Always Tired? These Apps Will Help You Sleep Better

With a blog name like 2 Wired 2 Tired, you can guess that I’m always on the lookout for the best ways to get a good night’s sleep! I’m always interested in the best beds, pillows, sleep tips, sound machines, sleep trackers, and even more.

Apps To Help You Sleep BetterDid you know that there are even a number of apps that can help you sleep better at night? I have many favorites and since there so many out there today, I thought it would be fun to share these apps to help you sleep better and hopefully they’ll help you too.

White Noise

White Noise AppThe White Noise app allows you to pick your favorite sounds to relax and calm your mind. It may even help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. I love this app especially if the rest of the family is up late at night or early in the morning, or if I’m traveling. I can turn it on and listen to beach waves crashing, heavy rain, a fan, a cat purring, and more. It also has alarms that slowly fade in, which I like better than being jolted awake. You can even record and mix sounds together and adjust the audio properties. This app is great and has so many features there’s something for everyone looking for a good night’s sleep.

Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock

Sleep Cycle Alarm ClockIf you hate the sound of your alarm as much as I do, then you will love the Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock app. This app analyzes your sleep patterns and then picks the moment you are sleeping the lightest (within a half-hour window that you define) to rouse you gently. No extra hardware is needed and if you have an iPhone, it doesn’t even need to be on your bed it can sit on your nightstand. It also is designed to work well with two people in bed and you can even compare your sleep to the rest of the world.

SnoreLab

Snore LabHave you ever wondered if you snored or just how bad you might be snoring? Snoring can interrupt sleep and cause you to wake up feeling exhausted and make it tough to get through the day. With the SnoreLab app you can set it to record your snoring and discover your Snore Score. You can even track your snoring. The reviews for this app in the App Store rave about it, with even one person saying the app helped them figure out how tightly he needed to attach his mask for his CPAP machine. He recorded himself snoring the first few nights and tightened it each night, and then the third night he didn’t snore at all and now he sleeps better. This app is a great way to discover if you snore and if any of the remedies you are trying are working.

These are some of my favorite apps that help you sleep better. They all offer features that allow you to wake up refreshed and ready to go. Whether you are looking for relaxing sounds, a gradual wake up, to tell whether you are snoring, an analysis of your sleep patterns, or an app to help you power nap, these apps have it all and are here to help you get the sleep you are looking for.

    I have a hard time staying asleep once I finally do get to sleep. Hopefully one of these apps will do the trick for me.

    Mostly I am a nightowl. I always have been. It isnt good, and needs to change, but for me I think it is just part of life. I like these apps, but dont use a smartphone. I think it could help people who wanted to find out if they are getting enough rest and want to change their lives.

    Thanks for this excellent roundup, Tesa. As someone who is developing relaxation/sleeping music and guided relaxations for children, this is close to my heart. I would also encourage anyone playing sleep or relaxation music on phone/tablet to do so using an external speaker system/dock/bluetooth etc in order to produce a fuller, warmer sound. The real world contains more than just treble and mid range, which is all these mobile devices are really able to produce by themselves. Keep up the good work.

    WOW, how crazy and amazing these seem. I know there are two I will definitely going to try!

Hey there! I’m Tesa, the mom behind 2 Wired 2 Tired. The blog got its name because we have two kids born a year apart and my husband, Dave, and I always joked that "the kids were too wired and we were too tired!" :)

Fast forward a bit—now the kids are off to college (how did that happened so fast!) and since 2009, I’ve been blogging through the chaos, coffee in hand, finding the best in family, travel, and tech—because honestly, who has time for bad gadgets and boring trips?

So, whether you're searching for family travel inspiration, tech gadgets, or tips to enhance family life, you're in the right place because the fun (and the coffee) is always brewing around here!
