Bedtime Fan: White Noise Baby Reviews

I have been using BedtimeFan for a long time and love it. The simplicity of it and the simple settings are all I need in a fan app. I show everyone it when we start talking about sleep. Lol
So now I wonder “what happened” because suddenly I get this in-app purchase option that required me to download in the middle of the night (when I was trying to turn the fan on) and I am baffled why suddenly it’s no longer free. Unfortunately I followed the prompts because I didn’t have my glasses on and was half asleep.
I’ve managed to cancel through BedtimeFan Store (I hope that works) because I don’t want to pay for a simple fan sound. If I can ensure I don’t get charged I will definitely keep using BedtimeFan since I do love it.

Love BedtimeFan . Grew up with a box fan every night, so really can’t sleep without that white noise. One of the “improvements” isn’t great for me personally. I can understand that the ramp down of volume over a period of time for a more calm wake up. The problem is that when the volume starts decreasing, it wakes me up immediately. I’m getting substantially less sleep because of it. My work around is to set the sleep timer for an hour later than I need, then setting an iPhone alarm to wake me before the volume decreases. The ramp down may work well for some people, but having a sliding bar in the settings menu to turn the feature on and off would be greatly appreciated.

I never review apps, but after not having BedtimeFan recently (it kept saying the developer needed to update it), I downloaded a few others and they’re just too busy. This simple perfect box fan sound experience can’t be beat and nothing to sort or search. I happened to search the Account Manager 3, Inside Sales of BedtimeFan needing to be updated again and there was a new/identical one, and I was thrilled! I downloaded this and deleted the older version saying it needed updates by the developer. I live BedtimeFan so much when I travel. I depend on my Vornado fan for white noise at home. BedtimeFan delivers as close to the Vornado fan noise as I can get. Thank y’all so much!

So me and my family would always go camping or to our hunting shack but my dad would always snore and we didn’t have any doors or walls and he snores like really loud and I can’t stand snoring or hotels or something I just get on my last nerves because I know I’m up all night but I put on BedtimeFan because I was looking up snoring apps or sound apps and I found BedtimeFan and I was like I’m gonna test it out because I test out a lot of other apps and I did not like them because they made you pay or just weren’t good and I got BedtimeFan and I love it it’s awesome recommend it

I have been using this fan app for years. I use it for camping or when I am staying at someone’s house that doesn’t have a fan . I cannot sleep in pure silence so this fan app has helped many many nights for me . The fan sound itself drowns out any background noise. I have even used if for white noise therapy when my anxiety is through the roof .

Now I use it for my baby boy to help him sleep . I’ve even turned it on while shopping to help keep him asleep . And with that being said , it’s FREE too . It’s a winner for me .

For my whole life my mom would always put a fan in my room for noise. She’s been doing that as a child too! Now, as I am getting older, I’m able to go to sleepovers! I cannot have a sleepover or sleep with no fan! I just cannot sleep! A couple of years ago I downloaded BedtimeFan because I can’t bring my huge fan to my friends house.😂 I do have a small portable fan, but since I have a lot of bags, it would just be a big mess. BedtimeFan works 100%! I love BedtimeFan so much!! I definitely recommend it!!

This is 100% the BEST bedtime fan app EVER i use it every night to sleep, and now i cant sleep without it! If you need a fan to sleep and you’re going on a family trip get BedtimeFan or if you need more charging space, then you can get rid of the regular fan you have and just use BedtimeFan and use the extra charging space for whatever you want. In the end, this is a great fan app, save charging station room with BedtimeFan , and your phone/ipad is never going to be bulkier than a fan

I like this because it’s really nice if you just need a noisemaker for the night it’s you can go to like campfire and a fan rain and I think crickets The reason why I didn’t do five stars is because you can only do that for a limited amount of time we have to watch ads if you want to get two different things it’s a fan and you can pay 799 if you want to get no answer and you can get all of the sounds for free so I want is it’s pretty nice I would recommend it to anyone who needs noise at night just look up like at on BedtimeFan Store white noise and it should pop right up

I have slept with a fan all of my life. It really isn’t optional at this point in my life. I have tried many other white noise apps and recordings, they all fall short. BedtimeFan really does sound like a fan! There’s even a slight vibration noise (very subtle) like you would have with a box fan. It’s not an annoying mockery of a fan like some. Granted, every style of fan has a slight difference in sound, so this may not be exactly like what you use. That said, it at least does actually sound like a fan. And it’s a lot more portable on trips!

