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.

Thanks for the feedback! If you have iOS we also have an app :) https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/noisli/id862773459?mt=8

Just purchased :-)

Honestly, this is one of those things that I'm never going to use because it's Web 2.0 and doesn't need to be. Your core functionality is cool: I definitely would like something that allows me to mix background noises. But why am I signing up for your service? That has nothing to do with what I want from your app. That just gets in the way of using your app. Why is there integration with Google Drive? That has nothin…

I'll happily signup if I can save my sound configuration. The biz dev dude in the office down the hall has been shouting on his phone all day, and I found this just as I was about to go berserk.

Anyway, nice work - and if you can build in saving sounds, I'd definitely pay for this.

This is like anti-noise-reduction. Which to me is weird. It's the fan white(?) noise which makes my blood pressure go up not down. So I wonder if it isn't just a myth that this should be calming at all.

That said, I still think the page is very well made and the sounds sound great! Well done!

Thank you for your feedback, appreciate your honesty. Of course the text editor is not something for everybody. The users that do appreciate it want to write in a pleasant environment, without worrying to much on formatting. Would love to understand more how Noisli could be more useful for you. Just write me at hello (at) noisli (dot) com

What are you looking for? He just gave you exactly that list.

It can be more useful by doing less.

A contrary anecdote to yours would be mine. I love noisli so much, I actually bought the iPhone app! The app also lets you store combinations as named sets, a big plus for me.

As with anything software (or life), YMMV.
