Oto: Tinnitus Sounds & Support
Health & FitnessÜber diese App
At the center of the app is a library of calming sounds you can listen to any time, day or night. Around the sounds sit short guided sessions and lessons about tinnitus.
What's in the app
• Calming sounds: white, pink and brown noise, nature and environmental sounds, and layered soundscapes you can mix yourself
• Volume control and an optional sleep timer, so you can leave sounds running overnight
• Short guided sessions of about 5 to 10 minutes, drawing on cognitive behavioral techniques. They sit alongside the sounds, as part of the plan your clinic sets up
• Short lessons about tinnitus, so you understand what is going on and why
• Optional reminders, private notes, and simple progress tracking you and your audiologist can look at together
How you use it
1. Your audiologist sets up your account and shows you where to start
2. Listen to the sounds when you want them, and work through the sessions at the pace you agree together
3. Your audiologist reviews how you are getting on and adjusts your plan
How do I get Oto?
Oto comes as part of a tinnitus care plan from a participating audiology clinic. There is no separate app subscription to buy.
If your audiologist or ENT has not mentioned Oto, ask them about it. You can also find a participating clinic here:

What does it cost?
Your clinic sets the price of the care plan, and the Oto app is included. Your clinic also sets how long you keep access: most give around 12 months, and some give lifetime access. Full detail here:

Bewertungen
why did you guys change this app only to use if you use one of their providers? it used to be free sounds. I used to like this app but now it sucks!
I would give this 4 stars because it really was helpful. My doctor met with the developer and loved it enough to recommend it to me. Recently, it was upgraded and now won't even work unless you select a provider. Mineisn't on the list despite knowing the person behind the app. i'd hoped to use the app to help me sleep tonight.
7-26-26 app forces you to find a provider and pay fees now. it used to be great. Now it sucks, and I agree with another review, hearing 'specialists' have no clue what to do about tinnitus. I know, I went to a local audiologist, they said I was fine & no solutions. Better luck on Youtube. My rating went from 4 stars to 1. please fix this. Update 7-16-2025 The app has been working better and doesn't crash too much. Worth using for tinnitus sound and relief if it works with your phone.
Get ready for a lot of breathing. Says don't think of bad days as 'spikes' but then uses the word 'spike'. I've never thought of bad days as spikes. It's ok but not sure it's worth the money.
This app is a CON. I wish I could give negative stars. It REQUIRES you to search for a "hearing specialist" to 'guide' you, for which they CHARGE you. First off, 'hearing specialist's' refuse to help....because they know NOTHING about Tinnitus, so what in the world are they charging all of that money for?? This app is a lie and an insult. There is no help for tinnitus. Specialist's will tell you that. Call any "hearing" specialist and ask yourself. They will tell you this over the phone.
Auto charges you $120ish for 90d of what can otherwise be youtubed. The app is technically good, it's just not competitive *at all*.
