Many people use white noise for sleep, but all-night playback can affect deep sleep quality and increase battery drain.
Solution
Understand the problem with all-night playback
Studies show continuous sound stimulation can reduce deep sleep proportion. Your brain still processes sound information after falling asleep.
Use auto-stop on sleep
Hushbay detects your sleep state through phone sensors and automatically stops playback. No need to set a timer -- it knows when you've fallen asleep.
Give your brain a quiet deep sleep environment
Stopping sound after you fall asleep lets your brain enter deep sleep in a quiet environment for better recovery.

FAQ
How does auto-stop know when I'm asleep?
It uses the phone accelerometer to detect changes in body movement. After falling asleep, body movement decreases significantly and tossing frequency drops.
