Dark Noise is an easy-to-use and straightforward ambient noise app developed for iOS (available on iPad, iPhone, and... iPod Touch (I guess)). It's a well-crafted app that features over 40 different ambient sounds and integrates into Shortcuts and Apple's widget framework for easy accessibility.

I have a bit of a soft spot for the iPhone SE (both the 2020 and the outgoing 2016 model). I can't explain to you what it is, except to say that I know it's not rational, some sort of reality distortion field washes over me when I use this device. Nevertheless, this is hardly a review, just some impressions that stood out after using the phone for a week.

I wanted to compile a few of my thoughts on the podcast player Cosmicast I’ve seen making the rounds. I’ve broken down my impressions of the app into three categories: what I love, what I dislike, and features I’d wish for in future updates of the app.
