Terms of Use

Layrest ยท Last updated October 27, 2026

These terms cover your use of Layrest, an app that plays sounds for sleep, rest and focus. By downloading or using Layrest, you agree to them.

What Layrest is

Layrest plays recorded and generated sounds, including noise colors, binaural beats and an optional rhythmic "pulse" in volume. It's a relaxation tool, not a medical device, and isn't intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition, including sleep disorders or tinnitus. Talk to a doctor about ongoing sleep problems.

Keep the volume at a comfortable, low level, especially with headphones and when listening for long periods or overnight. If you have epilepsy or a seizure disorder, check with a doctor before using binaural beats or the pulse feature, and stop using any sound that makes you feel unwell.

Layrest Pro

Some sounds and features are free to use. Layrest Pro is an optional auto-renewing subscription (or one-time lifetime purchase, where offered) that unlocks the full sound library, more layers, pulse journeys, custom timer lengths and saved mixes. Subscription price, billing period, and any free-trial length are shown before you buy, on the purchase screen itself and in the store's own purchase confirmation (the App Store on iPhone, Google Play on Android).

On both:

On iPhone, all payments are processed by Apple under Apple's own Media Services Terms and Conditions. Refunds are handled by Apple, not by us. Request one through reportaproblem.apple.com.

On Android, all payments are processed by Google Play under the Google Play Terms of Service. Refund requests go through Google Play. See Request a refund on Google Play.

The sounds

The sounds in the app are generated by us, used with the recordist's permission, or in the public domain. They're licensed to you for personal listening inside the app only. Don't extract, redistribute or resell them.

Your data

Layrest stores what it needs to function directly on your device, not on a server we run. See the Privacy Policy for the specifics.

Acceptable use

Layrest is for personal, non-commercial use. Don't reverse-engineer, resell, or redistribute the app or its content, or use it in any way that violates applicable law.

No warranty

Layrest is provided "as is." We've built it carefully, but we don't guarantee it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for any particular purpose. To the extent permitted by law, we're not liable for any damages arising from your use of the app.

Changes

These terms may be updated as the app changes. Continuing to use Layrest after an update means you accept the revised terms.
