I use this all the time. It is great to get to sleep when suffering with insomnia, pain relief for fibromyalgia or migraine, force a nap when you know you will need it but can’t stop thinking, jet lag wake or sleep, tinnitus, energy meditation (ahhmaaazzzing!!!), or just quiet your ADD when you need to focus. SO MANY USES!!

I love the ambient noise that comes with the app- especially ocean waves. Love that you can use itunes, but usually don’t find it necessary. I also love the slick looking super-intuitive dashboard.

The only improvement it is needs better control on fade in/fade out during programs and at the end of programs. I have the fade toggles set, and only use the app’s ambient sounds, but they are not always working properly. The abrupt stop and start is especially jarring when you are attempting deep sleep- similar to vertigo feeling as you are just falling asleep and you jump suddenly, but without the physical jump- lol. Also integrated glossary within descriptions would be awesome, eg, why gamma for this particular program or beta for that one? What does it DO? Talk nerdy to me.

Sometimes I don't mind spending a little money to see if something works. I have OSA and use a CPAP, honestly the only benefit I get from is it that I don't snore with it. My sleep pattern is still just as jacked up as it always has been. I'm super restless at night, I wake up several times a night. It's a pattern that I'm pretty much used to.

The other day I ran across a video on YT about Binaural Beats. I thought it was kind of interesting so I did a bit of research. One thing I am obsessed with is tracking my vitals. I use the Apple Watch to track all sorts of metrics while I sleep. Now here's what I have seen so far.

My first night I used this app I used ear buds because they fit better with my CPAP, 4:20 minutes is all the sleep I got. Which is pretty typical for me. Here's the kicker. I was restless twice, once at the beginning as I fell asleep and once right before I woke up. My heart rate dipped 21% which it has never done while sleeping. 12% was my Max before this.

Now am I saying that this is a cure-all? No, did this Binaural beat have some effect on my brainwaves last night? It's looking that way, So far I am impressed. I will continue to use this, track my results and rate a 5 if all goes well. Regardless, best $5 I have spent in a while.

This thing blows my mind! The first time I used it I was like "No way!" As I kept using it I discovered that it is literally the only way I am able to fall asleep nights when my mind is so full of thoughts and my anxiety is running rampant! I hate the way sleep aids make me feel like I've been run over by a freight train. I recently switched from using "Deep Sleep" to "Dreamy Sleep" and had the craziest dreams! I normally can't remember my dreams and I was actually able to recall quite a bit of them. Unfortunately last night, I dreamt that I faked the death of my dog last year and I felt like it lasted the whole night so I think I'll be switching back to "Deep Sleep" :( Awesome product though. My *only* complaint is that I wish there were more ambiance options or the ability to use it with Pandora. You can use your own music but I don't have much personal music on my phone so I am limited to using the app's ambiance tracks and they get old after a while. Highly recommend!
