Great sound, but minor issue

2022-05-28

I love these kind of apps, and own many of the best of them. The only issue that I have, is that after hearing one of the nature loops for a while, my ears will begin then to pick up the “seams” in the recording, meaning, that the files should be way bigger than they are, that is to say longer in duration, and as they are in the amazing hands down winner grandaddy of all environmental sound apps, ENVIRONMENTS. Here, I can completely tell when the loop begins anew, and then after a while of hearing it, it actually starts to bother me, as I have become accustomed to the repetition of what should be natural and seamless soundscapes, lasting much longer (so as to fool the ears and the brain) into believing one is actually present within nature, and not on a holodeck. The other issue is the sound quality, as once again ENVIRONMENTS wins hands down ... I don’t know what quality sound file, compression, they are using here, but it must be relatively small, for look at the size of PureNature (Environments, once again,is over half a gigabyte in comparison, and with less sounscapes, although theirs run nearly an hour each). Other than that, though, this is nice.

Looping issue

2022-06-29

Think this a great app. I paid the full price because I like the variety. However as another user stated, when doing a loop (especially with anything with water) you can actually hear when the loop restarts. I have multiple nature sound apps and some without this level of polish, can hide any loop effects. I’m really surprised that it’s very obvious on PureNature. It will remove you from being engrossed in the atmosphere because as soon as I hear the loop restart I automatically know what bird or other sound is about to happen. It really does take you out of just simply relaxing.

Other issue is that sometimes I wish you wouldn’t hear all the insects and birds so much. So while they do have a “setting” to reduce the effect, it’s only a tiny difference. I can barely tell any difference on that setting vs the normal settings.

Overall I think this is a great app, but when you can anticipate the next sounds because you hear it starting over, and the loops aren’t very long, it does take you out of simply relaxing. Hopefully a future update can better mask any loops.

Love at 1st sound

2022-07-30

I found PureNature in 2017, & from the 1st listen, I craved more, so I purchased the extras. It's certainly been worth the price! I also sought out & saved his podcast episodes.

I would have given PureNature 5 stars (& still may later if more recordings are added), were it not for some obvious looping in older recordings & differences in recording volumes, which Lang seems to be improving over time. All-in-all I cannot praise his offerings enough. What a wonderful way to connect w/ nature when you're stuck in the city as I am now, even if it is vicariously thru headphones!

Wonderful sounds app

2022-08-31

This is hands down the favorite app on my phone and was well worth the price to unlock all of the recordings. The recordings are absolutely immersive, so relaxing, and of the highest quality. Just be sure to listen with high quality stereo headphones. Lang Elliot has inspired me to start making my own binaural recordings but I have a long way to go to catch up with this level of art! I have also been able to use the in-app notes to help me identify several bird species by ear, including a few elusive ones that in thought I would never identify on my own. Keep up the great work!

Surpassed expectations

2022-10-02

Beautiful nature sounds—each scene is so unique and textured. They sound real, unlike many sound relaxation apps which are also nice, but don’t really transport you somewhere in nature the way this one does. I like how the soundscapes change over time as you continue listening. I used this to go to sleep last night (living in a fairly urban area without nature sounds at night), and it was lovely! Thank you so much for PureNature! The creator(s) really had their head(s) in the right place(s) when they created it.

Simply Amazing!

2022-11-02

Wow, just WOW! Congratulations, Mr. Elliott. You’ve accomplished something truly magical and quite spectacular here. I was a pre-order and couldn’t wait to download. The recordings are crystal clear and of the highest quality which leads to a totally immersive and transportive experience. I can’t believe how amazing the sounds are! I’ve never heard anything like it. Headphones are the only way to go, for sure. PureNature is easily navigated and fantastically laid out with beautiful pictures, plus I love the notes laid out briefly describing what you’re listening to. Worth every penny!

Newborn loves this

2022-12-04

I have never reviewed an app - NEVER. This one is worth the time to review. Sure, there are tracks that can o my be listened to if you purchase them. But the free tracks are incredibly relaxing. Each track is the perfect length and you are able to set a timer. My newborn wakes every 1.5-2.5 hours to nurse so I can put the timer on for 2.5 hours and it repeats. Most tracks are 60 minutes. There is information on each one about the location and background noise. Some even identify birds and other animals that can be heard. Excellent

Just like being there!

2023-01-04

I can’t believe how amazing these recordings are, especially in the delicacy of the quieter ones. The sounds are clear and the stereo effects are perfect.

I use PureNature for two things: helping me fall asleep when nothing else works and drowning out the sound of the TV when I want to read in another room. The birdsong recordings and the waves are relaxing, but the storm recordings are perfect when a loud action film is on!

