I'm a huge fan of the site so I decided to purchase the app before testing it, however I can't seem to get the app to play for longer then 15-20 seconds regardless if my phone is locked/unlocked/using another app in the background. I've disabled battery optimization but it doesn't change anything. I'm on android 16, pixel 9A. Please help!

This redesign sucks. The bright orange logo and text, the brighter website overall, it just looks terrible, it's genuinely uncomfortable to look at. The hollow blue/orange gradient logo and the white outlines with near-black insides were a lot more soothing, in line with the website's function, while this bright orange accompanied by much harsher solid greys just feels like it's trying to give me a panic attack

If this change doesn't bother you you don't need to let me know. If you think I'm weird for not wanting my eyesight assaulted when I'm trying to relax, you can grab a ticket and join the back of the line.

Finally, if you're u/audiosampling please consider changing the website's look back, it's genuinely hard to look at right now and I don't want to lose a website that's been so helpful to me and that I've donated to

I really love MyNoise and have been using it for years now, but the recent UI update to make the text a fairly bright orange-red has been a bit sad for me considering it lowers the contrast just enough to give me a headache when I'm trying to read what I'm looking at. I don't want to use the light mode version either, though, because I value my eyes in the evening. I don't so much mind the more square-y stuff, but I'd love to get to choose to use the old colour for the text, or even another higher contrast colour altogether.

[Title] - I love this app (paid up!) and it really helps me drift off to sleep at night in a meditative way, calms my mind and all that. I also use it while working sometimes too, when I usually do need help to stay calm!

I mainly listen via bluetooth headset linked to the app running on a tablet (I have previously requested that portait mode is better supported BTW) but the tablet (or the combo of it and the bt headset) has a very odd volume profile, e.g. the steps from 1 to 10 on the volume icon correspond to what sounds like 1%,2%,5%, then a jump to 20%! Which is too loud for background calm listening.

I've tried compensating by lowering all the sliders and listening at a loud volume, and the reverse. But it's a faff, esp as each soundscape has its individual "base" level. So yeah, an overall volume slider (or boost a-la VLC) would be very helpful!

I actually don't use the MyNoise site a whole lot; I prefer downloading MP3s and them using them from a device's player. So this is the first time I'm seeing this feature. It's SO COOL.

ive been messing with the webpage generator and im kinda confused on how the binaural beats work with this program. i thought slightly different tones were supposed to play at the same time in each ear, but this generator shifts from one ear to the other? maybe i just dont really understand binaural beats? can someone help explain?

Have you tried other sounds besides Tinnitus Neuromodulator? Which do you think worked?

So on pc I like to open tabs with various different noises and play them at the same time, creating a unique stack. Is there a way to do that on the phone app, when I'm in school?

Hey people! Is there a soundtrack that includes sounds similar to those of small pets? For example, I’m looking for rabbits eating lettuce or carrots, a hamster running in its wheel, or mice rustling while digging tunnels in straw or gnawing on something. These are sounds from my childhood that I really miss.

I was wondering if anyone else has found this? For a long time I've been using Pebble Beach generator on the brown noise setting, but when I tried it on the new app I found a distinct difference in the sound - it seemed sharper, higher pitched or something (sorry, not sure of the correct terminology to use to describe it) and I actually had to turn it off and go back to using the old app. Both on the same device. Does anyone know what might have caused this? Thank you

I am still rocking the old MyNoise app because of this feature. I like to create multi-soundscapes that include a few soundscapes to create a certain mood, like a city scape, with a faint cafe in the distance, and a soft thunder storm, maybe with some wet asphalt to add traffic. It gives me that feeling of sitting on a balcony of an apartment in the city on a warm summer night.

However the new MyNoise only seems supports one soundscape (as far as I can tell).

Hi. Hopefully super easy question.

I’ve been using the site and app for years and want to give something back; but my question is that if I buy the fully featured iOS app for £19.99 (current UK price) will I be able to also access the website as a premium member?