At first I loved this, steady background noise to block out sounds of outside (I’m sleeping in a spare room for a while and not my normal bedroom. This room is facing the street with cars and neighbors). But after about a week I noticed some weird noises in the background of the fan. Like tone changes or shifts, sometimes it sounded like there was background noise added to the fan sound. I heard chimes or beeping like an alarm, some kind of music, someone talking, and random noises like objects being moved. Per other reviews this is definitely a weird and annoying aspect of BedtimeFan and I found it very creepy. It started waking me up and keeping me awake so I deleted BedtimeFan .

Whatever I can’t sleep I turn it on but whenever my sister comes I turn on the fan and make her go upstairs because it annoys her so thanks for making this up I can use it to make my sister leave me alone thank you I don’t know why people are giving you bad reviews I’ve been using BedtimeFan for five years since I was five you are amazing also will you please add vacuum sound vacuum cleaners make me fall asleep so will you do that make it free please just like that soft

I’ve always used some kind of noise to put me to sleep, even as a child. But now after lugging a noisemaker that ‘I LOVED ‘ for years I found BedtimeFan and my life is complete. I don’t lug anything except my phone. I bring my charger to ensure I have noise all night and set the volume on med to low. I sleep like a baby. I recommend BedtimeFan to everyone because all you need is the sound of a fan to do the trick.
This sleep sound app is the very best.
5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

First of all, I understand that I am in a trial period. But, the version that they provide is about as limited as you can get. This is done on purpose to get you to upgrade BedtimeFan . You may say no duh but, their trial version is so limited that it is worthless. This is a very poor marketing strategy…most likely?? They probably figure most people will install BedtimeFan because they really only want it temporarily because they forgot their fan or are in a hotel or situation of desperation. Of course after you download their data usage hungry app you need to HOPEFULLY remember to cancel or are too stupid to figure out how. I totally get the marketing approach however, this trial Isn’t worth the time to download!!!

When I was younger I was stationed at Langley AFB and being a new recruit I was on midnight shift. During that time I became accustomed to sleeping with the fan on to drown out the noise of F-15 fighter jets flying overhead while I slept during the day. I’m now 54, on vacation with my family in Florida, they’ve long been asleep as I studied for my message Sunday. I open BedtimeFan to set the fan so that when the central air of the hotel kicks off momentarily, I still have the calm, steady, background noise to remain asleep. It may not make sense to you but I’ve used it more than you can imagine.

I need a fan just to be able to fall asleep at night and I’ve tried many apps while vacationing or if I’ve forgotten to take my little fan with me. I found BedtimeFan and was pleasantly surprised at how realistic it sounded. I’ve used it many times now and it has always put me right to sleep. Thank you for developing an app that actually sounds like a real fan! I tell everyone about your app now.

I love BedtimeFan. It sounds like a real fan and now need it to sleep. It’s so soothing. There’s just one break in the sound at the beginning as it almost always happens when I’m about to fall asleep. I’m a light sleeper and use BedtimeFan to block out street city noise. So when the sound breaks, even though it’s just a few seconds, it usually kinda wakes me up or make me more conscious/awake. To avoid this I usually just start BedtimeFan before getting in bed but I’m bad about remembering. Love that it doesn’t need WiFi so I can use it on planes and abroad!

i couldn’t say that it had flaws, because it doesn’t. i use this all the time because mommy brother snores, i recently i downloaded it bc i stopped using it, and found my sleeping life MISERABLE. i mean, no sleep for days due to the snoring. i’m now redownloading it, and wanted to describe my experience with this app

let me tell you, the person who made BedtimeFan is an angel! so thanks for this awesome OnlineFan that i can use wherever i am

Sincerely, A Reviewer

I'm I never really do reviews but, this needs one. So this is a great app. The fan sound can be a little bit better like it doesn't sound the most like a real fun. I use BedtimeFan because I don't have a good fan I can use and I need some sound to fall asleep. The fan sound has always help me fall asleep but this doesn't sound the most like a real fan. The good stuff tho is I like how it blocked out a lot of outside sounds. It is a very good app in end words. But the realistic fan sound should have a little bit more work on that. But a very good app

I’ve used BedtimeFan for a very long time. One night at my third house I lived in, I downloaded it, never used it, then I was at my 4th house, I couldn’t sleep, we had just moved there, and there was no internet yet, and BedtimeFan doesn’t require Wi-Fi, so, i used it!! Now on my 6th house, I still use it<3 (I’m using the numbers based off of how many house I lived in at the time/now) If you like sleeping with fans, get this one!!

Glad to see they’ve fixed the faint tune in the background. I had quit using it for that reason. I’ll be back now. I’ve used a bunch of these apps and quit using them because I can hear when the loop starts over. I end up focusing on it. I’ve never heard a loop with this one. The only improvement I can suggest is having the option to change the pitch of the fan besides just the three settings. It’s still the best one I’ve used.

