The “womb sound” mix
Try the 👶 Baby calm preset: heartbeat plus soft white noise, which together resemble what babies hear before birth. Lower the white noise if your baby prefers it quieter.
Frequently asked questions
Why does a heartbeat sound calm babies?
Babies hear their mother's heartbeat constantly in the womb. A slow, steady beat can feel familiar and reassuring, especially for newborns.
How loud should it be for a baby?
Low — about the level of a quiet shower — and with the phone or speaker at least 2 meters (7 ft) from the crib. Use the sleep timer so it switches off on its own.
Is it safe to play sounds all night?
For adults, yes at a moderate volume — quieter than a normal conversation. For babies, keep the speaker at least 2 meters (7 ft) from the crib and the volume low, as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Does it work with my phone screen off?
Yes on most phones — the sound plays like music, so it keeps going when the screen locks. Use Night mode to keep a dim clock on screen at your bedside.
