Description
From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.
Binaural beats music is used by people all over the world as a form of ‘brainwave entrainment’ – a process used to entrain the brain into different states that contribute positively to well-being and personal-development.
What most people don’t realize is that although the creation of binaural beats music has only been possible through technological advancement in the last 100 or so years, the use of this natural science dates back thousands of years.
Ancient cultures were aware of how the brain could be entrained through sound repetition well before modern science was able to prove the process. Of course, in centuries past, societies didn’t refer to this science as binaural beats, but what they did know was that consistent, rhythmic sound had extremely powerful healing and spiritual benefits.
We developed this Binaural Beats app in 2010 after we’ve learned about binaural beats and used them ourselves to solve sleeping issues due to the stress of our modern busy lives, something that most of us experience today unfortunately.
Through the years we’ve received amazing feedbacks from our users, which gives us the motivation and the energy to continue to improve the app. Check out all our reviews :-)
We’ve developed different types of presets : sleep, meditation, focus & attention, faster learning, pain reduction, creativity, anxiety reduction ….
It may take some time of practice to feel the effects of binaural beats so don’t give up after your first try.
We really recommend first time users to check out our Facebook (http://on.fb.me/lBDvPK) and Google+ (http://bit.ly/FBBTGP) communities. We have a manual which explains how to use the app (volume, headphones, ...) and describe the different BB presets. In these communities you can also discover all the feedbacks from our users and share your questions !
This app is FREE, with NO ADS and it’s an OPEN SOURCE project. You can support us by helping in the development, the design, the translation or you can donate through the app.
Note this is the original free application, anything else on the market is a copy and could be a fraudulent version.

* A LITTLE MORE ABOUT BINAURAL BEATS "
Binaural Beats were discovered in 1839 by Heinrich Wilhelm Dove, and earned greater public awareness in the late 20th century based on claims that binaural beats help induce relaxation, meditation, creativity and other desirable mental states. The effect on the brainwaves depends on the difference in frequencies of each tone, for example, if 300 Hz was played in one ear and 310 in the other, then the Binaural beat would have a frequency of 10 Hz.
