SimplyNoise - Free White Noise
authentic ratingSimple white and brown noise with a timer that many have used for years to sleep and to drown out the house. The main trouble is its behavior: the sound turns on by itself when connecting to a car or AirPods, blasts thunder mid-drive and will not turn off, and after an alarm or another app you have to fully restart it for audio to come back. Also, everything beyond the basic white noise is sold separately.
The reviews are very specific about both benefit and pain: people sleep to brown noise through a HomePod, nap with grandkids, got through grad school with it. The five-star reviews are not templated but describe real scenarios, and the gap between textAvg 3.65 and storeAvg 4.34 comes from honest complaints about app behavior, not manipulation.
