White Noise
Can I mix two sounds together and adjust their volumes individually in White Noise?
Yes, White Noise lets you mix two sounds and control the volume for each one separately. For example, you can set rain low and fan high to create a steady hum that blocks out office noise.
Does White Noise have a timer or alarm feature?
Yes, it includes a timer you can set for sleep (e.g., 30 minutes) and an alarm that wakes you to gentle sounds like ocean waves instead of a jarring beep. You can also save your favorite mixes with custom names.
Why does White Noise drain my battery, and how can I manage it?
Battery drain is noticeable if you leave the app playing all day, but you can easily plug your phone in at your desk or use the timer to limit playback. The app itself is stable with no crashes or glitches on devices like the Google Pixel 7.
How do I quickly access my favorite sounds without scrolling through the list every time?
White Noise currently lacks a quick 'favorites' grid on the home screen, so you have to dig into the sound list each time. However, you can save custom mixes with names like 'Get to Work' to reduce some repetition.
How does White Noise compare to free white noise apps with ads or subscriptions?
White Noise is a one-time purchase (around $2.99) with no ads or subscription nagging, unlike many free apps that constantly push 'upgrade to premium.' It offers over 40 sounds, a mixer, timer, and alarm without upselling, making it better value for a tired professional.
