Soothing Noise Player : Natural calming sounds to relax

Soothing Noise Player | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository

New in F-Droid. Happy to see this. In the past I used Noice but then Noice wanted Internet access and I stopped using it. It comes with Anti-Features warning. Soothing on the other hand requires very little permissions.

Thank you for sharing this 🙏
I've been using Noice too, but I'm totally switching to this
This post got me to figure out how to use obtainium. Now I'm legally smarter and enjoying some brown/pink noise
Very cool! When I was trying to find one to get the baby to sleep better there were either only very expensive or ones full of ads with sounds. So now I can delete the propriatary one. Thanks for posting the link.
Sometimes I go through fdroid to see what is available but I never saw this one.
- If you're ever looking for a portable sound machine that is small and good for travel but also not on a smart device, I highly recommend this one. I got one of these for my first kid and it lasted for 4 years and many trips. The battery died after that due to overcharging but it was very useful for one setting. Got another when the second was born and they both still listen to theirs.
- Welcome. This app was new in F-Droid, I noticed it here at the Latest Apps section : https://f-droid.org Another way to check for new apps in F-Droid is https://fossdroid.com
  
  I'm probably really stupid, I only just realised now when you juxtaposed those two websites, that the F in F-Droid stands for FOSS (or maybe just free)
EasyNoise is pretty good for white/pink,/brown noise
Does it have any dependencies? I just installed it and it won't even launch.
- Here's closed issues, maybe useful : https://github.com/ljmc2000/NoiseLooper/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed
Thanks for this. Very nice find and I can see using this regularly.
