Ambiance Reviews

I would give 0 stars if I could. Despite never activating the subscription via an email sent when I first signed up, I was still charged, and when I contacted customer support, they couldn’t locate my account (because it wasn’t activated). I had already canceled all my Apple subscriptions in Apple Subscriptions” on my phone including Fabulous, months ago when I first signed up, and my account showed that the subscription would end in November. However, Ambiance didn’t specify a year, leading me to believe it was November 2024—when in reality, I can only assume it meant November 2025. If I had already paid and canceled, why am I still being charged monthly? This isn’t a contract requiring a full-year commitment. If the subscription is canceled, payments should stop. Customer service was unhelpful, despite Ambiance claiming to offer refunds for users who “forget to cancel”, which is misleading for an app marketed as ADHD-friendly. In addition to all of these Ambiance is and all of its sister apps are difficu

When I began to use the this app app I was pleasantly surprised by how often I used it and the benefits I gained in focus and relaxation alike. I am a Fabulous app user and I loved the way that Ambience integrated with Fabulous seamlessly. Loved it.
Unfortunately, I don’t know whether it’s due to updates or a lack there of, but the integration feature is no more. In addition there seems to be a function that now automatically shuts off your sound after about 3 min. Not to mention the interface has always been clunky and as they add features and new sounds you have to dig to find your frequently selected sounds.
In a redesign, it would be nice if my frequently selected sounds were readily available or at least easily searchable.
Overall I’m grateful for Ambiance and loved using it for a time. but I use it less and less

I have been using Fabulous and Ambiance for about 10 months without any issues. But in last one week Ambiance stops the background music and shuts down. Every 15 minutes or so, i have to open app and start the music again. I updated my cell phone software, Ambiance, and restarted phone couple of times but this issue persists. Please fix this bug.

I started using Ambiance in conjunction with the developer’s Fabulous app, which is excellent. I don’t love every single track, but I’ve found a pretty high percentage of them to be useful, and I’m picky about sound quality. The library track does help me focus while working, and the nature sounds are soothing and help mask other environmental noise when I’m trying to sleep. My one complaint, and this is a big one, is that there’s no sleep timer. It also doesn’t play nice with the iPhone timer setting to “stop playing,” so that workaround is not available. Please developers, add a sleep timer feature- I’d use your app every night if it had one.

I have used Ambiance to fall asleep several nights, Ambiance is also great for focusing on work when I’m writing reports and can’t have distracting lyrics. My only complaint is I wish there was a way to have the sounds play for different durations (ie, 10min, 30min, 1hr, 8hr, and the infinite loop already established) I feel like this would aid in meditations and focus times where you need it for a set time. And so my battery doesn’t die at night, haha. And if my only “complaint” is for something that can be added, you know it’s a good app. I honestly recommend to EVERYBODY!

I wish there were two tabs. One for Home (what we see now) and one for Library - similar to Audible. It’s a hassle having to scroll around all the options trying to find previous sounds that I want to replay and have already downloaded - especially when there’s no indicator on the cards to tell me if an option has already been downloaded forcing me to rely on my memory.

I like the variety of tracks available to listen to. I like that there are both deep calming tracks as well as ones with a little more energy for during the day. The looping is relatively smooth, and the sound quality is high. I like to put on Nighttime Orchestra in my bedroom as I get ready for to bed and it’s become a sort of cue to my body that it’s time to relax. My apartment faces a busy road, so during the day the traffic noise is loud. I’ll put on headphones and listen to this app, which offers a much more relaxing environment.
Just one thing though; in the Morning Espresso track, the guy keeps saying “I’m sorry I’m too loud” over and over again. It’s an interesting choice in sound clip to repeat over and over.
Thanks for the overall nice and free app!

Whether you’re looking for some music post workout for stretching, something for a sauna, to meditate, something while driving because people don’t know how to drive anymore THIS IS Ambiance ! The music goes on continuously. I leave it on while working and it’s really helpful. They release new melodies pretty often. Can’t recommend Ambiance enough.

