hello I'm wanderer001and this is my review of the application rain sounds just like it says at the
top this is normally not the type of app that I would do because it's a really single purpose and
there's lots of other apps like it out there but having recently moved and gone through external
a stressful time through the move and at work sleep and just relaxing in general was becoming
very very difficult and considering the climate that we are currently in something like this could
be useful in helping you relax as well so just like the name implies you are looking at rain
sounds on the front page here we've got a bunch of choices but we're going to talk about this up
here in the corner first which is our options this is an ad-free version you saw ads popping
up popping up at the bottom of the screen every now and then there is a full takeover ad they
do not happen all that often at least as of time of filming to remove the ads there is a one-time
purchase of fifty dollars I normally say support your devs but wow that is a lot for an app that
makes sound don't get me wrong I really enjoy the sounds that it makes and feel that they actually
went out and recorded these rather than just like digitally manipulating and creating them but that
even even with the minus 50% off because are you telling me that this would have cost $100 to have
no ads no great language this particular company does offer lots of other sound apps so you can go
there or take a break take you right to them and then you have contact us the developers of this
so we're gonna go back and kind of look a little more closely at the rain sounds now I'm going to
kind of scroll through these really quickly and then I'll bring up my lapel mic closer so that
you can see it so you've got perfect storm rain on a window rain on leaves light rain evening
lake rain on roof rant on sidewalk calm beach peaceful water ran on tenth ocean rain rainy
evening and thunderstorm now some of these I will admit can't really tell the difference between so
like a light rain and then rain on leaves you can't tell these are all scenes that are pre
done by the app itself however when you click on one to open it well here's that takeover ad
I was talking about so there's an X in the corner there we're just gonna turn that off you have the
sound effect itself there but you can add layers to the sound now you'll notice yes there is an ad
at the bottom there the beauty of this is if you lock your phone the sound will still continue and
on your navigation screen here you have the option to control it as well but one of the things that I
also enjoy aside from the pre-programmed and then you can pause play you can set timers for how long
the sound will run and then turn itself off so if you're using this to kind of help yourself go to
sleep you can have that pre-programmed ahead of time you've got a volume slider down here which
hopefully that's showing up but like I said I will bring my mic a little closer but the one
that I played with the most was this one down here let me see if I can find it all right I
played with this one evening rain so what I added sounded frogs thunderstorms in the distance and
this was pre-programmed with a crackling fire that had the sound of rain going so if I turn this up
you get the sound of the crackling fire that has rain but I added frogs and the thunderstorm the
thunderstorm this particular one doesn't roll in all that often because they have different
types so if I come up to the top one and we hit add you've got light thunderstorm heavy
thunderstorm and that means that the crashing sound happens more frequently and then you
can add even a music to this so this is very customizable which is what I like each sound
effect that is added can have its own volume controlled so you can actually set this up and
control the different layers of sound that you actually get from this so I really appreciate
this for the one that I set up down here you can see I have 57 percent for the crackling
fire and rain I've got twenty six percent twenty four percent for frogs and at 38 percent for the
thunderstorms that come through so all of those are adjustable now you will notice that you can
only have three layers on top of the original sound so here this particular one has birds
chirping and a heart so you can add one more layer if I find one that has just a single
layer which I think rain on roof does because there you go it has rain on roof as the main
you can come up here and you can add two more layers to that should you want evening rain
is that it reminded me the most of when I used to go camping you would have the frogs in the
distance you got the campfire going outside they do have as we talked about before the rain on tent
which I will admit is very very close to how I remember as a child going camping with my
parents and hearing that or if you have like a pop-up Coleman that's what it sounded like
on the skirts that you were sleeping on so it's it's really a single-purpose app I've used it
quite frequently just with all the things that have been happening so if you like me need to
relax I would highly check highly recommend checking out rain sounds you don't need to
pay the $50 I always say support your devs but that's way too much guys just to take away ads
and the ads do not interrupt you while you're listening to it so those take over average
those take over ads don't show up all that often and there's not like an audio ad so it
does not interrupt the actual sounds from this with that said also for those of us who may be
stuck inside if you're looking for not only some sounds over there in the corner I will
link to my playlist of videos that I made a long time ago on a different channel to you know just
kind of walking around outside places if you're stuck inside like me want to feel like you're
actually outside doing something so this will help you sleep those videos over there will help
you feel a little less cooped up with that set I haven't wanderer001 if you have any questions or
comments please feel free to leave them in the area below and as always thanks for watching
