Pairing my interest in binaural and audio therapy, I made an application that I couldn’t find elsewhere. An application that allows me to combine various binaural presets along with environmental audio of my choosing – with the ability to generate and save my own favorite frequencies and beat spreads. And the app keeps track of which main presets are being played and for how long.
I built something much more rudimentary when I was working at Bose – as an experiment – that only allowed for the playback and combination of different audio masking looped audio. In search of great combinations that could be cross-faded into a user’s experience based on the environmental audio around them. Dynamic masking.
So without the machine learning and microphone input for this (I could try and use Foundation Models and the mics on a phone to replicate), this has more environmental audio and its paired with my own audio tone generation engine with binaural left/right stereo separation. And it allowed me to learn a few new things in SwiftUI.
Luckily I managed to get it approved by App Review in record time and it’s available today. It’s for iOS 26+ as I am using Liquid Glass and I didn’t want to sprinkle ifs around my source treating things differently.
The video here is slightly older than the version that’s awaiting review right now with progress and time recording. A few other improvements visually as well.
What am I listening to right now? Divine (Healing) at around 65% volume, with Ambient turned on and at 50%. It’s a nice combination and after a while you almost don’t notice anything playing at all. I am using AirPod Pro 2 at the moment, hoping to be able to get the 3s in the near future.
