In 2015 we released a simple, distraction-free white-noise app for iOS that we polished to perfection. We just dropped the price to $0 and are averaging over 3K downloads per day.
We’re so proud of the 5-star reviews that are coming in. Users understand what we’re trying to do!

All you need to do is open this program up and it instantly starts playing the white/pink noise combination. The only other option is to pause the noise and that’s it. I like sleep sound applications that offer tons of features and options for sure. Especially ones that let me record my own sleep sounds. But, there is just something about this app’s no muss no fuss, simple setup that makes it easy to start it and hopefully have a good rest, night’s sleep or just as a great way to reduce environmental noise and distractions I think. Simple is definitely sometimes better I believe.
I like to use, Earplug, in conjunction with my Sony SRS-XB40 Bluetooth speaker and play it loud to help me zone out and relax when I’m stressed out. I really appreciate as well the many different ways that you can control and play this application.
I believe that if you want one of the best white/pink noise applications out there with just the most simple control scheme that you could imagine. That, Earplug, is probably going to be your best bet on the App Store.
Also I wanted to note and extend my sincere thanks and gratitude to the developer of this program for offering it for free today. Thank you very much for that generosity. Yet, seeing how well that I think, Earplug, performs now. Well, I would have gladly paid the asking price for sure. Many thanks, again, for offering this program for free today, for all of the time, hard work and passion no doubt put into building, refining and updating this application and God bless you and your loved ones :).
Seeing how well that Earplug performs made me also want to check out and possibly buy this developer’s cool looking MIDI controller app that I saw listed below. I wish that it had a demo possibly because the price is a tad high, though no doubt worth it from reading the reviews. But, it definitely looks rad and I as much as I love finding new sleep sound applications. I also love finding new music apps as well. Thank you, again, for this great app and I hope that you are doing well.

Update, a few years later: I have been religiously using earplug every time I need to block out outside noise… And I have to say, not only am I better-looking than I ever was before, but I also feel more powerful, confident and successful! And I owe it all to this one app… Because if it didn't help me block out the noise that I need to block out in order to sleep the way I need to sleep in order to be as successful as I need to be, I wouldn't be anywhere.
All hail EARPLUG! May it be praised with great praise.
(I find I can get more volume control using the slider on the Home Screen. The volume controls on the side of the phone are too coarse)
Anyway, lovely, thanks again

Sadness”...
😂🤣. I read sadness first as I was skimming and thought wow, bold claim...
Outside my windows it was as quiet as winter, save for the cozy thunder.
Today I threw the windows open to catch the fresh summery air.
Children are shrieking,
A man is singing,
People are yelling and talking loudly,
The loudspeakers at the train station are announcing,
The motorcycles are out again.
I tap my Earplug and put it in my
shirt pocket, the speakers peeking out at the top.
The suddenly-summer noise vanishes.

One piece of feedback I have is: stop playing when headphones are disconnected (physical or Bluetooth). Quite annoying to have to press pause; every other audio app pauses on disconnect.
I already was running my air conditioner fan at night to create white noise. In addition, I have a white noise machine which I have had for number of years.
But lately, my air conditioner has been noisy. I just wasn’t getting a good night’s sleep. I decided to give this app a try.
The combination of white and pink noise is just perfect for cutting out all unwanted noise around me.
I live near an Air Force Base, and I no longer need earplugs. I put my iPhone about a foot or two away from my head and go to sleep. I like that the app is extremely simple to use, without a lot of fuss or controls. It just works perfectly.
To the developer: please continue to update this for all future iOS versions, because at this point I cannot imagine sleeping without it. Thank you!
