\"\"<\/a>The app Gentle Wakeup can support you in sleeping better by using natural or low frequency background sounds<\/strong>.\u00a0 If you have a tinnitus<\/strong> you can select a full frequency waterfall<\/strong> sound or white noise<\/strong> to overwrite the beeping. If you or your child has problems staying asleep<\/strong> then you can select a deep regularly home sound<\/strong> like a fan, a dryer or washing machine. Many people can also sleep very calm with monotonous sounds from journeys<\/strong> like inside of a car, bus or aircraft cabin which are available as well. If you just want to sleep with natural sounds<\/strong> then you can choose from jungle sounds, crickets and different rain types.\u00a0Please note that the app is not a medical product and that it only uses natural methods to support you.<\/p>\n
