I have the same problem. I can’t speak to this app but I used to be up for at least 2 hours reading on my phone finally falling asleep when I need to get up. What has been working for me the past few months are podcasts. Most times I’m back out in < 1 min. I really like Fall of Civilizations. In a distant second place would be Boring Books for Bedtime or Bedtime with Wikipedia. Really anything that doesn’t have loud noises or ads in the middle that you find soothing.
But yes, not waking up at all at 4am would be great.

- gerad 3y agoI’ve been self medicating with podcasts to solve this exact issue for 5-6 years. I’d advise trying to wean yourself off it before it goes on too long. I now have tinnitus from the earbuds in my ears at night.
- brandall10 3y agoYou can listen at a reasonable level (70dB) indefinitely, and up to about 80 for an 8-hour period, without any kind of hearing loss. So the good news is unless you're absolutely blasting it with open buds to help block out background noise, the tinnitus was caused by something else, and there are many causes. I actually had tinnitus for nearly a decade in my late 20s - mid 30s... thought is was noise induced from multiple concerts without earplugs, but eventually decided to make all sorts of lifestyle changes to reduce stress and improve sleep and it magically went away.
