Free · No sign-up required · 5 ambient loops bundled
Five ambient sound loops, built in
Rain
Steady rainfall. Softens distractions, easy to tune out.
Café
Low hum of a coffee shop. Familiar background noise without the conversation.
Birds
Morning birdsong. Calm, natural, and unobtrusive.
Fireplace
Crackling fire. Warm and grounding for long study sessions.
Ocean
Rolling waves. Slow rhythm that's easy to work alongside.
Your Spotify
Prefer your own playlists? Embed Spotify directly on the focus page alongside the timer.
Oh — and you get paid.
Every completed focus session earns virtual salary at your chosen hourly rate. Put that salary to work in a simulated stock portfolio. Streaks unlock badge bonuses. The ambient sound is just the start.
Questions about ambient sounds
- Are the ambient sounds free?
- Yes. All five loops — rain, café, birds, fireplace, and ocean — are bundled with the app at no cost. No subscription, no account required.
- Can I use Spotify instead?
- Yes. StudySalary includes a Spotify embed card on the focus page so you can play your own playlists alongside the timer.
- Do sounds keep playing during breaks?
- Yes. The ambient sound player is independent of the timer phase, so it continues playing through breaks and between sessions unless you pause it manually.
