AudioNotch: Tinnitus Treatment
Science-Backed Sound Therapy
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Sound therapy personalized to your tinnitus. Match your tinnitus frequency, create your own notched sounds, and download them to listen offline.
In a Northwell Health randomized controlled trial, patients given free access to AudioNotch experienced greater improvement in tinnitus handicap than those receiving standard care. Published in Otology & Neurotology, 2026.
FEATURES
• Match your tinnitus frequency with the free tuner.
• Create sound therapy tailored to your frequency.
• Choose from soothing sounds, including rain, ocean surf, and pink noise.
• Download your tracks for offline listening.
• Prepare your own notched music on audionotch.com and listen in the app.
FREE AND PAID ACCESS
The tinnitus frequency tuner is free to use. Creating, downloading, and listening to personalized sound therapy requires an account with active paid access. Existing AudioNotch customers can sign in with their account.
HOW IT WORKS
Match the pitch of your tinnitus with the tuner, then choose a sound. AudioNotch removes a band of sound around your matched frequency to create your personalized notched sound therapy.
To use your own music, prepare it on audionotch.com using a desktop computer, then sync and listen in the app.
ABOUT THE CLINICAL STUDY
Patients assigned to receive free access to AudioNotch had a greater reduction in Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) scores than the standard-care group: an adjusted difference of 10.02 points. At six weeks, 70% of the AudioNotch group were using notched sound therapy, compared with 32% of the standard-care group.
Therapy use was not significantly associated with changes in THI. The researchers noted that perceived support, empowerment, and accountability may help explain the improvement. Individual results vary.
