    I also find it strange that folks stream their white noise. I use a self contained app for that. No streaming necessary so even if I’m out of service I can still use it to sleep.

      I used to use a self-contained app before I had a Spotify subscription.

      Now I have one less app on my phone as it’s no longer needed. If I really thought I’d need it out of service, I’d just download the playlist temporarily.

      We stream white noise through Spotify because it means it’ll be there on any device that’s Spotify works on. Phones, tablets, smart speakers, TVs, whatever.
