It's probably not a good idea for a long run, but my daughter for a few years now is put into sleep with noise generated from the app. It was a life saver for us, to help her get to sleep. Otherwise we are too loud for her, or neighbors. I put the preset to a triangle starting high on red and low on violet. Also options to a delicate amplitude pulsing.

It is also very helpful to go to sleep if it is too loud also for adults.

It is a perfect app for me.

I can also recommend Binaural Beats - https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.github.axet.binauralbeat...

I'm sure the somewhat mythical claims about the healing power of noise are over-stated, but it does provide a more interesting set of noises than Chroma Doze. Excellent for long-haul flights and crappy commutes.

I think I prefer Binaureal Beats. For me, Chroma Doze is too free form to be useful. I like a bit of guidance as provided by binaureal beats more.

There are some interesting papers demonstrating reliable improvement in performance in ADHD and otherwise poorly performing people when listening to both noise and binaural beats, some publications reporting effect sizes comparable to stimulant medication.

E.g. here's a paper: https://sci-hub.se/10.1016/j.ctim.2018.11.012

Those screenshots (on Github) are a throwback. Haven't seen holo blue in a long time. #33b5e5, praise DuARTe

Praise duarte indeed :)

I think the whole r/acj thing was a reaction to Google handling Android like a random engineering project with no thought about consumers until this guys showed up.
