Why Radio Is Perfect for Sleep

Unlike playlists that have clear beginnings and endings, radio streams continuously — creating a seamless audio blanket that won't jolt you awake. Studies show that consistent, low-volume ambient sound helps mask disruptive noises (traffic, neighbors, snoring) and promotes deeper sleep.

Tips for Better Sleep with Radio

Choose the right genre: Ambient and classical stations are proven to lower heart rate and blood pressure.
Set a sleep timer: Download the OpenTune iOS app and set the timer for 30-60 minutes.
Keep volume low: Barely audible is ideal — just enough to mask environmental noise.
Use headphones wisely: Sleep headphones or a pillow speaker prevents disturbing your partner.
Be consistent: Listening to the same station nightly creates a sleep association in your brain.
