Affordable One-time Purchase with No In-App Purchase or Subscriptions. * This update includes minor fixes, new settings, and support for additional languages. - Supports Family Share - Combine Brainwaves with Ambience and Another App by selecting background mode 'Ambience + Other App' - To use Another App for the Background Audio choose 'Other App'. - When using background modes that allow other audio apps or iTunes Music to be playing, lock screen controls will only affect iTunes or the other app. - If the audio stops when the app is backgrounded or the screen locks please restart the device with a full shutdown as this is the result of low RAM memory which causes iOS to suspend background audio. * New Languages * - If the app is not in your preferred language you can change it in the Settings. - Settings can be accessed by tapping the wrench button in the bottom left of the main screen. * New Settings * - Clear Lock Screen after Stop: This option is enabled by default and clears the app from the device lock screen after the Stop button is tapped. This option is only relevant when the Background Mode is set to "Ambience Only", as this is the only mode for which iOS places the app on the lock screen. This feature was added to help prevent car audio systems from resuming the app upon connection. Most car audio systems automatically send a Bluetooth play command upon connection, which causes any audio/video app present on the lock screen to begin playing. - Auto-Resume after Interrupt: This setting causes the app to resume playing if it was interrupted by a short call. * New Color Noise Background Audio * - Gray, Green, and Velvet Noise * How it Works * During the entrainment process, two different carrier tones are played into the left and right ears. The frequency difference between these tones matches the brainwave frequency of the target state of mind. The listener will hear these carrier tones as an audible tone, however, when processing these two different tones the human brain will perceive the small frequency difference between the tones as an inaudible periodic beat. When exposed to this beat the listener's brainwaves will begin to synchronize with the beat frequency. What allows the human brain to perceive this beat is our directional hearing system, located in the brain stem. The brain's directional hearing system calculates frequency shifts between sound entering the left and right ear to quickly locate the direction of a sound, but when that difference is rhythmic, as with binaural tones, the brain synchronizes with the pattern. This process is more effective in the presence of background noise or ambience, which allows humans to hear and locate even subtle sounds, like an animal moving nearby in a forest that is filled with noise. As an example, the human ear can't directly perceive the 1 - 2 Hz Delta-wave frequencies associated with deep sleep because it is well below the human hearing range, but if you wear headphones or earbuds with one side playing a 135 Hz tone and the other playing a 136 Hz tone your brain will perceive the 1 Hz difference between those frequencies as a periodic beat, in this case matching a low delta wave frequency associated with sleep. As you listen, your own brainwaves will begin to match that frequency. Warning: Do not use this app while driving or operating machinery. Note: If your vehicle Auto-Plays connected devices use the Ambience+Other background mode.

This update includes UI improvements for iPad. The 10.0 update also includes several new settings as well as new binaural programs and background audio. The new options are located in the app's General Settings, which is accessed by tapping the wrench-button on the main screen: * Reduce Other App Volume - Option to enable audio ducking which instructs iOS to reduce the volume of other apps by 50% while this app is playing. iOS does not allow the volume reduction to be customized. * Wave Amplitude Boost - Option to boost the amplitude of the binaural carrier waves by a fixed amount to provide an additional increase in volume. This option is provided as an on/off toggle setting. * Carrier Signal (2 Options)- Option to switch between the default low-frequency binaural carrier wave and a medium carrier wave of ~250 Hz. This will not alter the frequency of the binaural tones. Example: A 1 Hz tone on a low-frequency carrier uses 121 Hz Left and 120 Hz Right, but with a Mid-carrier uses 221 Hz Left and 220 Hz Right. * Option to export time spent listening to Relaxation and Meditation programs to the Apple Health App as Mindful Minutes. * New Backgrounds * - White Noise - Brown Noise - Energy Flow - Solar Waves - Supports Family Share - Combine Brainwaves with Ambience and Another App by selecting background mode 'Ambience + Other App' - To use Another App for the Background Audio choose 'Other App'. - When using background modes that allow other audio apps or iTunes Music to be playing Lockscreen controls will only affect iTunes or the other app. - If the audio stops when the app is backgrounded or the screen locks please restart the device with a full shutdown as this is the result of low RAM memory which causes iOS to suspend background audio. * How it Works * During the entrainment process, two different carrier tones are played into the left and right ears.

Thanks for making BrainWave the top-selling brainwave entrainment apps in the App Store for 8 years. This version includes language translations for Chinese Simplified and Japanese.

Improved and smoothed out audio fading between different brainwave program stages. The audio will fade down between unique binaural program stages to avoid interference patterns caused by incompatible frequencies.

Fix for audio interference issue.

iOS Compatibility update

Improved iTunes music playback during brainwave programs.

The main focus of this update is the Landscape UI for iPad * Note: Headphones/Earbuds are Required for Binaural Tones to be Effective as the Left Ear and Right Ear Audio must be isolated for the Brain to perceive the inaudible low-frequency difference between the two sides.

* Headphones/Earbuds are Required for Binaural Tones to be Effective as the Left Ear and Right Ear Audio must be isolated for the Brain to perceive the inaudible low-frequency difference between the two sides. ** Changes to Orientation Support: With the upcoming arrival of several new devices with new screen-sizes and aspect ratios, iOS 8 required a re-write of our iPhone and iPad UI to support these devices, and as part of that, we have returned the app to a Portrait-only view for now. Once we know what these future screen dimensions and Aspect Ratios are, and have time to work with the real devices, we can implement a new Landscape UI for the iPad. * New Features: Three New Atmospheric Music backgrounds, One new Natural Beach Surf Background, 4 new Gentle Alarm Sounds. A new Shuffle/Repeat feature for iTunes Music Backgrounds and updated, larger Retina buttons.

* Supports iOS 8.0 * Thanks for making the Brain Wave Series the Top Selling Brainwave Entrainment apps in the App Store! This update includes new Ambient Backgrounds, a long natural Beach Surf background, a Shuffle feature for iTunes Backgrounds and Larger Buttons for better usability. * There are now 17 Relaxing Ambient Backgrounds, as well as the ability to create an iTunes Playlist for each brainwave program. Or you can startup Pandora, Tunein, iTunes Radio, or Spotify and then start Brain Wave to combine the audio from another app with Binaural Tones.
