Sleep Machine Lite Reviews

by UnseenCity

I like SleepMachineLite and use it every night on my iphone. It works well with external speakers and sounds realistic. My one issue is with a bug in the volume and play settings. Every night when I open SleepMachineLite before I plug in my speakers (headphone jack) frequently SleepMachineLite will instantly turn up the volume pretty high and immediately start playing my sound. It is quite startling and sometimes will wake my wife up. Not sure how to fix it as there are no settings for this to adjust. Guess I just have to make sure I plug in my speakers before opening SleepMachineLite . If it weren't for the glitch I would give SleepMachineLite 4-5 stars.

It's not fair you have to upgrade just to have the noise keep playing while using other apps. I put this on my speaker dock for when I sleep or am resting and I exit it out to set something up on another app and the knows stops the second you exit. Not fair! However you can lock your iPhone and SleepMachineLite will continue making the noise. As far as the noise goes its great! Loud and genuine. It says fan noise and isn't actually just white noise like other apps. The same volume on SleepMachineLite is louder than the same volume with other noise apps. Looks like I will upgrade because I really want SleepMachineLite to work even when I exit it. Which the others do but this is the best sound quality. I've tried many apps!

I've been having a hard time sleeping. I have been a night shifter for over a dozen years and only now insomnia has taken residence in my bedroom. I took great measures to have the best bed for me, the cave like ambience and air conditioning to boot...but nada. During one of my many sleepless sessions I was browsing through SleepMachineLite store and saw SleepMachineLite. This free app was the icing on my metaphorical sleep cake. I paired it to my blue booth speaker and in seconds I'm in a beach side cabana... I can almost smell the salty sea air. Thank u for SleepMachineLite. May I be so bold as to ask SleepMachineLite maker(s) to make it so the noise doesn't stop when flipping through other functions in my phone. Now back to the task at hand: sleep perchance to dream...

I used to take a nibble of ambein. This summer was hot and I took out a fan to stay cool. I found the noise of the fan helped me fall asleep and fall back to sleep. I tried a few nights with out the white pill.. So I was now hooked on a fan to put me to sleep.. One of my customers told me about SleepMachineLite for free..... White noise now no white pill . I have two different apps both have their own benefits .. SleepMachineLite has a better quality of sound .. I like the wind. I enjoyed the music but found i would wake with a thriller dream.. I will run with the wind. Thank you for making this available

My cousin stayed over the night i got SleepMachineLite and when she stays over we like to stay up an talk all night long. But the second i put this on i was sooooo tired and so was she. Within 10 minutes we were both asleep. I know that cause she was snoring!!
This is for people who are sceptacle. Dont believe the negative comments. One person was upset because they got this one and another one and the other one had over 100 noises for free. But at night before you go to bed do you really want to scan through 100 different noises just to fall asleep. And you dont even know if that app works well or not. if you really want more noises just buy the full version if you can. (and i completely understand if you cant.) it works just fine for me and lots if others. Just try it, its free so if you dont like it just delete it.

I have always liked sleeping with some noise in the background (like a fan or humidifier). Lately, this has become more of a necessity, so sleeping without any noise is awkward. Usually I run an air purifier that covers this, but if I'm away from home, I need something else.

SleepMachineLite (the "lite" version) is very nice for a free app. Yes, it tries to promote the paid upgrade, but it does it in a fairly noninvasive way, and there are (currently) no sleazy ads for internet dating services like many free apps have. The only ad is for the paid version of SleepMachineLite , which is quite tasteful compared to so many other annoying apps out there. The free version is good enough for me right now, but if I were going to buy a paid app like this, I would get Sleep Machine, because it seems well designed, and the free version has left a good impression so far.

