App Description
Raindrops is a minimalistic player designed to immerse you in the soothing sound of rain, accompanied by calming visual effects of falling raindrops. Gain a sense of control over the rain: it falls or stops as you play or pause the player. Use Raindrops to unwind, concentrate on tasks, or drift into a restful sleep. A built-in sleep timer ensures the rain stops when you're off to dreamland.
