Your iPhone Has a Secret Feature That Can Help You Fall Asleep


Didn’t know you had white noise on your iPhone? Well, you do—and you can set up this useful hidden feature in just four easy steps.

Even on the best of days, life can be overwhelming. Noise, distraction and anxiety can make it hard to relax, fall asleep or simply focus. But we have some good news for you: There’s a hidden iPhone hack that can help you get the peace and quiet you’re craving. Background Sounds is a handy iOS feature that lets you play white noise on your iPhone and mercifully drown out the disruption around you. Loud traffic? Barking dogs? Noisy guests in the hotel room next to yours? See ya!

Unfortunately, you won’t find “white noise” easily labeled on your phone. Here’s how to locate the white noise on your iPhone and turn it on, step by step:

Head to Settings > Accessibility.

Select Audio & Visual.

From there, search for Background Sounds, and toggle it on.

Select Sound to choose which noise you want to play in the background.

The background sound will start playing as soon as you toggle it on. 

You can also adjust other settings in Background Sounds, such as volume level and the option to keep the white noise on when your iPhone is playing other media. 

Once you’ve set it up, you’re done!
