I have a 4 month old daughter and paid for a white noise app to help her sleep / calm down. This is a perfect replacement with better design etc. I urge you to make an app marketed towards parents - I would pay for it.

With all 3 of my babies, there is a single magical track on iTunes that has done wonders - on the album "Sweet Dreams: Soothing Sounds for Babies", track #6, "Running Shower".

BUT, I had to edit it so that it stitches together when played on repeat. It fades out and then comes on loud again, startling the baby awake.

I love, recommend, and use Noisli often in our open plan office. The only tiny annoyance is that I really like the ambient cafeteria noise, and after a while I start to notice the looping! There's a very prominent bit where a lady shouts "Swwwwing!". There isn't much you can do about it though other than make the sample much longer, and it's hardly a problem. Just something I notice. Thanks for the site. I actually r…

There's a way to make this harder to detect: create "loops" which are actually a multitude of loops that have prime number lengths. The individual components will repeat, but "beats" of simultaneous repeats won't exist, giving the illusion of a much longer sequence. I've seen an example in graphics used to create very large tiling patterns from a small image space. See: http://web.archive.org/web/20110410071059/http:…

Thanks for the hint ;)