I use Ambiance all the time for its chill background noise for the various parts of my day. It is truly ad free and if you download the specific tracks you like, you can listen to them without Wi-Fi. They came in very handy when the power went out recently. It is alarming how quiet a house is when every cord powered electronic device is off. 😳

I’m obsessed with Ambiance. I use it every day and I recommend it to everyone I know. One weird thing that I’ve noticed is that every time I use the crystal bowls sound it causes Ambiance to crash and close down. No other sound I found does this just the crystals for some reason. Just wanted to let you know, thanks!

I use Ambiance every single day! The meditation and relaxation tracks are fabulous for quiet meditation at the end of a long day. While the workspaces and sound bath tracks are great for focus while working. I play it on my phone in my pocket or on a speaker while doing housework and connect to the car for commuting. Literally the best app for background and meditation sounds and music!

I use the beautiful sounds in Ambiance when I’m trying to get to sleep. I often have trouble doing this and this app really helps! Now after months, I have discovered the even during one of my anxious days, I can always find some sounds that relax me and make me more productive instead of being in my head in a circle of the same thoughts. I cannot recommend this special app more wholeheartedly!

I love all the varied sounds. I can always find one to match my mood or the task at hand. I also love that it’s included on the membership of Fabulous.

One thing I would love to see in the future is an integration with Fabulous. For example, if I’m in the deep work task of fabulous, I’d love to be able to select an option that would immediately launch ambience so I can change the background music.

I really appreciate that it isnt interrupted by ads and that it is consistent and calming. Ambiance helps me sleep and be calmer, and there isn’t any rude or jarring interruptions which is the best. My only thing would be that being able to bookmark your favorite sounds would be nice, just so you don’t have to scroll and sift through everything for the same track every time you open Ambiance .

Firstly, Ambiance is just about perfect. The wide array of choices all for free and no ads is the best thing ever. You devs are truly caring. I love Ambiance so much, my fav is Metro Medley. However, there’s a problem. As of Feb 14, I’ve noticed an odd issue. If the ambience is playing, it just stops playing and Ambiance resets entirely about a minute or less after starting it. This is very annoying, as I prefer to have the ambience play for extended periods. Please fix this.

I love the meditation music! I also like how you could download sounds to play offline and background playback. However, there is no way to manage and delete downloaded sounds, please include option to delete downloaded sounds! Also, please improve offline mode so it's easier to see only my downloaded sounds! And lastly, Ambiance itself uses up a lot of storage (400MB) even if I didn't download any sounds, please optimize app and reduce size!

I think Ambiance is amazing! I love how varied the soundscapes are. They’re all quite lovely. My only critique is that some of them have the Lo-Fi music a bit too loud, which drowns out the soundscape noises in some cases. A couple welcome changes would be to have a darker UI, so it’s easier to see at night. Also, adding a timer option within the soundscapes so that users can time their focus/meditation/study/sleep period. That’s all that I can think of for now. Thank you for reading!

I think this is the one time I have found an amazing AD FREE AND SUBSCRIPTION FREE app and it’s amazing. There has been NO IN APP purchases that I have seen either. I find my sound, hit play (make sure you leave it up in the background) and done. That’s it. The sounds are a very high quality and there is a wonderful of variety of sounds you can use. The only drawback is I wish I could customize but honestly after the first day I didn’t care. I have used it everyday for hours since I have downloaded and I have removed all other sleep noise apps as this one is definitely the best for me.

There are so many apps that advertise a free service but the next thing you know you’re waking up to an ad. That really ruins the mood or this app. Ambiance doesn’t do that!! I fall asleep to it all the time and even noticed that my resting heart rate has gone down slightly. You never have to pay for anything you can just enjoy the sounds. The only recommendations I would make to the creators is to maybe add some more sounds (even though there are plentyy) and possibly add a feature where we can favorite certain sounds so they appear at the very top of the home page or something. Other than that, this app is perfect!!

The sounds are lovely, and I love that they keep playing in the background even if you have other audio going, which is perfect for meditation. The only additional feature I’d ask for is the ability to adjust the volume to make it louder or softer than anything else playing.
