Mindwave 2 tones have been meticulously designed to produce the greatest neural response during EEG tests.

Binaural beats are great and they work for most people but we found that other methods tend to be more effective and more flexible, such as Isochronic tones.

Technical Description of isochronic beats:
Isochronic tones are regular beats of a single tone used for brainwave entrainment. The interference pattern that produces the beat is outside the brain so headphones are not required (use with a dock), but since isochronic tones are more pronounced, the stimuli is even stronger with the use of headphones/ear buds.

Pros and cons of Mind Wave 2 app for iPhone and iPad

Mind Wave 2 app good for

miss a favorite function for my self or a notepad (or diary) to remember what tone worked how
. I usually have alot of thoughts racing before going to bed but I fall asleep pretty fast while listening to this app. I bet listening to sounds of the ocean would probably work the same for me but for 2 bucks its already paid itself off.
Modern design, great beats, nice foreground sounds. Sleep with theta tones every night. Would like to see tones and timing tailored for a full sleep cycle or full nights sleep. Id say the mind wave apps are my favorite apps on the iPhone. Good job.
Works pretty good but it would be better if there was a lucid dreaming tone like some of the other apps have.
This is a great app. I use it to sleep, and focus, and this is one of the few apps I use everyday. A lucid dream tone would be nice, as would some of the others included in the first mind wave app. Also, some new background noises would be nice.
I listen to it every night, It helps to put me into a deep deep sleep. It would be wonderful if a weightloss setting could be added.

Some bad moments

Still 2 broken tracks. When they updated the app they could have fixed it. I loved this app when it worked!
I have two major problems with this app. 1. The timer is broken. If you u plan on using this for dreams/sleep/insomnia you will wake up with a dead phone. 2. The tracks dont LOOP. Each track runs for about 10 minutes. Fades. And starts over. This is guaranteed to break your meditation. Creating looping tracks is so easy that this is unforgiveable. As it is its useless. Nobody meditates in 10 minute increments. The tracks actually cause me anxiety every time they restart. Uninstalling until fixed. Mindwave, try actually using your products before publishing.
I cannot give this more than one star until they change the fact that the loops fade out then restart. I use these apps to sleep to. I am a very light sleeper and having the noise disappear and then reappear every five or ten minutes is enough to wake me. This is useless as is.
The product is adequate. However, trying to to locate the track thats playing and shut off is very difficult. Theres twenty-four tracks in all and there is no "now playing" function which informs you which track is currently playing (if Im operating another app) as does the Itunes player. So now I have to shut off my Ipod Touch just to termiate the track. Also, went thourgh all twenty-four tracks to locate the stop function. No dice.
This app has the same problem that many (not all) similar app have. They dont list the frequencies used. I want to know more than just what effects people are supposed to experienced. For example, theres one track for Schumann Resonance. Well, thats nice and all but which frequency are they using? There are seven different Schumann Resonance frequencies ranging from 7.83Hz to 45.0Hz. 7.83 being the first and some claim to be the most effective. Theres a reason why its important to know the frequency being used. Some frequencies are more effective than other at achieving the desire effect. Using an app without knowing what frequency(ies) is being used is like someone giving a pill to help you become smarter but you have no idea what in it. Wouldnt you want to know?
Of the various "noise makers" out there, this is one of the cruddier ones. The tones loop in and out every few minutes into complete silence and the fading in again. They try and cover it with goofy casino keyboard music, but it doesnt work. Theres also very bold claims made about releasing seratonin, hgh, and accelerated healing backed with no information. Im pretty sure SleepStream is free and significantly better.
