Soundscapes that
match the world outside
Rain, ocean waves, birdsong, soft noise — generated live on your iPhone, playing on even when the screen is locked. Flip on Match the weather and Picksy listens to the sky: raining outside? You hear rain. Sunny? Birds. Hot summer day? Waves.
Plus opt-in fun: a tiny trombone when you sail past your daily goal, a victory fanfare when you win a duel — and a retro game-over when you don't. 🎺
