Tinnitus Toolkit: Sound & CBT

Tinnitus Toolkit brings evidence-based tinnitus sound therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) tools together in one private, offline app — built for people who want to understand and manage tinnitus, ringing in the ears, and the distress and sleeplessness that come with it.

Tinnitus distress comes largely from how the brain responds to the sound, not from the sound itself. Tinnitus Toolkit is designed around that principle: reducing the attention, threat, and effort that keep tinnitus in the foreground, using sound therapy and CBT approaches grounded in published research.

SOUND THERAPY FOR TINNITUS
Five distinct, individually adjustable sound therapies, each based on a published approach:


Enriched Acoustic Environment (EAE) — broadband sound shaped to your own hearing profile
Band-gap (notched) noise
Flanking Band noise
SMR decorrelation
Frequency Matching
You stay in full manual control of every parameter — useful for tinnitus masking, relief, focus, and winding down.


CBT FOR TINNITUS
A structured cognitive behavioural therapy course covering how tinnitus distress is maintained and how to reduce it — including attention training, response work, and re-engaging with everyday life.

SLEEP & TINNITUS (CBT-I)
A dedicated six-lesson module applying cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) to the specific problem of sleep and tinnitus — one of the most common and distressing aspects of the condition. Learn to fall asleep more easily and respond to bad nights without making them worse.

HEARING PROFILE & FREQUENCY TOOLS
An in-app hearing check personalises your sound therapy, and a frequency-matching tool helps you characterise your tinnitus pitch.

PROGRESS TRACKING
Track your tinnitus over time with the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) questionnaire and session history.

ACCESSIBILITY
Full text transcripts accompany the CBT audio lessons, shown one line at a time in a clean, readable reader — for hard-of-hearing users or anyone who prefers to read along.

BUILT FOR PRIVACY


Works fully offline — no internet connection needed to use the therapies
No ads
No accounts, no tracking, no data collection — everything stays on your device


GROUNDED IN RESEARCH
Every therapy in the app is based on peer-reviewed literature, and the companion website maintains an ongoing summary of new tinnitus research. We are deliberately careful not to overstate what the evidence shows: these are management tools, not a cure for tinnitus.

WHO IT'S FOR
People living with tinnitus, ringing or buzzing in the ears, noise-induced hearing changes, or tinnitus-related sleep problems, who want accessible, self-directed, evidence-informed tools.

IMPORTANT
Tinnitus Toolkit is a self-management tool and does not replace professional medical advice. If you have sudden hearing changes, pain, dizziness, or new symptoms, please consult a doctor or audiologist.
