Somni lets you play audio in one ear and masking sounds in the other.
Audio and sounds can be swapped left to right and each has its own independent volume control.
Somni has two audio books and six fairy tales and you can load local MP3s from the files app. These could be podcasts, music or audio book chapters.
You can record your own songs and stories using the built-in Voice Memos app and open these in Somni. Mums and Dads can save their childs bedtime stories and songs and open them in the app.
Somni aims to help you to get to sleep easily. The concept is to become familiar with the book so you do not need to know whats coming next. The chapters become old friends and listening to the narrative helps you drift off to sleep quickly.
Chapters play continuously until the book ends.
If you need white noise to mask Tinnitus then you can choose one of the masking tracks built in to the app. There are also two musical tracks.
