What does Tinnitus Relief App do?

It plays sound therapy that keeps running through phone calls, video meetings, other apps and a locked screen, with a tone matched to your tinnitus pitch. No account, works offline. Individual results vary significantly.


What is free and what is Premium?

Free, with no time limit: white noise at your matched pitch, frequency matching from 100 to 15,000 Hz, and background play during calls and locked screen. Premium, optional: all 44 sounds, the sleep timer with fade-out and per-ear control. The price is shown in the app before you pay.

Every Feature, Explained

📞

Background Play During Calls, Zoom & YouTube

Free for everyone

Your sound therapy keeps running when you take a phone call, join a meeting, open YouTube, or lock your screen. No pausing. No reconnecting. Most tinnitus apps stop the moment another app uses audio — this one does not.

  • Phone calls — sound continues throughout the call
  • Zoom, Google Meet, FaceTime, Teams — runs underneath video meetings
  • YouTube & podcasts — background audio layers underneath other media
  • Locked screen — audio does not cut when the screen goes dark
🎛️

Frequency Matching Per Ear — 100 to 15,000 Hz

Free

Tinnitus has a specific pitch. The frequency dial lets you find and lock in your exact tinnitus frequency per ear — so the sounds you choose can be matched to it precisely.

  • Logarithmic scale for precise control across the full audible range
  • Independent left and right ear settings (Premium)
  • Takes about two minutes to identify your pitch
  • Guides which sounds will mask your tinnitus most effectively

Sleep Timer with Auto Fade-Out

Premium

Set a timer for 30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes — or play all night. Audio fades out gradually over the final two minutes so silence does not jolt you awake when the timer ends.

  • Gradual fade — no abrupt cutoff
  • Works with any sound or layered combination
  • Continues through calls even while the timer counts down
🔒

Frequently asked questions

Does Tinnitus Relief App keep playing during phone calls?
Yes. Sound therapy keeps running through phone calls, Zoom, Teams, FaceTime, YouTube and a locked screen. Most tinnitus apps pause when another app takes the audio; this one is built not to. Background play is free.
Is Tinnitus Relief App free?
Yes. The free tier has no time limit: white noise at your matched pitch, frequency matching and background play during calls. Premium is optional and adds the 44-sound library, the sleep timer with fade-out and per-ear control.
Can I match the app to my tinnitus frequency?
Yes. The frequency dial goes from 100 to 15,000 Hz on a logarithmic scale and takes about two minutes. Matching both ears together is free; separate left and right settings are Premium. The frequency matching guide explains the method.
Does the app work offline?
Yes. After installation every sound plays offline, including on airplane mode. No account is needed and no personal or health data leaves your phone.
Is Tinnitus Relief App a medical device?
No. It is a sound tool that can make tinnitus less intrusive in daily life. It does not diagnose, treat or cure tinnitus. See a doctor, audiologist or ENT specialist if your tinnitus is sudden, one-sided, pulsatile, or comes with hearing loss, dizziness or pain.

Ready for quieter nights and calmer days?

Download free. Start with white noise and background play. If you want 44 sounds and a sleep timer, Premium is optional. Individual results vary significantly, so judge it on a week of real use.
