SimplyNoise - Free White Noise

This app is a lifesaver. I use the brown noise and the rain feature all the time to work in a noisy office and to block the now constant noise of my fellow commuters’ video watching in the subway. I have recently noticed, however, that it does not play well with others. I have tried to use a pomidoro timer app at the same time. They both run, but Simply Noise doesn’t allow the timer beep to play when my time is up. I’ve also noticed that while Simply Noise stops when I get a call, it doesn’t resume when the call is over. It kinda gets stuck. Still, great app.

Lost my old brown noise MP3 a while ago–you’d be surprised at how difficult it is to find a quality file. However, this app goes above and beyond my most hopeful expectations: you can actually customize your own blend of white, pink and brown noise, each playing simultaneously. I never even imagined this being an option. And the sound comes through totally clear and without distortion, even at high percentages and high volume. Simply wonderful for someone such as myself who is an extremely light sleeper. This is one of the only times I have ever bothered to write an app review and it is because I am just that grateful for the quality of what this sound app has to offer. Fantastic.

I recommend simplynoise to almost everyone I talk to who ever has an issue with sleep or unwanted noise or focus. It’s an amazing tool and I use it daily. However, there’s one major issue that has persisted over months and months with the app: when the playback is interrupted by any other app whether it’s a a phone call, an alarm, a video, or anything really, the app will not resume playback until it is force quit and restarted. This is extremely annoying and a behavior not observed in any other app paid or free. I wish the developers would squash this bug once and for all... and maybe deliver on the remaining sound packs that have been “coming soon” for almost as long as those app has existed...

I like this app and I hate this app. I love how it helps me to sleep at night. I love that I can set whatever time it goes off. I HATE THAT I CAN SHUT IT OFF WHEN I DONT WANT TO HEAR IT. I can pause it in a number of ways but I can’t turn it off during the day. I leave my house and get in my var and my phone connects to my car by Bluetooth and I am frightened by LOUD white/brown noise on my radio, I try to listen to a video in my car and SimplyNose usurps the sound track. I turn it off and if I make a phone call, when I hang up my car is aeash I’m LOUD white/brown noise. I thought I could quit it. When I try to listen to music, it starts again and covers the music. The only way I have found to prevent this unwanted SimplyNoise intrusion is to UNINSTALL the app and then REINSTALL it at night when I WANT to hear it. Please make it possible to actually TURN OFF the app when it’s not wanted.

I am so thrilled this app has finally been revitalized!!! I was genuinely worried is wasn’t coming back. Offering access to different frequencies is brilliant! I love the lower frequency; it is incredibly relaxing. I haven’t found another sound app that offers such high quality, high fidelity audio. Best background noise generator in the App Store! UPDATE 5/4/18: I purchased both the SimplyNoise and the SimplyRain app back in 2012 on my iPhone. I just got a new iPad and have downloaded the new SimplyNoise app but it will not allow me to access the SimplyRain feature without paying again. The ‘restore purchases’ option in the app settings has effect. How can I access what I have already paid for?
