onlyWAVES: Ocean Sleep Sounds

Nothing but waves.

onlyWAVES is one quiet ocean you put on and let go of. Open it and you're on a single, slow-rolling sea. A wave comes in. It holds for a moment. It rolls back out. Then the next one. That's the whole app. No courses. No streaks. Just waves.

A REAL OCEAN — NOT AI
The waves you hear are real recordings, shaped by hand by an independent composer — not an AI generator, not a synth, not stacked noise layers. A real person made this, and that matters.

SPATIAL AUDIO — PUT HEADPHONES ON
The sea opens out around you instead of sitting between your ears. Real binaural processing built from measured ear filtering, not a stereo widener. It's free, it's on out of the box, and it's one tap to turn off.

SIX PLACES, INCLUDED
• Lighthouse Beach — slow ocean waves over a calm tonal bed
• Hidden Cove — a softer, gentler shoreline to sink into
• Big Surf — deeper, rolling sets that swell and recede
• Rockpoint Pier — steady waves against the pilings
• Rippers Pass — open-water swell with room to let the day go
• Pebble Shores — the soft wash of water over smooth stones
(Imagined coastal escapes, crafted from real water recordings.)

TEN MORE, WITH ONE PURCHASE
10,000 Breaths Beach, Ohana Beach, Tide Pools, Dragons Back Island, Bay of Flames, Basshead Lake, Whitecap Cliffs, Grotto Zaffiro, Winter's Lee and Snow Beach — plus eight full-screen visualizers that move with the water. One purchase, yours to keep, no subscription. They download once, then play offline.

SET IT AND LET GO
• Wave rhythm — set how often the waves roll in, slow or steady
• Sleep timer — fades softly down to silence so it won't play all night
• A calm, near-black screen that dims itself and won't light up your room
• Plays offline. No ads. No account. No sign-up. Nothing to learn.

IT KEEPS PLAYING
Lock the screen and the waves keep rolling. Play and pause from the Lock Screen. It ignores the ring/silent switch, so a silenced phone still plays.

WHO IT'S FOR
For anyone who lies awake with a busy mind and just wants to come down. For people who tried the big wellness apps and bounced off the courses and badges. For light sleepers who want one beautiful, quiet thing instead of a hundred sounds to mix. Put it on for sleep, to wind down, to focus, or just to fill a silent room.

Made by one independent composer (Ambiwell) — shaped by hand, never generated by AI.

onlyWAVES is free to download with six places and spatial audio included. The ten more places and the visualizers are one optional purchase. If it helps you sleep, there's also a tip jar behind the heart in the top-left corner — it supports the composer directly and unlocks nothing.

Not a meditation course. Not a medical device. Just waves to fall asleep to.