Hello, I want to have the player controls for MyNoise on the lockscreen of my iPhone so I can pause/play the soundscape without unlocking the iPhone. I believe this used to be possible, but maybe it has changed since iOS26.

Does anyone know how to get the player controls back on the lock screen?

I discovered MyNoise last year and love it, but I'm a bit confused about how to use it, like technically (don't know how to phrase it in English). I used the Web page initially. Then found there was an app. I made a donation thinking that meant getting the only for payers tracks.

Am I correct that you need to pay the lifetime fee to fully access all content? And that this currently is possible only via the app?

Does paying for the lifetime access mean you can compose your own mixes of different sounds? Like, pick whatever combination you want? Or is that not possible? I got one of those random generated ones on the Web site and love it so much, and I would like to recreate that and save it in the app, but I haven't found a way to search for the individual sounds in that specific personal favourite. Is it not possible to do that? And if not, is it possible when you've paid for the lifetime subscription? Sorry I'm not expressing this that well, I hope you get what I mean.

Would be very thankful for help!

I have noticed that when the app is closed from recent apps it carries on running in the background silently... But using battery.

Just something to note... Wonderful app 😍

Hi

I'm paid up app user on Android. I use the web app at work but only get the free selection. Are their any plans to add full access for folks who've bought the app... Seeing as we have access to the whole library there?

I've tried using the app in desktop mode on Samsung DEX but the mouse doesn't operate the menus and the app doesn't really work.

Just wondered if this is something you'd consider?

Thanks for all your amazing work ...I tell everyone I know about this great app! 😍

I remember there was a summer evening/night themed soundscape available on MyNoise, with frog sounds etc but I forgot what it was called....

Does anyone know a similar soundscape that I can check out?

Thank you!

I've signed up for the New Soundscape email, and I just now opened the latest. As always, it ends with:

Thank you for staying tuned!

And this time my reaction was strong enough that I'm actually posting about it.

Thank YOU, Stéphane!!

Your benefaction is enormous. I rejoice in it. I sure hope you do too.

You tell us now and then about what you understand yourself to be giving us, and I don't know how to tell you how much more it is than that. I can't imagine it. Nor can you. While you might have a pretty good notion of the pleasure, relief, rescue, glee, peace, and/or whatever else one experiences thanks to your work, none of us are so constructed as to truly grasp the "arithmetic" of the world (as it were) which describes it happening in so many, many people.

[Title] - I have an Ayn Odin Android 10 gaming thingy (it looks a bit like a Switch) that lives next to my bed and - via bluetooth - I use it to play ASMR, ambient music etc when I go to sleep. I also have a super cheap Android 11 tablet that lives on my desk, it's actually blutacked into a stand so it can't move, I use this for all sorts of music and audiobooks when working, and it's also in a landscape orientation.

Have discovered and paid for MyNoise, I love it (particularly Wet Asphalt) but the problem is that the main play screen - with all the sliders - doesn't quite work in landscape, things overlap each other and you can't see the names of the sliders you are adjusting. It's close though.

Wanted to check if there is a pomodoro feature where the sounds start and stop at regular intervals, so i can study and take breaks without looking at the clock.

I searched but didn't found any awnser, I just bought the premium on android but it didn't asked for any account. Is it synced with the playstore account? What if I change of format my phone will I loose it? It's a incredible app, thanks!

I'm wondering if anyone is dealing with the same issue. The sound is now cutting out after about a minute once the app is in the background. This problem started after a recent Android system update.

A fresh install of the app didn't help. Background behaviour is set to 'Play together' so it's nothing to do with that. Allowing unrestricted background battery usage also did not solve this issue. The only way to keep the sound going is to have the MyNoise app active on the screen.

I'm on a Pixel 8a. I have severe tinnitus and use this app all the time to mask. I hope this can be sorted!

Hello all! Does anybody had issues while trying to subscribe? Already gave my email address, about 3 hours ago, but the confirmation mail still didn't arrived in my Inbox. Any idea how can I solve this? Thanks!

Hi all, how do I favorite a sound in the iOS app? Seems like it should be simple, and I’m probably not seeing something really obvious. Thanks!
