Awesome! I've been using Noisli for quite a while and really look forward to the Chrome version! Any plans for an Android version?
Stefano Merlo
Sure ;) http://www.noisli.com/apps And thanks for the great feedback! @lehrjulian

I currently use Noisli on my Macbook when commuting on the train. It's simple to use and allows me to mix different sounds to get the right combination. I'm not sure I would want to stream this from the web and incour the cell charges for background noise, though. I would stick with the Mac application and hope that it gets some of these updates.
Stefano Merlo
Thank you @fbara for the feedback. We are not available as a mac app yet :) But, you do have offline sounds with our iOS app.
Frank
@stefanomerlo Ok, I feel like an idiot. On my mac I use a different app that is spelled and sounds very similar to Noisli. That's what I get for commenting before I've had my morning coffee....
Stefano Merlo
Haha!! Don't worry Frank! If you want to use the original one then give Noisli a try and let me know what you think :) @fbara
Stefano Merlo
@andrzejb200sx @fbara we have an iOS app where all the sounds are available offline.

Went to the Launch Hackathon and wanted to get a few hours of sleep – so I popped my headphones on to Noisli!
Stefano Merlo
That's awesome Tom :) What's your magic combo? @thomasmeagher
Stefano Merlo
That's great! I've added a bit of Wind :) ☔💨🔥 http://www.noisli.com/get_combo_... @thomasmeagher

I use http://noiz.io/ because they have a Mac app in the menu bar. But, I'm really liking the ability to click a button on Noisli and generate a random sound instead of trying to mix my own. I think the only thing your missing is a Mac app (which I'm sure is coming in the future) to make this my go-to product.
Stefano Merlo
Thank you Parker for the feedback!! We are working hard to add some new additions to our product family :) http://www.noisli.com/apps @parkeragee

@parkeragee This was the app I was referring to in my post earlier. This is a good app and I hope Noisli can come up with something similar.

@stefanomerlo: I love this product. I switch between this and Spotify for background noise while working. Thanks for building it!
Jose Niño Pérez
This is very well made. The design gives a beautiful and accurate heads up to what the service is going to be. Great job.

When I first found this through Chrome extensions store, I did not expect Noisli to have such a big impact on my focus and productivity. From now on, I take it with me to every office I move and every computer I use. Noisli is a must-have for an open office and helps you stay sane even when the world around is crushing down.

Pros:

flexible and customizable mixing controls, favorite presets sync across devices

Cons:

I'm a fan, using it for over a year and am pretty happy with it

Ambient noise increases productivity! What better way to supercharge your day.

Pros:

Simple yet necessary app. I usually use it for audio only, but the color changing feature is a nice touch.

Cons:

None.

Hey, this doesn't work for me in Chrome or Firefox. I have no issues using YouTube or other streaming sites. Any ideas?
Milton Ardila

Por favor no abandonen esta App.

Pros:

Minimalista, Efectivo, Colorido y con un procesador de texto!

Cons:

Algún pequeño lag.

Francesco Mari
Absolutely love it! :-) It's just missing a good *osx version* (would buy it instantly) - and a *hair dryer sound* (it seems stupid, but http://bit.ly/1OzHZy1 this video has 8+ million views, so... 😉
Timothy Youngs

Great tool for blocking out noise when I'm at a coffee shop!

Pros:

Easy-to-use platform and super realistic sounds.

Cons:

Limited white noise options.

@stefanomerlo I'm curious what inspired you to make Noisli.
Stefano Merlo
Thanks for asking @rrhoover Noisli was born out of a personal need. I was working as a freelance designer from home and had a hard time focusing and being motivated. The thing is that if you work in total silence (e.g from home) or in a noisy place (e.g. co-working space) it has a huge impact on your productivity and can decrease it a lot. In my case the silence and the fact that I wasn't surrounded by other colleagues made me feel isolated and decreasing my focus. I'm very curious about science and I knew the benefits that background noises can have for your productivity, but no tool available was really satisfying my needs and giving me the user experience I was searching for. Well, that night I decided to create my own tool and basically Noisli was born :)

I'm one of those people who like focusing at work without being distracted. Noisli is definitely helping me with this. I'm looking forward to a Mac app as well :)
Stefano Merlo
Thank you for the support Quadri :) If you have any other feedback just ping me anytime @qoshibotu
Darren J Smith
I'm a big fan of rainymood for focusing down, but I'm going to give this a go!
Stefano Merlo
That's great Darren!! Any feedback you might have is very welcome so we can further improve the service :) @darrenux
Manuel Moser
One of the best things i discovered. Maybe they will release a mac (menubar) app soon.
Stefano Merlo

Noisli is no longer free, whispr.tech is a good free alternative!