I strongly recommend getting noise cancelling earbuds to use with these. I was using regular iPhone earbuds; upgrading to noise-cancelling has made this even better.

Finally, a bit about price. Being able to listen to samples before purchasing is so helpful, but give yourself a small gift and purchase the entire set of recordings - it’s well worth the price. The only change I’d make is having a recording of cat purring. To me that’s the most relaxing sound ever.

Very impressed

2023-02-05

I’ve tried other, similar apps. The depth of this apps library and the richness of the variety is truly astounding. Definitely worth the money.

One suggestion - why not give us some basic automation abilities using Siri Shortcuts or a URL scheme? Or maybe a setting to start playing a random track upon opening? I would like to just put in my my AirPods and tell Siri to start playing Pure Nature without taking out my phone. Or have this already prepared to play when I arrive at work. Basic automation would let me do that.

Thanks for the great app!

Simply amazing!

2023-03-09

After wading through tons of other nature sounds, this one really stands out. With headphones, it brings you right into the nature. I had moments when I had to check my surroundings to make sure the sound doesn’t come from inside the house :) One question: are these the mix of left and right audio tracks, or sometimes mixed sounds from different locations? For example, when I hear water with birds, the water and birds are recorded in the same place at the same time? Are the sounds altered or enhanced in any way? Thank you for bringing nature to us <3

Wonderful

2023-04-07

App:
Simple and straightforward. I like it.

Content:
Wonderful of course. I’d expected nothing less from a master recordist like Lang Elliott. I had already purchased the albums available on the website and getting more content by listening to individual podcasts is inconvenient. This application solves all that. Lots more content delivered in a convenient format.

Improvements:
Content seems to be normal lossy files. Maybe allow CD+ quality files as a future upgraded in-app purchase? Of course this caters to the small audience with an external DAC but probably willing to pay a premium.

An ability to export files to a separate player so recordings from other sources can be used in parallel.

I’d love to see even more comments on each recording. Maybe as an active listening mode with subtexts for what each sound is as it plays. Definitely *not* narration over the recordings.

Permanently Frozen

2023-05-09

Worked before last two updates. Totally frozen. I have newest iOS. $10 wasted at this point..

I am amending my overly reactive review. I was frustrated because, when I previewed and initially purchased “Pure Nature,” it was impressive and worked perfectly. Then after an iOS update or two, it stopped working entirely. I was trying to sell the idea of purchasing it to my brother at our family Thanksgiving and it wouldn’t work. It was embarrassing. Sometimes, as a consumer, I minimize the complexities of this technological compatibility sh**. I’m sorry. The developer was extremely responsive, and he seems to have resolved the issues. PureNature . Is great. I love it!

Really great app!

2023-06-09

I have virtually all the ‘soundscape’ apps available on iTunes, and this one really stands out in terms of sound quality and ‘natural’ variety. I am a big fan of thunderstorms, and PureNature has a number of really satisfying ones. (Check out ‘Mammoth Cave Thunderstorm’ from the ‘Rain Moods’ set.). There are a number of soundscapes provided for free, and they are representative of the quality in all the sets. I recommend paying the one-time fee to access all material now and on the future. Birds! Insects! Toads! Rain! Wind! Waves! Storms! Whatever natural sounds you like to listen to, you should be able find them. You can run your favorites one at a time with a timer, loop and/or scramble. Very cool!

Use this app to chill out after work

2023-07-11

I feel really fried after being on a computer all day and use PureNature to calm the heck down. Rather than listen to a podcast where my brain still has to take in and process information, I can immerse myself in the soothing sounds of nature and go for a stroll around the neighborhood. I find that within minutes I feel much more relaxed and seem to be observing my surroundings with greater interest and clarity. The sound quality is superb, so much that it’s not rare for me to keep looking over my shoulder for a frog or duck. These recordings are definitely of better quality than just your typical nature sounds CD or sound file.

Incredible audio, meticulously recorded. An absolute joy to hear.

2023-08-11

Lang Elliott has put together an exceptional collection of natural sounds, the likes of which I’ve yet to find anywhere else. And the fact that they’re binaural is just icing on the cake.
PureNature is very well designed, and works flawlessly. They’ve even thought to add a very sublime acoustic profile for those if us who listen through Apple Earbuds or Airpods. It adds just the right amount of equalization to make them sound almost as if you were listening through an over-the-ear, quality headset.
One of the best app purchases I’ve made in PureNature store. Thanks for creating it, and for all the thoughtful audio touches, too many to list.

