Find calm in the noise.

Serenity masks tinnitus with soothing, layered soundscapes you mix to taste — and a simple daily journal helps you see how your ringing changes over time.

Runs in your browser on any phone, tablet, or computer. Nothing to download — though you can install it like an app.

The basics

What is tinnitus?

Tinnitus is the perception of sound — ringing, buzzing, hissing, or whooshing — when no outside source is present. It's common: roughly 1 in 10 adults experience it, and most people learn to live with it.

It's a symptom, not a disease in itself. It's often associated with hearing loss, but can also be triggered or worsened by loud noise, earwax, ear infections, certain medications, jaw tension, stress, and poor sleep.

Most cases never go away completely — but for many people it becomes far less intrusive over time, especially with the right support.

The Serenity approach

How Serenity helps

Three simple habits, built into one app.

1

Build your soundscape

Layer ocean waves, rain, forest, and pink or brown noise. Each layer has its own volume, so the mix is exactly what you find soothing.

2

Mask & relax

Steady, low-frequency sound fills the quiet moments where the ringing is loudest. A sleep timer fades everything out gently as you drift off.

3

Track & spot patterns

Log your level from 1 to 10 in five seconds each day. The 7-day view shows trends you can bring to your doctor or hearing specialist.

Why masking helps — in plain language

Tinnitus is usually loudest when it's quiet. A gentle layer of sound raises the "floor" of what you hear, so the ringing has less to contrast against. It doesn't silence the ringing — it takes the edges off.

Over weeks of consistent use, many people experience habituation: the brain gradually files the ringing under "unimportant background" and stops flagging it. Serenity supports that process. It is a supportive self-care tool, not a cure.

FAQ

Common questions

Is Serenity really free?

Yes — completely. No subscription, no ads, no account, no premium tier.

Do I need headphones?

Not for the soundscapes — speakers work fine, including for background use. For the binaural tone, headphones are needed to hear the effect.

Will this cure my tinnitus?

No tool — app, device, or supplement — is proven to cure tinnitus. Serenity is a masking and habituation aid: many people find their ringing less intrusive with consistent use, and it gives you data to discuss with a hearing professional. If your ringing is new, sudden, one-sided, or pulsing, see a doctor.

Why do I have to tap before sound starts?

Browsers require a user gesture before audio can play. One tap on the play button (or the "Tap to start" banner) and it takes care of itself.

Does it work offline?

Yes. All sounds are generated on your device and the app is installable (Add to Home Screen), so it works with no connection — handy for travel and sleep.

Is my journal data private?

Yes. Entries are stored only in your own browser's local storage on your own device. Clearing browser data removes them; there is no server copy to leak or sell.
