Hushette: Ambient Noise

A sound machine in your pocket. Every sound in Hushette is made on your device as it plays, so it never loops and never repeats: no seams, no telltale bird every forty seconds. FIFTEEN SOUNDS, MIXED FREELY Noise: white, pink and brown. Nature: rain, distant thunder, waves in sets, wind in gusts and lulls, a running stream, crickets at night and a dawn chorus of birds. Home: a fan and a crackling fireplace. Tap any tile to switch a sound on, and set its level with its slider. The thunder rolls at its own pace, the birds take turns, the fire pops now and then. FOCUS TONES Binaural beats (for headphones) and isochronic pulses (on speakers too), at four rates from delta to beta. Play them alone or under the rain. A NOISE FOR YOUR ROOM Hushette can listen to your room for five seconds and shape a noise, Room, to cover what it hears: a fridge's hum, traffic, voices through a wall. Only eight levels are kept; the sound is never recorded or saved. PLAYS ON WHEN LOCKED Hushette keeps playing with the screen off or in another app, with play and pause on the Lock Screen, in Control Center and on your AirPods. It steps aside for a call or an alarm and comes back after. FALLS ASLEEP WITH YOU A sleep timer fades the sound out over its last two minutes. PRESETS, WIDGETS AND SHORTCUTS Work, Reading, Sleep, Focus and Storm are ready to go, and any mix can be saved as your own. Start one from a Home Screen widget or a Control Center control without opening the app, or from Shortcuts and Siri. MADE WITH CARE Set how wide each sound spreads in stereo, how long the fades take and how much the sounds drift. ALSO ON THE MAC Buy once, and Hushette is yours on iPhone, iPad and Mac, where it lives in the menu bar. PRIVACY No network access, no account, no tracking. Nothing leaves your device. Requires iOS 17 or iPadOS 17 or later.
