Contact Dark Noise Support

I paid for this app already. My family became dependent on it for sleep sound. Tonight, the app informed me that I am no longer a paying user, that I must now pay, AGAIN, every year, to continue using an app that I already bought. This is a violation of section 3.1.2(a) "Permissible uses" in Apple's App Store Review Guidelines: "If you are changing your existing app to a subscription-based business model, you should not take away the primary functionality existing users have already paid for." I'm reporting this app to Apple.

If you want more of my money then you need to make another app that I want to buy. You can't just charge me for the same app over and over after I already paid you for it.

I like the app. The problem is that the app conveniently forgets quite often that you already have an active subscription. The app then locks you out of the premium features, because it wants you to spend money to sign you up for a more expensive subscription.
Therefore, I have stopped using the app and canceled my subscription. I refuse to use any app that has a primary focus of using me to make money. Really sad that such a great app has as a primary focus scamming subscribers out of their money. If I could give the app no stars I would. I mean what is the point of paying a subscription to have access to premium features when the app will the next day conveniently forget that you have an active subscription and want you to sign up for an even more expensive subscription.

I agree with scampercom about the sound quality being off. The sounds sound thinned out. I use in-ear headphones (not Apple’s) to help blocked out co-workers when trying to concentrate. I usually listen to music but sometimes that can get tiresome and I prefer white noise. This app, though I really like the selection, probably wouldn’t help. The sound quality from other apps like Noisli and Noizio are better, with Wildfulness being the absolute best with 3D sound. I can mix sounds with Noisli but the app hasn’t been updated in a year or so and you can hear the looping. Noizio is updated, has more sounds than Noisli, but you can hear the looping and it requires so many in app purchases to expand the library. Wildfulness, Wildfulness 2, and it’s 3rd counterpart Sonas Island (or something like that) has beyond amazing sound quality. You can hear the looping with a few sounds but it’s biggest flaw for me is the lack of variety. It’s ALL nature sounds. There are other apps I have tried but most were unnecessarily complicated or not worth mentioning. This app is good for it’s simplicity, ease of use, features, and variety, but unfortunately not it’s sound quality.