I've been married for 8 years to a pretty loud snorer and it doesn't help that I'm a light sleeper. We've tried every gadget on the market ( that have all failed) to fully block out the snoring. The sleep phone is absolutely FANTASTIC!!! I plug it into my ITouch and found a free white noise sound that plays right into my ears. The fleece headband is so comfortable and I also use the band
over my eyes as an eyeshade which is nice. This has been the answer to our sleeping life and we happily snuggle every night now. My only complaint is the band is one size fits all and too loose. I've had to sew it so it's tighter and it's fine now. Wish they sold it in smaller size. Otherwise, truly a great solution to blocking out any night noise.

I have insomnia, big time. It took me three days but SleepMachineLite really helped. Especially when I decided to not put it on a timer and let it literally run all night. I found that visualizing married with the audio really worked. I am going to continue to work with this thing... Honestly, I combined three sounds, the ambient, ocean waves, and wind. Ambient being most prominent, waves following at about half the volume and wind at half that. It is working and I'm shocked. I still wake, but with visualization and this, I am some how managing to fall back asleep. Again. Shock. Try it. Give it a few days. And please report back. This is nuts!

This is one of my favorite apps. The fact that it was free was a great perk, but even if I'd had to pay some for it, it would still be in my top five. I have to have white noise in order to get to sleep and SleepMachineLite let's you use up to three different sounds in conjunction with each other (I use waves, wind, and rain)! It lets you adjust the volume on each one separately, and has a timer function so that, if you want one, you have an alarm after the timer stops. If you want to make really sure you don't get an alarm, you can always set the timer for 15 or so hours.
I recommend SleepMachineLite!

I am one of this people who can't fall asleep fast and I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING!! then I thought well this has a lot of good reviews so I thought I tried it out. And guess what I am so GLAD I did because I use it mostly every night when I can't go to sleep and man does it work. Here is what you gotta do just pick any of their many sounds ( you can have up to 3 sounds going off at the same time ... I only use 2 ) that is the most soothing to you and BAM next thing you know you have already fallen asleep. And it will go off autimaticaly ( you can set off how much u want it on ... I keep it at 10 minutes ).

I usually use a fan to provide white noise at night. SleepMachineLite has the most realistic, soothing fan of any app that I've tried. But what makes this particular app better than anything else is the ability to create sound mixes. I was highly skeptical of this concept at first, until I gave it a try. I started with the fan, added wind through the trees which deepens and broadens the sound picture, and finished up with a hint of waves on the beach for texture. This is created the most soothing sound environment that I've ever experienced.

This one is great and I have tried most all of the sleep/relaxation apps. Obviously all sound tracks must loop eventually. With most sleep apps you can hear the track restart. These recordings loop nearly undetectable. The ability to custom mix several sounds is great. Mix in a some heavy rain, a bit of wind, and a pinch of wind chime. Individual sound level adjustments work perfect. Previous reviewers claimed it's too loud? If you can't figure out these simple controls than your screwed and you need more help than SleepMachineLite could ever provide.

Great app for sleeping once I got used to it. The free sounds are great, plug your phone in and let it run. You can even program it to time out after a few hours.

I checked the other sounds in the free version and they didn't appeal to me so I chose one and stick with it.

Update: been using this for almost one year now, still going strong. The free sounds are just fine. The developer keeps pushing messages for upgrading, but I truthfully see little point, even to stop "the annoying messages" as they call it.

At home, I sleep with a fan in the room. When I stay at a hotel, it's usually too quiet. So this past trip, I downloaded and tried SleepMachineLite. It worked great! I just used the fan sound, turned up my phone, and let it go all night. Just the perfect amount of noise. I haven't played around with all the other noises yet.

I wasn't worried about running down the battery as I just left the phone plugged in all night since I needed to recharge it anyway. I'll probably end up buying the full version. Great app.

I have tried Ambien, which caused addiction to the product because I fell asleep quickly however, it also made me sleepy for several hours in the morning. I also tried Rozerem, which took a while to fall asleep but I stayed asleep longer. With BOTH products I never felt rested.
The first time I tried the sleep machine I was asleep within 15 minutes and woke up once during the night. The next time I was asleep in 10 minutes and didn't awaken all night. I will NEVER use sleeping pills again THANKS TO THE SLEEP MACHINE!
