaded this when my daughter was born to help settle her as white noise didn’t really do the trick and she really loved the winter morning sound.
18 months later I still sleep with it on even though she’s in her own room. The sounds are so immersive and relaxing and the layout is great. I use the app whenever I need to relax as well as every single night to help me sleep.

Tinnitus sufferers godsend
I’ve had very bad tinnitus for over a decade. I’ve been using this app for a few years now, and didn’t realise I hadn't yet reviewed it.
The apps great variety of sounds really help, depending on how bad my tinnitus is on that particular day. If I’ve got three or more noises going, I find mixing some of the Rain Rain noises really drowns it out and gives me something to fix on. Or on a normal day of one or two tones, I find the rain on a tent or in a car to be perfect for sending me off quite quickly. I rarely sleep without it now. A huge thank you to the dev for all the updates. Great work.
2019-01-01
All round good.
I don’t usually leave feedback but seeing that I use this app on a day to day basis I thought I might.
I use rain rain to help me drift to sleep. I like that there is a timer which I usually set for 15 minutes (usually does the job zzzz)
I love that there are different groups ie household noises, birds etc, nature. And that you can mix any noise to create a personalised sound for yourself. I don’t pay to use rain rain so I usually just play the usual rain pouring down etc. Sometimes I’ll mix it up abit, which I can with various others (free ones)
You can listen to one paid noise for free each day but they don’t really vary very much, they seem to be the same old ones? I think that’s the only thing I’d like to point out. Actually also (sorry)..new noises could be updated more regularly??
Anyways.. I’d like to say thank you to the app peeps for helping me get a peaceful nights sleep 😀 keep going with this app, it’s great!

Wonderful
I honestly can’t express my love for this app. Simple, beautiful and helpful - I love it. I listen to Rain Rain before bed, at work or when I need to calm down and disappear from the world for a wee bit. I’ve even started creating my own mixes which is a feature I really enjoy.
It’s so easy to navigate and it caters for everyone - it’s not just rain!
This app is as important to me as Google Maps. It’s a must have.
2018-12-01
Perfect
This app has a huge free selection of sounds with the option of paying for additional ones. The options to mix sounds, have them fade in and out, play continuously or time out are all available with the basic app.
Others I have tried have required in-app purchases to play continuously.
Brilliant for getting baby to sleep!

Always gets me to sleep
I've always had problems getting to sleep, my mother recommended this app to me. I wasn't convinced it would help, having tried so many others, but it has worked so well. I've never gotten to sleep within an hour but this app has done that for me, so thank you so so much! It says you accept suggestions for premium, if so, one with Japan and Cicadas would be lovely!

Highly recommend for soothing sleep!
I have always been a rubbish sleeper - if I’m stressed I find it hard to drop to sleep & most nights I’m awake at several points at intervals throughout the night. So, I have tried various ‘white noises’ which I always find More disturbing! I wake up & heat it buzzing away. But this app is absolutely wonderful, it creates a realistic, cosy, comforting atmosphere which just relaxes you to your core. There are many lovely settings & sounds to choose from (I personally like the ‘car in the rain’ sound - which is mellow & consistent). Very clever gesture that u can mix your own favourite sounds. Or select your favourites. Love that it can either stay on all night, or you can set a dimmer/timer for however long u want. You need flexibility when something is so ‘individual’ a sleep habit - some nights you’ll want it on all night & other, easy, just switch ur standard timer on or easily set it for your desired time. As you can tell, as someone who has trouble with sleep, I LOVE this app! Sleep deprivation sometimes rules my life, that’s why I feel strongly.

My favourite app ever
I have struggled with sleeping for a long time, and I saw this app and thought it might be worth a try. I have been using this app every night for over a year now and I couldn’t do without it. I love that I can have multiple sounds playing at once, and the fade out timer is really useful! I would, and have recommended this to anyone who struggles with sleep, or just wants some nice background sounds.

Amazing!
Hugely helps me fall asleep - I’ve tried multiple similar apps but this is by far my favourite. I really like the range of sounds, and the quality of them is great. I also find it really helps with my anxiety and panic disorder as the sounds are extremely calming, so I use the app all the time! I never knew having sounds in the background would make falling asleep THAT much easier. Brilliant app, thank you so much!

Brilliant
So me personally, I don’t have any medical problems regarding sleep. However I just find it really hard to sleep, as I just keep thinking about what happened that day, school etc. This app I recently downloaded 2 days ago and it is brilliant! I can settle down really easily now, because of the relaxing sounds. In addition, not only does it help with getting to sleep, it helps with stress too! When I get stressed with homework and that, I can just listen to this, and it will make me feel calm! :) Wether or not you have a medical problems regarding sleep or stress problems, this is the perfect app. It works for all ages, even young! Definitely download this app, if you want to feel calm, or need to get to sleep! I certainly recommend this app! Thanks developer, you have solved my problems 😁 :)! Keep it up!

