Sleep Machine App Reviews

Oh my goodness, Im so happy! I had to delete this app last year after having it for YEARS, because it didnt work after one of the Apple updates to my phone. I just thought Id check on it again after about a year, and BOOM! Updated! This is BY FAR, the best ambient noise/sleep aid sound app out there. The variety of sounds is awesome, and this girl is so happy it works on her phone again! And now there is even MORE variety! THANK YOU!

This was my favorite app, but the "update" made alarm unreliable and the interface more complicated. I considered this an indispensable sleep aid, now gotta find a replacement. So sad. Wish I could get a refund

Works great as a sound machine most of the time. However, the alarm clock does not go off a *lot* and I oversleep. Sad, as I really like this app.

Love it and sooooo worth the money! This latest OS update is making it glitch occasionally which it never used to. I use it all the time, please update also if there is anyway to make it less of a battery drain so it doesnt have to be plugged in to make it through the night that would be awesome. Even with the glitch/ pauses I use it but an update would be nice since its been almost a year.

I love this app. Id used it every night for years. And the. With iOS 9 it stopped working. But the latest update solved that and it is once again awesome. Thanks!

To say that I am excited is an understatement! I was literally just talked about how this app no longer works and how upset I was because there is nothing else in the App Store that compares. I have been using this app since 2010 and I am thrilled to see that it has been updated. Thank you!!!

This app is better than ever! Current iOS theming looks fantastic, app icon is gorgeous, and the app works phenomenally! My wife and I were actually giddy when it was updated! Thanks guys for the update and the hard work!

Great update, I started using another app for the last year since there hasnt been any updates. Sleep Machine its once again my favorite sleep, relaxation ago app!

12/16/15 Back to 5 stars. This long overdue update is great. The only negative is that I lost my saved sound mixes, but thats minor to me. Im so glad this app works again! 10/25/15 Ive been using Sleep Machine for years now, but the app desperately needs to be updated. I upgraded to iOS 9.1 yesterday and now the sounds dont play in the app. Unfortunately Ive had to get a different app to use at night. When the problems are resolved in Sleep Machine I will become a loyal user again. Old 5-star review: I use this app every night to help me sleep. There isnt a thing I would change. Good things to note: runs in the background, completely customizable, uses a timer, fades out so you dont wake up, audio tracks are seemlessly looped, lets you choose a track from your ipod to use with other sounds. Worth the $1.99!

Update broke the app. Alarm hasnt gone off in three days. An alarm app with a broken alarm is pointless

So glad this app is back! Its the absolute best one there is. Id gladly pay for this. I was dying without it!

App worked great prior to current update, now selecting "snooze" causes background sounds to stop playing. Previous version would return to background sounds after "snooze" was selected. Selecting "snooze" also disables active alarm which does not ring again after 10 minute "snooze" window. Is anybody else experiencing this behavior?

The title says it all, Sleep Machine for iPhone6s is he best! Thanks, Kevin!

I love this sound machine!! I use it every night and it runs all night long. I love the latest update with additional sounds. I have used it for years and have never had a issue after any update. Love it!!! Love it!!!

This app is the best app i have ever had! I recommend it to everyone and anyone that wants to sleep peacefully. Nothing to dislike.

When I first downloaded the app it was a life changer. Falling asleep and waking up to the gentlest sounds was incredible. With every update, change, and "improvement" to the app, however, it has become a convoluted, complicated mess. I cant even get the alarm to go off in the morning anymore. They had a great app. They ruined a great app to fix a problem that was never there. And now I hate their app.

I travel a lot and rely on this app everyday. Since getting the new version I have not been able to get it to work properly. Time to find a replacement.

I used this app for a year and loved it. Dowloaded the update, but the alarm appeared to be unreliable. Wrote the company, and they responded same day. Notifications were off for sleep machine, and once I enabled those, the alarm worked fine.

I have used the Sleep Machine app for the past four years and loved it. Unfortunately, that love relationship has changed significantly with the "upgraded" version of this application. In an attempt to make the app more robust, the "tinkers" have added an additional sound option into the mix, and some other goofy sleep cycle calculator. The result of all their "improvements" is that the app functions equally as well as a sound generator, but is no longer reliable as an alarm. I still use the app, and have been trying to figure out how to work around the new glitches. For instance, it now will randomly turn the alarm off in the middle of the night. I cant figure out why it is doing this, and have tried several ways of assuring that it stays engaged…thus far without any success. Also,The snooze button is no longer available as it was in the previous iteration of this application. Before, it simply appeared (large size) on the face of your iPhone; now, you have to unlock your iPhone to find the snooze button. By the time you have gone through all those motions, youre pretty much awake and no longer feel the need to snooze an extra few minutes. Im using this on a new iPhone 5s, and – as mentioned above – have been using this application in his previous version quite successfully. I am very disappointed in how unreliable and useless as an alarm it has become with this last rendition. However, I think it is still the best ambient sound generator out there, and so will probably continue to use it along with a back-up alarm to compensate for its uselessness in that category. Therefore, Ive given it 2 stars, whereas before I would have given it a full five.

Its amazing how far ahead of the field this app is. Was majorly disappointed when it didnt work with my new phone and I had to settle with another mediocre app. Since I wake up earlier than my wife but stay in bed working, the ability to run in the background while in other apps is priceless. Seems like a simple feature that no one else has! This update is a nice Christmas gift. Thanks, guys!
