Beltone Tinnitus Calmer is the strongest app here that costs nothing. Beltone, part of the same GN group as ReSound, uses the same idea: a combination of sounds and relaxing exercises that distract the brain from the tinnitus so it focuses on it less over time. You keep a personal library of sound therapy files and can build your own soundscapes from environmental sounds and short pieces of music. The app tracks your usage, so you can see which sounds help most, and it adds secondary stimuli such as colors and exercises to keep your mind occupied. You listen as you would to music on your phone, and if you wear Beltone wireless hearing aids you can stream straight to them, with the sound adjusted for your hearing loss. The US store page shows the app as free with no in-app purchases. What you give up is structure: there is no CBT program or weekly plan, and Beltone says the app should be used with a plan from a hearing care professional.
