Ambiance is better than other audio relaxation apps because of it's extensive list of audio tracks.

Good Night - 4 stars - November 4, 2009
I fall asleep to this app almost every night.
Love, Love, Love it!! - 5 stars - November 4, 2009
This is the best! I use it for meditations, for concentrating on reading (beta sounds) and artwork, for soothing the nerves, and sleeping. I love the part where you can make different playlists that runs through a series of sounds or you can mix several sounds together to make custom mixed sounds. Also love the timer and alarm features to use for meditations or sleeping. This app is a steal for this price!! It's a must try.
Enjoyable - 4 stars - November 4, 2009
Great features and flexibilty. Not many of the sounds are usable for me, but they are interesting and varied. It does push my 3g to it's limits on complicated requests. Whether it is more valuable than, say, White Noise? The ability to play your tunes while it's working gives this a SLIGHT edge.
Love this ap - 5 stars - November 4, 2009
Easy to use, love the favorites, love the browsing, love the mixing! Use it every night! A must have when traveling and are in a different city all the time!
GREAT - 5 stars - November 4, 2009
