YOUR PHONE’S HIDDEN SLEEP SOLUTION

HOW TO ACTIVATE ITS WHITE NOISE FEATURE

Falling asleep is often easier said than done. While we might feel exhausted when crawling into bed, that doesn’t always translate to drifting off quickly. This frustrating problem can be due to many things like racing thoughts, caffeine consumption too late in the day, or nearby noises that keep us awake. If your sleeping problems result from the last item on that list, white noise can help. According to the Sleep Foundation, white noise is “a noise that contains all frequencies across the spectrum of audible sound in equal measure.” Due to its unique sound, it’s been proven to “reduce crying in infants, improve work performance, potentially counteract symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and help people sleep.”

best guess is that since it contains the sounds of all frequencies equally, it does an excellent job of masking any background noises behind it — like, for example, your neighbor’s stereo system, passing cars, or whatever else is going on around you when you’re trying to drift off. So, you’re probably wondering how or where you can acquire this magical “white noise.” You’ll be happy to learn that if you own a smartphone, you already have it! iPhone and Android users have built-in features that create white noise, so the only thing standing between you and a peaceful night’s sleep is turning it on.

Ask your Digital Assistant to “play white noise.” (You can do this by holding the Home button or saying, “Hey, Google” before “play white noise.”) And that’s it! If you try simple white noise and find it isn’t your thing, both iPhones and Androids have many options. If you have an iPhone, you’ll see the other options when you select “Balanced Noise,” but if you have an Android, you can ask your Assistant, “What are your ambient sound options?” Sweet dreams!

FOR IPHONE USERS: 1. Open your Settings. 2. Tap on “Accessibility.” 3. Select “Audio/Visual.” 4. Tap on “Background Sounds.”

Scientists aren’t exactly sure how white noise does all of these things, but their