A wonderfully comforting app!!
I have enjoyed soft, repetitive sounds since childhood and experienced ASMR for as long as I can remember. I love to listen the sound of rain and other similarly relaxing sounds, sometimes for sleep but more often just for relaxation and comfort.
This app has provided me with an easy way to listen to these sounds at the touch of a button. If just having high quality sounds weren’t enough, it also has the ability to combine sounds and control the volume of each. To me, this app is the epitome of relaxing sound apps.

What a Joy
I have tried so many of these nature sound apps but have found them false sounding or overly processed. This app is beautifully simply & the sounds so authentic. I have trouble with anxiety & the wind sounds in particular have really helped to soothe me. Thank you so much to the creator of the app, genuinely. Would recommend to anyone who has sleep difficulties or issues with worried thoughts.

It’s not a cure but it sure does help
I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and have suffered with Insomnia since I was a little child. I have tried a ton of different methods to help me concentrate, meditate and sleep but none of them have been overly successful but when I combine them with the free sounds and mixes on this app, I have slept so much better!
- There are some great Premium tracks to listen to but for me, there are enough Free tracks to get you by
- Despite having a Premium feature, the Free access still allows you to use all of the useful features unlike most other apps
- You can lock your screen whilst still playing the soundtrack
- You can make your own overlapping combinations such as Ocean and Seagulls over the Ocean or Forest Rain and Slow Stream
- You can set how long you want the soundtrack to go on for, you may only want an hour, you may want it to stop an hour before your alarm or you may just want to play it all through the night until you wake up, it’s up to you!
I don’t know why more people haven’t used and reviewed this app!

Fantastic, this app is a lifesaver
Have used this for a couple of years and updated with each new version. Great for getting to sleep but also brilliant for managing stress and anxiety, when you need to stop the spiral of negative thinking and get out of your head.
I have also used this app for pain management especially migraines, it’s very effective.
Choice of sounds is really very good and the ability to blend them is a major bonus. I love that I can favourite certain sounds and blends too.
Thank you for this app!

Really helps me to get to sleep! Highly recommended.
My wife and I have been using Rain Rain to help us get to sleep for more than a year. We both work long hours in high pressure jobs and quite frequently getting to sleep is difficult with minds whirling from the day. Good sleep is essential for effective function in the day and this app has definitely proved its worth in calming us when we want to get to sleep and we both regularly fall asleep within minutes of starting the sounds. Rain on a tent is our favourite. I have recommended it to a number of friends who have difficulty in getting to sleep.

Best way to get to sleep
My nephew introduced me to Rain Rain and I have been using it regularly since then. Good boy,
There are a multitude of sounds to choose from to play in the background as you drop off to sleep. It really works for me.
Occasionally I even put it on as background while reading. I find it soothing and it helps stop my mind from wandering while trying to read.

The opposite of disappointing
The purpose of this app is to listen to calming sounds as such. It does exactly that with quite a big variety to choose from. Yes there are some you have to pay for but every day there’s one on preview. Whether it’s the sound of rain on the window , or the cackling of fire , they’re all very calming and it’s very surprising how many different types of rain sounds there are ...I recommend this app it’s amazing and it’s even free !! I listen to it most nights and have found quite a big improvement in my sleeping habits.

Great app
For years I'm having a problem of falling sleep lately.. n when i wake up, i got headache, leg pain.. i feel so weak every morning just bcoz i couldn't have a nice sleep.
I used to take sleeping pills for a while. However, then i couldn't wake up early n affect my day works.
Suddenly, i found this app nd downloaded it just to try although i know i'm going to delete it. But it proved me wrong. Whole night i don't know where i was... the rain sounds like real. Hope it will work the same every night...

Best Sounds App
I use this app anytime I need to calm down or when I want to sleep with a bit of noise- it is great for when you need something to mask the hum of electricity but don't want to listen to music.
I especially enjoy being able to create my own sound combinations, it means I can make my own sound and play it whenever I want! 10/10 would play again

Tinnitus reliever!
This app is brilliant! I have tinnitus and falling asleep was a big problem at first and then I found this app. Forest rain is my favourite although there are so many to choose from. I play at night and my brain focuses on the rain rather than the constant high pitch ringing! I highly recommend to anyone who's suffering with tinnitus. Don't waste your money buying some fancy gadget to minimise the awful noise that is tinnitus, download this app instead!

Best App I Have Ever Purchased
Honestly i'd seen this on the buzz feed facebook page suggesting things to block out sounds (which i hate) so i spontaneously downloaded this app being skeptical thinking it wouldn't be that great but I truly think this is the best purchase I have ever made.
I have 4 favourite mix of sounds which make me feel so relaxed and stress free.
Defiantly going to recommend to my friends.

Best one I've tried!
This app is really great, not only does it have a range of great sounds for free, all perfect for falling asleep to (I sleep easier when I hear the rain outside weirdly), but you can also set a timer to remind you to go to sleep, to stop the music, or to fade out the sound after a certain amount of time. Other apps either play the sound once or you can put it on a loop but then it's playing all night! So I was really pleased with this one.
