Great app but one big issue. Most people use this app for going to sleep. I understand the ads and the revenue for such wonderful app. But the FULL SCREEN WHITE BACKGROUND ADS need to go! This is helping people go to sleep but a white screen ad only wakes you up when your in the dark going to bed. Otherwise this app is amazing. It has the most REALISTIC THUNDER sounds available. I love the app keep up the good work and please get rid of the full screen white background ads. Thank you

Lightning effects and thunderstorm doesn't seem to be properly spaced-out for the 7 second account that is naturally occurring and would be nice to have a ten band equalizer for the storms so I don't have to mess around with my internal phones equalizing system.

I bought the full version. It's a great idea but it needs to vary the brightness of the flash and it desperately needs more thunder samples including distant rolling thunder.

I love the sound of storms myself and I recommend this app to acclimate children and pets to the sound of storms so real storms won't upset them!! Don't use the lightning flash because it may startle and real lightning is easier on the eyes!

Fantastic app, works easily. The free version is a great test and the price is so reasonable, it's an obvious purchase. Had a question and the dev responded fast. This is just plain good software.

It's a great app but it does not show a Thunderstorm or rain so that's why I gave it only 4 stars. But it makes the noises so even know there's not a Thunderstorm outside when your in your house with headphones in your Ear's with your curtains closed it will feel like there's a Thunderstorm outside of your house. That's cool.

A great simulator for people who have trouble sleeping. It's very nicely organized, and obviously well made. Not many ads, which is great. This can also be played while your phone is off, so it's great.
