Different states of mind are associated with specific brainwave frequencies that would be inaudible if played directly. These frequencies can be induced in the brain by playing two different tones into each ear (binaural tones), which after being processed by the brain, are perceived as an inaudible beat matching the target brainwave frequency. As you listen, your own brainwaves fall into step and synchronize with this frequency.
BrainWave uses low, mid, and high frequency ranges of Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, and Gamma binaural tones combined in layers and stages to create powerful multi-stage experiences.

8 of 25Often when I use the Brainwave app, one of the other companion apps will start itself up and play as well. So I got two of these apps, like the dream state one that starts itself and begins playing. Not even loaded in memory and the app is not visible in running apps but if I load it up, sure enough, it’s going. This is bizarre and basically makes the app nonfunctional when I have two competing apps both playing. Works great when it works right. Unfortunately this happens far too often.
I do not recommend buying this app when you can get the bundle that includes the app for $5. I purchased both thinking it was not included in the bundle because it was cheaper. It was and they refused to refund my $6.99. Save yourselves the $7. Update 2/23/26 I appreciate the developer taking the time to reach out and clarify things regarding pricing of apps and bundles. Hopefully, Apple can make this more clear going forward. The app is useful especially when used in addition to neurofeedback sessions. It helps to further regulate the nervous system. Highly recommend.
I’ve been a loyal Brainwave user for years, but it’s definitely time for a major update. Compared to other apps in this category, the interface feels old and outdated. Even basic things like saving favorite preferences are confusing and far from user-friendly—I’ve never been able to figure it out. This app has great content, but it desperately needs a modern UI and better usability. Please update it.
I really like this app, I've had some many apps over the years but I keep using this one. I find it beneficial, I especially like the "morning coffee", "espresso" "focused and alert" and "deep sleep" settings. It can be used even if you are watching videos or doing other things on your phone. One of the most valuable apps I've ever used on my iPhone!
I love this, for so many reasons that my only two complaints are features 1. I wish I could cast this to Apple TV. That’s it lol. 2. I wish there was a setting to restart after interruptions like a Phone call or recording a video (I use this at the Gym and record lifts, so each time I do I gotta restart)
If you’re an anxious overthinker like me you’ll love this app! Help your brain relax and take control of your life 🙂
I use this app for everything from Calming Anxiety to Centering Myself with Meditation to Maintaining Concentration & Alertness. Absolutely Fantastic.
Great app except each time I get into my car, if I’ve recently use the app, even if it’s not open in the background, it will launch itself. I would delete the app and reinstall but I don’t want to have to pay for it again.
