A:AnswerI love love love these earbuds - until my ear,canals get totally itchy and enflames. I have a latex and adhesive allergy and these earbuds have caused me nothing but problems. I wanted them to work solo bad that I tested for 3 weeks, letting ears heal then trying one at a time - the same allergic reaction happened every time. So very sad because everything but the $250 price tage was awesome... Hope this helps
A:AnswerThey actually work pretty well for that. I had the same issue, and use them when it really gets to me. I have to put them a little bit louder to mask the snoring, but it does work.
A:AnswerI have tinnitus, and I still have it after I wake up using My tinnitus is always worse in the morning so it doesn't matter if I have the Sounds in my ear. You can adjust the volume level and turn it down and just have enough volume to help you go to sleep. It doe not make it worse. I have had tinnitus since th Marine Corp, Its loud all of the time and the sounds help drown it out.
A:AnswerThat is correct. These Bose - Noise-masking sleepbuds - White are marketed as White and in fact, when received, are confirmed to be white in color.
A:AnswerYou absolutely can.
they are noise blocking by nature and then when you use the Bose Sleepbuds app, you can add more ambient sounds (campfire, rain, white noise, etc) to add more to that. I use them at the office all the time!
A:AnswerThey help to a degree. The volume is adjustable but even at full volume, it's not real loud. However some of the sounds come across as being louder than others (the rain events for example) but the "warm static" is not loud at all, so some of the sounds more or less "mix" with the ringing rather than wipe it out. The one that probably wipes it out the best is the "campfire" as it has crickets in the background which is near the same frequency as the ringing but I find the sound kind of harsh compared to the more mellow options. The earbuds are super comfortable and the sounds are well implemented with good fidelity as you might expect from Bose. The tinnitus is fairly new for me and varies in intensity but seems to be worse when I try to sleep. Some nights I just run the warm noise generator (which might disturb others) but sometimes I will wake up in the middle of the night and put in these earphones and I think they help me get back to sleep. I think it's worth a try with the 14 day return period.
A:AnswerHello, there.
Thank you for your interest in the Noise-masking sleepbuds. The available soothing sounds at this time are:
Rustle: Wind kicking up leaves.
Cascade: A cascading waterfall.
Shower: Gentle rain falling on leaves.
Circulate: A fan with an electrical undertone, like an air conditioner.
Altitude: Airplane cabin ambient noise.
Swell: Rolling and crashing waves.
Campfire: Crackling fire and softly chirping crickets.
Warm static: Broadband noise with high-frequency content removed (also known as “brown” noise).
Downstream: A gentle stream.
Tranquility: A drone-like melody that some might also refer to as a spa-like sound.
We would recommend contacting Best Buy to see if a demo is available in-store. We hope this helps! Have a great day.

A:AnswerThis has the option of playing all night and a timer if you wish it to turn off after 30/45/60/90 mins or 2/4/6/8 hours. Not able to set a customized time but this doesn't really bother me cause I find that I use it throughout the night. Hope this helps!
A:AnswerHey Jerryl,
Thanks for your question. There should be a level of charge out of the box, but we would recommend fully charging them before their first use.
A:AnswerHello, Susan.
Thank you for your question. The Noise-masking sleepbuds are currently engineered to operate with a consistent connection to a device running the Bose Sleep app. We are working on a "phone-free" mode, as we certainly have spoken with customers enjoy sleeping with their phones either turned off or outside of the bedroom.

A:AnswerYes, you do need something running the app, it's the control panel of sorts since they didn't want to put any buttons on it to maximize comfort I guess. However, you do NOT need to have internet connection once the app is already installed and working. In other words, it will work for your scenario if you have your phone or tablet with you to turn it on, even if you have zero wifi or cellular connectivity.
A:Answerthese don't play music... they play white noise sounds like a babbling brook or a stream. the problem is they don't work... known defect causes them to stop charging after a period ranging from a week to several months.
