Why rain helps you relax
Rain is a natural steady noise: it covers other sounds the way pink noise does, but with drops and texture that many find more pleasant than a synthetic hiss.
What people use it for
- Sleep: a calm background that hides traffic and the house.
- Focus: reading, studying or writing with the feel of a rainy day.
- Relaxing: a break, meditation or winding down after work.
How to use it
Keep it soft, just above the noise you want to hide. To add a fan or brown noise underneath, open the web app. The iPhone app has 10 different rains, from a roof to a tent and distant thunder.
Questions
Is there thunder?
No. This is light rain only, with no thunder or sudden noises that could wake you.
Is it free?
Yes. It plays in your browser with no ads and no account.
Does it work offline?
Once you install the web app, sounds you've played keep working without internet. The iPhone app has every sound built in.
