White noise that plays all night?

31 replies

Anybody have any suggestions for a white noise machine that plays continuously?

We have a MyHummy for my first which he still uses, but they're quite pricey and I want to avoid spending that much again if I can!

Most I can find only have a 30/60/90 minute maximum play time.

Any suggestions for a 12 hour or even 8 hour white noise machine please?

Thanks in advance!

We use an ipad and a 10 hour white noise video from youtube

Ipad or an old phone and the A Soft Murmur app

We use an echo dot. Also useful for lots of other things!

Just say ‘Alexa play white noise’ and it goes until you tell it to turn off.

this one is great and holds good charge when unplugged also

I had a Ewan the Dream Sheep originally and had the same problem that it only lasted for 20 mins. In the end, I recorded the noise on an old phone and looped it to play until it was turned off.

Been working well for over two years!

We use iPad too but we've downloaded a white noise app.

Spotify has a whole album of 12 hr noise. I have it on right now.

Get an old radio and untune it.
Alternatively, Alexa.

"Alexa, play heavy rain" works for us... It's in the Sleep Sounds skill

Lcb123 · 03/02/2023 10:51

just play on spotify / with a speaker, don't need a special machine

Marpac Hushh Portable White Noise Sound Machine for Baby, 190 g amzn.eu/d/30E11kW
We use this one and it's been great for the last 8m or so.

There are masses on Amazon. We have three for DS and all play continuously.

SquigglePigs · 03/02/2023 10:58

We have this one. You can set a timer if you want but we just turn it on at bedtime and off in the morning.

If you have a tv in the room, YouTube search 'white noise black screen no ads, 12 hours'.

Screen is black so the room remains dark. There are a few good ones. My bub sleeps 12 hours straight so it helps not to rewind the music.

Lonelycrab · 03/02/2023 11:11

Yes YouTube is good for this. You could also try other sounds, maybe campfire sounds or rainfall. Plenty of 12 hour vids. Guess you might need to turn the brightness right down or somehow stop the screen from keeping you awake though.

We just used an old phone with a free app called Baby Sleep. Did the job. My son napped to hair dryers and slept at night to waves.

StampOnTheGround · 03/02/2023 11:15

We have an Alexa in DS's room - all you say is 'Alexa play white noise' and it will play until you ask it to stop!

I use Alexa or YouTube on my phone

fancyfrogs · 03/02/2023 11:16

We've got this one. Continues until you turn it off. Never had any issues with it

We used a tablet and a 10hour YouTube video. There are lots of different sounds to choose from.

amylou8 · 03/02/2023 11:26

I use Alexa. Say Alexa play white noise. Then Alexa loop on. It will then play in 1 hours loops until you turn it off. You only need to loop on the first time as she remembers the setting.

Galadriel90 · 03/02/2023 11:35

I play white noise on repeat via Spotify and a sonos speaker

Whereland · 03/02/2023 11:53

Got this from Amazon, it's great. Plays non stop and has choice of good few different sounds.
