Features & Capabilities

DESCRIPTION:

Drift turns your phone into a sleep companion. Place it face-down on your chest, tap start, and feel gentle vibrations soothe you to sleep — with or without sound.

YOUR PHONE BECOMES A SLEEP TOOL Drift uses your phone's haptic motor to deliver calming vibration patterns directly to your sternum. Research suggests chest vibration may stimulate the vagus nerve — the key nerve that activates your body's relaxation response, slowing heart rate and calming the nervous system.

6 VIBRATION PATTERNS • Breathing — a slow inhale-exhale rhythm that guides your body • Heartbeat — a gentle resting pulse • Gentle Pulse — soft, steady pulsing • Ocean Wave — rolling crescendos that build and recede • Snowfall Drift — light, random flutters like falling snow • Deep Calm — an ultra-low continuous hum

18 REAL-TIME SYNTHESIZED SOUNDS Every sound in Drifa is generated in real-time — no loops, no recordings. The audio is alive, always subtly different, never repetitive.

Nature — Rain, Ocean Waves, Wind, Forest Night, Distant Thunder, Stream. Classic sleep sounds, synthesized fresh every second.

Soundscapes — Evolving ambient textures inspired by generative music. Drift is a warm, slowly shifting drone pad. Crystal shimmers with bell-like tones. Nebula wraps you in filtered noise clouds. Aurora washes through shifting harmonics. Deep Space hums with vast cosmic low-end.

Electronic — A category you won't find in other sleep apps. Inspired by deep house and deep techno, these are warm sub-bass pulses, hypnotic minimal loops, slow dreamy chord progressions, and deep muted industrial rhythms — reimagined for sleep. Tracks like Bunker deliver the muffled, heavy pounding of a faraway Berlin club. Slow Chords drifts through Am, Fmaj7, Cmaj7, and Em with eight-second holds. Midnight layers atmospheric pads over a barely-there kick.

BREATHING SYNC Drifa detects your breathing through the motion of your chest and gradually slows the vibration rhythm, guiding your breathing rate down to a deep, relaxed state. Your body follows the vibration without you needing to think about it.

DESIGNED FOR SLEEP • Screen dims to black automatically • Sleep timer: 15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes • Adjustable vibration intensity and sound volume • Mix any vibration pattern with any sound • Keeps running when the screen locks

Inspired by 'Drifa', the Old Norse word for snowfall, this app is designed to help you Drift — gentle, quiet, effortless. Drift Premium ($0.99/month) unlocks all patterns, all sounds, and Breathing Sync.
