Is this currently working on mobile? I’m not getting audio but seeing indications that it is playing, so maybe it’s just not accounted for. I love Brian Eno, so I’m super excited to see something like this pop up. Would love to contribute generative systems!

Try flipping your ringer switch. For some reason that silences the music for me.

This is great, I paid for a lifetime membership to brain.fm but the app is still broken on iOS. If these can play for longer then 25 minutes (where brain.fm dies on mobile for me) then I’ve found my go-to.

myNoise is good on iOS, it's not exactly like Brain.fm but has a whole bunch of different sounds. I think the author is a member here and that's where I heard about it a few years ago.

Edit: and it absolutely does play more than 25 mins, I quite often leave it on overnight playing rain noises and it's fine.

The content is amazing. Concentration, insomnia, etc. Is it difficult to build systems?

Difficulty? hard to say, looks like knowledge of the various libs used is pretty critical, but pieces look to be between 100-200 lines.

Worked for me on Firefox Focus.

Which is kinda surprising, considering how often media doesn't work...

Are you on iOS? I’ve had a ton of problems with iOS and WebAudio (really anything that uses Webkit, but the issues aren’t as bad on macOS). Didn’t play for me either on this device, but I wasn’t surprised given previous experience.

Was able to get it to play in iOS, but Safari crashed after 1m or so. Not sure if that's cause I let the device lock or what.