I was at a friends home unexpectedly another night and she was asleep w/the fan that we had previously been borrowing put away somewhere else, so I foun & downloaded BedtimeFan. It seemed to work fine to help me sleep at first, yay, but I woke up a few hours later to use the restroom and thought I heard low piano key notes like the first piano note in the scary movie ‘Halloween’ Lol and then following in soft higher notes, chanting sounds, like witches or satan worshippers saying something like “showpahhhhhhhhhh”...Like others have said in these reviews, I thought I was crazy until I came back from restroom and sure enough it was looping, repeating over and over while I tried to fall asleep...I really needed to sleep right away for a couple more hours before a long driving trip and didn’t wanna waste time looking for another, more pure, fan app, so left it on & I prayed strongly Lol. I’ll delete it, I didn’t sleep well second time around worrying in my dreams if it was subliminal devil chanting, and had a very hard time staying awake afterward to drive the 10 hrs home with my son, we had to stop several times to rest.

So I have a 3month old thats moves and makes little noises while he’s asleep and it’s drives me nuts lol and I’ve been meaning to get a white noise machine but haven’t had time to get one but I’m SO RELIEVED with BedtimeFan!
I was so scared that it would have annoying ads but it doesn’t! BedtimeFan has a timer that you can set and I set it to 9hrs 😅 and I actually woke up to turn it off!! my husband, baby and I all slept SOO GOOD! I didn’t hear my husband scrambling through crap in the morning and my baby only woke up once 😩.

I have tried countless noise apps on BedtimeFan Store and every one of them is either annoying, doesn’t let you lock your phone and still play, or doesn’t actually sound like a real fan. I’ve slept with a fan my entire life then once I found BedtimeFan, it sounded exactly like my fan. I use this every single night and I HIGHLY recommend BedtimeFan. It’s simple, 3 setttings from low to high. BedtimeFan is the only thing that lets me have a peaceful nights sleep.

“ Bed Time Fan” is the perfect app to use if you either don’t have one or forgot a portable fan if you were to be away from home. At night, I need a fan to sleep, so I will pull this out and it works great, just like the real thing. The 3 different settings are efficient to use so they can be more accurate to your preference, and others usually don’t find it to be a problem when they try to sleep.

I have a hard time falling back to sleep once I get up in the middle of the night. My friend told me about the fan app and I used it for the first time last night and it totally worked! Set it on low and I didn’t even hear my husband get out of bed. It brings your focus to the sound of the fan and not to any other sound in the background (like my husband snoring!). A whole new world!!!!

I have seen many bad reviews but I have not had the issues they have had. BedtimeFan still works while the phone is locked, not sure about the battery my phone is usually charging at night. I wish that it had a softer oscillating fan nose but that's all. People complaining about the sound need to try a better speaker or better headphones. A cell phone speaker isn't great and I found that it sounds much more like a fan with good headphones. Overall this is a good app.

I use BedtimeFan at night as background noise for my 5 month old. The problem is, every text, phone call, alarm, or any sound comes out of my phone- the fan noise shuts off. Then I have to either close BedtimeFan and reopen it or choose a different fan setting. Even when using do not disturb on my phone to block calls and texts, my alarms shut off the noise. It would be perfect if you could just fix this in the next update. Thanks.

This definitely helps if you have trouble sleeping in the silence, if your power goes out and you need noise but your fan doesn't work, then you can use this. Last night, my power went out and i was sleeping and the power went out waking me up since i didn't have a noise, so i lit some candles and turned this off then i stopped hyperventilating

Glad too have this free app. Works great to help get and keep my baby asleep. I'd love for it not to "click" on, but turn on gradually since I turn it on while my baby is drowsy and it sometimes startles her. The pop up to upgrade to paid version comes on every time you go to turn it off, which is a little annoying, but worth it since it's free. Love that it doesn't drain the battery. Have downloaded on multiple devices.

I repeatedly downloaded BedtimeFan several times over the years on different phones. I can be on the bus train or at home, it never fails. It doesn’t drain my phone battery either. I tried other apps that offer fancy choices but in this case less is more. Just like a real fan, the relaxing noise is 1 click away. (Low/medium/high) good luck !

If my home is too quiet my mind can’t calm down and it’s close to impossible to get rest. The fan sounds legit, I can control the volume and I set a timer so that it will shut off 15 minutes before my alarm goes off, so it makes it easy to wake up. It’s such a simple and basic app, but it’s probably the one thing I cannot live without.
