Full walkthrough of every sound generator, layer behaviors, presets, sleep timer, and shareable mixes — plus when to reach for each one.
How to use
- Pick a preset that matches tonight (Rainy Night Sleep, Brown Deep Sleep, Cozy Fireplace, Thunderstorm, Night Crickets, White Noise Sleep).
- Set the sleep timer (15 / 30 / 60 min). Audio fades to silence at the end so it doesn't wake you.
- Lower the master volume. Most people sleep best between 0.3 and 0.5 — lower than you'd expect while awake.
- Save the mix as a preset so tomorrow night opens the same scene in one tap.
FAQ
What's the best sound for falling asleep?
Brown noise wins for most people because the low-end emphasis is the least fatiguing and masks traffic, neighbours, and HVAC effectively. Rain is a close second if you prefer something that sounds natural.
Should I leave it playing all night?
Either works. The sleep timer fades audio at 15/30/60 minutes which is ideal if you only need help falling asleep. If you wake easily, let it play through — the engine is stable across hours.
Is it safe to play sleep sounds near a baby?
Yes, at low volume. Use a preset under 0.4 master volume and keep the speaker at least 2 m away. See Sleep Sounds for Baby for a nursery-tuned preset.
Why layered sleep sounds work better
A single loop eventually starts to feel like a loop — your brain notices
the seam and wakes up. Layered mixes solve this: random thunder, random
crickets, or a wind gust every 8 seconds mean every minute sounds a
little different, even though each individual layer is simple.
Tried-and-tested mixes
- Rainy Night Sleep — heavy rain + brown noise + distant thunder.
- Brown Deep Sleep — brown noise + a whisper of rain.
- Cozy Fireplace — firewood crackle + wind + random crickets.
- Night Crickets — crickets, frogs, a distant owl, soft wind.
Start under 0.5 master volume. You can always turn it up, but most sleep
mixes only need to be barely audible to do their job.
