Welcome to Oto!

We know living with tinnitus is hard. That's why we've made this app as simple as possible to use. All you need to do to get started is hit the play button at the top of the Home Screen and begin your very own tinnitus journey.

How does Oto work?

Oto works by providing you with a number of tools, the first one being Daily Sessions. We recommend you listen to around one Daily Session per day, but you can definitely do more if you’d like or feel you need to.

After you've completed your Daily Session, your next session will always be ready for you on your home screen under 'Continue Program’.

You may also find that the Sound Library is a better place to start. The ‘Sound Library’ allows you to listen to distracting and relaxing sounds that can help take the focus away from your tinnitus. It is important to ensure that the volume is set at a safe level, particularly if you’re using headphones - it is not essential to wear headphones while using the app and their wear purely depends on the individual.

The 'Explore' tab is filled with a variety of topics you would've covered in your 'Daily Sessions', but allows you to revisit similar content to reinforce the techniques you've been learning.

We also provide a number of sleep tools; such as sleep stories, sleep mindfulness and sleep preparation sessions which should help you get a better and more restful sleep over time.

If you need any help or support using the app, just drop us a message and we'll get back to you as soon as we can,