Best Nature Sounds App Ever…Because It’s Real

2023-09-12

I have downloaded and used several apps that claim to be sounds of nature but nothing captures the beauty of actually being there. The quality of the recordings (especially with Apple AirPods) is so immersive. I also like that the recordings are long and properly edited so that when looped it feels continuous and there are no specific sounds that you can pattern so that you don’t lock in or anticipate specific parts which I find distracting in other recordings. Add Lang’s well written descriptions of the where and when of the recordings is a nice touch. And for what you get the price is worth it. Can’t wait for more albums.

Wonderful soundscapes in a fuss free package

2023-10-14

These are some of the best nature recordings I have ever heard. These are much better than things I have found on other music platforms. They are also balanced from one track to the next so you are rarely surprised by volume jumps. The quality of the recordings is the real winner here.

PureNature itself is pretty good too. It has just enough features to make me not complain but isn’t fussy to use. It has a timer function that is great when using as a sleep aid.

I went through a period where I was really struggling to sleep. Possibly dealing with some anxiety too. These recordings really helped me through that time. Now they are just pleasant reminders to get outside and experience more nature myself!

Love this app!!

2023-11-14

Bought this a while back and can’t go to sleep without it.. after I downloaded the update a few days ago it was freezing and thought it will simply fix itself if I reinstall.. I bought the package when I first downloaded PureNature months ago and it also promises future updates.. so when I reinstalled PureNature back it was doing the same thing so I knew that update was bugged out .. so my problem right now is I can’t access all the albums any more even though I bought the most expensive package which includes all the albums. I also hit restore purchases many times and nothing.. for instance the album called ‘insect lullabies’ is missing and wants me to purchase again.. so what gives? What do I have to do to get all the albums back that I purchased?

Love This App

2023-12-16

I have sensory sensitivity from autism spectrum disorder and I have loved using PureNature as a calming and studying aid. Listening to the natural world has improved my quality of life and for that I am grateful. The recordings are amazing but I do question the quality. My one piece of feedback is that it would be great to know the specific quality of the recordings. The website does go into the technical aspect of the recording process, which I appreciate, but why not market the sound quality of the audio files in PureNature as well? Are these 16-bit/44 Khz files? Are they better than that? I use a DAC attached to my iPhone, and wired headphones. It would be great to have the most optimal quality audio files for listening. If some of your customers are concerned about file size, perhaps have two options. Thank you for your incredible work!

Life Saver For Sensitive Soul

2024-01-16

For as long as I can remember I have been tormented by how noisy the world is. I have tried many,many apps and recordings to try to create an atmosphere I can life with without chronic stress. Up until now everything Ive tried has just barely worked for blocking out outside noise. These tracks work GREAT and I don’t feel like I’m just blocking noise out, I feel like I’m engulfed in something beautiful and real. Noise sensitivity is literally the single biggest challenge I have in my life, and this is by far the best tool I have found to ease the pain.
Many thanks to the creator. You have done some exceptional work here

Features

When listening via speakers in a conventional stereo arrangement, both ears hear signals from both speakers, resulting in "crosstalk" that degrades the spatial cues responsible for a realistic 3D effect.

While speaker listening can certainly provide a satisfying experience, headphones typically yield a much more immersive effect that literally transports the listener into wild nature.

Designed primarily for headphone listening, this app features over 80 spacious 3D binaural soundscapes, meticulously gathered by recording artist Lang Elliott in wild areas across North America and beyond.

• Individual recordings as well as full albums can be looped indefinitely, with listening durations controlled by a timer when desired.

Immerse yourself in the healing voices of the natural world! Be instantly transported into the great outdoors, where the tonic of wildness will soothe your spirit and bring a relaxed sense of joy to your day.

• Learn about tracks while listening by reading descriptions that include dates and locations of recordings.

To experience the remarkable 3D effect, it is best to listen with headphones, where the right ear hears only the right channel, and the left ear hears only the left channel.

To experience nature’s magic in noisy environments, we highly recommend modern “noise cancellation headphones” that greatly decrease the ambient noise.

• Use anywhere and anytime … in coffee shops, subways, airport terminals, work places … whenever you feel the need to be soothed by nature’s healing music.

• Sleep soundly to the rhythmical night songs of insects, frogs and whip-poor-wills, enlivened by the distant hoots and howls of owls and coyotes.

• TWO FREE ALBUMS (of six tracks each) are included in the basic app, with many more albums available as in-app purchases.

To alleviate this problem, we include a special equalization setting specifically tailored for stock Apple EarPods and AirPods.

My recordings have been made using a special microphone that simulates the human head.

In so doing, one's head reduces crosstalk, allowing one's brain to properly decipher the 3D sound cues.
